He makes class fun and he is very patient in helping you understand your assignments

Great teacher, teaches well and is not strict.

Best english teacher I've ever had. He's a laid back and interesting guy with a lot to offer, I definitely reccommend him.

Ben is great! He's a fun teacher and he's very easy to get along with :) Definitely recommend him!

I am still currently in his English 101 class, and I love this guy! I am in his online class, and he responds to any questions you have via e-mail. I like the variety of selections he gives for topics. I recommend him for anyone taking English 101, I wish he was teaching other classes, would love to have him again!!

Ben is the man. super interesting topics, challenging assignments, easy going approach. Your writing will improve in this class, you will have fun in this class and... ben is the man! One of my favorite teachers.

very wonderful job

Mr. Ben JOHNSON. He's a pretty cool guy and he's actually really funny! His essay assignments actually make you think, so it was challenging, but he grades pretty easy! Great class, loved the guy!

Pretty awesome teacher...

Great teacher, easy class, and kind of nerdy cute... Is married with kid though. Fun to look @ though! ;)

Mr. Ben is a great teacher!! his assignments are pretty challenging, but he grades fair, and easy. he cares about his students!

I went into his English 101 class with just the knowledge of what my friend had told me about him the quarter before. He is really fun and we do get work done and I learned alot about writing good essays. Pretty easy but don't get behind because it will be hard to catch up.

Let me start by saying i could absolutly not write before i started his class, He works with you and gives examples of what he expects. Very Fair grader. I learned to organize and more clearly explain what i meant. And if you take a draft to him he will look it over and give you ideas. Take HIm for both english...DO IT Sign up NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only down fall is that he doesnt give claification on what he wants in the essaya

Awesome teacher!! He grades fairly and tells will explain anything as long as you ask! Is always willing to help you with essays and you have the opportunity to turn in rough drafts early and he will read them and suggest things before the papers are due. Gives enough time for each paper and is really helpful! Best 101 teacher by far!!

One of the best professors I've ever had and that's saying a lot. Seriously his class has ruined me for all other classes and professors. The only thing he didn't do well was online posting, but other than that, his class was amazing and his assignments were very inventive and interesting. TAKE HIS CLASS!!!!

I am a person that hates English, but Johnson made it easy for me to understand and he is very helpful and grades easily. If you want to pass, take his class!

Probably one of the best English teachers I've ever had. He's easy to work with, class is really laid back, and he makes things easy to understand. Not too demanding, gives plenty of notice on assignments, and I'm about to take Eng 102 with him.

Great teacher! I would recomend him to anybody.

The class is really laid back, he does make you do quite a bit of essays. He grades decent definitely not an easy A.

Mr. Johnson is very nice and humble. I you don't understand anything, he will help you out. Essays are little bit challenging, but he grades very fairly.

He is a very friendly and helpful guy. I am weak in English but going though his 101 course helped me out a lot. I highly recommend his class.

He was pretty awesome and helpful teacher, gives you a fair amount of projects though, keep up on them and you'll do fine. Recommended :)

I would recommend this professor to students. He is very helpful and understanding. Mr. Johnson is very nice and humble.

I can't wait to take this professor, Mr. Johnson, because I hear that he is humble and helpful. Perhaps I should wait to rate him, but I can't wait because he is going to be so humbly helpful.

I would recommend everyone to take any class with this instructor. Very nice and helpful guy, really nerdy but funny nerdy. When essays aren't very well written, he puts his input and its very helpful, gets you ready for the final.

Ben is awesome! He teaches you everything you need to know to complete the assignments he gives you. You don't have to waste your time trying to figure out what he expects from you. If you are lazy you probably won't enjoy this class but if you are looking to actually learn something he is the instructor to take.

Lots of writing but he grades fair and you a couple interesting books. I love to write so for me this was an easy A.

The best english teacher I've ever taken. He looks and talks like Seth Rogen so it makes the class more interesting and fun!!

LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE SETH ROGEN, awesome sense of humor, and class wasn't a dread to go to! assignments were ehh they were awesome and I felt like I got what I signed up for but he's not the easiest grader, I couldn't get an A on anything always left me at 89%

The essays were difficult because personally I'm not that into literature, but if you were more interested they might be easier for you. He calls on people randomly to answer questions throughout the lecture, so be prepared. For the tests make sure you memorize the authors and titles of the stories because there are tons of matching questions.

Basically if you show up for class and participate, you'll get full credit. His grading is hard but he is so easy to talk to. If you want to get a better score on your essays all you have to do is ASK him what you're missing and he will be happy to sit down with you and clarify. Be prepared to spend a lot of time reading/writing. AMAZING TEACHER!!

He's awesome & funny. Not only is he helpful and extremely clear, he is available if you need any additional assistance. He's comfortable to be around and doesn't belittle people. We had someone in class who told him that they struggled in ENG101 and Ben made it clear that if he needed any additional help or clarification to let him know anytime.

He's an awesome teacher he grades hard but you can always as him for help very approachable dude! you have essays that are about 700-900 words long not bad! and if you don't pass you can always do revisions basically if you don't pass it's because you are lazy and don't put effort. Go to class everyday

This is a writing class, so expect essays and such. What hurt my grade was the group assignments that I felt were not graded fairly. Other than that, great professor for those who enjoy writing .

Tech Writ, was informative but lots of research type papers. Was told otherwise before I took the class. He grades fair and explains clearly! Might take another class with him, but only if I have to. Didn't care for the use of profanity.

He was overall very fair and pretty clear about what he was looking for in his assignments. He allows for one paper revision which was nice. Only real complaint is he takes FOREVER to grade stuff. At one point I had 9 ungraded assignments at the end of the quarter. Over all good experience, would take him again.

I'm not very good at English and ended with a 3.0 which is very good for me. I liked the way he taught and gave a lot of information in his modules of what he wanted. I took him online too and I never got confused. He does say he checks how much you go on canvas (attendance) though but I'm always on canvas anyways.

Seth Rogen or Ben Johnson is the real question here. The class work itself is easy, but it comes in all at once. Can be overwhelming. Can assign up to 2-3 essays in a week.

I fell behind in this class due to personal issues, & my grade went from an 81% to a 50% because I didn't turn in three major assignments. I explained to him why I fell behind and he totally understood, and after turning in my assignments late he graded them and I'm up to 87%! He's a very understanding professor & has a great sense of humor. 10/10

This class was not hard but it was a lot of work. There was many time I felt overwhelmed and I am usually good at English! Papers, questions, reading and other assignments all given at the same time, it was very difficult to juggle this class with my full time work and school schedule.

I was scared to take English at college level. Ben's online summer class was great for me. He always pointed out what you did good on an essay and gave tips for the next one. I feel most English teachers only pick on you, so it was refreshing to actually receive compliments. Assignments weren't too tough. Good teacher to get started at college lvl

Mr. Johnson is a great professor, I have taken two of his online courses. He assigns quite a few papers, but it is an English class. There is weekly work but nothing that can't be managed if you are good at self monitoring. I would take another one of his classes anytime.

He honestly sounds exactly like the actor Seth Rogen and I dig it. I'm still in his English 102 class this quarter but he's so rad I didn't want to wait to write a review on him haha. I don't say this lightly, but he's one of the best professors I've ever had. ALWAYS up for your opinion and insight. Patient, a fair grader, overall great guy.

He's GREAT! There is nothing like an honest, fun, down-to-earth teacher. There is a lot of work, but it's English 235. He's funny and uses harsh language, but it's appropriate. He cares and will work with the class adjusting time schedule for due dates if there is a reason. He writes excellent letters of references for his students!

Mr. Johnson was a good professor. He was easy to work with, and was willing to help students in need. English is not one of my favorite subjects, but I think that Mr. Johnson did his best to make it interesting, although there were a few days where it seemed like not a lot was covered in a day.T here were several assignments and a 5-7 page final.

