Investing Time and Attention
“I really appreciate the time and attention you gave to our Research Methods course! I know that there is no way I could have been prepared for the research experiences without the knowledge acquired [from] that class."
Teaching from Real World Experiences
"Abrams was probably one of the nicest and most accommodating profs I've had at UMBC. She... pulled examples from her own research exp and .. I learned things about psych research I otherwise wouldn't have known by just learning content from the textbook."
Infectious Personality
"Professor Abrams is amazing. It was a group version of 311 she still lectured each unit for you to properly understand the course material. Her personality is infectious and makes you want to smile. Extremely sweet, caring, and wants everyone to do well."
