Testimonials

  • “Thanks for a really great class. You are one of the best teachers I've ever had - not just at Harvard, but anywhere. The course was so well structured, the readings/discussions were vital to the learning, the small group work was incredibly helpful, the guest speakers were outstanding, and your passion and expertise kept each session exciting and challenging. Easily the best of many great courses I've taken at the Department of Continuing Education.”

  • “Thank you so much for the opportunity to take the class. I learned so much and it really gave me insight into what journalism is all about. I also wanted to let you know I read your article "Objectivity is a Privilege Afforded to White Journalists." I thought this was such an important and crucial story and as a Latina I felt very strongly when reading. I was also in DC in 2020 when the George Floyd protests hit and I was out almost everyday protesting. I saw the snipers lined up on the roof of the white house, the military that leered at protesters, and the fully equipped policemen who seemed to just be waiting for a reason to hurt people. Reading your article really reminded me of this and I thought it was just so powerful the standpoint you took. Thank you again for everything, anyone who gets to be your student is very lucky!”

  • “Thanks so much for a great two weeks - [I] really enjoyed having you as a teacher. You were especially engaging and I appreciated that you didn't keep the sessions too long. It was super fun to be able to write my article about an issue that I care about. I liked the process and was very nice to read your feedback too. Thanks again for the classes over the last two weeks - hope to be taught by you again sometime in the future!”

  • “I just wanted to send an email to let you know how much I loved this course. Writing the article was very new and fun for me… The lessons were very informative and the activities really highlighted what we were learning. I was a little intimidated just because it was a course from Boston University but you were a wonderful instructor. You pulled the best end product for everybody's stories and I am so glad I got to be a part of this!”
