She was a calm mellow person. It seems she was new to teaching. It was sometimes hard to understand what we were doing because she would talk out of subject and to herself. On final, we could write about anything that we learned in that class. Barely any testes. Easy A

Pretty sweet teacher. We watched movies and wrote papers about them. She seemed to be enjoying herself, and she made the class enjoyable for us. We barely even cracked either of the books that were "required," but I suppose that's forgivable. As long as you get your money back.

I expected English 101 to be an easy class, and I had high expectations from her after reading all the reviews. Attendance is mandatory, and we have a LOT of reading to do everyday. We do a lot of group discussions and in-class writing, and write long crical responses every week. If you don't like English that much, this class will be a bore.

This wasn't my favorite class, but not horrible either. Every night you read about a controversial topic and then have group discussions on it during class and write a response on it every week. She grades kind of based on her own opinion which sometimes is bad. It is interesting discussing the topics but I didn't learn a lot about writing skills.

Took the online class and she doesnt care at all. Skips entire weeks and grades super harshly without a rubric or feedback. No communication and waits until the very last day to grade everything, leaving you without any idea throughout the quarter on how you do or what you can do to improve. Dont know how this is even allowed.

I seriously couldn't recommend an instructor more! She worked to catch me up to speed when I fell behind. All of her assignments are reasonable and meaningful. Just fill the brief on time and you'll get the credit. She's very kind and understanding and always willing to help. If I take another English class, she'll be my first choice!!! Thanks Liz!

Professor Harazim was difficult at best. This is due to her lack of communication and respect. I asked for feedback multiple times and she never acknowledged my emails. No explanation regarding the criteria being used for the grades given. During one lecture she was spinning the microphone so we couldn't hear her. She was the worst!

She's very obvious in her politics and the readings reflect it, but if you can withstand the bias for a quarter you'll be fine. She's a slow grader and responder. The rubric and assignments are very vague, but if you meet the word counts and turn it in on time you'll get an A. Interesting material, no feedback. Time-intensive work. I did it online.

This course inspired me so much & I truly feel liberated after this course. Prof. Harazim grades sporadically but always gives super thoughtful feedback & was very easy to talk w/ over message. Writing topics were extremely insightful- expect to do deep-thinking & inner-work. Stay on top of writing & write required replies & u'll do perfect

I really enjoyed the material of this class and I could tell that Professor Harazim was equally passionate about the subjects, but prepare yourself to not know what your final grade is until it's already finalized since her grading is extremely sporadic and delayed. She's also a very tough grader on essays.

Class is 90% discussion, no work in-class. One essay every 2 weeks, one free-write every 2-3 weeks, assigns reading but no work is done based on it. Brought up many philosophical questions, encouraged participation. Provided valuable and enlightening commentary on many different topics. Attitudes tended to be left-leaning.

Prof is very nice and fairly understanding. Prompts for assignments can be confusing and sometimes not entirely direct. I never received any feedback on my assignments so when it came to the last assignment it was very challenging. The textbook can be challenging to read especially if you aren't interested in economics or social studies.

She is a wonderful proffesor. There are anywhere between 2-4 essays, but they are pretty simple. If you go to class, ideas for what to say for the weekly discussion posts will be talked about. Overall, the class is a good fit for someone who is looking for a genuine an understanding professor.

Not a tough grader, and gives feedback, but not necessarily useful - she waits until the last week of the quarter to submit grades and doesn't really give constructive criticism, just commentary. Assignments aren't worth much individually, so you'll need to do all of them to pass with a good grade.

The teacher is okay but not great. She uses an AI checker but doesn't really know how it works. I showed her I didn't use AI, but she didn't listen and gave me a zero. She said we could redo work, but then said no later. She's easy but I don't suggest her because she talks about politics a lot and is slow to grade.

The only thing I learned in this class was her political views. She would refer everything to politics and even go off topic talking about it. It was disappointing to come to class and learn very little about English or the assignments and only about what her views on politics are and how she feels about certain stuff.

Did not miss a single point in this class; grading was extremely straightforward as she provides a rubric on pretty much everything. DOES NOT GRADE ON GRAMMAR/spelling and discussion heavy. Clearly passionate/knowledgable. Does talk about politics but is very respectful if you have other opinions. Only issue is her feedback is vague sometimes.

I can't say I fully enjoyed this class. Most instructions were pretty confusing when it came to the descriptions. I found her very ghost-like; I would send her an email about an assignment up to 4 days before it was due, and she would only respond to me a few hrs before it was due, already turning it in and then got a bad grade bc i was confused.

Amazing teacher, I don't know why anyone else would give less than a 5. Though it's a long class, it doesn't feel like it because she doesn't do traditional based lectures. Instead, it's more focused on having a conversation with the class and less “everyone needs to be quiet and I do all the talking while you take notes”. Open note quiz and groups

Elizabeth has been my favorite professor I've had at BC so far. Elizabeth is very self-aware and understanding of all of her students. She genuinely wants to hear from everyone in class. If you give her your time and attention, you are going to leave class with real knowledge and better critical thinking. Sad class is so long, but it's worth it!

I turned in all the assignments and she never graded any of them until the very last second of the quarter. I hardly learned any actual concepts on English&101 but rather this is her "Let me talk about my worldviews and politics101!" She jumps from random topic to random topic that does not pertain to any of our assignments.

Kind person but not really a good teacher. Learnt more about her political views than English prep, class is sometimes turned into political discussions. She's not really reachable outside of the classroom. Likes to grade things very slowly. Easy grader though. Class structure and assignment instructions were messy and vague at times.

Cannot stress enough how fun this class way. Good engagement and the textbooks are focus on real life. The reading was super fun and we get to talk a lot during class. The projects have good time inbetween to really grasp what you want to write about. The only thing I didn't enjoy was responding to so many classmates on canvas discussions
