Summer 2021 PSY 426 Advanced Human Memory
​
"She was very accommodating in a way that highlights my skills as a student and simply not just getting an assignment in on time. She was very attentive and gave regular updates and thoughtful feedback to every assignment.”
​
“Professor Chilton provided materials for all learning types: text, readings, publications, discussions, and videos. The tests were challenging, but fair to those who truly completed the work. I felt that my hard work was validated through her assessments."
​
“Professor Chilton is an exceptional instructor. She is well-organized, communicative, and designs the course for student success. Without her excellence, the course materials would be very difficult to process, given the emotionally triggering topics. I really enjoyed this class."
Summer 2022 PSY 342 Dementias and Chronic Conditions in Older Adults
​
“This class was one of my favorite psychology classes to date. The material was very applicable to real-life situations. Learning about individual stories was my favorite part because you could never know what someone is going through or has gone through by looking at them. It helped me become more compassionate."
​
“I liked the formatting of this class a lot and I think it has a lot of both useful and interesting material. A lot of the videos or articles we had to watch were so interesting to me that it did not even feel like homework.”
​
I liked the communication the instructor had. She was very interested in our learning and success. I really enjoyed that the professor was reminding us about our due dates and motivating us along the way, she was very kind, and understanding. The best professor I have ever had at the University of Arizona hands down."

Spring 2023 Osher Lifelong Learning Institute
​
"I appreciated the enthusiasm and high level of motivation that Trish displayed during our classes. She was very up to date on research and able to explain this well for class members. I really like the group discussion."
​
"The combination of Trish's knowledge, wisdom, and openness invited all of us to deep and meaningful discussions. I have attended many OLLI classes in the past years, and I can honestly say that this class was one of the best I have experienced. Trish is a true teacher. She knows and can share her knowledge and is incredibly adept at facilitating discussions."
​
"Trish is a great study leader. She is engaging and responsive to questions and great at facilitating class discussion. The subject matter is interesting and I don’t believe there are many comparable opportunities to learn the material from an expert in the field. It takes a gift to analyze and operationalize qualitative material and I have met few researchers who have this gift, and Trish is among them. It was a pleasure to participate in this class."
Summer 2023 PSY 342 Dementias and Chronic Conditions in Older Adults
​
"This has been one of the best courses I have ever taken, I have enjoyed being able to read a new concept and then see a personal story on it. From the thinking process of how I would react, what I would do to help, and what could be done better. I would not change anything about this class."
"This course was very beneficial and applicable to real life. I especially like how the course was very empathetic and highlighted the humanity of the elderly and the problems they face."
Fall 2023 PSY 342 Dementias and Chronic Conditions in Older Adults
"When it comes to the course content itself, I found it extremely valuable. Not only was it academically enriching but highly applicable to real life situations. The emphasis on examples and case studies within the course aided me in recognizing the relevance of what I was learning."
​
"This course was incredibly beneficial to my future path of nursing, and I feel that I will return to the foundation this course provided on dementia and chronic conditions associated with aging as I progress through more specialized coursework."
​
“The course’s emphasis on holistic well-being, equity, and inclusion was commendable. It highlighted the importance of addressing mental health, psychosocial factors, and lifestyle choices in older adults, as well as recognizing the unique challenges faced by historically underrepresented populations. The acquisition of practical skills in critical thinking, communication, and problem-solving was a standout feature of the course. These skills are transferable to various aspects of life and will undoubtedly benefit me both personally and professionally.”
