Reviews of professor Ayanna Dozier

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Dozier definitely gives off a very intimidating vibe, especially during the first class. But she really cares about the students and if you try the class is actually really interesting. Tough grader, but if you go to office hours she'll be more than happy to help and it'll help your grade a lot.

I took this class in order to see if a Communications major was something I was interested in. Professor Dozier was incredibly harsh and somehow managed to blame all of the class for doing the assignment wrong when the instructions were very unclear. She was unnecessarily rude and did not teach material that was on par with an introductory class.

Professor Dozier is tough, but I ended up loving her class. Yes, you have to work hard and grading is tough, but your grades will go up if you listen to her feedback on assignments. There's a strong chance I'll end up majoring or minoring in comm because of her. She's passionate about her studies which makes class 10 times better. SHOW UP TO CLASS!

I wanted these reviews to be wrong but unfortunately Professor Dozier lived up to them. While she is a very smart woman, she is a really tough grader and a very stubborn teacher. In this class, if your opinion strays from hers, it is wrong and she will grade you accordingly. She's a smart person but is quite rude and unclear about her instructions.

Professor Dozier is an extremely opinionated person. She knows what she is expecting but won't actually convey it to her students. It's your responsibility to decipher her opinions and conform your writings to them. She's also very rude if you get on her bad side. Don't take her unless you're a serious communications major who wants a challenge.

There was a heavy lack of communication but Prof. Dozier is very passionate. I do believe though that the pandemic and the format of the course really took a toll on her and she tried her best to make the course somewhat understandable and enjoyable. I think if it was a normal semester and health wasn't a concern it would be have been run better

Extremely hard grader for an introductory required core class. If you are taking this class just fulfill a core requirement, dont take it because you will be forced to work harder than some science classes and you will not be rewarded for your effort.

Amazing. The most honest, straight up person. I knew what she expected and the way the class was going to look by the end of the first class, eliminating the usual guesswork involved. A breath of fresh air who actually understands being a student and knows how to balance teaching all the material while also keeping it engaging
