Professor Benedetti has so much to offer in her teachings. She is extremely communicative, engaging and never leaves her students in the dark. Response time is on point when reaching out to her. She allows texts, phone calls, e-mails and appointments. You definitely earn your grade taking her online course. I would HIGHLY recommend her course!
Prof Benedetti was amazing. The weekly videos she posted were filmed in real-time and address any concerns that may have come up that week. She responds to emails quickly and is always ready to help with problems. All she asks is you follow the instructions of each assignment. A really great class to take!
You won't regret taking this professor, she is so amazing! She is very sincere and you can tell she's passionate about her students. Work consists of answering questions from two books (both are amazing and so not boring). Her videos are also very straight forward and clear, you'd have to be REALLY lazy to not get an A. She has taught me so much!
Professor Bendetti its very clear on what she expects Out of each assignment. Make sure you get the text books. Most of the information is straight out of the books quote for quote. I would definitely be taking her class again!
Professor Benedetti is by far the best professor I have had. She is always so positive and upbeat and really keeps you motivated through out the entire semester. She was extremely helpful with any concerns I brought to her. You will be 100% happy with choice of her as your ALS professor.
Professor Benedetti is incredible, cares about her students and will help you even if it's not course related. There were 2 books needed, one project, and a final that is multiple choice and short answers. As long as you watch her videos, read what each assignment is asking of you, and turn everything in on time, you will do great in her class.
Professor Benedetti might be the sweetest human being to ever be a professor. She cares about all students, and their lives, whether academic or not, she is always there for you! 2 textbooks (pretty cheap, and not boring), 1 final exam (multiple choice/short answer), and one straight forward project. Overall, amazing class, teacher, and experience.
communicate well. She answered fast once you shoot an email. Very caring and approachable
Janelle Benedetti cares a lot about the success of her students. This course is designed more for incoming freshman, and is very informative!
She is hands down the most caring and involved online professor I have come across during my time at CSN. You can tell she absolutely loves teaching this class and loves her students. There are about 3-4 assignments due a week but they aren't hard at all and they are designed to help you in the long run.
ALS101 may seem like just an easy A, and if youre willing to do the work its not hard to succeed. Its not hard, youll learn about yourself, and her tips actually DO help! Its really all about getting through THE REST of your college career sucessfully. Professor Benedetti REALLY cares and does all she can to propel her students forward in life.
A great caring professor. This class was recommended as an easy A by my advisor. Despite me being in my third semester, I learned a lot from this class. Would definitely recommend taking in your first year, you will learn so much. Its a great online class with a professor that will go out of her way for her students and provide a ton of resources.
This teacher is so sweet. You can tell she cares tremendously about her students. Assignments are geared toward real life stuff, not just busy work. A class that you will actually see yourself morphing into a better student within one semester. TAKE HER above all others! You want a dope class, take a dope professor.
She is a great teacher. She is very good at communication. She cares about her students. she grades quickly and gives good feedback. She gave feedback on 90% of my assignments.
I highly recommend this professor, she is amazing, fun and is always available also gets back to her students as soon as possible. She has made is easy for her students during the Cov19 crisis. Including gives many opportunities for extra credit and updates her grade book weekly, so you will always be up to date on everything. Again high recommend!
She is an excellent professor. Very understanding and easy to work with. She expects good quality work from her students, nothing less but she is a joy to work with. She is always willing to help you when you need it, don't hesitate to ask.
This professor is the best professor I've ever had. She makes herself 100% available for help. She used to be a academic advisor so she's very knowledgeable. One of the projects helps you with your future academic path and relieves any stress you may be feeling about future classes. You won't be overwhelmed with work.
Personally I enjoyed her class, and it was not difficult at all. She is very kind and cares about her students a lot. If you are looking for a professor that will understand you and give you great feedback she is the one.
Professor Benedetti has taught some great tips on college life and is a great encourager through the semester. Extremely helpful ! Thank you for everything I enjoyed this class ;)
She gives you all the answers in the book and videos making it so you just have to watch and read to get a good grade. Very friendly and willing to work with you.
SHE IS AMAZINGGGG! Super caring and approachable. She gives really great feedback. Assignments are not challenging but do expect to spend some time reading.
Professor Benedetti really cares about her students, her videos are fun to watch, the books she chose for the class were easy to read and very helpful. I so enjoyed her class and would take another one of her classes. Fun class. Great professor.
