Reviews of professor Emily Johnston

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Emily is a good professor. She genuinely cares about what she is teaching and gives students a better understanding of class topics. However, know that she does absolutely no grading and your grade is completely dependent on your TA. From what I've heard, she is probably a better option than Strom for DOC 1.

She gave a very clear break down of how to write our essays and was very helpful during office hours.

Dr. Emily is an amazing professor. She clearly outlines what is expected on each assignment, and is very accommodating. Lectures are interesting and relevant to the class material. She provides many resources for extra help, and overall makes her classes a breeze.

Dr. Emily is a solid choice for DOC. She is passionate and knows what she's talking about. She's always ready to clarify if needed and really cares for her students. Will definitely take her for the rest of the series.

Dr. J is the best DOC lecturer! She's engaging, genuine, and is actively working to make UCSD better. Her lectures are helpful but don't stress if you miss a lecture card, there's lots of ways to make it up with extra credit. She also podcasts and will have everything you need on Canvas. TAs grade everything but in terms of lecture pick Dr. Emily!

She is very understanding and definitely cares about her students and what she's teaching. All the DOC classes use the same material, so it doesn't matter too much who you take, but I prefer her over Strom. How you'll do in the class is dependent of your TA though, they do the grading.
