“I feel like Ms. Brenna Helm is very good at getting us engaged. She is a very good professor to relate to as well. During lecture, she also gives us examples that we can relate to. I also enjoy the lectures because everyone gets engaged and we all have a good conversation. She is very understanding and does everything she can to help us out. I would love to have this professor again! I also like the min. [minute] papers!”

““[I enjoyed] how enthusiastic she is about the topic of the day. It helps me learn better and makes the class more enjoyable to attend. I also prefer her method of teaching over the more standard read textbook take quiz method. her way of reading and having class discussions on the topic helps me get more information from the material.””
“She teaches very well, she is very knowledgable and able to tie the course materials back into our everyday lives, which makes the material easier to learn and better to engage with. She is one of the best professors I have had at OU [Ohio University]!”