Professor Benedetti is the best professor I've had yet!! She cares for her students and is very passionate. In these unprecedented times, she adjusted our work accordingly and was very helpful if we ever needed anything. This is a very insightful class and she was amazing!!
This is a really fun class and it helps you learn about College success. You may find out some things that can really help you during college. Just complete your assignments. The professor in this course wants you to succeed and will help you with anything your having trouble with pertaining to college life. This really is a great class.
Professor Benedetti is amazing! She is very welcoming. If you have the chance to take her class or have her as a professor, definitely take it. Professor Benedetti truly cares about her students and it shows. Anything you need, go to her. Such a wonderful person.
Professor Benedetti is a HIGHLY recommended teacher. You will NOT be disappointed if you take a class from her. She encourages her students to be the best they can possibly be. She is very helpful and makes it very easy to contact her with any questions you may need. You can tell she genuinely cares about her students and their success. LOVE HER!
Prof Benedetti is one of the best teachers or professors i have ever come across. She cares about everyone. Interacts and puts in a lot of effort to makes sure you enjoy and learn from her class.
Professor Benedetti is a great teacher. The material that she has shown in the program is invaluable. I think ASL class really make the students think about different aspects of enrolling in College. Definitely, it has been one of my favorite classes. The class is not difficult, just be sure to take advantage of this special class.
Professor Benedetti makes herself available to all students, makes her course fun, easy to understand and engaging. She makes her rules and regulations clear and simple to follow. assignments are fun and helpful. A great and kind professor.
Professor Benedetti is tight, all I gotta say. You'll learn everything you will need to know for college and you'll make a great friend along the way. Do your work, be thoughtful, and be legit.
Professor Benedetti is amazing!! She really wants you to pass, be successful, and is always there for you for help too! The textbook she gives is really interesting and easy to read. My favorite part of the class is the Major and Career Project, you really learn a lot. Although, throughout all her assignments they are all unique. Take her!
Shes the GOAT! Lectures were fun, and she definitely has a bubbly personality. This instructor grades fair but does not take late work. Turn in your work and pay close attention on your tests and quizzes. I only wish she taught more of my requirements.
Professor Benedetti was a really nice and genuine person. She is an easy grader, and would prefer if you did your work on time. She is however very considerate of life problems and will grant you more time if you need it. You need the textbook for the quizzes, and little else. This is a very easy 8 wk course.
If you are just starting out in college you must take this class. Professor Benedetti is amazing. Hands down my favorite Professor!!!!!! If you are looking to take an ALS course take this one. Very easy A. I took the eight week course no problem. I definitely recommend you take her class.
I took her 8-week course online and it was really easy! There are a few assignments each week that should take no longer than an hour to do. There are also quizzes every week, but all the answers are easily found in the textbook and you have unlimited time to take quizzes. This is a guarantee A as long as you do the work.
You have to be a fool to not take this class and even select this professor. I am grateful and am happy that I took it. I learned more things about college and myself as well. Thank you again and God bless you.
Taking this class was fun. She is really nice and whenever you needed help. She would be there to help you at all times. The assignments she gave pretty fun and it is much better than work you get from other classes.
Professor Benedetti is probably my favorite professor so far at CSN. ALS 101 is easy, fun, and engaging. I took it as an elective about halfway through my Associates degree, and I wish I would have taken it first. Prof B uses fun tiktoks and memes to make her points, and most assignments are turned in via text box entry. Easy A AND useful class!
I am in my early 50's so going back to school after so many years was a bit stressful. I was also being retrained due to an on the job injury. I was having issues and she caught on fairly quickly and we ended up talking. She was able to get me the help I needed to pass not only her class but the rest of my classes. Her compassion saved me
Probably one of the best professors out there. She genuinely cares for her students and always makes herself available. Aside from the fact that she is one of the sweetest people, the work isn't very hard at all. If you actually put effort into the class it's an easy A. Also, she makes funny tik toks to share with the class.
Professor Benedetti is a good professor and was an academic advisor. She's really nice and gives you numerous ways to communicate with her. There's a bit of reading but nothing to be worried about; she allows you to use the textbook for quizzes but not for the final. All work is due by Saturday. This class helped me feel welcome and less anxious
she amazing and it give us a lot homework but we can do it. Prof Benedetti is one of the best teachers or professors i have ever come across. She cares about everyone. Interacts and puts in a lot of effort to makes sure you enjoy and learn from her class.
