Honestly one of the best sci teachers I've ever had. Very relatable and patient, gives AWESOME lectures, a bit of a "mad scientist" vibe that makes it interesting. Very easy to contact and always willing to talk shop. Teaches you everything, but tells you what to focus on for exams. She made chemistry fun for once, and that means a lot, I think.

Taken as an online class. She's on zoom 24/7. She grades your work within a day whereas most other professors take a week to two. She very clearly cares about her students and is very lighthearted (except when grading). Loads of extra credit and prep material for exams. She does talk very fast, as mentioned, and can be hard to follow at times.

ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIC. I don't need 112 and I contemplated taking it FOR FUN. Pay attention, she works fast. Take pictures of her examples. Labs are fun and relevant. Final is cumulative but exams are CH specific. Homework is heavy but she gives practice quizzes for all CH w unlmtd attempts. Math heavy but such is chem. EC opps galore. U won't regret

Dr. Burton is a very caring professor who wants her students to succeed. Her lectures are very fast paced, definitely utilize all of her materials especially EC! CHM 112 is a tough course, but she tries to make understandable as much as possible. Her lab is straightforward and she makes everyone creates their own lab notebook. Definitely take her!

Dr. B wants her students to succeed and was always there to help whether on zoom (video chat) or through remind (text). She graded assignments very quickly. Her videos uploaded to canvas about the chapters were very informative and helpful. She gives lots of EC.

Ms Burton is excellent. Very flexible, clear outline. You know exactly what you need to do to pass. She gives lots of extra credit and study guides for the tests. I took her online Chem class over the summer

Dr. B is like your "cool" grandma. She is very caring and understanding; however, there's a lot of things in lecture that need to be covered. With a limited amount of time, she has to talk quickly! But there are a LOT of EC. I can see how some may struggle with this course, but if you're good with math, this is an easy A course. Also tests are fair

Professor Burton was very face paced which can be a downside because you probably won't understand some concepts. I liked her as a person she is funny and caring but she was a very hard teacher and grader. she does give a lot of extra credit. DO IT. I recommend her if you are really good in chemistry already. get ready to study ALOT.

Professor Burton makes CHM111 easy! She's a very hard worker and knows the subject matter very well. She goes very quickly and this isn't a class you're going to fall asleep in. Things even might go over your head (happened to me but I still did very well). That being said there's still many assignments to be done and many extra credit chances.

Dr. Burton is a good professor. She is cleverly funny. Although, she is fast-paced - but will stop to help you if need be. The class was hybrid so we met only once a week which really meant there was a lot packed into 3 hours. Wouldn't necessarily say she's consistent with the way she grades. Overall okay experience. Study hard & you will do well

Professor Burton's easily one of the top 3 professors at NOVA. Although the class has a lot of homework, she really puts in the extra mile to help her students. Her class notes make it easy to follow class discussions and as long as you read the labs ahead of time you should be fine. (She also has a good sense of humor)

Hands down best chemistry professor at NOVA. The lectures are never boring and she explains everything clear but she will stop and help you if you are confused. The labs are fun to do and she cares for your safety. She also give a lot of extra credit so take average. Exams aren't too bad but you will definitely pass the class. She's funny too.

So far, Prof Burton is great. I really love having her as a professor! CHM is a hard subject, but she does her best (and succeeds) at making the subject understandable, as well as making class time enjoyable. I will definitely be taking her again for CHM112! Also, she gives a lot of extra credit.

She is the BEST professor I have ever taken at NOVA. I have never thought I would like chemistry and get an A. She gives lots of worksheets for extra credits. Tests are very fair and related to her lectures and worksheets which is extremely helpful. She is also willing to help you during her office hours. Take this opportunity. TAKE HER!

Hands down best chem prof. took 112 at annadale got a D then took Burton got an A and never used the textbook. Lectures are fast, but clear and amazing. Lab is easy as well. Drops lowest quiz in lec&lab, final replaces lowest test grade. Tons of extra credit opportunities and holds study sessions which truly help. Recommend her to any student.
