Reviews of professor Bridget Swanson

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Bridget is really nice and easy to reach outside of class, I really recommend showing up at least -- she wants you to do the readings too, but I never did and did fine. Her study guides for the exams are great, she has clear expectations & I found the films we watched varied & interesting. Fun class that was easy to feel confident and prepared in.

Made 002 one of my more fun classes! Explains content clearly and makes sure lectures are lively. Be prepared to participate, but she's a light grader and gives good feedback.

I love Professor Swanson!! So smart and a really good teacher. She's always very helpful if you're having an issue with an essay or the reading or anything really. I always looked forward to this class. She's exactly what UVM's German department needs, my favorite German prof at UVM for sure!

Bridget is the BEST! Her class is very easy if you show up and pay attention, and she makes very detailed study guides that will help you out so much when you go to study for the exams. In class, she usually discusses the readings so you could probably manage a C if you don't show up, but the class is simple and an Easy A if you just show up!

Bridget is super amazing, one of my favorite lecturers at UVM. It's not always easy to find professors that are so willing to make time for their students outside of class, but I know I can go to her with any problem or question. UVM is lucky to have her, that's for sure.

Bridget is a super nice and friendly instructor, and teaches the material in an easy to understand but engaging way. She's also very transparent about what she wants from you in class, so I'd say if you take good notes in class and find decent quizlets, you should be able to handle the exams pretty well even if you don't do the reading.
