She's a very laid back teacher, she likes to talk to students and make suggestions on your work. She's very quiet. If you even rustle your papers you wont be able to hear her, so pay listen carefully. No late penalties. Very good Drawing 2 option.

she's super nice but unfortunately she's not a very good teacher.She doesn't really teach she kind of just puts still lives up and says "draw". If you have no drive to draw then she isn't the teacher for you.

Prof. Dixon is a great teacher. Once she learns everybodys individual drawing style, she gives constructive critiques to each student. She is always pointing out ways to improve your artwork and become a better artist.

I took her fall semester for Drawing 1 and i wanted to be sure that I got her for this class because she is a really good teacher. She judges everyone on their progess within their own style and allows time to finish drawings which is key.

This class was very interesting and my favorite this semester. She is helpful and pushes you to do better. She grades you on personal progress and appreciates everyones work. Attendance is mandatory, and if you miss a certain amount your grade goes down. But the class is so great, you'll want to go anyway!

I've had Nofa for two classes. I didn't like her a first but she has made me a better artist. Sometimes I get frustrated by her critiques and she can be critical but it is always constructive. Regardless of how you feel about her personally she genuinely wants to help you improve.

Extremely helpful and chill. She gave me more freedom than my drawing I teacher did. This made me take drawing much more seriously and thus I improved greatly.

She is one of the most pleasant professors I've had. She presents the material very clearly, and gives you your creative freedom to complete her assignments in your own way. I am a photography major who's drawing skills aren't amazing, and I felt completely at home in her classes. I never felt the desire to skip a class of hers. Awesome =]

How can you not like Nofa. She is sweet she is genuine, and even years after you take her classes, she is willing to help you out. She is sometimes sarcastic, but at the same time she does it in fun. If you dont like her. You must not have a good sense of humor.

Comment:
Dixon is unorganized and its never clear what assignments are due or what she expects. She picks favorites. Only 2-3 classes included actual teaching. I felt like I learned nothing except maybe from the Liquitex representative. I'm not a jaded student at all and not trying to bash her, but she is a very ineffective teacher. A waste of money for me.

I am not an artist. Because of my major I had to take this class. I heard nothing but good reviews on Nofa. She is helpful, funny and very good at her job and helps you see your creative self. Classes are long, and most of the work could be done at home. Take her classes she is awesome! She is not stuffy either.

Very loose teacher that gives a lot of freedom in the students' assignments. She's very helpful and sometimes she is really interested in your work. if you're into art, then she's perfect. you might get bored if you're not.

Although easy and kind, I didn't feel her passion for art. She is a stickler about having specific types of utensils and supplies. Acts very dry and sarcastically towards students. Not genuine. Can be discouraging at times and assighnments aren't creative. Art classes I took in high school were more educational and enriching than this one.

she's ok, but not my favorite prof. she's very critical, which can help you grow if it doesn't upset you 1st. class time dragged on & on. she is very knowledgeable, and she softened up towards the end. intimidating at times, but i wouldn't mind having her for future classes.

Miss Dixon rocks! She made this class so much fun. If you have to take 2D Design, take her. She really makes class fun! I would take more classes with her because she is such a sweet lady. She gives out the coolest projects in the world.

I liked her class, some of the projects were a little crazy but it was overall fun. You have to write 3 papers but I dont even think she graded them. Overall great teacher can be weird though.