Excellent professor. I couldn't recommend him enough. Do your best and turn in your assignments. It is not an easy grade, but it is definitely not difficult to succeed in his class. He is always available to help and works with your needs if you attend class and keep him in the loop with any late work or need for an extension.

Lots of reading and writing, almost as though it were an English class.

Very funny.

Johnson was great! He was funny and he did an awesome job at staying unbiased even when he did disagree. We use both of the books he assigned frequently, so do get them! Sometimes homework assignments were a lot of questions but they were easy enough and i respected him enough to do it with a good attitude.

Professor Johnson is a great teacher. He is a tough grader but he does give you a copy of his rubric so you know what to go for.

Not an easy A. But, if you follow directions you will do great. He's probably the best professor in the English department. He's very patient and understanding. Some students can be so dumb, yet still he genuinely pays attention to everyone.

Not an overwhelming amount of homework and pretty laid back

Mr. Johnson is so awesome! He looks a lot like Seth Rogan, laughs and sounds like him too! Pretty funny and can keep the class engaged. There is a decent amount of homework but he is clear on what to do. Defiantly would take his class again.

Not horrible, I am shocked at the reviews and ratings on here. In the first 5-6 weeks the workload is A LOT. A big project due every week which could be an essay or formatting numerous documents (this was a technical writing class). The grading was unclear, sometimes no rubric. Late work accepted but knocked down 10% a day. Effort reflects grade.

Took his class online and he barely gave feedback. He's also a very slow grader. You would get your tiny bit of feedback the night before the paper was due, but he would extend the due date. Discussions were completely based on your readings. Overall, not a bad class if you're confident in writing.

Professor Johnson is great at his job. The class isn't too tough but there are always a few things to work on every week. The discussions aren't that hard either. There are like four papers total for this class and an annotated bibliography but you get a fair amount of time to work on each, especially the final paper. Bussin Rating: 8/10

Great teacher

Prof Johnson is a good professor. The most annoying thing about his class is the weekly discussions that require about 600-800 words. But other than that there is not much homework. I also thought that he was a fair grader and that his essays were pretty easy, other than his feedback on rough drafts is not great.

Good teacher, not very tech-savvy though

Class was cancelled a few times but he found a way to catch us up. He's a really funny guy, love sarcastic humour. This class was mostly readings + questions homework and then discussions in class the next day. I enjoy how organized he is with giving us schedules of what the next few weeks will look like. A bit late grading but overall great.

Professor Johnson was a great teacher who gave good feedback and provided interesting topics. Although there were quite a few assignments, I did not struggle unless I procrastinated. He also gave and received feedback very well which was refreshing. If I were to give an overall grade for this class I would give it an A minus.

Ben Johnson provided great support when needed, emailing him if you need more time for assignments is a must, he almost always gives extensions. He grades tough on written assignments aka Essays, he gives good feedback on essays though. Lots of extra credit opportunities towards the end of the quarter so take advantage of it.

I got little to no feedback on many assignments.

Professor Johnson was one of my first professors here at CBC. His hour long lectures to me often seemed as though they took awhile as instead of getting straight to the point, he liked to go off on tangents. However, the work that he assigned was very minimal. (three essays, four response papers, and a pass/fail exit exam) He is very kind!

I loved this teacher. I had a teacher before him and I did not like that teacher. I got to Professor Johnsons class and knew things were going to be better. I liked how he is so considerate and how he grades. I thought I was gonna have a hard time again with grades because I'm not the best at writing. But I learned that I'm not that bad.

I liked this class. It was very small and had around 10 people in it. He was very easy to reach outside of class and was very understanding of any family emergencies. He will work with you if you need it. This was a literature class so 99% of it is reading. If you don't like to read then DO NOT take this class. Overall I would take it again.

This instructor is a very tough grader but does give great feedback. He allows you to resubmit 1 of your 3 main essays for a better grade, and offers extra credit. Some assignments were a bit confusing where I would need to message him, but once he did he clarified. He does take a while to grade your assignments.
