Her patience and encouragement—not just correcting mistakes but guiding students to think critically—turned a difficult moment into a turning point in learning and confidence. Another student highlighted her genuine care when she noticed signs of struggle with tardiness and disorganization, especially related to ADHD. Professor Taylor approached her with kindness and support, creating a safe space for honesty and offering assistance without judgment. Her ability to connect personally and professionally makes students feel valued, understood, and inspired to grow both academically and personally. Professor Taylor exemplifies the caring, understanding, and inspiring qualities celebrated by the DAISY Award.
