Bro. "D" works well with his students. His teaching style is newer than new. Bro. is fair and treats all students the same. Hey bro why all the work...the syllabus is long....yea you do get your monies worth. See ya torvan.
BRO D. is a fair proff. that teaches well. I like how he lets us out of class early everyday.
He is the best teacher ever. ya heard me! I like him. The class is helpful, but it is boring. He makes it exciting, but the material is boring and that is whyI didn't want to take the class.

Bro. D is awesome!
Bro. "D" is the man. I have bro this semester and he is great. Makes u laugh during stressful times. Very down to earth guy. luv those pizza parties...hey bro where's the mountain dew?
Bro D thinks he's one of us, but he's not. His classes are pretty boring. What's up with the haircut?
A nice brother who is very helpful and goes out of his way for students. Down to earth and really decent guy. Was a great help to me when I was having problems.
Bro. you need to get back into the classroom and out of the office at campus ministry. Lets go Bro D. We miss you class and teaching style. New a dull monent in Bro D's class...something always new and different. We miss ya Bro D.
Bro. D is my advisor this year and I really thank him for the help and advise this semester. Bro was there when I needed him just like a brother. Bro D is cool.

Bro. D was very supportive of me this past year at SFU. Brother went out of his way to help me with appointments and just hang around. I will miss the bro but I will always remember his kindness to me. A friend for life.
AN EXCELLENT PROFF. YOU CAN TELL HE IS A LOVES TEACHING AND WORKING WITH THE STUDENTS. GIVES ORAL EXAMS AND THINKS OUT OF THE BOX. WILL TAKE HIM AGAIN!
Brother Denis has a relaxing teaching style. He is very clear with his lectures and uses different techniques to keep your interest. The class is enjoyable, and the time flies by! I would like to take another class with him. Cool!
Brother D is a very good teacher. His classes are interesting and he is always prepared for class. There are a lot of readings but they are all up to date with teaching and we discuss the redings in class. He is an informal teacher and makes you feel like a winner.
Brother Dennis is very up to date on current issues in education and has a wealth of knowledge and experiences which he shares with the class. Very kind, understanding, and flexible in order to meet our needs and desires. Would take him for any course that he teaches. You know he loves teaching!
Prof Snyder was not only passionate about the subject, but he worked hard to instill this same passion in the students he taught. I thoroughly enjoyed his class and our discussions. He helped to shed light on a topic that is not often talked about. The class format - roundtable discussion based - encouraged both collaboration and dialogue
Dude is great.
He's amazing.
Great professor and has a funny sense of humor. The class is relaxed and moves along quickly. New ideas in teaching helps with his sense of creativity. Only a few papers but no big deal. He has oral exams for midterm and final. Gives you the study questions three weeks in advance...he's a great teacher...will take him again!
He can teach! Best prof this year at SFU. Actually has a heart and listens to you.
Before taking this course I thought what another course required by St. Francis! My major is PT and I thought this was a waste of my time. Brother Snyder made this class interesting and enjoyable. He is a whiz with the lessons and activities. His handwriting is beautiful and he told us all...thank an ssj whatever that is? I will take him again!
Now you can tell this brother is a teacher. His approach to teaching is very different and highly interactive with class participation. A few papers but he corrects your writing and english but looks for content and research. You can tell he taught english and is a wiz with language. Take him again, for sure!
This guy had a prayer at every class. I thought well this bro would be easy but I gots a D. He reads every words on the paper and then he uses green ink to mark the papers. Two much on english grade on papers. He is still a nice guy but I thought he would give me a broke. I like his accent reel class.
Bro D is a great proff. Gives review sheets in class and then goes over each question. This makes for a great study guide. He has classroom experience for many years in the inner city schools: Philadelphia and Trenton. Our mid term is an oral exam. Loves to give up to date articles in edu. He is a master of creativity. Take him again for sure.
Mid term was great. Will take him again hopefully. Prepares classes very well and is super organized. Study guides are extremely helpful. Cool dude for a brother not like the rest of em!
bro d gave a great mid term oral exam. we meet in café guibbo and had a discussion about styles of communication. the dude even bought me a smoothie. papers are not hard but he does correct your mistakes and even finds hidden mistakes, he is a fair prof and respects individual opinions.
