Comment:
Prof Todd is by far the BEST professor at UofT, she is the reason that I continued my studies in history, went on to do a MA and am now doing a PhD. She is smart, funny and really knows her stuff. She is ALWAYS willing to help students, and is the best teacher I have ever had!

Comment:
As others have mentioned her lecturing is very slow and she pauses every 4 words. She does use the word "ummm" a lot, which is tolerable for a bit but irritating after a while. Seems approachable but actually isn't too helpful or enthusiastic. BUT her marking is very very easy, so if you're looking for an easy A take her class.

Comment:
I really did not like this class. It was the one class I was looking forward too, but I found Todd and extremely annoying lecturer, and her persistant use of the word 'um' grained on my nerve. This is the only class I have ever dropped, and it made me change my mind about taking history in the future. Not a great experience!

I love her as a teacher, she is very helpful and easy to approach and wants her students to do well. Only thing, the assn's in this class werent my fave, i prefer to just write research papers and thats not what you get in her classes. I must say however, that i enjoyed her women (his245) class better

Comment:
Her lectures are very interesting, best lecturer of the year. She's very fair as well. I did an assignment completely wrong and ended with a C+ and she even suggested I appeal the mark. One caution is that if you rely on participation marks and short answer questions for marks and you're not an essay person this isn't the course for you.

By far the best prof at UofT, smart, funny, and caring. The only prof at UofT to actually understand the predicament of students in university. Any student in the humanities should take her course.

This class is packed with historical gems! Cross-dressing pirates, early lesbians in top hats who entertain prominent figures in their gothic cottage, radical suffragettes stuffing jam into mail boxes...it's all there! B. Todd is an extraordinary lady always dressed in an assorted collection of loose-fitting blazers. She is my hero!
