WRIT107A . 12 Years Ago

One of the best writing teachers I've had! She is very helpful in office hours and the material you learn in class is extremely useful for an accounting career.

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!

Great professor. You can tell she really wants her students to succeed and makes sure we're always on the same page. Twice she extended our essays' due date so we could have more time to perfect them. Also v helpful to meet 1 on 1 with her. Lets you choose your own essay topic for the last essay which lets you choose something that interests you

Professor Johnson is one of the best professors that I have had thus far since attending UCSB. She makes writing interesting and informative. There are three major papers but they are relatively easy as long as you follow the prompt and do every step of the process that she assigns. She grades fairly easy as well so that's a plus.
