Comment:

Professor Pavone is by far the kindest, most caring professor I have had so far. She loves to listen to what the class has to say and will mold her discussions on what we want to talk about. She makes CIT EXTREMELY enjoyable and stress free. She gives minimal homework and really takes her time out to respond to her students. HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!!!

Comment:

By far the best professor I've EVER taken. I want to be her friend after the semester ends because she is amazing. She is open to discussion, lets us use notes on exams, brings her dog in during exam days, bought us donuts once, and is hilarious when she tells stories that relate to the topics were discussing. Love her as a person and professor.

Comment:

Dr. Pavone is an absolute sweetheart. Her PSCC103 class is not hard at all and is only 3 papers for the semester, thats it. I took her as a blended course so it was only once a week for an hour. Easiest class on my schedule by far. She talks about her past career as an Alcohol counselor and focuses a lot of the curriculum and themes around that

Great professor. Very nice and funny. She is definitely interested on each person's input. Tests aren't too hard but you have to study. She will curve the lowest grade up to a passing grade and then add those amount of points to everyone elses tests. Loved going to her class!

Great teacher...during class she lets you use your computer, teaches with slideshows and tells a lot of her own stores. If you are more intrested in getting a great grade then actually hardcore learning psych take this class. She offers tons of extra credit, curbs tests about 10 points and is giving us a take home final. take her for sure

Community Health class often felt like Community Service, with students being used as a physical labor force at St. Charles. School experience was worthwhile, but disorganized with no planned format.

She doesn't really lecture much. She drifts off to stories of her own. All the studying/learning is done on your own outside of class.
