This class was about Economic European history. The subject wasn't that great but he got a good point across. He repeats stuff so he can get it in your head. The midterm was ok, it was multiple choice true/false, and the final was ok but took a while to do. The final was exaclty like the StudyGuide he gave us, even though thats cool, you still have to remember a lot of the stuff he taught. Very cool professor, he seems like he gets irritated with questions, but in reality he encourages it. So a pretty good professor. Worth taking, also the he looks at attendance when grading, so its important to attend class.

Winter 2024 - Professor Ghervas is an excellent instructor. She welcomes questions and always makes time to meet with students. Her lectures are both informative and engaging, and I always felt like I had learned a lot after leaving class. Many professors do not have innovative approaches to the courses they are teaching, but Professor Ghervas is an exception. She has published extensive research on many of the topics covered in this course, and she is very knowledgeable on the latest perspectives and interpretations of the material we studied. The assignments were manageable, straightforward, and always relevant to what we learned in lecture. If you have any interest in European history, or even international relations, you should take this class. Overall, I highly recommend Professor Ghervas, and I thoroughly enjoyed taking History 132 with her.
