Reviews of professor Brianne Foster

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Being an English class, there's going to be a lot of papers, regardless of what professor you have. Foster's Eng102 class was okay. I remember doing a lot of group talks and you were literally graded by your participation or how much you talked/gave ideas in the group discussions. Her teaching styles aren't bad, just not my type of style.

Given that it is a writing class, expect the class to be graded mostly over papers. My biggest complaint was boring, drawn-out lectures. I felt like the amount of time on feedback was a little longer than I would have expected. Attendance is important and you will use the textbook for some minor assignments. Lots of group work and discussion.

If you're looking for a lenient and easy grader, Ms. Foster is the professor for you. And even though her grading is easy, you're writing skills will expand with her class. The only downside is that almost all of the essays are analytical papers, so if that's not your cup of tea, I'd go with a different professor.

Foster was a decent teacher and I thought the class was an easy A. You do have to read a lot and take a lot of notes, but it is easy to pass. She does give a lot of participation points, so you do have to attend class almost every class. The books are required but I honestly just found free PDFs online so don't waste the money on a hardcopy.

workload appropriate for ENG 102. all the assignments able to be revised for a higher grade if turned in on time. mostly shorter assignments that could be used in the final research paper. Taught us how to write effectively and gave useful feedback. Notes were useful. Lazy students did not do well. simply do your work and you will do well.

She has a weird and confusing grading portfolio system which I feel is more aimed for ease of mind rather than to help you realize how well you're doing in class. This is a paper-centered class with minor assignments I recommend you just do at the beginning of the semester so you can focus on the papers. Lots of group proofreading. Overall easy A.

Ms. Foster's class was very chill; however you cant take that for granted because there are lots of minor assignments and a paper every 2-3 weeks. Very lenient on due dates. If you keep up with the syllabus and pay attention during class this will be a breeze. She's understanding but the lectures are boring because the work is easy.
