Mrs. Nabors is awesome! She always prints out the powerpoint slides for you and sometimes she'll give a worksheet but you go over it together in class and always volunteer to work them, you get extra credit! The tests are okay, but you have to study, she curves them. She will take attendance every couple of weeks for bonus points on the final.

Ms. Nabors is an alright professor. She gives you extra credit but you better be ready to sit up front and be her favorite in order to get called on. She is willing to help and explain and trys her best to make tests to your advantage but it is still difficult and you really need to pay attention & read the book!Online homework-easy!

Professor Nabors is a very good teacher. She expects you to take what she teaches you seriously, but if you don't understand, all you have to do is go ask. Her tests were reasonably difficult, but that is because she isn't there to just push people through, she is there to teach them how to think. If you want to make a good grade in class, you can!

Macro Econ: She is pretty easy. She reads off powerpoint slides the entire time. No homework. Extra credit on every test. The book is only needed if you want to follow along wit the powerpoint slides. They are exactly the same. 30 minutes studying before each test = easy A.

Dr. Nabors is difficult but is also an amazing instructor. Her tests are challenging but if you show up to class and work hard, you will be fine. I struggled with "economical-thinking" but learned to understand it more as the class progressed. She is a great speaker and is always very professional and prepared. She knows her stuff.

I have taken her for ECON2020 and she was the complete opposite of the teacher I had for 2010. Even with COVID going on she made attendance a big part of our grade and did not count online attendance as you being in class. This was difficult for those of us who were concerned about COVID and people who assumed attendance wasnt mandatory.

I would advise against taking the online class. The book is great but the exams are from her not from the textbook. Expect to be tested on a quarter of what you actually spend time learning. The homework assignments were great practice for comprehending what the textbook wanted you to know but they had very little to do with the actual exams.

Yolanda Nabors is a nice professor; however, her classes are difficult to study for. She assigns lots of homework and lectures to print out. Her online lectures do not serve justice in class. If you do the homework assignments, you will pass her class with flying colors.

Dr. Yolunda Nabors has been an excellent professor this semester. She had detailed lectures, was engaging during class, and was usually easy to follow. Her quizzes and tests are well written and feel fair. She answered questions in detail and well, and always made herself available to help with homework questions.

WAY too hard for an intro/gen ed course. The midterm (30% of your grade) is nothing like the homeworks or quizzes. The lectures are based strictly from the textbook and sound like she's reading directly from it. But the exams seem to be pulled out of thin air. I'm a senior with a great GPA and had to drop cause I was failing. DO NOT TAKE.

Nabors really knows her stuff. She's engaging, funny, and super knowledgeable. A lot of people claim she's a hard teacher, but she has to cover a lot of material. I recommend going to all the pre-exam question sessions and really engaging in the lecture and Smartbooks. Total cost of the class was like $38 for the online HW modules.

Ms. Nabors was so kind even though her class was pretty difficult. I highly suggest taking her online class though. We had about 30ish slides a week with homework and tests due every Saturday. Again, it is not an easy class, but it is possible to make an A.

DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR. If you have the option, run away. For more reasons than I can sum up in 350 characters. SHE DOES NOT WANT YOU TO SUCCEED. This is a Gen Ed course, nobody needs this for their major. take it online. take it at vol state. Just DO NOT TAKE HER. Great GPA student here, I more than pass all my classes. SHE WAS ATROCIOUS.

Nabors is a very intelligent professor-she has lots of insight towards economics but her class is very hard and easy to lose track of. Each assignment in this class counts because of the very hard tests so DO THE HOMEWORK. This class takes time and I honestly didn't retain much besides the unfairness of the insulin market. Take online elsewhere.