I just love this class. No B.S.! Interesting and realistic discussions in class. Midterm and final exams are oral. The midterm exam was not bad and bro acts like a coach. I would take bro again. he is the only pro that i had at sfu who begins class with a prayer...a little corny but i like it. he should be pope.
Words cannot describe the brother!
This guy makes life easy and learning fun. Every class a good laugh. As he always states: "Hope Is Not A Course Of Action." He took me to Gubbio and over coffee discuss how to improve my paper from a D to a B. Cool!
Dude is good.
He is a really laid-back teacher for this course. As long as you show up and act like you care, everything will be okay. The stuff you learn about is sometimes interesting.
Brother Denis is a good teacher. I had a mid tern test that was an oral exam. I felt relaxed and discussed the questions with bro d. I like his class and he keeps the class moving. Would take again if he was teaching in my major. He is super organize and enjoys a good laugh. Luv the rap music.
good teacher and keeps the class moving. power points are really cool and he will put them on bb. has a variety of experiences in the classroom with all grade levels. a must have at sfu.
GREAT PROF AND FRIENDLY. COOL
Dr. Snyder is probably the best, or one of the best, teachers I have ever had. He cares very deeply for his students. He really tries to connect subject matter with students' lives, and his dedication really shows. The classes are more like discussions than lectures, and it was one of the most enjoyable courses. Midterm and finals are oral exams.
did good on the mid term and he gives you an extensive study guide. he is kind of radical with his philosophy on education. very progressive with the methods teachers should use in the classroom. my cousin had him in high school (Levittown PA) and at that time he was as tough as nails in the classroom. yeah, he is cool.
LOVE HIM!! He is the greatest! He makes learning easy. I really hope I can take him again for another course. Take him if you can!
One of the easiest and more interesting classes I have taken at SFU. Brother Dennis is a Saint.
Brother prof is a good teacher. His motto is "Shake Up The Chalk Dust" when you are teachers in the classroom. Very very organized and remembers everything you say. Facial expressions are a dead give a way on his true feelings especially when he returns your papers. Fantastic stories about classroom life in the city schools. Wise but cool!
Prof Brother D is super organized and topics are very clear. He is into power points and will post them on black board for you. He has a relax style in the classroom and enjoys telling stories about his classroom experiences. in the inner city schools. He's cool and I would take his class again. Called me on the phone to see how I was feeling.
Brother Denis is always prepared for class and has interesting power point presentations which he will discuss in class. He enjoys hearing what the students have to say and likes discussions in class. He has a great deal of experience in the classroom which lends to his practical ideas for teaching. He treats you like an adult and that is cool.
The bro is cool. One of my favorite classes.
Brother Denis is always prepared for class and expects the students to model this skill. All of his classes and assignments are mapped out on the syllabus he gives us the first day of class so you know what to expect on day one. He is a peaceful person who respects his students. At the end of exams he had a pizza party for the class. No. 1 bro.
Easiest class ever
Just received my midterm grade after taking my oral midterm exam. The midterm was just like the prof stated in class with a study guide. No surprises on this exam. I have a good grade going into the last part of the semester. Prof Snyder is a realistic teacher with realistic goals for his students. I hope to take a class with him again at SFU.
I did well on my mid term oral exam. Enjoy the class because the prof is relaxed and always prepared. I would like to take another class with brother dennis. Likes to tell stories about his teaching experience especially in the inner city schools. Get ready to share you feeling and thoughts in this class.
Good prof and I would take him again in another course. He has a relax style in class which makes the move on. He is not big on giving tests but expects you to participate in the class. He has a great deal of knowledge about communications which the course is about. No big deal preparing for the final because he is very helpful if try.
Bro D made this class very interesting with the dry material offered in the textbook. Bro D has a great deal of teaching experience at all levels and all situations. He is hilarious with his stories and he is a fantastic story teller. No tests but he does give papers and an oral exam which is not bad at all. He treats us like teachers.
