"When you learn, teach, when you get, give." - Maya Angelou
I have always loved to learn, so it is no surprise to me that I find teaching so fulfilling. Seeing students have that "lightbulb" moment when something clicks is unmatched. Every time I teach, I look for ways to improve and am passionate about finding new ways to engage students through effective, challenging instruction.
​
To the right you will find a list of the classes I have taught as well as guest lectures I have had the opportunity to share with my colleagues' students upon request. Below are the average quantitative evaluation scores from university-led, anonymous student evaluations and a handful of open-ended comments from my students about my instruction that were also reported anonymously in those evaluations.

"Professor Brammer is a great teacher and really cares to get the students involved in discussions. You can tell that she always has our best interest in mind and I know when a teacher is great when I don’t have to study for weeks on end to get a good grade on the test. She makes learning fun and always has a really positive attitude."
