One of the sweetest professors ever. I couldn't have asked for a better literature teacher for my first semester at BC. She made class engaging, brought unique perspectives, and was incredibly understanding!!

Amazing and caring teacher who is fun inside and outside of class! Couldn't recommend more strongly!

Professor Boesky is the sweetest woman at Boston College. She genuinely cares about what she teaches and is genuinely curious about what you have to say. If you feel stuck on a paper, just go to her office hours and talk it out. She is a fair grader and I would take this class again.

Boesky is great! She is a wonderful person. First paper was tough but if you respond to her feedback on following assignments you’ll succeed. I recommend going to office hours week one or two. Additionally, don’t be scared to participate in class; you’ll grow as a result!