If you're reading this, this is your sign to take Professor Benedetti!!!! Best teacher ever hands down. Super personable and just a genuine person trying to make sure all her students enjoy and pass the class. I wish she could be my teacher forever! But seriously, you will not regret choosing her and her class was beyond easy. Just do the work!
Professor Benedetti has structured her class to teach you college and life success. I would 100 percent recommend taking her class if you have the opportunity. She gives weekly assignments but is very in detail of how to complete them. Always has such positive things to say, and has a lot of experience not only with her study, for any help.
I had the pleasure of taking Professor Benedettis ALS 101 class this 2021 spring semester. This was hands down my favorite class I took during my college career so far. Its such a fun class and I never got bored. Professor Benedetti is THE BEST!!
Professor Benedetti is the sweetest person you will ever meet. She cares so much about her students and wants to see them succeed. There are assignments due every Saturday night. She gives great feedback on every assignment that helped my confidence. There are journals that really make you think deeply about yourself and were a lot of fun to do.
The homework is enough to keep you busy every day but can be completed in a matter of hours. The reading is important for this class but it's not enough to weigh you down. The majority of the homework finds your opinion to be the most important aspect. Very easy class and the professor is literally a gem. Would definitely take her again.
Benedetti is great!!!! I love her high energy & inspiration. So sad class is over.
Professor Benedetti was my first ever college professor, and I will seriously never forget her. She connects with each student so quickly, and is so funny! She made class so enjoyable and she is super chill. She doesn't accept late work, which I deeply respect because it keeps me in check! You won't regret taking her, I promise!
Professor Benedetti gave good feedback on assignments, made sure students know what assignments are due for the day/week, and is incredibly caring!! I recommend her to anyone going into their first year of college or to anyone in general. She has a bunch of connections around campus too so if you need anything just ask! She'll take care of it.
One of the best teachers I ever encountered throughout my stay at CSN. She has been very caring and supporting of me throughout my time in ALS 101. She constantly check up on her students to see whether they are fine or not. She is overall a good teacher. Thank you Professor Benedetti for making my life bright!
I don't even know where to begin! Professor Benedetti is so wonderful and really cares about her students. She gives so many resources and prepares you to be a successful college student. The class isn't hard as long as you do the work and communicate with Professor B. She's very engaging and so much fun to learn from. Professor B's the best!!
I would recommend this class for all FYS. She truly cares about her students and wants you to be successful not only in her class but in life in general. Assignments are relatively easy. Quizzes are straight out of the book and videos. She is a great professor to have in your corner.
Professor Benedetti is awesome. I highly recommend this course. She is truly the most caring and dedicated professor I have ever had. I got a lot more out of this course than I expected. I received an "A" and valuable study skills but I also grew as a person and my confidence level has increased from taking this course. It is a must-take course!
She was amazing!!!!!! 10000% recommend her class.
Her class was relatively easy as long as you do the work. You need to make sure to be on top of the due dates especially with the projects because those caught me off guard. The projects were pretty helpful though, so I appreciate that. She gives great feedback on work and has really good communication and I really enjoyed her class overall!
This professor is an absolute sweetheart. She does want you to put some effort into your work, but she loves her job and her attitude is very caring and positive towards her students. The class consists of chapter readings and quizzes, commentations on Tik Toks, journals and a few other assignments and projects. Easy class if you just do the work!
Super sweet professor! There's about one to two assignments, a journal, and a quiz every week. However, quizzes are open note and the rest is very easy as long as you take the time to do it. She gives great feedback and responds with very encouraging messages. I would recommend taking her :)
Class is an easy A. Fun and enjoyable class that I looked forward going to. Professor shows a lot of tik toks on college topics. Professor Benedetti is an amazing professor and she can relate a lot with her students. Definitely recommend taking Professor Benedetti for ALS 101.
Professor Benedetti is one of those professors that you'll remember and thank at your graduation because of how much she inspired you. Do the work she asks of you (which is honestly beneficial for yourself), dig a little deep every now and again, and you'll do just fine. I would highly recommend Professor Benedetti to anyone needing this class.
Where do I even start?! If you're considering choosing Professor Benedetti, DO IT! I loved taking this course with her! She offers many points. It's a simple class-do the work and you'll pass. She also answers emails quickly and answers any questions in detail. You won't regret choosing Professor B! :)
Professor Benedetti was the best professor I've had, her work is not at all difficult! I loved her Tiktok assignments and the projects, it helps you in the long run. Not only does she help her students amazingly, but she motivates them. She indeed cares about all of us.
