Student Feedback
Susan, I want to share something with you. Since I was your student at Southwestern College, I have gone on to teach at the graduate and undergraduate levels for eleven years. I have become a lead professor, earned tenure, been inducted into my school's Academy of Teaching Excellence (a student-driven nomination process), and will be presenting at a national conference this summer in St. Louis. I tell you all of this not to blow my own horn, but to let you know each of these accomplishments has your fingerprints all over them. When I decided to pursue a career as a professor, I fashioned myself after the best professor I had in the past...you. Now, I am in the position to mentor those who want to get into the field, as well as being connected locally with various groups (SHRM, Chamber, etc.) serving as a conduit for my students to connect them with job opportunities. I am where I am because I followed your recipe of care for students, specific, frequent, and honest feedback, and flexibility when life throws a curveball to a learner. Not sure if you knew that, so I wanted to let you know. - Linkedin Email
Dr Sasiadek was the first professor I had when I started my MBA program. Prior to beginning the program, I had years of fear and anxiety of whether or not I would even be qualified to get into a Masters program let alone complete one. The first class was going to make or break me. Her leadership, guidance, outreach, encouragement and patience with her students was felt every single time an assignment or paper was due. I can speak for many of us who were led by her, she truly gave us the power to recognize what we were capable of in the most crucial point of the program. I am forever grateful for her. She will always be one of the very few memorable leaders in my life for what she represented to me. I hope she crosses many many more lives and changes them as she already has.
Dr. Sasiadek,
I want to take a moment to sincerely thank you for the incredible experience over the past eight weeks. Your expertise, guidance, and teaching have had a profound impact on my understanding of Servant Leadership and management. I have gained so much, not just from the course content, but also from observing your leadership style and your thoughtful approach to teaching.
Thank you again for all your efforts. I look forward to applying these lessons in my professional and personal growth.
OUTSTANDING INSTRUCTOR! Interactive with students making learning even better! Dr. Sasiadek goes above and beyond the call of duty to help her students learn. Provides students with examples and explains APA if necessary. Love, love, love this professor! She is far above her peers.
Dr. Sasiadek, well, truth be told, when you find a Professor who teaches in a way that you can strongly relate too, you learn the most. I was blown away by our last class and was ecstatic to learn you were teaching my next one. Some Professors try to be so tough or so over critical that you simply give up and just do what you have to just to get by. But sometimes you find Professors who seem to genuinely care about their students and how they perform without overwhelming them with work and comments. Those Professors teach you the most knowledge and help you to WANT to learn and move forward. Thank you for that!

“This instructor has been my favorite in this program thus far. She not only gives quality feedback on assignments, she also takes the time to encourage each and every student through each week during discussions. Highly recommend this instructor.” Ashford University EOCS, MGT601
“I think Dr. Sasiadek is a fantastic instructor. I was very nervous coming into this course due to not having any background in marketing and from her initial communications she seemed to have very high expectations. While this has been true, she has been very motivating and provided feedback that has really helped me learn. I wish I could have her for all my classes! Best professor I have had with Ashford so far.” Ashford University, EOCS, BUS620
“Hi Dr. Sasiadek, I just had to take the time to send you a personal email to tell you how much I enjoyed your class and how much of a great instructor you are!!! I wish the class did not have to end. I really hope I get the opportunity to work with you again. In fact, I wish you could be my instructor for all my remaining courses. Thank you so much for all the great feedback and the motivation to continue to work hard. I would not have been able to ace this class without your superb guidance. Thank you again for your great support and best wishes until we meet again!!” Ashford University Email

Dr. Sasiadek is an outstanding Professor, coach and mentor. I have had the pleasure of not only attending Dr. Sasiadek’s classes as a student for the past one and a half years, but also acting as her mentee. I have found Dr. Sasiadek to be one of the best Professors I have ever encountered and feel honored to have had her as a professor while obtaining my master’s degree from Southwestern College. She is always punctual and dependable in supplying a response to every question, as well as flexible in the ever-changing environment of pursing an education. Her leadership knowledge makes her an invaluable Professor.
