ENG10 . 5 Months Ago

An incredible English 11 professor excels at teaching, especially on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. She handles tense subjects with care and grace, focusing on uncovering political truths rather than mere opinions. Highly recommend her, she often invites visitors to speak, as a result there are never any dull moments!

Judging by what other people have said I might be alone in feeling this way, but I hated the way Ghosh lectured. She made really easy concepts seem way more complex than they were and I simply couldn't follow along her lectures. Nothing she said made sense to me. Class is very easy with posted lecture slides and papers graded super easily though.

Online midterm and final; she really hooked it up. Got an A on both midterm and final and only one B on one of the essays. I skipped 3 out of 10 sections and got a B in the class because of it. Just don’t skip section (even if it’s a waste of time) and you’ll be fine. Material is very basic in this course.

Professor Ghosh is really sweet and made lectures very interesting. midterm and final were both straightforward, online, MC exams and the two writing assignments were super short. easy class but your grade definitely depends on the TA (mine was vague with their expectations and didn't provide any feedback on assignments which was frustrating)

GLOBL1 . 2 Years Ago

Graded by sections, midterm, 2 2 page papers, + final. Attendance was optional for my section but TA was so engaging, also had us write 150 words/week. Midterm/final were multiple choice; questions can be misleading. Papers were easy/straightforward to complete. Very informative lectures, many interesting concepts. Class content is strangely broad.

Ghosh is a really nice woman and her lectures are interesting if you like English. However, your grade solely depends on your TA. My TA was really nice, so that worked out. You don't have to attend lecture, but it does help writing papers. You do also have to read in order to write the essays. Unless you're really good at faking it lol.
