Comment:
- Very kind but one of the worst professors I've ever had - Instructions for assignments are SO confusing/very poorly written and she's not great at clarifying - Very slow to answer emails - Extremely slow marking and only vague feedback provided - Classes had very little structure + were unorganized - She goes on a lot of irrelevant tangents

ummm. i've tried emailing this woman multiple times and i'm pretty sure she has students blocked. you can only reach out to t/a's. She goes on a lot of tangents, which is frustrating when you're in a 3 hour lecture and want to get it over with. ALOT of reading, a lot of it boring but if you do the work you'll get a good mark. She's quirky but nice.

Comment:
Vague descriptions of papers make it hard to meet the expectation of the prof and TAs . Not allowed to message the prof for help on email. Has never said anything positive in my assignment feedback which stresses me out more. Feels like they fake their understanding of the pressure students are under.

Dr. Sneyd is fantastic! She picks really interesting topics and is very passionate about the subject. There are lots of readings (some are a bit boring) but, most are not bad at all! She is really open to students' thoughts and ideas. If you read and go to class you'll do well!

they are passionate about what they teach, suggested readings are very interesting and guest lecturers were incredible! when agreeing with her, very supportive and helpful - got impatient when differences of opinions occurred and too often when condescending when clarification was sought. *too theoretical for a field school, class would be better

she's great, very passionate. However, she does not take into consideration that for a 3 hour night class we may not be as enthusiastic as her. Wants deep discussions but gives little outline or starting points for them to start. Nice gal, gives lots of attendance marks

Sneyd was one of my favourite profs this semester. She maintained a great balance between being a friend and remaining professional. I have never had a prof who cares so much about what she is teaching, her passion and knowledge made learning enjoyable. I truly believe that being in her classes have set me up for success when continuing my degree

Dr. Sneyd does a great job incorporating her research, media, and contemporary news into her lectures. She is always enthusiastic and willing to help. I love how she calls people out for leaving early. Her assignments and grading expectations are always fair. Overall great person.
