Reviews of professor Yoonha Shin

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
If you want to get better at writing this is not the course for you. If a grade for the heck of it matters only, go ahead. Bare minimum effort put forth by the prof. and says writing is completely subjective and there isn't anything to teach regarding thesis development or paragraph/ sentence structure. Class is about critical thinking not eng comp

She is a very nice person   and I have no doubt she knows what she's doing. That being said, I think she'd be a more effective professor if she was more concerned with teaching the subject at hand rather than using the time in class as a platform to espouse the tenants of social justice. I didn't have that in mind when I registered for this class.

Loved Prof Shin! Super easy A, just had to do all the work and give a little effort. Always offers extensions as long as you're trying your best. If you don't get an A you're probably just not trying. She's super kind and her lectures were very interesting. Comparable to a High School English class. Highly highly recommend!!

Being it an online class I never saw her in person but I loved Professor Shin! Very understanding, clear instructions, and flexible due dates. She let me redo my assignment and do better. Would love to take her again.

Great professor. So knowledgeable and caring. I graduated in 2022 but still remember her and the writing tips she taught me.

I took Dr. Shin's class as a challenger and got the credits transferred to a university in a different state. I can surely tell her class prepared me well for the classes I'm taking now. I learned a lot about writing skills and critical thinking (and academic writing IS critical thinking!). Her classes were intellectually stimulating.

There's weekly essays and four major essays. Tip: If you missed any of them email professor and catch up. Overall not a lot of work and professor is very lenient and understanding.