I just finished my education course with brother dennis. The course included working with children who had autism. Brother gave us excellent ideas for working with the children. I felt at ease doing the lesson activities which brother supervised. I could see patience and care brother had for these children. He is a genuine teacher at heart!
Br D is a good teacher. I just had my first quiz and I got an A+. He covers all the questions in class and he puts them on a study guide. He is the first teacher that I think really cares about the students. I want to take his class again.
Prof Denis is a great teacher. He has plenty of experience in the classroom and he has taught elementary school and high school. His stories are interesting and hilarious. I really enjoy this class and would take this prof again in the future. I like his motto: Shake up the chalk dust.
great teacher but likes to give out papers to read. I feel sorry for the poor trees come on bro, sixteen pages is a waste of paper. he does go over the readings in class and he knows his stuff. if you have a article to read you better know it. I think I would take him again
Brother Denis is realistic with his class lectures. He does everything with powerpoint. Every chapter we read he has a powerpoint even with the handouts for extra reading. Brother Denis has the real word of teaching and lets us know what to expect in the classroom. I would take him again because he is a caring teacher and knows the classroom.
Great realistic teacher - why? Today in class we had a Halloween party. He had Halloween cup cakes, apple cider, pretzels, and bags full of candy bars. He also had Halloween music. He said to us, when you are out in the field with your own classroom, this is what you do as teachers for your students. That's real. He is an excellent role model.
Brother Dennis is literally a bro. He's so awesome. He brings snacks to class. What more could you want? It's super easy to pass. He makes you think a little bit but not that much. Love him. Bless up.
Brother D is a great teacher inside and outside of class. His classes are interesting with real life teaching situations. He made me think if I really want to be a teacher. Our last class was held at a pizza place in town and he picked up the tab. Would take him again just for the stories.
Love this guy. Now I know what a teacher is all about. He is a modern day Mary Poppins who really cares about you. I am taking another class with this prof. He made me think about so many things and now I question why I do some of the things I do. He took the class out for lunch at a pizza resturant.
This brother has a big heart but he has a small ego. This is one class that I looked forward to twice a week. He has an up-beat personality that is contageous in his class and he is honest with his assessment about the real world of teaching. I gained eight pounds from all the treats he gives out in class. Will take again for sure.
In high school lit class we had to read Good Bye Mr. Chips by James Hilton. Brother Denis is just like this character in the book - Mr. Chips. I realized this when the bro sat with me for an hour going over my paper and treating me to coffee and friendship. I will never forget bro d.
Brother Denis defines the term TEACHER. In our class he practices what he preaches. He actually role models what a teacher should be to all students! When he returns an assignment there is a grade with a sticker and a positive remark. Valentine, St. Pat, Easter all were celebrated with something special. Take his class again for sure.
Unique in his views and approaches and makes you think abou educational issues on a large scale. Pushes your comfort zone and why you want to be a teacher. Real life classroom stories that are not in a text book. Genuinely cares about you as a person and your future success. Highly recommend would take again. Super organized but not up tight!
Brother Dennis is a great prof. There is a balance with his class with power points, reading, group discussion and projects. I like his oral exams which are not stressful at all. He will give you a study guide for everything! He is always avaliable to talk especially with coffee. He is a caring teacher who help me out several times. Good guy.
Great professor. Definitely takes time and effort in his work. He has so many resources that he lets students use so they can do well. He will always answer any questions you have. Oral exams are challenging but lectures are always funny and entertaining. I would definitely recommend taking his class. Best prof I had so far at Francis! Cool!
He applied topics in the book to real life situations so it becomes easier for students to understand. He goes out of his way to help students and will give you his cell number. I called him at 11:30 pm with a question and he joked he was watching Jimmy Fallon, no problem, I'm awake. Great guy who really cares for his students.
This is the third class I had w/bro. d. and I would take him again. He is a great teacher who cares about all the students in his class. He is the G.O.A.T. Never a dull moment in his class and his stories will have you rolling in the room especially when he was a H.S. teacher in the inner city schools. Cool and kind to all and he feeds us too!
