Teaching and Mentoring

Testimony

When I teach, I awaken.
When I teach, I represent.

When I teach, I remember
myself to myself.

I won’t stop this
even out of the classroom,
out of the school,
out of the academy.

My words demand that you remember me
remembering us.

Student Testimonials

“It was inspiring to see a Black woman who advocates unapologetically for Black people, Black women, and Black girls with her unique style and grace in academia. Seeing Dr. Dill do it gave me the license to do it, as well.”

— Student in 2021

“Dr. Dill went above and beyond to make herself available to us for questions, advice, feedback, ideas, etc. She emphasized selfcare. She approached the class from a holistic, real world perspective that addressed the real concerns of a class about to graduate and enter the job force.”

– Student in 2020

“All the amazing lessons you taught me, especially qualitative methods, I am putting to use everyday in helping with research efforts to better understand COVID-19. I just wanted to say thank you so much for pushing me to learn this incredibly valuable skill set.”

– Student in 2020

“As a Black woman, I enjoyed seeing a representation of me in the professor…that actually might have been the best part of class!”

– Student in 2018

“I left your class every day feeling like I had been let in on something important…And like my tendencies to be deeply passionate and tirelessly contemplative can fit in the world of research.”

– Student in 2017

“You help me think about my future and how I see myself as an agent of change.”

– Student in 2017

“Every so often you come across people who wholeheartedly believe in you more than you believe in yourself, and I’m so grateful to have you in my corner, always cheering me onward and reminding me to pursue my dreams even when I’m filled with doubt. Thank you so much!”

– Student in 2015

“It’s rare that I’ve experienced a professor so committed and passionate about her field and students.”

—Student in 2013
