She literally rushes through the slides, you'll be sitting in your seat wondering what she's even talking about. Everything is "easy" to her. I literally have NO idea what I've "learned".

Comment:

Super approachable and cares about her students, going above and beyond to make sure there are a lot of opportunities for her students to get the help they need. She ran a Friday night homework help session outside of regular lectures to offer extra help. Exams are tough but fair, with questions similar to the type she goes through in lecture.

Excellent teacher. She uses waaaay too many slides, but she is great at explaining, answering questions, and is on the ball. Homework was sensible and helpful, she gave relevant examples, and her exams were fair. Loved taking her class and got a great mark too.

The chemistry department should clone Dr. Dawe and have her teach everything. Insanely organized, very thorough, very reasonable tests and exam.

I've never had a prof whose explanations were so concise and thorough. I didn't even buy the text book for the course, her notes alone are good enough. Highly recommended.

AMAZING prof, her notes are great, and if you go to class you rarely have to study for the tests, which are made very fairly. Highly reccomended.

FANTASTIC prof. Couldn't ask for a better teacher. Clear, friendly, approachable, and gorgeous to boot! This woman is definitely the best choice for a first year chem student by FAR.

Comment:

One of the worst profs I have come across. She is unorganized, takes forever to mark things and is hardly in her office or even on campus. She is an easy marker and reads everythign twice so she raises grades but our midterms that were written Oct 13 were not returned until November 29/Dec 1. She loves the subject but it is a boring class.

Comment:

Not the greatest prof. out there. Never got through all the material she wanted to in the semester but still expects us to know it all for the exam. Text book wasn't that great and she really needs to stay on topic. Aside from being a bad prof she at least showed concern for her students and was good with extensions on the due dates of papers.

Such a sweet lady! She really knows what she's talking about, and is always excited about the material in class. Great prof for answering questions in class. The only negative thing I found was she's a little scatter-brained at times and she takes a while to get things back... overall, she's excellent though!

Comment:

A very sweet woman, who is very approachable and understanding. She cares about her students, their progress and outcome,& most of all wants to help. Lectures are a bit boring, as u just sit, listen & take notes. Half the term consists of students presentations,no lectures. It's unique, & a great chance to ask all the questions u want.

Comment:

The worst prof I have run into yet at M.U.N for class organization and structure. All she does is talk and you take notes. She has no structure to her lectures and you can't even go by the book because she doesnt tell you anything to read just leaves you hanging in the wind. BEWARE!!

She is a bit slow and doesn't always return things in a timely fashion. While she is boring and uses presentations to teach classes, she is approachable. try to be a favorite or you won't get anywhere.

Comment:

Went above and beyond in preparing students for their oral exams. Unlike many profs. she actually made an effort to read the books discussed in class, and even gave helpful notes on some. Offered a great review seminar at the end, and stayed even though it went 1.5 hours over. Well, I'm impressed.

This woman somehow manages to turn some of the most interesting material into the worst nightmare you have ever had. The history department should have someone younger and vibrant teaching those Middle East history classes.

Comment:

Shes a flexable prof but I wish she would answer student questions without going off on tangets, however she does try to get you to understand the infomation and concepts as a whole rather then just snips of info. I may not recommed her to other students, but i am going to take her other class.