My friend told me to take bro d and I would not be disappointed with the class. She was right and the class was cool and I really enjoyed going to this class. The prof made the class interesting and he was always in a good mood. He would greet us at the door every class. The bro is a pro and he is what St Francis is all about. Thanks bor d
I had Brother Denis before in another education class. He is a great teacher and I feel so comfortable in his class! He is a real gem! I enjoy his sense of humor and his teaching experience is exceptional in the real world!
What can I say after the mid term today. The Bro is a Pro. Love the guy!
Mid term grade B. Interesting topics in class especially his teaching experience with inter city schools. I know he is a caring prof because he gave me a break when I really needed 1. Yeah I would take the bro. again he is a good teacher.
Bro D is the man! I like this class and would take the bro again. The discussion in class is real.
Bro. D is a fantastic professor. He is very engaging! He is incredibly organized which really helped to optimize my learning when I was home studying. He is also a very kind and warm person. He truly cares about what he teaches and the students. I would take his class again just to hear his stories about teaching in the inter city schools. Cool!
Take the class with Bro. D. Interesting and treats you like an adult.
Good teacher and I would take this prof again. made class interesting. Nice guy and he gave us a pizza party. Cool.
Bro d is a good teacher. the class is not difficult because bro knows how to teach. he is a kind dude who understands the student. yeah I will take him again.
Great Prof and this is one class I enjoyed.
Bro d, cool and easy going. Has a good sense of understanding student needs. I would take his class again. I had a good learning experience in his class.
Quite simply the most student focused professor I have ever had the privilege to learn from. The bro cares about his students greatly and wants to help them in any way possible. Lectures are real life stories he has experienced in the inner city classroom. I would take any class bro teaches. To end the semester he gave us a pizza party.
the reviews say it all. good guy and man does he have the stories. hope to take again in the spring. thanks bro d. you should write that book.
Great spinner of stories that connects theory into practice especially with teaching. I would take him again because he is able to transmit info that is understandable. Super organized just check out his syllabus for the semester. I wanted to go to his class and for me that says a lot.
Brother Dennis is probably the most chill professor I have ever taken. But that doesn't mean that he wasn't able to get a lot of information across to his students. He made class an enjoyable experience for all. He kept it interesting by telling stories and making jokes on a daily basis. Definitely take him if you get the chance!
Thanks Bro d you made class fun and I will take you again if I can.
AWESOME WHAT MORE CAN I SAY THE BRO THE MAN
Bro. D. is the best professor! He cares so much about the students and he will always ask about your day, or how the sports team is doing that you are on. I had him in the fall, and for Halloween he brought in cupcakes, and during our last class we had a pizza party! He is so kind and caring, I definitely recommend him for CORE 113.
Bro D is a great teaching and I am taking another course EDU212 with him this spring semester. First time a teacher ever offered me coffee and discussed my grade. I was going through a rough time and he listened to me and gave me 2 extensions for my papers. He is a real bro.
Beyond a reasonable doubt, the best class ever (chessy, I know). Seriously, loved this course and Bro d. Would love to see him when he taught high school especially in the inner city. He made me laugh and at times cry with his teaching stories.
Bro D has been my favorite teacher. His class is not difficult but the information is very valuable. Take his class!
Bro D is a great teacher! I learn a lot from him. He used the right methods of teaching for all the students. He incorporates many different learning techniques doesnt just depend on one. He has fun projects while at the same time I learn a lot from these.
Hes the best!!!!!
He is very caring for his students and genuinely is inertested in us.
Love him
He is an awesome teacher
Excellent teacher
Really great teacher, kind and considerate, would take his class again
Has great stories about his experience teaching and relates the stories to concepts in class. He also gives you articles to read and he calls it plum the article with examples on how this article will help you as a teacher. There is a lot of discussion in class so keep up with the readings. Real life teacher and he cares about us.
Bro d is a teacher who is a teacher in the purest sense. Engages all the students in class so be ready to express your thoughts. This is the third class I had with the bro!
I'm sad. He told us today he is only teaching one class in the fall. Great teacher full of realistic insights and no busy work! I would take him again. I respect this prof.