She's literally the best, amazing and a supportive professor.
Professor Benedetti is a fantastic and caring professor. The class is also easy to pass if you put the effort into it.
Professor Benedetti's online ALS101 course was an easy A and I'm sure as long as you can keep up with a few assignments every week, you can handle this class! Everything is open book whether that's regarding just a regular assignment or a quiz / the final exam. She is extremely sweet and cares that we put effort into our work and pass her class.
She was such a nice teacher! Her work is really easy and fun to do. Nothing too hard. Her class is an easy A and has a good sense of humor. She creates these journals every week, reads them, and leaves a comment on them. She really takes the time to read your journals and leaves a word of encouragement. I would definitely take her class again.
Professor Benedetti really puts importance on her students. I appreciate her understatement towards her student's financial and life situations. Her textbook is very informative and also very affordable. However, I do admit it is a lot of work (simple work) for a week. If you are good at managing time, then this might be a breeze for you.
Professor Benedetti is awesome! She gave personalized feedback on my assignments and I felt that she genuinely cared about her students. I really enjoyed the textbook and her class.
I took this class as an 8 week class and I will admit it is a lot of assignments that are due weekly but it makes sense because the class is shorter. Overall this professor was one of the best professors I have had in a long time. She gives personal feedback and she really did care for her students. Definitely recommend taking her!
She provides full explanations for each assignment and inspirational feedbacks.
If you are ready to start taking college seriously and want to accomplish your goals. Take advantage of this course and the advice of Professor Benedetti.
This class is very informative and helpful when you start college. I highly recommend Professor Benedetti. She is fun and inspirational!
Wow! I wish all professors taught with the passion and kindness like professor Benedetti. She cares about her students and truly wants them to succeed in college and in life. This course is very informative for first years with an easy textbook.
I am so exciting to say this. Professor Benedetti is my favorite professor for CSN Online. She replies back whenever she can, she doesn't think my questions are stupid nor weird. Her fashion is a plus even her hair accessories are a plus too. But she cares about her students and gives you a honest feedback about each received assignment. -V
I enjoyed taking this class; the professor is very caring, and the work she gives is doable. There are simple readings, and the quizzes are based on the book. Be creative
Professor Benedetti Is a really great teacher, despite the fact that the class was online, her lectures were easy to understand. I would say that for me, taking her class was an amazing experience because I was doubting my capacity to comply with the requirements. The time invested in this class has paid off, I have learned a really cool stuff.!
I love professor Benedetti! She is awesome , cares for her students and gives good feedback on assignments. I would take her class again if I could haha. Im going to miss her! All you hsve to do is follow directions & ask questions! Most def do the best as you can becuse she is really not hard on her students& she is straight forward.
Professor Benedetti teaches you things you're going to realize about the real world. No late work allowed and no wrong spelling is allowed she works with you if you're going thru a lot and she actually cares for her students and takes the time to get to know everyone.
Professor Benedetti! Thank you so much for this semester! This class was so much fun to take, it wasn't like any other I've taken. Each week we were given assignments and quizzes that were so helpful and engaging, not even a minute felt boring or wasted in this class.
Professor Benedetti is the type of instructor that wants the best for her students.
You could skip most of the assignments if you got a perfect score on the 2 projects at the start. Most of the work you do isn't worth the time you put into it the only ones that would be worth your time are the quizzes and the work that are 10+ points. All you will write about are tik toks, you will learn nothing in this class
Professor Benedetti is awesome. She always leave feedback. Her assignments have actually helped me understand college more. It has also prepared me to choose my own classes with or without a career advisor. She was the only teacher that would wish me a happy holiday no matter what the holiday is.
Lots of homework for the class but the professor creates a very clear and open environment and goes through the topics and homework very clearly with very clear grading criteria. Would highly recommend this as your ALS teacher
I absolutely loved having Professor Benedetti! She has fun, easy assignments each week. TikToks are a part of your quizzes sometimes, and I don't know what's more straightforward than that. She does care about her class and her student's success, so there are some minorly hard things. Other than that she's fantastic!! Late work is not accepted.
She was great. There were no problems with the class. I just feel like I could have easily passed the class without the book that is supposedly "required" She also did not put all of the assignments and modules so look for assignments on calendars.
