Mrs. Weld is an amazing teacher. I recommend her to everyone. She is so passionate which makes me want to come to class and discuss with her. She grades very easily, but there is a lot of reading in each class. You don't have to read because she goes over itNo tests or quizzes, but attendance paper is passed around.

A super super nice and intelligent professor and an actually enjoyable class. A good amount of reading is assigned but she goes over it in lecture for understanding.

Professor Weld is a great teacher. I took Slavic 124 and Slavic 117I with her. She is very clear and a fair grader. I highly recommend taking any Slavic or Comparative Literature courses that she offers. You learn a lot of useful information in class!

The assignments are pretty easy for a literature class, would recommend. The only issue is there is lots of reading, but I would imagine it's less than most literature classes on campus.

Professor Weld has to be the best professor I've had so far during my time at UCSB. I've never had a professor give such clear feedback on my writing and because of that, I feel as though my writing has improved significantly. I have no idea how I ended up with an A because I got Bs on all the essays, but I guess participating really helped.

Very knowledgeable about the subject. The discussion in class was very open-ended and quite interesting. There are a lot of interesting readings. There was a fun/creative assignment. Very nice person and easy/doable class.
