Comment:
Tara Welch is an amazing professor! Her lectures were very engaging and interesting! You should definitely do the reading assignments and papers because the tests are difficult if you did not do them. Attendance is not mandatory, but her lectures are really fun and help with the tests, so I would recommend that you go to class.

Tara is an amazing professor. Her lectures are super interesting and she really cares about all of her students. And she really does try to learn students' names. In terms of the class, it's pretty easy. Do the readings and the reading exercises and you can easily get an A. Definitely would recommend this class.

Tara is incredibly kind and really passionate about her subject. Her lectures are awesome and easy to follow. There's a lot of required reading, but I skimmed through some sections when I was busy and still maintained an A. She really works with you if you're struggling and is very accommodating. She genuinely cares about her students.

I love love Tara!!! By far one of the best teachers I've ever had my entire life. She learns everyone's name which is surprising since there's probably over 120 people in the lecture! She genuinely cares how you do and is very interested in the subject itself which reflects how she teaches. Her lectures are amazing and it will leave you interested!

Comment:
Tara is the reason I am a Classics major. After taking CLSX148 with her, I fell in love with the literature. She is funny, sometimes a bit raunchy, and can always find a way for you to relate to the text, whether it's Oedipus Rex or Metamorphoses. She is a gem of a professor and always has snacks in her office if you come by.

Tara is an amazing professor, she keeps the lectures going at a really good pace, there is rarely a boring moment, if you raise your hand she learns your name. The short responses she has you write are very easy. The quizzes you can take with the book right in front of you.

Comment:
She was one of my best professors. Makes the lectures very interactive and tries to learn everyone's name (which says a lot in a class with 200+ people). There are many readings, but you can get away with not actually reading them -- SparkNotes helped a lot-- or finding them at the library.

I love the teacher. You need to read the books that are assigned to pass but the reading is fairly easy. As long as you study you will pass.

Tara is an amazing Professor. It is obvious she loves everything about the course. She is kind and will work with you if you need it but do not try and fool her because it will not work. There is a lot of reading but you don't need to do all of it. I recommend going to class because it makes tests and essays way easier.

This class is the best class I have taken at KU and I am a senior. Dr. Welch is incredibly knowledgeable and so much fun! My only wish is I have taken it earlier and I could take more class with her! I leave every lecture having learned something very valuable and fun. I just love her!!

Dr. Welch is a fantastic professor. She gives enjoyable lectures, and is always willing to help students out. As with all Latin courses, you need to be prepared to work and read, but in the end, it is really rewarding.

Will learn your name regardless of your class size,really cares. Lectures are essential to doing well on tests. Pretty heavy reading and sometimes difficult, but as long as you pay attention in the lecture everything is made very clear and a lot of test questions and hints directly for tests are given in class. Great enthusiasm and teaching style.

She really cares about each of her students, regardless of how many she has! She really knows her mythology, and she does a great job at explaining the stories. Also, SHE GIVES TONS OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR EXTRA CREDIT! The material can be difficult at times, but if you attend lectures regularly and stay on top of things, you'll do just fine.

Tara is a great professor. She is extremely nice and is helpful to students. My only criticism would be that because she taught the honors section on discussion days, the class went at a faster pace than it should have.

By far the best teacher I have had in college. She was a Rhodes Scholar, speaks 7 languages, and is an all-around brilliant and kind person. There is an online version of CLSX 148, but you will gratefully look back on this class and the material you learned.

Professor Welch is a very fun and engaging lecturer, very easy to listen to and she tries to get student participation and discussion even in a huge lecture hall. Reading and attendance are necessary but fun anyway. Tests are fairly difficult, there were two short papers and two analysis worksheets. Somewhat challenging but very fun class! Take it!

The class is extremely interesting, but she is a very tough grader. After this semester, I wouldn't take this class again.
