Reviews of professor Nicole Ivy

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
I took American Cultural History with Ivy and she is the easiest professor I have ever taken. She canceled a third of the lectures with no notice which makes she doubt whether she cares about teaching at all. The exams are extremely straightforward and simple. Easy A, but Ivy makes what should be an interesting class extremely boring.

Professor Ivy was such a sweetheart, but lectures were not the best, and she was a little unorganized. It took over a month for our midterms to be graded. Easy class and sweetest professor though.

easily the WORST course I've taken at GW. sadly this class was a requirement for amst majors. if ur not an amst major, avoid 2010 at all costs. Dr. Ivy is wildly unorganized and late to every lecture. Also there's a 1hr 15 min discussion section. TAs r lenient on papers, so Easy A, but if ur lookin for an engaging course, don't waste ur time here

Avoid prof Ivy if you can. I took HIST 2010 for the communication credit. It was not hard but the class is confusing and Ivy is all over the place. The class was graded on five easy quizzes, participation in discussion, the midterm and the final, which took over a month to be graded. Ivy also does not respond to emails. Take something else.

I took this class during her first year at GW, so it was pretty unorganized and lacking in content. Some of the readings were entertaining but they were not incorporated into the course whatsoever. With that being said, this is an easy A class if you need the credit. Main assignments are occasional papers and a presentation in recitation.

Professor Ivy's American Contagions class was extremely intriguing and the discussion-based classes helped contextualize our current moment within the COVID-19 pandemic. She is very flexible and willing to work with you if you need it. She isn't the most organized professor, but it didn't affect my learning/engagement with the course material.

Fun class with a nice prof. She tries to spark good conversations and actually listens. Took us on a museum trip and had others planned (cancelled due to covid19). The midterm was super easy, she even gave us what was going to be on it to study. Sometimes late to class though. Responsive to emails and approachable.

When I read the other reviews saying she was disorganized, I honestly didn't think it would be as bad as it was. At the time of writing this review, I have not received any grades for anything. She would always start the class late and would say she would post things at a certain time but usually wouldn't unless you reminded her at least twice.

LOVED THIS CLASS, best professor I've had as of yet. TA seemed a bit more strict, but class material was fun and interesting.