I found Professor Benedetti and ALS101 engaging and fun. This class takes you out of your comfort zone and makes you think about many aspects that you don't get in other courses. I am truly enjoying my time in the class and would gladly take other classes with Professor Benedetti.
Loved this class. I finally felt like I was able to connect with an online teacher. I would recommend this class for every first year student.
Professor Benedetti is clear, concise and very informational. The work in the class is fun and she incorporates a lot of tik toks and fun activities. She tries to get to know her students and really wants to see you succeed. Everyone should take this class when starting college! Favorite class! Great feedback! Fun assignments! Great mentor!
She is super strait forward with how she grades and what she expects from you. No late work will be expected for credit. Most assignments and quizzes are work less than 15 points. There are two major projects and one final quiz. Don't procrastinate and the class will be easy.
Was a great class to take as a transition into college, and the only reason I didn't get 100 was that I had many assignments I did not do. Quite an easy class but there are about three assignments per week so just plan your time accordingly even though the assignments take no more than 15 minutes (usually).
This class is great for students 16-19 who like to have fun, figure out why they are in college and what to do with their life. If you are a more seasoned student, assignments can seem redundant. The Professor has good intentions but for me, I feel everything was very time consuming for the content that we were learning. Could have been an email.
I'm sure her teaching style is great for some students, but personally, I felt there was too much "busywork". Both of the major projects were actually really helpful, though. Not difficult at all just a bit tedious for assignments I didn't really see too much benefit from.
One of the easiest class I took last semester. Maintained an A all threw out. Would definitely take again.
This class tops some of the other amazing online classes I have taken. She is super awesome and the textbook she uses is really nice to read. Her class is engaging, fun, and almost makes you feel at home with how much Prof. Benedetti cares for her students. I learned so much from her, and for that, I am eternally grateful. 100% recommend this class
I took her online course, and it was super easy. The textbook was free and all of the questions from tests were from the textbook. Most of the assignments asked you to answer some questions in a paragraph or more, stating your opinion about a certain topic. Finally, she always gives feedback and is very laid back, I highly recommend her.
A very straightforward and nice professor. The textbook is completely accessible online for free. Her assignments aren't difficult or time-consuming and the quizzes on the textbook are straight from the book. Super friendly, the work is fun and simple, would definitely recommend.
Professor Benedetti's class is engaging and fun. The assignments are manageable, and she genuinely wants students to succeed. unstuck AI proved helpful for study prep alongside the textbook. Overall, a great introductory course.
Professor Benedettit is the best professor I've ever had. As a high school senior taking this class for dual enrollment, Professor Benedetti did incredible in easing down my worries for college by showing that it isn't too difficult if you stay on top of everything. Her lessons and projects will be very helpful for freshman.
Very easy course while being educational. Took the 8wk section and was very well paced. Textbook is free. The assignments are quick and easy. The midterm and final are straightforward and useful as a college student. Info about the projects are outlined on day one. As long as you stay on top of it you can breeze through the class.
Professor Benedetti gave me inspiration and guidance that greatly influenced my college success. Her genuine care, prompt responses to emails, and dedication to her students created an environment where I felt supported. She motivated me to push forward, believe in myself, and embrace challenges to achieve my academic goals.Very inspiring.
Professor B was great. This class is a great tool when trying to figure out all of the college politics. This class really gave me a sense of direction. You get what you put into this class, so if you feel like you know everything, this class isn't for you. The people complaining probably forgot to read the syllabus at the beginning... (hint hint)
Professor B is absolutely fantastic. If you do the work and put in the effort, you will pass with flying colors. Considering how many students take this course, seeing her long, thought out responses to submissions makes you feel important which is rare in any course. Thank you again professor B! G.P.
Professor Benedetti was without a doubt my favorite professor/instructor ever. She made the entire semester go by in a breeze. The syllabus is very simple to follow. As long as you do your assignments and turn them in ON TIME, you cannot fail. Easily accessible and a pleasure the entire time. You cannot go wrong selecting her class.
absolutely amazing professor, I adored her videos she posted and she just seemed like an amazing person. super light class, and the assignments are pretty fun to do
I wish I had taken this class earlier. It was so helpful and motivational, and it really puts your plans into perspective. All the information given will be helpful throughout your whole college life. Tip: Be sure to schedule your appointments with Career Services and an advisor during the first week of class.
She was a decent professor, but grading is very strict. The final project matters a lot, so pay close attention to the provided examples and follow the expectations closely.
