She is an excellent teacher. She uses contract grading, and attendance is pretty mandatory. Two big essays and no final. Overall, she's a lovely person and a good teacher; I would highly recommend that people take her class.

Professor Johnson is an amazing teacher and I genuinely feel like a better writer as a result of this class. She takes extra effort to cater the course around free and accessible materials and takes the time to not only thoroughly read your papers, but meet with you for conferences on them in order to provide substantial feedback.

Professor Johnson is the best professor I have had at this school. She truly cares for her students and always gives them the benefit of the doubt. She is great at responding to emails on any day and gives quality feedback. She also fosters a positive class environment that makes students feel comfortable to participate.

If you ever have the chance to take her, do it! She truly cares for her students and if you ever fall behind, she is there to help you catch up and is sincere with every word that she says. I wish I could take her again, best writing teacher there is!

I loved her. She truly cares about her students and genuinely wants you to learn. PLEASE take this class if you can. She brings a comfortable vibe to the class and wants to make sure you succeed. Shes motivational because she really gets you to understand yourself and makes you want to move forward with writing. I loved her class a lot.

If you want an easy writing class, take this PROFESSOR! She is so genuine and really cares for her students, her class is so EASY! There are 2 big writing projects but you have alot of time to work on them and she gives amazing feedback on your drafts! Short readings She follows a grading rubric so follow that! One of my favorite profs at UCSB!
