I love Pam! She's a great professor teaching a great subject. If you ever doubted the power of teachers, take her and she'll change your mind. She plans fun activities and class and she is the most understanding professor I have ever met. Every professor should take lessons from her on how to teach. There are tons of assignments, but none too hard to handle. She doesn't give grades per se, but rather she stick to checks and check plusses (+). Stay on top of your work and you're guaranteed a good grade and a fantastic time in her class!!

Summer 2024 - Took this class through zoom. The hours may feel like A LOT but it was not boring at all. the professor makes sure we are all engaging it’s not a boring lecture. Theres plenty of deep conversations an it makes you reflect on your life and appreciate everyone and everything.

Fall 2025 - I loved Education 123 with Professor Share!!! I was really looking forward to taking this class and I left completely satisfied with the experience. This class is unlike any other because Professor Share truly cares about his students and goes beyond just teaching educational concepts, he focuses on how to teach. One of the core ideas we learned is that many people may be knowledgeable in their subject area but do not necessarily know how to teach students effectively. This class really emphasized how fundamental it is to have teachers who are not only skilled but also caring and willing to go above and beyond for their students. I also appreciated having the opportunity to bring in guest speakers and discuss education topics that mattered to us. These experiences gave great insight into what it means to be a good educator and showed that teaching requires genuine care, dedication, and passion. Professor Share truly embodies these qualities. He cares deeply about his students, and his engaging teaching style leaves you feeling inspired and motivated to learn more. I would definitely take this class again because I truly value education. It is a class that takes you back to your own childhood learning while also giving you the tools you need for future careers in education and reminds us of what it means to be a great educator.

Winter 2021 - Professor Share is my favorite professor by far. He provides engaging lectures and brings in speakers each week. He is super supportive and understanding, he really wants what is best for his students. I learned so much during this class and enjoyed every second of it. Professor Share did one-on-one 10 minute entrance and exit interviews to meet us which I thought was really nice because professors never really do this kind of stuff. The readings were interesting and related to the topics we discussed each week. There was groupwork but it was honestly really easy because we assigned each other different sections. There are small projects throughout the quarter and a midterm and final essay. The final essay was basically a revision of our midterm essay but with a broader analysis. I highly recommend this class!
