She is easily the sweetest professor i have ever met. She creates such a bond with her students! She was evacuated because of the Santa Paula fire at 4:30 in the morning and still came to class. She is easily the best and I don't think I'll ever meet a strong woman like her.

She is one of the nicest profs I've had. It did annoy us students that she rambles a lot about her family's non profit, sometimes up to 5 minutes a class. She also has messy handwriting for feedback, which sucks. She also does not submit grades until end of semester, so I didn't know what I had in the class. Final is a 30 min group presentation.

Mrs. Shannon is great. She is very kind, and will have no problem handing out A's if she finds you to be a hard worker. I have handed in a few assignments that I certainly got a better grad than I deserved, just because she liked me. Dress well, raise your hand and participate, and go to office hours as much as you can and you will have no issues!

This class is very easy to pass. She also really cares about her students and wants everyone to get something out of her class. If you do the readings she assigns and show up to the workshops, you should be fine.

Professor Shannon is amazing at preparing you for business communication. Her class structure is engaging and the tests and projects challenging but rewarding. She clearly cares about her students and wants to see them succeed. The feedback she gives you on your work was very useful even for someone who is already a really strong writer.

Professor Shannon is one of the rare professors who is on your side. She is always willing to let you know what you are doing wrong and how to fix it, in a kind, understanding manner - however you have to make the effort to let her know you need help. Visiting office hours will ensure you will get a good grade.

Great professor, very caring and helps you with any question you have. Clear grading, she work for you not against you, so if you put your time in the assignments, you will get the grade. There's a group project, but everything else is individual work.

Professor Shannon was great. Her grading methods are very clearly laid out from the beginning. Mostly individual work with one group project. Shes very picky about grading so make sure you follow all the guidelines she has. She gives very good feedback on all assignments so you can improve your writing. Id definitely recommend taking her.

If you need to take ENGL 205, hurry up and sign up for her class, as her class will fill up fast. The overall course work included five canvas discussions, five news reports, eight straightforward quizzes, two writing assignments, one group project, and one research report. Although the workload sounds hefty, it's all simple work.

I LOVED THIS CLASS! Professor Shannon is such a gem and one of the sweetest professors I have had in my entire college career. I'm so sad she is retiring after the spring semester, if you have a chance to take her class I would! She made my first semester at CSUN a great experience!
