A great professor who cares about his students!
Gus is more than fair on grading and is always willing to work with you. I highly recommend him!
Gus was without a doubt the best professor I've had at EWU. He cares so genuinely about his students and his career. I highly recommend him for any class. No textbook and not too many assignments either.
I have never rated a professor, but feel the need to right now. Gus is the best professor I have had in my entire life. He is very encouraging, passionate, and truly cares about the well-being of his students. He understands that everyones schedule is different and is very flexible with due dates. Wish I could have taken every class with Gus.
I loved his class. I learned so much from him. It is not a sit and lecture sort of class but did a lot of projects. I would love to take another class with him.
I feel like he did not know how to teach online.
I could only click 3 tabs but if I could click more I would add caring, amazing lectures, and accessible. This man truly cares about each and every student. You dont have to try to pay attention because you want to learn from him. If you have the opportunity to take a class with him DO IT. I guarantee youll walk away a better version of you.
Gus is the most amazing professor, mentor, friend that you will ever have. I swear I could nominate him for a teacher award and all his previous students would support. He is kind, smart, and respectful. Gus makes every class so much fun, he is always acknowledging student opinions and class is always engaging. Happy to end my senior year with him
By far one of my favorite professors at EWU. Gus cares so much about his students and is willing to spend his own time and effort to work with you. He is so knowledge about the subjects he teaches and will prepare you to be a good teacher. If you have the chance, you need to take him!
He makes class engaging and fun in a light hearted way. He truly puts in the effort to help you succeed. If you can take a class with Gus, take it!
I cannot recommend Gus enough. He is a thoughtful professor who truly cares the most for his students. Gus is very knowledgeable in the material that he teaches, and he is there to help you every step of the way. If you have the opportunity to have Gus as a professor, you are very lucky! You will learn so much from him in so many different ways.
I love Gus! He's such a genuinely caring person and cares about all of this students deeply. He has great experience in the teaching field, knows so much, and will share his expertise with you:) I loved all the classes I had with him and will miss him! He even throws a party at his house at the end of his time with you, it's a great time!:)
Gus is the best professor I have had at eastern and is always willing to give you the extra support. He makes the class fun and engaging the entire quarter!
Gus is one of the best educators in the education department at EWU. He is an inspiration to all his students and has all the qualities of an amazing educator. He is kind, and respectful and truly wants the best for all his students, you will feel welcomed and comforted by just his presence. I graduated 2022, him&ashley leipisi were the best part!
Gus is a professor who teaches with you in mind. He is very passionate and cares deeply about you. He wants us to become the best teachers we can be and will support you both in and outside of class.
Gus was a fantastic professor. He values you and makes a relationship with all his students. He gives detailed feedback. He is also very passionate about his profession. Would take him again if I could.
Gus was one of my favorite professors that I have ever had at EWU. His lectures were super helpful and inspirational. You can truly see how much he cares for his students and how much he loves teaching us how to become teachers. His classes were really engaging, and we did lots of group assignments. He is also extremely accessible outside of class.
Gus is one of the best professors I have had at Eastern. He truly cares about all of his students and makes sure you can succeed. You will learn so much from any class you take with him. I learned a lot from this classroom management class. Make sure to participate and show up to his classes or you will probably miss out on a fun lesson.
Gus is by far one of the best professors I have had at EWU. He genuinely cares about each of his students and has perfected his teaching style. You will learn so much about inquiry based teaching, as well as tips on becoming a well rounded teacher. I look forward to the next class I get to take with Gus!
Gus is one of the best teachers I have had at Eastern and is the best in the program. He is the only teacher I feel that is actually looking out for his students. He responds to messages quickly and never makes you feel bad for having them. The work you have to do in his class feels important. Gus is the best!!!!
Dr.Nollmeyer has been the best professor I had throughout my time in college. He is flexible and a very caring person. I have learned so much from him.
I have had Gus for a couple classes and he is always so caring and helpful. Very accessible outside of class. One thing that I do love is how he talks about how we grow and learn from experience and implements that into his class by giving you the opportunity to always resubmit work.
Gus is one of those professors who understand that we are adults with an outside life that may affect your participation but when you communicate to him he finds a middle to the solution that works for every student. He also makes sure to say hello to every student. He cares about education and it shows in the classroom and online.
Very unclear when it comes to projects. Rubrics will not give you what you need.
Gus is super awesome at his job! He always makes time for his students.There are some tough projects but it is all worth it because there is not much homework and only a final project no testing.
i have had gas for about 3 to 4 classes and he is one of the best professors i have ever had at eastern. you can clearly see that he loves teaching and how much he cares for his students. he is kind and understanding. gus is very knowledgeable and i see the importance behind all the tasks we do in his classes.
