I love Prof Snyder. He is by far one of the most caring professors I've ever had at my four years at UCSB.

Teaches very well and is very helpful. He tells you his analysis of the text in class, which is pretty much all you need to know. However, your writing has to be clear and detailed, as he looks for many specific things. He is a kind person who is very willing to help you in office hours.

Snyder is one of the coolest professors in the Italian department. I highly recommend his classes!

awesome teacher. Tough class.

I love Professore Snyder! He is a fantastic teacher and both classes I have had with him have been very interesting and I learned a lot. Neither class was excessively easy, but that was to be expected from an upper division Italian class. Plus he is super helpful and seems like he genuinely likes us!

Prof. Snyder was one of the top professors I had. I love all things Italian and especially loved his class on Dante's Inferno. I took his Comp Lit 114X class (Children's Lit) during a summer session as well. I like how he lectures. He is always willing to help and even wrote my letter of recommendation to complete my Italian Studies major. Thanks!
