She is energetic and takes the time to get to know you, total people person. I would highly recommend taking this class, it was interesting and a good use of my time (rare to find in a 50+ student lecture).",

Most importantly, you feel like you are seen, heard, and felt no matter who you are when you are in her class and that is rare for some of us on this campus. We are truly lucky to have her at UW",

She always makes jokes or does funny dances to pep us up when we're not talkative. And now about her teaching - incredible. She is full of love and passion. Rare to find nowadays; take it, you won't regret it.",

She is always there for students and challenges us to have deep discussions in class. If you do not want to think, do not take her class. If you don't mind talking a bit to your peers take this, the grading is fair, and the lectures are interesting.",