Gus is a very caring professor and does give you time when needed if you reach out and communicate with him in advance. He tries and you can definitely tell he does. He provides excellent materials and puts the time and effort into his class.
This was by far one of the most beneficial classes, and it definitely has to do with how much effort and time Gus provides. I have never been one to take from a class and apply it to real life, but this class especially Gus has provided amazing materials that I apply or try to apply everything into my practicum.
Gus' classes are always amazing! There was a time in the quarter where I was asking for help from him three hours before the assignment and he helped happily even though I was irresponsible with my time management. He's definitely the best professor I've had in all my years at EWU!
Gus is a great professor, he is easily accessible outside of class, grades fairly and provides amazing course content. If you have the opportunity to take him to any of your classes, do it!
Gus is an amazing professor who truly cares about his students. He wants to see us succeed and will help you get there. I will definitely miss having him after graduating!
Gus is a respectable professor who clearly teaches with a passion. He is prompt with his grading and feedback, and is always reachable for any questions you have related to the class, or for any other questions. I definitely recommend taking a class with Gus!
Gus Nollmeyer is an amazing professor who practices what he preaches. Throughout his courses he models every strategy and method that he is teaching. Gus is super supportive when it comes to assignments and although some of the assignments are challenging (because they are large concepts to grasp) he helps and gives resources as much as he can.
Gus is one of my favorite professors in the education program. He has some of the best feedback and answers questions clearly and gives clear feedback and clear expectations.

I love the in class work that we do. I would highly recommend!
Gus is always open to helping you, even if it's late at night or on the weekends, he will respond within minutes for clarification. His canvas sheet is easy to follow and all of his directions are very clear, with many links attached.
Gus is very understanding and if your need extra time for assignments he will work with you. I don't think I have ever had such an understanding professor until him. 10/10 recommend!
Fun in-class work. Yes, lots of group projects but most of the time you get to pick your partners. You'll get a good grade as long as you go to class and participate. Gus always has a good attitude and is excited to teach. Overall great class.
We get to do so many fun projects and see the strategies we are learning to use which is helpful to be able to transfer what we read about to our classroom. He is a funny guy and friendly. It can be hard work, but it is such a good class.
I have had three classes with Professor Nollmeyer (Gus) so far, and I have loved all of them! He is very understanding and truly cares about helping students succeed and get better. He is always available to talk outside of class if you need help. He is very knowledgeable about what he teaches and the classes and hands-on and engaging!
Gus was an excellent professor and he made one of my least favorite subjects a BLAST. We did all sorts of cool projects (no spoilers here!) and he taught us how to integrate these truly memorable academic projects into our own teaching. He gives good feedback, is understanding, and truly cares for every student and wants them to be successful.
He's an amazing professor and is definitely willing to help as long as you are willing to put in the work and effort that is needed. He's a pretty hard grader but he will almost away let you try again and return in things.
He's an amazing professor! He's so interactive when it comes to in class activates and we have a lot of fun. He gives clear instructions and also clear grading criteria. Overall he's awesome always willing to help and make sure everyone is doing alright.
Gus was a phenomenal professor, and I'm very glad I had him. His projects are fascinating and extremely thoughtful, bringing light back to learning that may have been lost in recent years. He is considerate and flexible, easy to reach, and is as explicit as you need on directions. Only challenge was keeping up with the readings, otherwise amazing!
Gus is an awesome professor! By far my favorite I have ever had! He made this class so enjoyable. There was a lot of hands on activities we did in class which helped learning about classroom management so much easier. 1000/1000 recommend taking his classes!
This class was so much fun! We did a lot of hands on work in class relating to projects (Inquiry, discrepant events, etc.). He gives great feedback and is flexible with late work as long as you talk with him. Gus is so caring and helpful, I had some issues that set me back in my program and he was there to just be a listening ear. He's my favorite!
Great professor who is extremely organized in his own work.
Gus' passion for teaching and social studies is evident in how he conducts his class. I found this class to be inspirational and fun. There were a few group projects which were fun and engaging. Gus gives you everything you need to be successful in his class. If you have a chance to take a course with him I would not pass it up.
Gus is a wonderful professor. He has a calming and gentle appearance, which is nice as a student. He is helpful and always patient. Gus responds promptly and answers questions that students may have. As a student, I can tell that Gus enjoys his job and teaching future teachers. Gus has a great personality and makes his students laugh.
Gus is probably the best professor I've had thus far at EWU. He is incredibly knowledgeable and you can tell by the way he teaches and prepares for class that he truly cares about each of his students. He doesn't have heavy workloads just reading to keep up on. 10/10 professor!!
