Great Prof. Makes the class interesting and is very helpful

Her announcements in class are never clear, so that no one knows what's going on

very informative & definately recommendedd

fun teacher. class isn't hard. she's very talkative and cheery in class

she teaches very clear and makes sure everyone understands! puts you in a good mood!

She gives lots of extra credit that will boost your grade. Also she explains things when you're lost. Recommended, but you must do your part too!

She is a nice teacher, but she is a hard grader. Dosn't has too much work.

Really nice and funny. Great teacher. Just follow what she says in class, and exams are really easy. A little unorganized, but easy to change her mind on due dates.

she is a good teacher that likes to talk. Strict on attendance. Hard grader. But she gives alot of easy points and extra credit.

Great teacher! She was by far the greatest teacher I have had at CSUF! There is one group project at the end of the semester but it's really easy and fun to do! Take her!

She is very upbeat and friendly, would recommen. But she is positive and thorough. She is a picky grader though. Lots of writing! And make sure you check EVERY week when assignments are due, she doesnt always remind you, and the assignments sneak up on u!

very nice teacher, she is funny and very clear in teaching. A bit picky on grading, but as long as u come to classes and read material, not hard to pass.

great teacher. helpful and thorough in class, and equally as helpful during office hours. Just prepare for the in-class writing mid-terms and you are fine

Easy to understand and follow. Dr. Franklin helps you anyway that she can possible. Grades strict on exams but is helpful. Lots of homework points to boost your grade. Project is fun.

Great teacher, very helpful and enthusiastic.

She is very nice, and helpful. Her class is fun, I had her for 3 hours a week class, she was really good at keeping everyone up. Very experienced. Little picky on grading. But GO SEE her at office hours, very very helpful. TAKE HER!

She's very helpful, if you go to her office hrs. She make the class fun, very very upbeat.

Very helpful especially 1 on 1. Just do the work she assigns, and you'll do great!

I wouldn't say she was very easy, but I would say he inspires you to do you work, which in turn makes it easier to do the required workload. She is enthusiastic and kind. Good extra credit. Long term project. Recommend if you are not afraid to work.

Dr. Franklin is the most effective teacher to take to understand business writing to the full effect. I recommend everyone to take her. She is worth taking!!!

definitely recommend!

Very helpful - I actually enjoyed her class

writing classes are all the same... just write how they tell you to write. she does a great job explaining what she expects. do the practices and she'll fix you up for the next exam. it is a writing class, expect a fair share.

very helpful professor. Makes all content easily understandable. I have taken other teachers for business writing and she is by far the most knowledgeable, interesting, and fun. She makes the class enjoyable.

Best teacher ever!!! She is always willing to help and never puts anyone down. Its true that there is alot of work/writing in this class, but if you do the work you will be fine.

This is the BEST professor i have ever had. I based my schedule around taking her class! The homework is very much like the tests. You MUST participate in this class!! I would recommend her to anyone! Your writing skills are bound to improve!

She was a good professor. She is very straightforward and is available to ask her questions. She gives several homework assignments, tests, and a project. She's kind of laid back but expects a lot from students.

Dr. Franklin, is an amazing professor! I went into this class scared and came out an improved writer. The work load is heavy, but it prepares you for the tests and the real world. She is extremely funny and very willing to help if you go to her office hours. As long as you do homework and attend class, this class isn't that difficult.

She's very helpful, friendly, knowledgeable, and generous. The class basically is a lot of writing. Homework assignments help to prepare for tests, and boost the grade. All you need to do is show her that you try real hard, and she'll give you a B generously. Forget about other bad comments about her!

I was so scared of this class because English is my second language. But she is great, helpful, and generous. I ended up with a B in class. :) People .. work hard and you will get good grade. Simple as that!

I took this class a few years ago but I still remember how much I enjoyed it. I learned a lot from her. Many things I still use today in my professional career. She'll teach things that you need to function in the corporate world. I work with people who had other BUAD profs. and their grammer and writing structure is horrible. It's embarassing to say that I graduated from the same school as them. Our department now has it's own writing and grammer tests before people can be hired.

shes really loud, and really into teaching. dont sit in the front row because i literally get headaches after class from her shouting. grades hard on tests. shes nice though.

Really good teacher, not to hard, not to easy -very informational and fair.

Great teacher! She will teach you a lot. Explains her grading and is very straight-forward. Homework every week and one group project, plus three tests and a final. She's not too hard, but not to easy. She loves what she does and is good at it. One of the best teachers i have ever had!

