Reviews of professor Richard Godden

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I do not like medieval lit, but Prof Godden is a gem. Participation encouraged not required, easy grader
Caring- gave me an extension when he could tell I was stressed, reached out when I miss a quiz deadline to see if I was okay. Genuinely cares for his students and wants them to succeed. Signed up for his class next semester

I adore Godden. I've taken his classes several times, and they always end up being the highlight of my semester. He's incredibly knowledgeable about every aspect of medieval literature. There is a lot of reading in his class, but the sources are typically engaging and interesting to discuss. Also, his final project are always fun.

He's a super nice and understanding professor, he gives good feedback and is very helpful but there's a lot of reading and he doesnt grade anything until midterms and finals. Otherwise I loved his class and his discussions.

Dr. Godden is great. He is super caring, funny, and genuinely cares about his students. I am not a fan of Arthurian Literature by any means, but he made it bearable. The class is very reading heavy so keep that in mind. Definitely can be challenging at times, but he's a great guy.

Great teacher! Go to class and answer at least a question or 2 a day. Although the lectures are long he tries to make them interesting and he's funny. The 2 papers and research project have the most weight so go to him to ask for advice and questions. You arent graded on the majority of the info you read, you pick which works you write about.

Loved Professor Godden! The class is very reading-heavy and the lectures are important to attend, but he is a very lenient grader and just a very pleasant person. He's genuinely concerned about his students and very passionate about what he does.

I absolutely loved Dr. Godden's class! While I'm not a fan of medieval literature, Dr. Godden made this class really enjoyable. He's really witty and is more than willing to help his students however he can. There are three short papers, 10 "notice and focus" assignments (aka quizzes) and a final. He gives great feedback as well! Take his class!
