Amazing teacher, she really cares about her students and explains everything in detail. Comm 88 is said to be the hardest pre-req because of the course content, yet she taught it in a way that was understandable and reviewed a lot of the content to make sure we understood. Really kind and easygoing, she was accessible in office hours and offered EC

The class was very unorganized and the whole class was confused. She went on tangents and her ven diagrams were hard to understand. Be careful!

Nicole's class is a mess. The midterm average was a 70 (after her removing questions that were unfair), and afterwards she blamed the low score on us rather than reflecting on her own teaching skills. She does not take constructive criticism well and just AVOID HER AT ALL COSTS!

Excellent professor, although there is a lot of material in the course, if you take advantage of office hours, ask questions, and participate as you would need to since you're in college, it'll be good. It's a lower division but take it serious because this is a very important class! 8/10 recommend

two weeks into summer classes and I am so lost. Shes a nice person... but her lectures are too confusing. i do understand that research methods is tough to teach, and that this is her first time teaching it... :/ too much information with not much that is straight to the point, not enough examples that are clear (she makes them up on the spot)
