Comment:

Dr. Hizer made chem1212 really easy for me. Call me crazy, but I think this class was way too easy. It may be hard to retain the information. He does move through lecture very slowly, but for those who will not take another chemistry class, he's a good choice. If you are a chemistry major, I would recommend someone else.

Comment:

Class is not mandatory but he doesn't mess with power-points. He is a simple kind of guy. All lectures are on the dry erase board and there isn't away to read the lectures online. His exams are not that difficult. Some questions are identical to the lecture examples. He is really fun and the chemistry professor at Armstrong/Georgia Southern.

LOVED DR. HIZER. was very worried coming into chemistry, but he is very effective. Test are very strait forward, put the effort in and you will do fine. Go to office hours and form a relationship with him and you will do even better. He made me fall in love with Chemistry and I looked forward to going to class. Corny chemistry jokes!!!

Dr. Hizer is the best lab professor i have ever met. He is very chill and he tries to get work done to get out early from lab. If i knew about him for chem 1 lecture and lab, i would have taken him for all chems. He is amazing

Dr. Hizer is your best choice esp If you dislike MATH and a BIO major, 60% 4 tests multiple choice& short answer, 25% HW online and 15% final. I honestly didn't give my all but still succeed within his class, EASY A if you study !! Hopefully I can take him for CHEM II !!! he also CURVES on the low

Hizer is fantastic! The material can become confusing, but he is happy to explain it slower or in a different way for you to understand. Patient and willing to help. Responds to email and when you call him on his office phone (lol). If you go to him early he will grade your exam right in front of you! He's awesome. Take Hizer!

3 Tests, Online HW, 1 Final. He does lecture all on the board. His tests (MC & short answers) are based on his lectures (no book needed). He gives partial credit, even if you get it wrong, he'll take like 1point off. Definitely answer all questions on test. He welcomes all questions in & out of class. Really cares about his students passing.

Had him for the lecture and lab. He's awesome and knows what he's talking about. Come to class, take notes, study, ask questions if you have any and you'll get an easy A. He does not mind being overwhelmed with questions and is very patient. He wants you to understand the material. One of Armstrong's best! Made me fall in love with chemistry!

Stay on top of your online quizzes and homework. Hizer's not great with computers so he won't remind you! A lot of students waited to finish a HUGE homework assignment until the end of the semester. Many didn't finish it. This can make or break your grade.

Dr. Hizer is awesome. Chemistry is tough but he presents the information in a way that helps you understand. He doesn't rush, and is happy to answer questions if you don't get something. His tests are tough, but if you go to class and study your notes you will do well. I would definitely recommend taking his class!

I only had Dr Hizer for lab. In his lab participation matters. dont miss too many. There have been very few quizzes. The group you are with on day 1 is your group forever, choose wisely! expects you to at least pretend to care. very funny. I would take him again.

Professor Hizer is such a nice professor and is always there to help you if you need it. He grades his test very fairly Ex. if you get a problem wrong but do it the right way wrongly he will only mark you off a little. His tests are JUST like his notes so you don't need to read the book at all really. GREAT TEACHER!!!!

I don't know what this last person is talking about. Dr. Hizer is an AMAZING chemistry professor! If it weren't for him, I would still hate chemistry. He is able to "translate" the foreign world of chemistry to a lay person. He is kind to students who have questions; never makes them feel stupid or imposing. Do yourself a favor, and TAKE HIM.

Phenomenal entry level chemistry professor. Come to class, pay attention, do the homework, and you won't make less than a B. Easily understood, cares about his students, funny (sometimes corny), but a joy to take a class from
