Professor Reder has a clear and infectious enthusiasm for teaching which makes her classes extremely positive, informative, and relaxed. We learn about relevant topics, interesting stories, and even watch movies here and there. A lot of grammar is learned in this class, but it is in a fun, engaging, and conversationally-relevant manner.

One of the best professor's I've ever had. Many students prioritize other coursework since German is rarely their major, and as unfortunate as that reality is, Evelyn is super patient and understanding so long as you put in the effort to learn the material and participate in class. You will no doubt have a wonderful time in her class!

Evelyn is so sweet and nice and she has a great sense of humor. Because of her I fell in love with the German language and culture. During the quarter, you'll do a couple of group projects, but no stressful final exam!

Evelyn is my favorite teacher at ucsb so far. Participation is important, however she creates a very comfortable and open environment. She is patient, funny, and she really cares about her students. She also teaches some aspects of Austrian culture and their dialect. The workload was not bad, a worksheet was due by the next day of instruction.

Evelyn is wonderful. I enjoyed her class so much. She's caring, funny and patient and she really wants everyone to succeed. She is flexible and she will always help you outside of class if you have questions. Plus, no expensive textbook!

Best professor I've had at UCSB. Can tell she really cares about her students. Wish she taught more than just German because I would take those classes of hers too. Definitely recommend.

Evelyn is an incredible professor. She makes learning a language fun and does a great job of using non-traditional methods to make the class changing. Take German and get her for every class possible.

Such an awesome and passionate professor. She makes learning German really fun and not intimidating. She brings such a positive energy in the class, which motivates you to participate. There is a lot of participation, speaking to other students for German activities, and speaking out loud in class, but you'll feel comfortable really quick!

I love Evelyn, I took German 1 with her as well. I have never loved a professor more! She is kind and enthusiastic about the subject and grades very fairly.

Evelyn is incredibly caring and great at her job. She works very hard to ensure her students are learning and loves when her students feel at home in the class. She creates the assignments and such for all the classes, and so she is always present in the German department.

if you want to learn a foreign language . I highly recommend you to choose her and German. She is the best teacher i have ever met

Evelyn is amazing.

Evelyn is very passionate and loves to teach. You will get as much out of the class as you put into it. You are expected to show up every day, but other than that it's a breeze. Participation is the most important factor, just show that you are trying. I took German 1 and German 2 with Evelyn and I'm continuing onto German 3 next quarter.

Evelyn is amazing. She is great for learning German and she isn't afraid to slow down material or review with students outside of class. She is great to talk to, and the class itself is fun what with the board games and buzzer games. Lots of games, but plenty of review and vocabulary. She is Austrian, so you will learn Austrian dialect a tad bit.

Evelyn ist wunderbar! Ich liebe Deutsch.

Evelyn is amazing. Had her for all three quarters of German and I learned so much. She really cares about her students and wants everyone to succeed.
