Emailing Professors

All communications should be conducted through BMCC channels- your school email, our Blackboard page, Blackboard Collaborate, or other associated course software like Zoom.

Even though we'll be speaking during Zoom meetings, in discussion boards, or in break-out rooms, you'll probably be emailing me most frequently, I'd wager that your primary method for communicating with most of your professors will be via email. So, it's essential that you learn to email professors correctly. You don't want to inadvertently alienate your professor with a rude email or fail to receive a helpful response because of an unclear email.

In this video, I will walk you through and explain all the steps necessary for crafting an appropriate, professional, and effective email to your professor.
