Masters of Nursing Program
Personal and Professional Communications

You complimented us on giving feedback to our classmates during discussions and peer review but we just followed your footsteps. Your comments were always given with purpose and kindness, which I appreciated. I am better prepared to accept what lies ahead.

I believe that the amount of work and excellence that Lee expected required me to reach for the stars. The expectations were that I wanted to excel. I far exceeded my goals for this course because Ms. Bowman gave me the drive to always expect more from myself. I did not take her constructive criticism as insulting, but as a chance for me to improve academically. I truly have learned a great deal in Personal and Professional Communication and actually, will miss attending this class. The past two months sure flew by quickly! If you are reading this, good luck and have a great time with this class. You will love it by the end!

The instructor was outstanding. She made the flow of the materials go smoothly. I never felt overwhelmed. She guided me step by step in a very professional and organized manner. The support I personally received from her and from my classmates was outstanding.

Over all this was a great class, Ms. Lee you are obviously well qualified to teach us the material. I appreciated all the additional links to sites that enhanced the material in the book.

As a teacher, I appreciated how you responded to the inquiries; the answers were meant to entice us to think, rather than spoon-feed us the information. I felt you responded to us with empathy and encouragement, validating without taking sides. This was a positive learning experience and I am glad I had you as my teacher. Thank you.

This class was a great experience for me after not taking any courses in over fifteen years, I appreciated all the help that Lee gave me. I learned from your comments and hope that I will improve in my writing technique.

Thanks to Lee for the patience and honest feedback on papers, and for pushing me ‘just a little further’ in my writing.

Lee, you have been a great instructor and I can’t believe all the time and energy you put into your class.  You are one of a kind.  Thanks and I will keep your email, in case I run into writers block.

Take every piece of advice that Lee gives them to heart (and to bookmark the APA website).  Thanks, Lee, for a wonderful class.  I really did enjoy it!

I enjoyed Lee’s teaching style. She allowed for and encouraged opinions to be shared and topics to be further explored.

Early on, you established a high standard. I knew this class was going to be tough and this inspired me to give 100% with every submission. I learned more as a result.

You held us accountable to due dates, etc and I am better organized as a result.

Lee, I just want to personally thank you for such a great learning experience. I really enjoyed taking your class, and all your good advice, and your examples really helped me to grow, and to become a better communicator.

Thanks for your feedback and pointers with grammar, writing, and esp. APA. Every time that I will do anything with APA, I will always think of you :-). Thanks once again.

Lee, you were an excellent instructor. I am glad to have had this experience.

I have learned so much from all of my colleagues in here and Lee is the best! She has made me reach farther of myself than I thought I was able to, and for that I will be forever grateful! :-)  Thank you to Lee,

Lee, thank you for all your help and guidance, I enjoyed the class and I believe I have learned a great deal over the last 8 weeks.

Lee, you have been helpful and available. My expectations were to feel very distant from an online instructor but, you have been so approachable. Thank you for making the transition to online learning so easy.

I have learned so much this past 8 weeks.  I really appreciate your helpful comments and suggestions.  This class has given me a great starting point for the many papers I will be writing in the future (and let's not forget discussion postings!).
