Reviews of professor Allison Johnson

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Knows the material well. She goes off track with anecdotes sometimes, but they're almost always entertaining and always short. She's fun and chill, and I never ended up skipping a class. The one downside is that none of the quizzes and non-major projects ended up on canvas, meaning you don't know what your actual grade is until the end.

Dr. J is a very decent teacher. She is understanding and will give you extensions if you need them! She makes her expectations clear, so there are no surprises. I did not really enjoy the class, but I think that's just because I don't like early American lit. Not her fault. She is a pretty good teaxcher (she also has a cute cat).

Great course! Best Bacc Core online class I have taken. Reading powerpoints, photocopied trxtbook pages, and watching videos mostly. Projects and assignments allow for creativity and make it not feel like a class really, but a fun activity.

Great professor. You definitely have to study but it is not terrible. The group project at the end of the semester brings up your grade! If you go to class that will also help your grade a lot. It brought my score up 3 points alone.

I have had Dr. J for 3 classes now at SJSU and she is by far my favorite professor. Not only have I learned so much in her class, but she is so genuine and truly cares about each student. The workload seriously is not that bad compared to other English classes and her lectures are actually pretty fun. She is so sweet and down to earth! TAKE HER

Super easy class but largely because the professor makes the material easy to understand and provides you with all the resources and guidelines needed. Leaves good feedback on discussion boards and interacts with students.

Hate her she does not care about you. She will straight up lie and tell you do not worry about taking notes then make you take a quiz before she posts the slides. Those are pop quizzes btw. She posts the slides after she is done talking about them. What sense does that make? NONE This is an elective for finance majors so take a different class.

For being an online class, this was INCREDIBLE. The textbook is pretty cheap, the material is very interesting, and Allison grades the easiest I have ever seen a professor grade. If you put at least a little effort in, you will get 100% on every assignment. I HIGHLY recommend this course.

I really appreciate how accessible this class is, Dr J has organized the online class perfectly, so it's easy to know expectations and to get things done! This was a great class where I learned a lot in a pain-free way. I do recommend this professor for any class! She really wants everyone to succeed and is very helpful.
