UOPX Student Comments

Hello Jim
Jim, you are by far the top dog, big cheese, numero uno in my book as far as instructor's/facilitator's go :-) I appreciate your weekly feedback and comments as well as being hands-on and above all...fair!
I look forward to utilizing business research knowledge in my professional career, but will also think about so many things differently in my personal life as well.

Jim,

I applaud your approach to quality rather than quantity and feel it is much more productive. I am near the end of this program and if I should be selected to teach online with the UOP, I will certainly follow your lead in how you run the class. I appreciate it very much and feel it added a great deal to the quality of the class overall.

Thanks again.--

Jim, thanks for your (always) positive feedback. Even when I do something that's not right, you come up with a positive spin on it. I believe that your class has been the most organized of the classes I've taken at UOP Online.
Again, thanks for your help during this class. Maybe our paths will cross again some other time.

Jim,
Just a quick note to say "thanks" for the kind words you gave in all of my weekly grade reports. My work was a reflection of your excellent organization and structure of the class along with my classmates contributions. You truly made this class the best learning experience I've had!
Perhaps our paths will cross again in the future. If not, best of luck and again THANKS!.

Thanks for what was probably the best learning experience I have had since I started with UOP! Although the server problems made life a bit difficult - your patience, and determination for us to succeed was much appreciated!
Thanks again everyone for a great class!

Jim,
I really must say at the beginning of this class I was overwhelmed and frightened. Mostly because there was not a lot of structure in my other classes. I think a lot of the UOP instructors could learn a lot from you. Your class structure is excellent and it makes for great discussions. I want to thank you for an excellent six weeks, by far the most enjoyable six weeks at the UOP.
Regards,
Greg

Jim,
You throw a great party! It has been a pleasure being in your class. I learned a ton. You are probably the most effectively organized instructor I have ever had at UOPhoenix or anywhere else. Thank you for making our learning experience interesting and fun.
With fond aloha,
Gerald

Jim,
Your modification of logistics during this class has definitely increased the comfort level. Your class was excellent. Objectives and expectations were presented clearly. Your organizational skills and professionalism certainly exceeded my expectations (and yes, based on this class, I would highly recommend UOP to other interested students---minus the nagging server issues). Sorry to be so "long-winded," but wanted to be sure you know how much I appreciate having had the opportunity to be in your class. Thanks, Jim!!

Ha ha ha ha, you can say that again!!! Having Jim as an instructor is almost like culture shock (in a good way).

Jim,
I just wanted to take the time to thank you for all the effort you put into this course. This was by far the best organized course I've taken at University of Phoenix Online, and the organization definitely helped me focus on the material of the course and enhanced the overall experience.
Thanks!
John

I was always told to give credit where credit is due and you definitely deserve some kudos. I am really hoping that the remainder of my classes have instructors as attentive and supportive as you were with us. Thanks again.

Dear Jim,
It has been a pleasure having you as my second to last instructor at UOP. I only have GEN480 and I will be finished. I want to compliment you on your visual writing skills. Your personality definitely made it past the barriers of a computer screen. That is something my other online instructors have not mastered. I very much enjoyed your lectures as well as your class commentary.
Take care Jim, and thanks again for a great five weeks!
Warm Regards,
Heidi

Even with all the effort put forth, looking back, this class was indeed fun!! I am certain it had a lot to do with the way you structured the class, Jim. You will serve as an example to me. Looking into teaching online.

I have to say that I really enjoyed this online class, seeing "quality" postings vs. "quantity" postings was really a pleasure! There were some insightful comments all along the way. Thanks for the new approach, Jim. I thought it made the atmosphere rather "charged." Yes, dynamic, for sure.

It has been a pleasure Jim, you are a credit to UOP and a very decent man.
Thanks,

Jim thanks for being such a great facilitator for this class. UOP needs more instructors like you! Instructors who care, are involved, and provide feedback. Gladys

As I stated in the survey, the class met or exceeded all of my expectations. Great learning experience. Class was very well organized. Class discipline was better than I have had in any class. Upfront work by the Facilitator was appreciated and well received (examples and clear instructions). Threading worked great. Material was very well presented. Great group of folks to learn with.

Jim is the best instructor that I have had with UOP to date. Providing us with the flexibility with the assignments has made a world of difference for me and his valuable feedback was been exceptional. The discussions are most informative and my learning team is great to work with as we all have learned each others strengths very quickly.

There is no doubt that your ability to react and help your students get through was most important for you and should be for UOP. You really looked at your circumstance and made a great decision for everyone involved. Sorry, I should not be providing my opinion and should not act as if I have the expertise to tell you that you did something right but it felt right from a student perspective and I would love to follow your quick (my opinion correct reaction) to a situation that really hurt and impacted all of us.
Life is dear!! Love and care for one another. We are only here for a brief moment in history but can make a lifetime of memories to others based on our acts. Make your decisions and actions count!!!!!--

Jim, you continue to amaze me with you continued support to see us all success with this class. Many thanks for you flexibility and understanding during these trying times. The discussions are most interesting!!!
******************
Jim, you are such a special instructor. Yes, we are dealing with issues from all sides but I think we just hope to learn and get our work done to prove that we have learned.
No doubt that this sounds like an easy statement but I would not say it has been easy in the last 10 days and the last few with the virus even made me more stressed. I think we all want to get through school and just take the time needed to understand life!!
I, too, want to thank you for your understanding. I probably would have had to drop the class otherwise. With a little luck, I'll be back on track by the end of this week. I wish I could say the same for America. -- Rob
************************
You truly are an inspiration and model for kindness and caring. Thank you so much for being there and being the glue for keeping many of us going. FT

Thanks Jim, this has to be the most comprehensive and insightful grade summaries I have ever received. Thanks for the time you put into evaluating each item, I appreciate it. I can already tell that this is going to be a beneficial class. -- P.L.
*****************
I'm very happy Jim! You were an inspiring and motivating instructor, thanks for making the class so interesting and engaging.
Success to you!!!
Linda
******************
Although I disagree with you on some of the things you do, I do appreciate your integrity and professionalism. This class was interesting, and despite my emails I do believe that you do care, and are trying to do the best for the class. Thank you for helping me through this class! Rog
******************
I'm positive the entire class will agree with me when I say you have done an outstanding job of facilitating this class. It has been a very educational experience.
Thanks for all your guidance, leadership and real world examples.
