    Quarter Taken: Fall 2023 In-Person
    Grade: N/A

    Professor Cohen is a good lecturer, and the material is presented in an understandable format. However, the textbook is not provided with inclusive access, which makes finding readings a bit challenging. My TA Mary Shannon is great, and she is super helpful. Overall, English 10B with Cohen is a good fit for English majors, and a good TA really makes the class worthwhile.
