Reviews of professor Jennifer Wells

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Wells is a great professor and always does her best to ask burning questions that we wonder about in the course. She always addresses her students in a respectful way and gives clear criteria as to what it needed on the assignments and projects. She was really nice and I respect her a lot. Highly recommend her and the course in general.

Took this class because I needed one credit hour, but it was fun and interesting. Class participation via discussion boards heavily emphasized, other than that there is 1 quiz for each module and 1 final assignment (narrated Power Point presentation) due the last day of class. Everything was based on one book and a few videos.

I started the semester very unsure of how this class was going to go, jump to the end of the semester and it has turned into one of my favorite courses I have taken at GW. I highly, highly recommend Dr. Wells. She makes the lectures fun and engaging and is very accessible for feedback on assignments. Would definitely take her class again!

Prof. Wells is the best professor at GW, and this class was very interesting. Tons of reading, but its all manageable and the weekly papers are not hard. If you do the readings you can participate in class discussions easily, which are super engaging. I would take ANY class Wells teaches, its so worth it to have her as a professor.

I took Professor Wells for my History Major Intro Seminar. She was extremely knowledgeable about the subject but allowed students to participate in active discussion. The seminar was graded on 10 short (3 pg) essays due weekly, participation, a short presentation, and 5 pg essay on a news article. There were a lot of readings (200+ pgs per week).

Professor Wells is amazing! She is incredibly knowledgeable and an excellent lecturer. The class itself is interesting, engaging, and easy enough to manage. Her grading criteria is lacking, and sometimes it's unclear what exactly she wants out of assignments. However, if you show up and show you care, she is eager to help. Would highly recommend!

I've taken two classes with Profs. Wells and she's one of the absolutely best professors that I've ever had. Definitely a tough grader and she makes you work but it's beyond rewarding. Be sure to do the reading and show up for office hours. On assignments she's really helpful and makes it clear what she wants. Definitely take a class with her!

I've taken multiple classes with Dr. Wells, and she is by far my favorite professor at GW. She is so passionate about the subjects she teaches and SO knowledgeable. She is truly an inspiration to everyone she teaches. She is also so helpful if you reach out. If you are interested in history, take her class. You won't regret it.
