Thanks so much for your gentle leadership in these 2 very hard classes. You are the best! ~Vickie W.

I’ll second that!! ~Trish P. For making this course a valuable experience. You are one of

the best instructors I’ve encountered in a long career of college courses I’ve previously taken. Thanks Again. ~Steve P.

Thank you so much for all of the help you provided during these two difficult courses. You’re a valuable asset to the university and I hope our paths cross again. God Bless You! ~Tina H.

Thank you so much for your support and guidance with these two courses. It was very challenging, and with your “down to earth” approach to assisting, it really helped me understand and realize that I wasn’t far off with my thinking. Mikie R.
