Professor Thomas is one of the best professors I've ever had. She genuinely cares about you and will go out of her way to help you. She did a GREAT job with the zoom environment. She asked the class how much time we would like on our test and one kid said 4 hours, so that's what we got! She gives lot's of participation and attendance points.

Professor Thomas loves what she does and it reflects in the way she teaches her class. I loved her class and would recommend everyone to take her class, she's awesome.

She always encourages participation, very clear on her grading, very organized and always ready to lecture. I really enjoyed her class. She made my summer class looks so easy. You wont regret attending her classes.

She will go out of her way to help and encourage everyone and likes to be questioned.

Prof Thomas was an amazing teacher. She will do more than her best to transmit the message. Always open to discussion, and always there to help.

She is amazing

She is awesome!!!

Awesome and exemplary.

Overall best professor I've ever taken since attending mc, very genuine person

absolutely yes.

One of the best Professors i've come across. Very professional and patience and makes it easy to understand her teaching.

Somehow makes Zoom classes tolerable. Takes time to familiarize herself with each student, empowering them to contribute their ideas and emotions to class discussions. Compassionate, responsive, knowledgeable, and sensitive to students' needs. Be prepared to attend (and participate in) every class; your grade will sink otherwise. 9/10.

Very Calm class

Professor Thomas is a really nice and respectful professor. I think that she is extremely helpful and tries her best to help her students, I think that the issue majority of the time is the students. Like all she requires of us if you're taking her class online is, showing up to zoom and keeping your camera on while participating during class time.

Professor Thomas made zoom classes engaging. Be ready to show up and participate in class, your grade depends on it

she cares about your success wholistically.

Dr. Thomas is AMAZING all our assignments were due in class and the exam was outside of class and open note. however, attendance does matter because you are graded on participation so be prepared to engage during this zoom class. overall I recommend you taking this class because she's so GOOD!

My best MC lecturer

Professor Thomas is one of those professors who cares more about your learning and wellbeing than your grade or status as a student, which makes it very easy to be her student. The class was participation and discussion-based which made it very easy to communicate with peers and build interpersonal relationships as well.

I loved my class with Dr. Thomas she cares about you and will start off with asking about how your day is. you don't get homework besides reading the chapters you need to read. exams are open note and we are graded for participation and showing up to class. THIS WAS NOT FOR PSYCH 102 it was PSYCH 228!

I took this class online and she does require us to talk and have our cameras on but other than that this class is not stressful at all and I would highly recommend it. She encourages participation and sharing your thoughts, she creates a really safe environment; and all in all, it was an enjoyable class.

Professor Thomas is by far one of the best professors I've had the pleasure to meet. She teaches the content while maintaining a sense of community within the class. After taking her class, my standards for professors have skyrocketed.

Dr. Thomas is an incredibly compassionate, knowledgable person and an AMAZING professor! She is very understanding and it's clear she cares about her students. Assignments and discussions are completed in-class and we had three open-note unit exams outside of class. The course was manageable and enjoyable. I would highly recommend Dr. Thomas!

shes nice and talks about interesting things

Her teaching is amazing and very clear. She helped reduce the stress on the students with the was she teaches everybody needs to take her class

Professor Thomas was very encouraging for student's participation. Attendance plays a big role in your grade so make sure you attend all classes. Very low stress as she encourages this class is. Would highly recommend taking her class to peers.

Very caring and kind professor

She is sweet and there is barely any homework only take home exams. Participation is extremely important and does impact your grade.

Very organized in her approach on how she wants to teach the class. Also very thoughtful and understanding.

The professor is really nice. This is the second class I've taken with her and I've had a great experience both times. She calls her class "low stress, high participation", and that definitely true. There is a lot of participation and in class reading, but nothing too difficult to handle. I would recommend this professor to anyone!

She's very sociable, if you're not very talkative thats a habit you'll have to drop.

exam was 51% there was no home-work, all you have to do is to read what she told you and listen in the class for the lecture (or sometimes you don't need to focus too much) easy class, but you have to do good in the exam

Best professor I had yet, her class is easy to comprehend yet very informational. She is very mindful of her student's personal and professional paths in and out of class. I loveddd this class and professor!

She is one of the best professors I've had. Her classes are no stress, meaning no homework or quizzes just unit exams. She grades for participation as you have to attend classes to receive a grade. attendance is not mandatory, but she does grade for it. Overall she is truly an amazing professor who genuinely cares about her students.

She's so kind and amazing. Take her for sure!

She is a kind professor

clear instructions and great material

she was alright.

Professor Thomas is an amazing professor who is extremely friendly, knowledgeable in her field, and always available to assist with any questions. Although the exams can be challenging, they are open notes, so don't let that discourage you. I recommend taking a class with Professor Thomas for an enjoyable and straightforward learning experience.

Professor Thomas is a very amazing instructor! Instead of just stating information, she gives us a clear explanation through well developed presentations and engaging questions. She makes us relate our own experiences to the content we learn, in order for us to understand to the best of our ability! Thank you Professor!

