Having been one of her students, I can attest to her infectious enthusiasm for the course material which created a classroom environment full of engaged learners. She has earned the love and respect of her students because she genuinely cares about each and every one of them - taking the time to learn every name and answer every question. She challenges her students to aim high, and does everything she can to help them succeed.”
