The exams are difficult. Reading helps but is not enough. You MUST go to lecture. Professor Lee is an expert. He knows his stuff really well. Impressive how he has all this information in his head and barely anything written on the slides he shows. Information was fascinating.
Excellent teacher. Very helpful. Clear lecture style, interested in the big picture not meaningless details. He has not one trace of arrogance which is refreshing in a professor.
Well I just took this dude's midterm, and it was **** hard. If you did ALL the reading and THOROUGHLY understood it, you might get an A. Multiple choice were hard but fair, some of the short answers were absolutely ridiculous. Interesting teacher, nice guy, but **** that midterm. Just wow.
Prof. Lee is very knowledgable in the subject of Bronze Age Greece. Keep up with the readings and use his study guides for tests. He is open to questions and uses powerpoint for all lectures.
Great teacher, very helpful, offers extra credit, gives you a study guide, which the test has exactly same stuff on it, gives you mini essays, which only needs to be 250-500 words, I would def. recommend any one to take any of his classes, one of the best teachers at UCSB
Class was a bit boring at times, but Prof Lee is the best, his lectures are very clear and organized, his tests are very straightforward and fair, and there's not a massive amount of reading which is nice. He really made the best out of a sort of boring subject. Def. take any class with Lee!!!
Professor was clear and precise. Lectures were will organized and included handouts. One of my favorite classes, one of my favority professors.
I've never enjoyed a history class until I had Prof Lee. His lectures are really organized, but not boringly so, and he tells you exactly what you need to know before each test. My TA rocked too, which might have just been my luck, but I think Lee gave a lot of guidance to his TAs, which I'm finding is rare.
Great teacher really fair grader who outlines all the midterms and final for you so you know exactly what to study. Helps out a lot if you ask for it and is very knowelegable on his subject matter. makes lecture interesting.
Amazing professor, one of the best i have had here so far. He is really interested in the subject matter and he passes on that enthusiasm to the students. Plus his specialty is ancient warfare so that makes it a cooler class for me because i am also interested in that area. Two short papers, midterm and final are most of your grade.
prof lee was a very good professor... his lectures were clear and interesting, tests were very fair.. i would def. take another class with him
He's a good lecturer and has good powerpoints; not too hard of a class.
Professor Lee is a very good professor. His power points make the lectures more interesting and he is enthusiastic about the material. Also, he was very helpful when I went to his office hours to have one of my essays reviewed. He read the entire essay and wrote a lot of useful comments on it.
Lee is a solid professor. The course material for 4A is fairly interesting and the lectures were as such. He's pretty young and seems to be rather enthusiastic about the material. the tests were reasonable although the TA's graded rather rigorous on the papers
I personally love History, but I'd heard horror stories about 4A. Prof Lee, however, was awesome. His lectures were absolutely fascinating, and his study guides were a big help for the midterm and final. I regret not going to his office hours, but he did seem a bit intimidating. In conclusion, he's one of the best professors I've had.
prof. Lee is very clear about all the themes in his History class, making it easy to understand the important events and do well in his exams.
I like history alot, and i found him to be very unorganized, unclear, and BORING. yeah, he gives you all the questions to the test, but his lectures lack substace, thus making it hard to understand the course.
Seems like his class goes on forever, but you learn a lot.
A REALLY KNOWLEDGABLE GUY. HE KNOWS HIS STUFF AND GIVES CLEAR CONCISE LECTURES. HIS EXAMS ARE FAIR, NOT TO HARD NOT TO EASY.
Prof Lee is a very nice guy and always willing to help his students.

The class was a bit challenging but the questions he asked for the midterm and final were very thought-provoking. He is very friendly and appreciates it when you stop by his office hours.
Prof Lee is awesome. He's passionate and interesting to listen to. Fair tests and grading. Just do the reading and go to lecture and its all good- Lee really tries to help you do well and is very willing to help.
Lee's lectures are always terrific, but they have little to do with the primary source readings that inform the paper assignments and exams. Discussion section becomes the primary refuge for students hoping to do well. Papers are expected to meet stringent but ultimately just standards.
