Reviews of professor Vanessa Harwood

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Phonetics is a tougher class because ear training is subjective. You have to come to class to hear her lecture and her idiolect. She does give questions not on the slides, lecture only. IPA is like a language class you have to hear and speak the sounds in order to learn them. MORE THAN ONCE A WEEK. She is an awesome and nice professor.

Vanessa was a great professor and always happy to help with any questions. Weekly transcription quizzes, online assignments and tests. Always gives a clear outline of what you should expect to know on the test.

Absolutely amazing! Cares greatly about her students and wants you to succeed. Homework and tests are weighted the same which helps relieve some stress. Some test questions apply to real life situations and you have to really understand the material to do well. She is very understanding and accommodating so never be scared to ask her questions :)

Dr. Harwood is one of my favorite CMD professors ive had so far. Took her communication processes class last spring and she was easily accessible outside class time, very straight forward in lectures, and is so understanding. Really cares about her students doing well and is so approachable. You're blessed if you have her. Love DH!!!!!

She is the best!!! She is so nice to every student and only wants students to succeed. The subject matter in this class is EXTREMELY easy as it is literally grammar and she goes over any confusing or misunderstood points. Definitely take this with her for an easy A!