Last day of class next class pizza party on Bro. D. Would take again because there is no tension in his class. Plenty of discussion on related topics in education! Not your normal stick-in-the-mud prof. You can tell he really cares about you even if you disagree with some of his ideas. Would like to have had him in high school.
My favorite professor at Saint Francis! He is the best!
bro. d has an indestructible optimism. one of the best teachers I had at Francis. I would enjoy taking another class with the bro in the future. he is very humble and wrote each of us a thank you note because we taught him so much this semester. talk about humble. I will never forget this man who is my teacher.
He is the king of power point lectures! Every class he has a power point that is taken from the textbook chapter you are to read. Extremely organized and one look at his syllabus will prove this. I enjoyed all his stories about teaching in the inner city schools. His classes are like a roller-coaster so get ready for the ride. Take again yeah.
I'm a freshmen and completed my first year here at SF. By far he is the best teacher I had my first year. He makes you feel welcome to class and never puts you on the spot. Lots of discussion and a take home midterm. Final is a paper that I enjoyed doing. Lets you work in groups. He gave us a pizza party to end the semester. Good person with class.
good teachers teach and great teachers transform, this says it all for bro d. he has a love for learning, sharing his knowledge and storytelling. would like to take this another class with him. thanks bro.
understands his students and his class is interesting with plenty of discussion.
Not an awful Professor, but he needs to update his material. We started reading an article about the communication styles of men and women. I was wondering why it had such dated references until I saw when it was published... 1999. Pretty boring, cringey guy, but the class is Easy A. If he taught at your High School (BG, maybe?), take the class.
Awesome
Good class and bro d was great. he understands the students and helps them out. great stories and I would like to take him again for another class. he gave me an extra time with my term paper and no questions asked. treats you like an adult. great pizza party last class.
He has taught me so much in such a short time span. Absolutely wonderful and understanding. His classes don't even feel like lectures, more of an interaction which is what he prefers. He'll bring you to your comfort zone. Just don't take advantage of him and do as required in class. Good power points which covers the chapters so why the book?
he has your back even when you mess up. gave me a second chance on an assignment that I needed to do or else the consequence would have been a failure. he went out of his way to help me out. fantastic prof!
One of the better profs at SFU. He has a real concern for the students and he treats all of us the same. I would take him again because he is a real character and keeps you interested in the class. Enjoyed his stories and some seem fantastic but he is a cool guy who makes you feel your views are important. Not stuffy like the guys in black robes
Just saw bro d this afternoon. I had bro last semester in linguistic class. Good teacher with fantastic stories. He is a master raconteur! Would like to take again in the future just to hear his stories. Every Thursday a treat like food.
He reminds me of a Mr. Rogers without the sweater. Kind person full of experience in the classroom. Would like to take again.
bro D is a great teacher and his class is actually FUN. enjoyed every class and he ended the class with a pizza party. he has interesting materials about communications. taking his 261 class in the spring. cool person who will give you every break possible. a prof with a heart.
Interesting course about diversity in the schools and how to help students who do not speak English. Dr. Snyder adapts the course to realistic situations in the schools and in the classroom. Never thought there were so many rules/regulations with the districts. An organized prof who reviews the syllabus every class. I would take him again.
Busts the mold of collegiate teaching. Complete rule breaker and inspires students to do the same in and out of class. Assignments are easy; he cares about what you think, not what you know. challenges students to think outside the box. funny, likable,ageless, insane with organization and lesson plans. an operator. Take any class bro d teaches.
Bro. D is just about the sweetest professor you could have! I love his lectures the most and you can tell that he is passionate about teaching. I always learn so much from Bro. D and his classes and super easy if you do the work and show up to class. He is super progressive and all about social justice which is great to see for an older professor.
I just got my midterm grade from bro d. He gave me an extension on my midterm since I was stressed out with family members who are sick with the virus. I could talk with him like it was my grand dad and I don't talk that much. For some reason bro makes you feel that you matter and what you have to say is important. Cool teacher who cares.
Today was our last class and next week is our pizza party. Bro d is a good teacher and I realized it is just who he is. Strong values dealing with education and student engagement. He demonstrated this all semester. Class is extremely relaxed and I enjoyed the atmosphere bro created. Take again, absolutely. This is a class where I had fun.