Took class Spr 05. She's a bit loud,class a little disorg'd & the lectures choppy,but grades fair and critiques well(hav2 ask2 decipher her comments).Learnd more in this class than in any other.I write 4 work & she helped make my writing better(don't use this as an example).By far the most useful class I have taken.Take class 2 learn not 4 easy A

Very Challenging class. A lot of writing assignments and projects but the most important thing is that you'll learn valuable knowledge from her. Dr Franklin is very smart and she wants you to learn from her lectures and assignments. This class is for those who actually want to learn not to just get an easy "A" stamped on their transcripts!!!

Very tough grader. But very pleasant teacher, gives decent examples.

I LOVE HER!! The class is never boring with her because she is so energtic and loud. I feel that I learned a lot of helpful info but it is a lot of work. But if you dont want to have a boring class then take her.....its never boring

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I took her for 201 and liked her so much that I wanted to take her for 301. I've learned a lot in her class. Workload isn't too bad. A few in class writings that prep you for the final...Not an easy A buy somebody you will definitely learn a lot from...And who's always willing to help her students.

She is awesome. Fun and clear. Use the online office hours and make friends with her. If you are serious about improving your business writing skills, she will be honest and kind. Check your assignments online, FREQUENTLY! (Its your responsibility anyways).

Scored 85% on all papers including final and class presentation and got a C+. What? Tough grader. You'll learn but watch out!

Great instructor! Take April if you are truly interested in improving your writing. Has helpful online office hours that make it easy to connect with her! She is extremely knowledgeable in her field and really emphasizes the business applications of the subject. Highly Recommend her - but she is not easy so expect to work!

This class is not as hard as everybody writes. Attendance is required. Material is easy, however the workload is very high. It took up most of my semester workload. Teacher is pretty cool.

Dr. Franklin does grade hard. you could never find out what your grade was because she always said the points are small to begin and increase at then end. She lectured fast. Homework was unorganized but i think that is because she thought she was using a different book which she originally designed her course to follow. do your work,try,you'll pass

She is awesome!!! One of the best professors this school has I wish that she were teaching early 301 level classes. She is hard but fair... Do all the work and you will pass this class... She always helps students, and answers her e-mails asap!

Loved her! She's tough for sure, but super fun & helpful! I made the mistake of not buying a book, so I screwed myself grade wise. Pretty sure I would have gotten an A if I did all my homework. Remember to get as many points as possible!

Dr. Franklin is one hell of a woman. Teacher, ehhhh.. But she's cool for sure. There is no material to memorize, I didn't learn anything, just did her busy work and am a decent writer so i passed. I'd take her again. At this level of college, people shouldn't expect a professor to hold their hand anyway. overall, give the class a C.

this prof is definitely very nice. this class is relatively easy if you put the time into it. i did all the hw and extra credit, got high Bs and an A on the tests but did bad on the group project because of other classes and still got a B+. Not bad at all but you need to be able to write decently.

She is very energetic and vocal when she lectures, which helps you keep interest in the topics. HW is easy, definately need the book. Exams are fairly easy but she grades very strictly so dont get high hopes for a great grade on the exams. overall good professor, i recommend her.

This isn't a creative writing class. She wants you to be to the point with your papers. Avoid useless words like "just". Will need the book for the HW, helps a bit to read some parts. Be sure to structure your papers so it flows well. Cool teacher, group project was a bit hectic though.

Professor Franklin is a groovy lady! This class has a heavy workload. I hated the group research project, but I hate groupwork anyway, lol. Once you figure out her grading style and know what you need to do for proper business writing techniques, the class isn't too hard and is actually enjoyable. I highly recommend this professor : )

Busy Work! Class is easy. Just check your grammar and take out any redundant words. Do the hw and find a good group for the group project. Go to every class.

Listen, if you want to learn how to write a professional paper take her class and do it before you become a senior. Real world information and fast pace class. She makes the semester fly.

she's pretty funny she talked about her kids alot. expect to do alot of writing because PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT. start the business project early because if you wait until the last minute it will show in your presentation

Professor Franklin is a very intelligent person that I respect a lot. Although, her grading is TOUGH but you will learn a lot! This is not an easy class, you must try hard to do well.

doesn't matter if you learned something or you thought the class is beneficial and funny or whatever, you are not getting an A. she is very VERY hard grader. you put the same amount of work with another teacher and you will get better grade for sure.

