"Kelley does an excellent job at engaging with her students in a natural, relatable, and understanding way. This ensures that all students feel welcome in the class, and that helps my learning because I feel comfortable in the class! I don't love math, and I often find the subject boring, but Kelley finds a way to make the dry content engaging and fun."
"Kelley is such an amazing instructor. Coming into this class I was scared because math is not my strength. She helped me learn how statistics isn’t scary and how it connects to psychology and the real world. Her lectures are amazing and she provides thorough instructions and examples to help me succeed for assignments and quizzes. She also showed us a PowerPoint on mental health resources on campus which isn’t discussed enough among college students, I really loved that."
"Professor Kelley Wick is one of the best professors I have had. She is not only a great teacher, but she is also very supportive and understanding. She teaches in a way that 'clicks' with students, but she's also willing to explain things again and again, in new ways, so that the student actually understands what they have learned when they walk out. She offers so many resources, and I am extremely grateful to have had her as a professor."
"Kelley has and continues to be a huge support for her students. She is always willing to help them learn and gain an understanding with the material. I have never once felt intimidated to ask her questions or answer questions in class. She is an amazing professor and will continue to be one after she leaves UNL."