Favorite prof at francis. Class is fun and he makes you feel comfortable.
Knowledgeable about teaching and the real world of the classroom! Makes you feel at home in the class. Relaxed, easy going, and humble. Bro d said teaching is like playing tennis, you serve the ball, then the challenge begins. Strong positive views on public education, not so hot on private ed. I would take his class whatever he was teaching.
Great prof and class! Very caring and will help you with any problems. His stories and life experiences are awesome. Not afraid to be honest and open to his students. His class was refreshing and I looked forward to his classes. I learned more that expected from this class. He loves to discuss issues so get ready to talk and share. Love this guy!
Just did my midterm exam with an A. No hassle with the interview for the midterm. I actually enjoyed talking with bro d and I found out I knew more than I thought. Very helpful and he cares. Always will ask me how I am doing in football and will wish me luck before every game. One of a few who really cares.
He is so funny and nice and gives candy every thursday
Best class this semester. I did learn so much on how men and women communicate. Bro is a teacher who cares and understands where we are at no stress. I looked forward to every class. When talking to you he makes you feel you are the most important person in the class and takes an interest in the sport you play like you are number 1.
Last class was a pizza party at a local restaurant. He give many assignments and projects but they help you understand the class better and you can work in groups. Every chapter had a power point. No tests but short papers which were easy. Every class begins with a story of his experience as a teacher. Cool bro d who cares about his students.
bro d is a great teacher and the best one I had at SF. bro give 5 essay papers and the papers are 3-4 pages. but here is the payoff. at the end of the semester the essays are put together to make your final paper. bro is a genius. just cut and paste and there you have it. bro has a heart and I will take him again. not stuffy just cool.
He is always interesting and he is always interested. He called me several times to check on a family members health who was very ill. You know he cares and you can feel that in the classroom. I know now what is means to be a teacher.
I am glad I had bro d for class this semester. I looked forward to this class twice a week. Bro d is very understanding and will help you not judge you. Class was fun with lots of discussion. We did have several papers but he would mark the paper and have you correct it so it is perfect. First time I got an A on all my papers. Cool teacher.
Dr Snyder is an excellent professor, In class we did many various learning activities that enabled us to think in a critical manner and discuss issues dealing with diversity, culture, and language. His wealth of teaching experience and lively stories made me think about teaching. His prayer in class is, Shake up the chalkdust!
Had a good class with brother and I did learn things about the way we communicate. He is tough on marking papers but he made me do the stuff over and I got an A. He can be brutal if you mess up and is there to help you pass. I told him I like his class and would take him again even when he told me I had the IQ of a bedbug. He is like my coach.
Great class with bro d. Helpful in every way. He gave me many chances to fix my papers so I got a good grade. He was the first teacher I believe really cares. He would sit down with me and go over my assignments. I did learn alot about communication styles and the class was fun. He told us to learn how to laugh at ourselves. Take him again yeah.
This class was required because I am an ed. major. It became clear to me that I would like to be a teacher like Bro. D. Both my parents are teachers and when I told them about Bro and the class they said he is a model teacher. My classmates agreed bro is not idealistic but realistic when it centers on teaching. Simple, realistic and caring.
I had fun in this class and I wanted to go to class. Never missed a class because it was fun. We all got a new word each class to learn. My favorite is Haberdashery. When I used this word at home my grandparents could not believe I could use this word in a sentence. Two new words every week and it did help my expression. He took an interest in me.
Great teacher and i had fun in his class. He helped me on several papers and time was not a problem. He would sit down and worked with me till i got it right. He gave us a pizza party last class. Take this class and if you have trouble writing he will help you no matter what. Great guy and big heart.
This was a required class since I am an education major. The teacher has great real life experience with all grade levels. Most of his experience was in the inner city schools. He was good at applying theory with real life experience from his own perspective. At times he made me rethink if the teaching profession was for me. Much discussion.
