She shouldn't be teaching college level English. This class didn't prepare me for Eng 1B. She was always abscent & arrived late to a 1-hour class often.

This is why I enjoy English classes! Bosson is humorous and ardent about teaching and the material. Facilitated great class discussions; we could speak our mind about topics important to us. Few arguments occurred because course material expanded our ideas on individual opinion. She is sympathetic to the student lifestyle; always willing to help.

Tried her best to get this early AM class's attention and critical thinking skills engaged, but there was an unfortunate predominance of apathetic students.

A decent English professor, although her dislike of men shows through sometimes a bit much. A feminist activist professor, her English courses are loaded with political overtones and she sometimes preaches more than she teaches. While the foundation of her teaching is solid, she is harder on the men than on the women, leading to unfair grading.

She is a really nice and funny Professor. Classes are fun and relaxed. She is really understanding. You can tell that she tries to make classes and homework as manageable as possible.

Was looking forward to learning about the American dream from multiple perspectives, but ending up learning about the white nuclear family for the majority of the course. Got behind on grading, canceled class multiple times without sufficient notice, and would arrive late to almost every class. Felt like a waste of my time.

Lots of homework

She is a great professor, gives good lectures, and the materials we read are very interesting. However, she is in paperland and is very intimidated by technology. She hands out a lot of paper and is resistant to uploading instructions and assignments on canvas. Terrible grading; I still don't know what my grade is and our class has ended (N/A onl)

Amazing lectures
So many papers

Unfair grading. I was one of the hardest working students. Read all the assigned materials and turned in all homeworks on time while many don't. Only missed 1 class entire semester. Done all assigned workshops, even the ones she cancelled because others students were lacking behind. It is unfair that those who turn in HW late still get good grades.

Usually late, frequently cancels with short/no notice. Grade is based only on whether assignments were completed. She'll note at the top that the writing is great but doesn't provide any actual feedback, so if you're looking to grow as a student/writer you should look elsewhere. If you're only here for the grade, this is your class.

Professor Bosson is an engaging instructor who makes the class fun and manageable. While grading can be strict, attending lectures and using resources like unstuck study for study prep go a long way. Recommended for students willing to put in the work.

Had her for 2 semesters. I think she's…okay…To be honest, her lectures don't really go anywhere, nor does it seem like its structured properly. The subjects she covers are kind of mundane and very similar to her other classes; nothing really changes. She does have a great personality though, and assignment aren't strict by deadlines.

Professor Bosson makes an effort to memorize your name. She doesn't assign much work, but be prepared to get called on and discuss the readings in class (like most English classes). Her class structure isn't the most organized, but I didn't mind it. If you are looking for a chill and engaging professor who likes to tell stories, take her!

I took her English class simply because I could get an easy A. My cumulative GPA at CCSF is over 3.0 now. If you also want to get a good grade like me too, then please take any English classes with her. Highly recommended.