She gives you no feedback. You only get better at writing by writing, and she never grades your practices, so you will go into the exams unprepared. She grades insanely hard. Would not recommend her. Also, she is so energetic it's kinda annoying. But that's just my opinion.

Weekly online homework based off chapter readings but you don't need to thoroughly read the book to get an A on the homework. Exams are a bit difficult but manageable. She's a great teacher. Strict on writing but it's a writing class... Really enthusiastic and helpful! Easy B class, for sure. Two free absences. I'd recommend her.

Great class. She is a hard grader in the first three exams that you will take, but eventually you will find that she give you extra opportunities to raise your grade. Also, find good partners for the group project. Take her!

Passionate teacher, she is very knowledgeable, a kind of hard grader, be on her good side and do all the hw online and come to class with your templates before each test and you will be just fine

Professor Franklin is one of the best professors I've ever taken. While she doesn't give out easy A's, she's very understanding and genuinely wants everyone to do well. She's very passionate about the subject and teaching. You have to pay attention in class and go to SI to get a good grade on tests. Homework every week. Very personable and funny.

She's an above average teacher, but doesn't really teach. She expects you to know what to do at the beginning of the semester. Being a transfer student, I had no idea how to write memos and case studies, but she helped me out a lot. Group project is a tough one but other than that you should be ok. H- 4.5 C- 4.2 E- 3.2

Took online. Her online videos are short and sweet . It covers the basics with quizzes in them. She's an awesome prof always willing to help. Her written exams are pretty hard (tough grader and hates grammar mistakes). There is a bunch of group work which was a drag. You could pass the class by just taking the exams as long as you do good on them.

I am going to start off by saying this class is the hardest writing class I have ever taken in my life. I got A's in all my English class and received a C in this class. She grades very, very, very hard. I am really not sure what I did wrong on any of her papers because her feedback told me i wrote it well, but i got a 65 on the papers. BEWARE.

Class consists of online homework (really easy just common sense), a couple of in class assignments, a career packet (not hard but grades very difficult), group project 5-7 pages and presentation. And 4 tests. Yes she grades very harsh but it is only in your benefit. She really wants you to learn. Professor Franklin is a real sweetheart.

Took this class because I had her for 201. Same setup as in 201. Most of the class had her for 201. A lot more group work but it is really simple. Grade consist of Participation (easy points) group project 5-7 minute presentation and 3 case studies. Grades very hard on grammar. If you ask her for help she will give it to you. Very nice person.

She isn't all that bad. Need an online code for reading/homework. 2 assignments weekly and reading helps. Study examples in chapters. Timed in-class essays (exams) every few weeks on memo/letter/email. Read the prompt, keep it short and add extra details. Group project and career packet at the end of the semester. Got a B+ and i hate writing lolz

I HATE writing but this class wasn't that bad. Professor Franklin makes her lectures engaging & she is very helpful at office hours. Online homework every week & in-class writing exercises (counts towards grade/attendance). If you follow the examples and practice exercises, you should do well on the exams. Take advantage of extra credit!

She's the type of teacher you have to put effort with. She's passionate and her teaching style is very hands on. Make sure to show up, pay attention, do the homework, and try! Personally the reason I like her is because she is pretty linient on tardyness, I couldn't always make it on time but she gave me attendance anyways. She is understanding!

Highly recommend Professor Franklin. She cares about her students and makes sure to give you the attention you need. Shes easy to get in contact with and is clear about what she is expecting from you. 10/10

She is very clear in what she expects from us and teaches very well. She's also really funny and engaging so you never feel like you HAVE to pay attention. She grades kind of tough but as long as you show up to class and do the homework, you should pass. I have learned a lot from her.

I had professor Franklin for BUAD 201 and absolutely loved her. She is very clear about what she expects and gives you many attempts to practice your writing through homework assignments before the actual exams. She is a tough grader, but she is always available outside of class to help. I am very glad I took her class.

I loved this class. I learned a lot, and she made the class enjoyable. She cares about her students and wants you to succeed. Would highly recommend her.

HWK doesn't take long to complete, but there are ALOT! These assignments prepare u for the exam tho so be sure to do them. Professor literally gives u the prompts for the exams and all u have to do is go back into previous assignments and write down quotes to help ur argument. Bad reviews are from disgruntled students who don't put in the effort.