This was an awesome class with Brother Snyder. Every class was interesting with new ideas on how men and women communicate. The videos were hilarious. We had a pizza party to end the semester. I would take any class Brother is teaching. The atmosphere was positive in every class. No judgments on late assignments. He was understanding.Thanks Bro D.
I had fun in this class with bro d. No sweat. I did good in this class because bro d is a good teacher. He has great stories about his teaching career and the people he had in class. Take again that is a no brainer.
He never gives up. thanks for the A bro d. awesome.
Linguistic Diversity and CORE 113, I had these two classes with Bro. D. He is absolutely one of the best teachers at Francis. No matter your major, you will love this guy. He is funny and informative. Plus there is no textbook or exams. Just small and very easy papers with a presentation. If you succeed he succeeds. Definitely recommend taking!!!!
Just received an e-card from Bro D. He sent the entire class a card wishing us a Merry Chirstmas and thanking us for his evaluation we did on him in class. This is the first time I got something like this from a prof. To me this says a lot! Awesome!
Awesome teacher. Thank you Bro D. I had a very positive experience in your class and will always remember your kindness to me.
Cool class with bro d. In this class learning was fun and no hassle with assignments or test. We had a pizza party our last class. I would like to take another class with bro d. He knows his stuff and relates this to the real world.
My major is in education so this is a required course. Br Dennis made this course extremely interesting with a focus on culture, diversity and linguistics. He covered realistic topics like LGBTQ with respect and dignity. He reminds me of Mr. Rogers.
Bro D is one of the most down to earth person I know. He cares about everyone and it is basically a guaranteed 100% as long as you listen to what he says,that is it. His lectures are always funny and informative and it is always an excitement to walk into class. Compared to other CORE Bro D's final is not a hassle you just have to follow directions
Great class! He would always tell us that being a teacher is a lofty profession. Now I know what he was telling us all semester. Nicest teacher I ever had and he is a brother that does not judge others.
Bro D is the man! His classes are always engaging and fun. He genuinely cares about helping students succeed. Unstuck ai was a lifesaver for prepping for the final.
We love him ❤️
Bro has been around a long time in the classroom. He gets to know the students and works with them. The class was 27 but I felt he work with me to succeed. He made me memorize Maya Angelou's quote, "People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did. But people will never forget how you made them feel.” Thanks bro d!
This class was fun while learning. Two books were required and we did use the books regularly. Brother gave examples and real life stories dealing with diversity. His class was like a cup of hot chocolate on a cold day. Treats on Thursday!
At first I did not think this would be an interesting class, but I was wrong. Br Snyder made the class interesting and inviting. I enjoyed this class immensely especially his teaching experience stories. He was able to have the class do real-life classroom situations. I will always remember Br Snyder. He is a true teacher.
Yeah, I did reads some of the comments but bro d can be sarcastic with his sayings. I forgot to fix my paper and bro took away 25 points plus 9 points for being late. I ask him to look over my paper again and he said reading my paper was like petting a porcupine. No mercy bro I thought you had my back.
Four essay assignments. The modules are required but they are easy to complete just very annoying. Same with the library seminars, don't miss them or you might have to go to the library or do more modules. If you have some complications going to one of his classes let him know there may be the same class as your earlier or later in the day.
This was a good class with bro d. The class had plenty of readings and the power points cover almost everything we need to know. Final is a heritage presentation and I discovered much about my family. Bro d would often tell us to remember By your students you will learn. Pizza party and meatballs made the last day fun. Thank you Bro you are great!
This is the second class I had with Brother. Lectures are from PowerPoints. He had 3 good guest speakers. He varies activities and covers much materials in the class. His classroom experience stories are awesome! He makes learning fun and no stress over grades. My highest complement is to teach like Brother. Thank you my teacher Br Dennis.
This class was required for my major. Brother Dennis made the class a fun learning place. I would take another class if he was teaching a different course. Thank you Brother for the pizza party and treats on Thursday.
This course was super fun and enjoyable. I loved how Professor Dennis focused on content that was interesting to us. Professor Dennis brought a lot of information to class, graded in a timely manner and made himself available with office hours and one-on-one meeting at the Café. No stress in class but a place for learning.
take his class!
