Reviews of professor Sharon Tran

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Tran is an amazing professor! You do have to speak up in class as participation matters, but she is willing to accommodate if you are shy or afraid to speak up! She is organized, gives detailed feedback, and I would definitely take her again!

I had Prof. Tran for both ENGL369 and 469 and she is one of the best professors I've ever had. There is a lot of discussion/group based work, but she is open to feedback and gives very clear instructions for every assignment. She is knowledgeable and caring, and will work with you!

I love the way Tran asks open ended questions and allows the students to carry the conversation. Her grading requirements are clear and her feedback is detailed! I wish her style of teaching were the norm at UMBC for English classes.

Amazing course! She let the class lead the course through discussions. Lots of texts but all from authors of color! She is very fair and understanding: lenient on deadlines when asking for extensions. She gives 4 unexcused absences to everyone to 'skip' at no penalty. Very good class, better professor!

I took Professor Tran for ENGL 360 and her class was a catalyst for shaping my Asian American identity. She does have high standards when it comes to papers, but I'm a strong writer so that was never an issue. Despite the fact I never participated in class, I still got an A (but this is bc I got above 95% on every major assignment). She's amazing!
