Professor Pearce was hands down the best professor I have had in CSUF nursing program thus far. My first semester in the ABSN program was challenging and full of many ups and a whole lot of downs, to say the least, and I truly could not have done it without her support. She is the most available professor that I have ever had when it comes to getting support and asking questions. She has answered every single email that I have ever sent her and just genuinely wants to help out her students or prior students. I had her for the writing course that we had to take our first semester and not only did she help me become a more confident writer but she helped me become a better person and a better nursing student. She was always available for a phone call or Zoom meeting and was very flexible with my busy schedule rather than tailoring our meeting to just her schedule. She is such a kind-hearted and genuine person and truly is teaching for the right reasons. A teacher should want to go above and beyond to help their students be not only successful in her class but in general as a student and future nurse. Pearce did all of these things and she did it with respect, dignity, and kindness. She came to class every day ready to teach us and was very enthusiastic. I never once felt like I was bothering her when asking a question in class or via email because she totally us never to feel that way. She truly goes above and beyond for her students. I am so lucky to have had the chance to work with her again this semester. Because I did not pass the health assessment just barley I had to choose a faculty mentor for the spring semester and without a doubt I chose her.