Professor Thomas is such a cool person and so understanding. She is always happy and very cheery while she teaches her class. You can definitely feel her passion for psychology as she teaches! I definitely enjoyed myself taking her class and also while completing her assignments.

The class did not interfere with other classes as almost all work was done in class and was a participation grade. The workload is great for taking other difficult classes.

-very kind teacher -easy to talk to -accommodating for disabilities and other things going on in life -cares for students -great teaching for those with learning disorders Professor Thomas is an amazing teacher and you definitely should take her psych classes, even if you're not a psych major. This class helped me learn more about myself and others

Professor Thomas is an excellent professor. She encourages her students to be involve in the lectures by sharing thoughts and ideas. She uses life examples in her lectures. She follows the syllabus that she hands out in the beginning of the semester, and doesn't add any surprise assignments or test. Was an easy class to pass.

Although the exams are open book and open web, answers for the half of questions are not on class material. However, her lecture and personality are very nice.

Prof. Thomas was really great. I had her for PYSC 203. It was a zoom class but she was very caring and always wanted to hear from you and how you are doing. She is genuinely a sweet person and wants you to succeed. It is not a high stress course at all and I appreciated her work ethic.

BEST PROFESSOR EVERRRRR!! I wish every professor was like her. She is very realistic, and I enjoy every second of her class. Lectures are pretty easy. It was a remote class, so it was a high-participation class. She is also a very fast grader. I also took 227 with her. I definitely recommend her. Outside readings aren't a lot; exams are open-book.

This professor is absolutely awesome! She cares about her students and makes the class stress free and fun! I absolutely loved her lectures and my class in particular was really supportive and great! Professor Thomas made sure that we as a class got to know each other even gave much of her time to help us succeed moving forward. Would take again!

I really enjoyed my professor and it was an honor been your student

I was ecstatic with her class; she was empathetic and consistently ensured that we were well-adjusted. She never made me feel inadequate for asking questions, and while her class is not particularly demanding, participation is a significant component.

Dr. Thomas is the best PSYC professor at MC!! She is knowledgeable, funny, and caring. This is a high participation class and Prof. Thomas values everyone's voice and opinion. If you want a stress-free class this is the perfect class to take. Also, Prof. Thomas made sure everyone has their tools and resources to succeed in college. One of the best!

Professor Thomas cares about her students, she genuinely wants to make sure that everyone understands the material and pass the class. Read the material and show up to class everyday and you will get the grade that you deserve.

Super nice professor who actually cares. Attendance and participation is key though so if you know you skip classes a lot then maybe she is not for you. No assingments and exams are on blackboard and she gives you a whole week. If you miss it for whatever reason, theres also a makeup and she drops your lowest grade.

You can tell Professor Thomas cares about her students. Participation is imperative. This is not a class you can log in to and have running in the background. You will be actively working on collaborative spreadsheets and typing in the chat from the beginning to the end of class. She describes it as "low stress, high participation".

Professor Thomas is such an amazing, sweet teacher. Her class was very heavy on participation and your attendance matters quite a bit, but it was very enjoyable overall. She offers a make-up exam for those in need! She is very responsive and understanding. Not much homework. 10/10 class.

Professor Thomas is a knowledgeable and engaging instructor. They create a positive learning environment where students feel encouraged to participate and explore the course material. I found their lectures to be well-organized and their explanations clear. I would recommend taking a course with Professor Thomas.

Professor Thomas is amazing. She fostered community even on Zoom and always emphasized that this was a low-stress, high-participation course. She genuinely cares about students, is clear about expectations, and makes learning feel supportive and meaningful. I'd take every class with her if I could.

Genuinely wants students to succeed.

if you forget a Planning doc, its okay. there's two "planning units" and if you forget one (like I did) she takes away the lowest grade. She also provides a lot (A LOT) of extra credit if you turn in assignments early. great teacher

This professor was amazing! Great experience.

This professor's material is very simple, but don't slack off, as long as you get the work done on time and read the grading criteria you should get an A. I never read the textbook and only did the assignments and got an A. It's very few easy assignments, must turn things on time though, no exceptions to that. Easy extra credit opportunities too.

She was one of the best teachers I had this semester. She's an excellent professor who always finds ways to help you understand the topics and teaches in a unique way, making the lectures both entertaining and interesting. I highly recommend taking her class.

Dr. Thomas is an excellent teacher. The readings aren't heavy and are very well connected to what she teaches in class. Participation is very important, so reading the textbook and the articles she gave us is crucial. She makes students feel unique and important. I recommend her class 100%.

Prof really wanted students to succeed . She started class having students rate how they were feeling. Then in chat what they were planning to do over the weekend and then we had to reply to two students . We really got to know the other students . If you don't like to communicate orally - I would not take the class. That was a challenge 4 me

Great professor! Made PSYC100 very engaging and easy to follow. Thank you!

She is the sweetest professor I know, she really loves to connect with her students and makes you feel involved. Just be ready to read out loud at times. Please attend every class, you do get points for participating and now showing up can really Impact your grade

Prof. Thomas is an amazing professor! She made the class super easy to navigate. There are only a few assignments for this class and it will help to know more about the topic you are studying for. The only downside is that this is fully online class and it feels pretty lonely. But, if you are looking a class for credit, this is perfect.

