Dr. Wolf,
Overall this was my favorite course this semester and I’m not just saying that to you – I’ve told my family and close friends this as well.
It was never boring from nutrition news to case studies, bitables, Kahoots, and your powerpoints stocked with interesting information and resources, and comic strips.
You were respectful of our time even when we transitioned to online Zoom calls and as a slight type A personality, I really appreciate your organization and lesson plans, and energy during the course.
I love how you always make everyone in our class participate in discussions and case presentations.
It has also been extremely helpful that you focus our discussions around how we would communicate what we learn in your class to our patients. My favorite part was the clinical application every week. I have taken away many clinical gems. Before COVID-19 I communicated nutritional advice to my patients much more effectively thanks to your tips and saw much better patient compliance with my recommendations the more I learned in your course. For example, asking patients “are you willing to add something to your diet?” and saying “food plan” instead of “diet” and compromising with the patients based on their lifestyles so they will actually implement recommendations.
Our class is full of interesting personalities and dynamics and I admire that you were able to get everyone involved in discussions and interactions during this course. It shows through your energetic teaching style that you are passionate about nutrition and I learned a lot through this semester in your class.
Thank you very much for your time and energy.
