Comment:

She's really a great teacher... if you need help, she will rearrange her schedule and clear out time for you to get help. Really easy class unless you're sleeping through it or not getting help when you need it. She's really funny and tries to make class interesting. Sometimes she's confusing at first, but keep paying attention and its very clear.

Dr. Davis is a really easy grader. She can sometimes be confusing in class, so it is necessary to either go see her for help or go to the CLP sessions. You also get extra credit for going to CLP.

Hilarious teacher, genuinely cares about her students but tends to be very scattered and is difficult to learn from

Comment:

Easy. I barely studied for my exams and got A's on all but one. She puts a major curve on all her exams, and she always throws on a TON of bonus points. She makes the material seem simple. There's no homework, and she probably would not know if you would skip a week's worth of classes. VERY entertaining and funny.

Comment:

She gives easy tests with extra points, but she doesn't really teach the material. She can be very scattered with what you are learning and why. Be prepared to teach yourself and do a lot of outside work to be able to do well.

Comment:

She isn't too hard, but you definitely need to stay on top of things to do well. Her pop quiqzes every week were a pain, but at least she had extra credit on her tests. Just make sure to buy the chem study guide book and teach yourself, because she gets confusing at times.

Comment:

Is clear when teaching, but doesn't always explain why we're learning what we're learning. Not good at organization. She's a little crazy, but that makes the class interesting, otherwise I'd be asleep all the time. Tests are tough - be prepared to study (still better than bio, though)

Class was okay. Just make sure you read your notes before class because she gives a pop quiz every week.

Comment:

Labs were a little confusing at first...nobody in the room seemed to know what was going on, but in the end everybody learned what they needed to and we all did ok. I got a great grade in the class and i did not put hardly any time into it...a super + for a lab. She is fun and helpful, you just have to try. I recommend her!!

Comment:

What a ridiculous woman. I would get lab reports back with -10 on them. I would then page through the report and NO OTHER MARKS were written. I would then go tell her this and she would beat around the bush with me. So unorganized in lab and I always felt like I was bothering her asking her questions. I got a decent grade, but I dont know how...

She's crazy and fun. I fell asleep in class a lot, but only because lack of sleep. You don't need to pay attention to do well. Just buy the study guide book that goes along with the text book and if you read the summaries and do some of the problems they offer you will do well in the class.

She is truely one of the best. She spells out everything in class and if you study your notes you'll ace the test. She really cares about her students and if you have a problem dont worry about approaching her she's great!

Dr. Davis is a teacher that is not just working for the money. I do not know any teacher that would re-write their own notes, just so the class would understand the lecture. Shes awesome.. i highly recommend her.

Dr. Davis is great. It's like having your grandmother shuffling around in lab, except that she's helpful. She's pretty friendly outside of class too, and in lab, she makes the labs pretty easy to do. She even admitted taking shortcuts here and there to

Nice lady kind of wacky. She is not always easy to understand. She gives a quiz on the experiment before you start every lab, also she is not a very easy grader

Amazing. Teaches in a down to earth type of way that I believe is very understandable. Don't understand something-go see her!She will help you until you get it. She is such a nice person too.It is a pleasure having her for class. Also, on tests, she only grades 100/115 pts. Anything over is bonus.