The professor has a clear teaching plan, grading criteria, and different class participation plans, such as discussions, exams, and homework. The teacher also responds to every post.

She is an awesome professor - truly one of a kind. I have never met another professor like her.

She is a very considerate professor. I took her during my summer semester and I had no problems at all. It's a high participation class at a slow pace, so if you prefer a fast moving class, she is not for you. Highly recommended! No questions is a dumb question so always be confident to ask.

Prof. Thomas is truly the most caring person ever. Her acknowledgement towards her students feels nice. For grading she follows a rubric, and gives good feedback. Her class is a “High Participation, Low Stress” class, which is nice if you balance more than 1. Will answer all questions. Pls take her!

I thoroughly enjoyed her lectures, and she was an exceptional professor. I eagerly anticipate taking her class again in the fall.

Amazing professor. Learned a lot when given articles to read. Two units containing multiple articles that is discussed in discussion boards. Her grading criteria was easy to understand and follow. She does drop one lowest grade assignment. Make sure you read the assigned articles and interact with peers. You will get an easy A if you do!

she is the best professor ever.

she repeats this phrase --> "low stress high participation" , she means it literally.

She gives clear instructions and gives you enough time to complete assignments. She helps students out when they are struggling on an assignment.

She is an amazing professor. I had a great professor. I wish all Montgomery professors could be like her. She is so warm! I have a lots of good things to say about her OMG...

This professor was absolutely amazing I would take her again three more times if I needed to. She keeps the class fun and engaging, attendance is mandatory if you miss so many classes, but besides that she is super understanding of everyone's needs and jobs etc. Her teaching methods remain almost like a weekly schedule which is super helpful.

She's so sweeet I love her. I would definitely take her class again. If you want a very encouraging professor, she's the one !

I admire this Professor's work ethic and that this course is more participation-heavy. It's always said that this is a high participation, low stress course. There is a 7 day exam window and you basically have unlimited time to complete those exams in that window. Its an amazing class, a wonderful professor, and great knowledge learned.

One of the best psyc teachers out there, she really cares about her students and their success! "Low stress, High participation!"

This professor made PSYC203 very manageable. Her instructions were always clear, she kept a positive attitude throughout the semester, and she genuinely made an effort to involve every student in the class. One of the most supportive and encouraging professors I've had.

Professor Thomas was very understanding, and I appreciated how she always reminded us that the class would be stress-free. She created a comfortable learning environment, and it really helped lower anxiety. For exams, she gave us an entire week to complete them, which made the process feel much more manageable and flexible.

PSYC 203, Professor Thomas Nichole. Her class is always lively, interesting, low stress and high participation. She is very patient with students and makes sure all students are following up and understanding.

She is an amazing professor. She is very flexible and considerate. This is a low-stress, high-participation class. It is fully online. Honestly great class.

She makes sure that every student is seen and heard. Very available during class and after class. Makes sure everyone is on the same page.

Really good professor, attendance not mandatory but does impact your grade. No need to purchase textbook. High participation.

I loved Professor Thomas! This is my second time taking a class with her (psych 216 + 227). I really enjoyed the discussion topics we had in class and you can definitely tell she is passionate and knowledgeable about what she teaches. It is important to participate in class with your camera on, but it is very low stress and actually enjoyable.

She was a great Professor! She was encouraging and really fostered community despite online class. Course content was easy to navigate and active participation for class (cameras on). All her lectures were very informative, relevant, and easy to follow. My grade was because of personal issues not her as a professor, she even made me a plan to pass.

Professor Thomas was an amazing teacher. She is caring and took the time to greet each student in every class. She always made sure her directions were clear and that we understood what we needed to do.

Professor Thomas is one of the sweetest and most caring professors I have had at MC. What makes her so unique as a professor is that she doesn't just view you as a student, but as a person who is just trying to get their education while dealing with life as well. She offers amazing time slots to complete assignments as well.

Professor Thomas is amazing! I've had her twice now, the first time I thought she was a hard grader but she is very kind and care about the well-being of her students all you have to do is follow the rubic as written! She is wonderful.

Great professor.

Dr. Thomas is an excellent instructor. She is good at teaching, and her knowledge is excellent. Her teaching style is engaging, and she is also understanding and gives good feedback. Participation is important for getting good grades, but don't worry, she makes you feel comfortable sharing in class. I definitely recommend taking her classes.

Mrs. Thomas did an incredible job and I definitly enjoyed the class. It was very informative and she made it enjoyable.

She makes it very clear that this class will be low stress and it's the truth. Pretty much if you come to class and participate you'll be good. We held PLENTY group discussions that made the class a lot more enjoyable. Our exams were open note and you can also use the textbook.

Professor Thomas is excellent. She is engaging and flexible. I took her online class. Appreciated that each category has multiple assignments with lowest scores excluded, encouraged reading the free textbook, writing self-relevant discussions, and using open-book MC exams.
