Reviews of professor David Crew

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Dr. Crew is so great  he never fails to brighten up some really dark subject matter. The material he presents is always engaging! He cares more that you learn than trying to grade you harshly (he is rewarding as long as you put in the effort!). Such a sweet man, I've loved having him!

He is one of the best professors I have ever had! Seriously. Take him. He is very understanding, he enjoys seeing you work hard and think, he is kind of lax, and he is great at conveying information. Will take him again!

Dr. Crew is the best professor I've had. His lectures seem somewhat loose in structure, however, his mastery of the subject makes this ad-lib style a perk. He tells the story of German history with such eloquence the ninety-minute section flies by. Additionally, his humor gives balance to what tends to be a bleak subject. Definitely take his class.

Crew was the best!! I took his European Espionage class and loved it so much. It was so interesting and he was so engaging. Everyone take him

Really interesting content. Dr. Crew is a good lecturer who knows a ton about European history. His organization skills aren't amazing, but he's passionate and smart. I felt like he really read all my assignments. the only issue with this class was the final--a 10 person group project. That was hard to manage, but Crew was understanding.

Awesome professor. Never realized how much we can learn from our peers before taking him. Values group discussions and group work which helps a lot when learning about certain events in history. Will take again for sure!!

Dr. Crew is a wonderful professor. His lectures will take up the entire 75 minutes, but if you genuinely have an interest in the subject, you will enjoy every minute. I know I did. Others did mess around in class though so please only take if you are interested. Dr. Crew is very nice and accommodating. He also gives great feedback on rough drafts.

Dr. Crew is excellent. His classes are entirely lectures but his flawless command of every aspect of German history makes a 90 minute lecture interesting and engaging. He is also incredibly kind, he is a fairly forgiving grader and will tell you exactly what to change to get an A if you give him rough drafts. His dry sense of humor is also a plus.

Dr. Crew was an AMAZING professor. He teaches German History in a way that brings everyone into the discussion. There are relatively few assignments that are pretty easy, just make sure to talk with him if you are unsure about anything. By far this class and this professor was one of the best I've had at UT.
