Professor Kim was so incredibly clear and I truly enjoyed attending her class, I feel as if I've learned so much, she was by far my favorite psychology teacher so far at Northeastern. Take her whenever you can if possible. She made cognition really fun!COGNITION 2010-10-11 08:22:34 +0000 UTC
Nancy Kim is an amazing educator. I've never met a professor who loved the material she teaches. Her exams are very fair and she honestly will do what she can to give you the better grade. She used clips from movies and shows to relate the material, so cool. For the Psych majors, this definitely has to be one of your Area B courses.PSYU466 2009-12-09 18:27:47 +0000 UTC
I had her for cognition and she is great. The most organized teacher I have ever had, really wonderful.PSYSECT 2007-08-28 19:40:38 +0000 UTC
Had her for seminar in cognition. Great teacher. Tried to make it fun (as fun as cognition can be). Interesting course, effective teacher.LIN660 2006-11-07 19:54:34 +0000 UTC
She posts all of her slides on blackboard which is really helpful. Clear about what will be on tests. The material is interesting and the lectures are alright. Not too hard if you study.PSY466 2006-09-20 12:38:06 +0000 UTC
awesome prof, interesting lectures. you don't need the book.PSYLIN466 2005-12-05 16:54:27 +0000 UTC
She makes the material really easy to understand and she makes the class pretty interesting. All of the slides she uses in class are posted the day before the lecture and she gives out really good study guides. All in all she's a great professer. Take her class!COGNITION 2006-04-09 21:14:55 +0000 UTC
THE best psychology teacher I've had so far. So organized, fair exams and she's always willing to help you in every way she can. She's so enthusiastic about the material and uses movie clips and interactive activities to get you into it too. Incredible teacher, take her Cognition class!PSYU466 2008-04-28 20:10:22 +0000 UTC
Great teacher, one of the best I've had at NU. Good, entertaining lectures. Fair tests. Uses PowerPoint and Blackboard well. Recommended.COGNITION 2006-04-06 15:59:54 +0000 UTC
lectures are so well put together and managed. the powerpoint presentations are full of pictures and video clips, so they're actually interesting. plus, she's on top of everything--posts things on blackboard when she says she will, gets tests back within 1-2 classes, makes up a study guide for each test. wonderful class and great professor!PSYU466 2006-03-30 13:33:22 +0000 UTC
Best teacher I've ever had, ever. The only reason why the class was easy was because of Prof. Kim. Her lectures are flawlessly put together and she always checks to make sure that everyone is getting what they want out of the class. Take this class if you can!COGNITION 2006-03-14 13:22:36 +0000 UTC
I learned a lot. She finds lots of interesting ways to make the subject relevant. Hands-down, the best prof I've ever had at NU. She is very accessible for help; uses Blackboard well. You will need the book for reference, as some exam questions are in it but not in the lecture- but you don't need to read it, she will tell you the pages to study.COGNITION 2005-12-21 22:46:45 +0000 UTC
