Overall the best professor I have had in a long time. She is very clear on what she expects, and gives the average amount of work. Her grading is very clear cut, she makes attending class fun (she also is a cutie, which makes going to class not so bad). In short I would take her again if she taught English 1A at my school.

Erin was one of the best English professors I've ever had. Just two essays through out the semester, and a few summaries. She gives great feedback if you go to her office hours to review your essay or summary. She is also young and fun, and actually makes English fun. Her being hot is just a plus.

Professor Danson is a sweet heart! She is by far my favorite professor I have ever had. She is not only super nice, but also super helpful. Erin taught so much, and I could not be happier with my experience in her class.

Professor Danson gives really good feedback and gives interesting essay topics. Her assignments were easy to complete but time-consuming. She does allow late work and only docs 5% if late.

Professor Danson was incredibly kind and had a genuine concern for the students and our results by allowing some late work and providing excellent feedback. You won't regret enrolling in her class if you wanted to take English 1A.

Explains material well and gives good feedback.Very understanding and open to any questions/help you might have. You'll need to work hard and turn in work on time but the work is do-able if you prioritize, work is really good to know in the sense that you can apply the subjects outside the classroom. Very kind and caring DEF RECOMMEND!!

I took this class in 6 weeks and Prof. Danson organized the class well. Since it was fast-paced and I took another 4.0 credit class simultaneously, I emailed her often for extensions and she was very understanding. Her essay format helped me a lot with crafting my essays, and I'm still using them in ENGL 1C right now. I maxed out my EC to get an A.

I took Professor Danson's online winter course. She is kind, she grades quickly, is very unerstanding if you reach out, and assigns interesting readings. There were four essays in total and I got decent grades for them because of how clear the grading criteria is and how helpful her feedback is even though I'm not the best writer. Highly reccomend!

No one gets a perfect score on any of the 4 essays but she's definitely open to letting you try again! Makes you do outlines and having you go to the Writing Center or meet with her (mandatory). If your essay is just barely shy of the 4.5 page minimum you get a 0 but you can resubmit. If you can produce perfection, go ahead

Professor Danson is very understanding and gives good lectures. You must participate in class with groups and by doing this only made me want to keep going to her class. Overall shes a great professor and very caring, I recommend taking her class.

The class is very dependent on 4 essays and if you didn't do a good job on an essay, it will tank your score heavily. She also does not give a lot of extra credit and the one she offers is very minimal. She also gives a ton of material to read and assignments, I recommend not to take this class if you have a lot of other classes as well.

She is a teacher very dedicated to her work, she has all her classes structured like a food recipe and that makes you not feel lost in class. And that every day it is already planned that it has to be done. I really liked his classes, I learned too much about how to write an essay in detail and structured.
