Student feedback
"Professor Nacht consistently explained complex topics with clarity and care. Her use of novel, real–world examples helped me understand the concepts more deeply, and I really appreciated how she encouraged us to think critically rather than just memorize content. The discussions with classmates also made the learning experience engaging and interactive. Her teaching style made challenging material feel approachable and meaningful."
"As an international student, I often feel nervous about speaking up in class, especially when topics are sensitive or when I’m unsure about my English. But in Carrie’s class, I genuinely felt welcomed and supported. She explained concepts clearly and always gave us space to share our thoughts, which made me feel comfortable participating. Her classroom felt like a safe place where students from different backgrounds, including myself, were truly included."
"This professor has a lot of experience with various types of research and can give good examples that aid in our learning. They are very willing to answer any questions as well."
"Professor Nacht was really good at explaining the material and making sure we understood everything. She was always there to talk to and support us academically and it was really great having her as a professor this semester."
"Professor Nacht created a great inclusive environment and promoted learning of different marginalized communities in research.
"Professor Nacht is great at breaking down the material in an easier to understand, straightforward way. For the first half of the course especially, Professor Nacht was super prepared and great and explaining the material, and giving us good slides and activities for practice. She prepared us very well for quizzes and made the class fun! She is a good teacher and it feels natural for her to be in front of the class."
"I appreciated that Professor Nacht was personable with students, honest about when she did not know something herself, and flexible with changing deadlines. She also was overall an engaging and knowledgeable lecturer. I would take a course with her again!"
"Carrie was a great TA who was empathetic to students’ concerns and seemed to genuinely care about student success in the class. I appreciate that she would time herself in class to ensure that every group received an equal amount of attention and individual help when needed. The way she provided feedback was not too harsh and very clear to understand. I learned much more class material in her Lab section compared to Lecture since Carrie presented information in a much easier way to understand and I never felt overloaded with information."
