She teaches across the curriculum from English C1000 (freshman composition and critical thinking) to literature courses including Asian American Literature, U.S. Latinx Literature, Modern and Contemporary American Literature, and Children's and YA Literature, a course she developed while on her first sabbatical in 2010. From 2019 - 2026, she taught English in the Puente Project and co-coordinated the program with the Puente Counselor. She is also a former Adviser to Chabot College's Student Senate (student government) and former WRAC Center Coordinator. She has also served as Adviser to student clubs including GSA and the Puente Club. Shoshanna loves to read, travel, dance and stay active outside, and in the classroom, she loves encouraging students to develop their own writing voices and enjoy the art of literature. She also deeply loves la comunidad de Puente.
