I found my time in Marc Bojanowski's class to be incredibly helpful. In his ENG 1A course we had to write 3 essays. After submitting first drafts Marc would give us all feedback and pointers on our papers. After which we were then able to revise those papers. Thanks to him I have a much clearer understanding of how to properly write an essay.

He is one of the best English professors I've had to date. He is very helpful on word choice and essay construction. Because he also teaches critical thinking, he can break down the meaning of words and how to connect them to the material. I will definitely be taking more classes from him!

Loved this class! brought back my love for writing, He was really kind and cared for his students. we read 2 books and analyzed them and wrote a total of 4 essays. Gave good feedback and explained what my essay needed/expressed what was good about the essay. Grading was pretty weird but it worked out.

TAKE MARC! One of the best professors EVER. Loved his grading criteria because you actually learn and improve from it. Do not procrastinate and take advantage of the grading system. Consisted of two great books, 4 essays (with guidance) and small easy side work. Cannot explain enough how amazing this class was.

While Marc is a great professor if he likes you, he oftentimes holds certain students to an unreasonably high standard based on arbitrary criteria. For example, he marked me down 10% for missing an indentation while giving another student a 97 for an arguably worse essay. I checked his essay and mine with professionals and they said mine was better

Overall great teacher. I enjoyed the class and it definitely helped me improve my writing. Textbooks are needed, you can buy them from the bookstore or another website as long as the ISBN's are the same. The lectures are worth attending. Grading criteria is clear. Asks for students opinions during class. Discussions are meaningful and voluntary.

Loved this class and him! Grading system was unique and allowed you to improve in your writing, while also earning the credit back. Keeping up with the readings, writing center visits, etc is best to keep a good grade as well and avoid stress lol. He's very intelligent and I loved his lectures.

Marc truly wants all of his students to succeed, and it shows in the structure of the class. If you're looking to better yourself as I writer, I recommend! Although, I frequently encountered him changing expectations of assignments, with instructions being hazy. A specific structure is expected. Very kind guy, enjoyed my time in his class!

Bojanowski is funny and made class super interesting. He gives no exams and the four essays we had were super easy to write and had interesting prompts. I loved his class and it made me a better writer.

Awesome proff!!! I'd recommend him to anyone! His lectures are sort of all over the place but he always seems to wrap them in a nice little bow by the end. We covered incredibly interesting topics and I came to almost every class because I enjoyed it so much!

I had Bojanowski for English 1A and 5. He's an incredible teacher. His lectures are very engaging. It's definitely a class that you need to try hard in, but it's all very educational. He is very open to feedback to make sure assignments and deadlines work. He takes the time to check in with students personally and ensure everyone is learning.
