Comment:

She is one of the worst professors I have ever had. She is condescending, and rude. She won't let you ask for help from the person sitting next to you; she makes you get it from her. When you go up there to get help, she makes you feel like an idiot. Her grading scale and teaching style is WAY too different to comprehend. DO NOT TAKE HER.

Comment:

Terrible class to take. All she does is sit and write down her lecture on the overhead. She does not explain things and when you ask, she treats you very poorly and doesn't even answer the question. There is no clarity with anything. She seems nice at first but comes off as a major smart aleck. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. You won't learn anything.

Comment:

My name is Kenneth Watts.I normally wouldn't rate a teacher but believe me this is for your benefit. This is one the most miserable old ladies I have come across. It is her way or no way and her grading methods are ridiculous. For example I received 2 points on a 10 point problem and had the correct answer.

I wish I used this website before registering with her because I would have went to a different instructor. All of the student comments are true. Including her rudeness and condescending demeanor.

Comment:

Most condescending woman I have ever spoken to. She encourages you to ask questions then makes you feel like an idiot when you do. Oh, and bathroom breaks are half an absence btw. Do not take if you are not going into a field in which you would need a good knowledge of chemistry.

Comment:

Horrible teacher. Do not take her class. Please believe all the comments on here. If you're taking her class make sure that you've had a few years of chemistry under your belt because she explains nothing and degrades you. I'm a straight A student and I find her difficult, hard to follow, understand, mean and marks you absent for bathroom breaks.

Comment:

took Dr. Dixon ~2 yrs ago for chem I (lab only). wanted to disprove the previous comments on here, figured she was just serious about her subject. but she is a bit ridiculous. learned good lab procedures, but she is scary & has her own rules for everything. believes there is only one correct way to figure out a problem (her way). TAKE DR. ROBERSON.

Comment:

Avoid this class at all costs!! I gave it a shot and after being disrespected, talked to like a child, insulted and failed on a quiz for showing my work I had to drop it. I honestly do not know how she still has a job. One Wrong comment and expect to be humiliated by her. Its like she wants her students to fail. AVOID her!!

Mrs Dixon has twisted view of reality and the classroom. I was unable to follow her because she explains simple concepts in difficult and intricate ways. I would say avoid at all cost!

Comment:

First off, seating chart? she snaps at a phones ringing and won't clearly answer any question.Writes on a unlined notebook with illegible handwriting, so taking notes is difficult, you have to spend 3hours studying after her lecture to understand what she was talking about. Classes are dull and I feel sorry for anyone who takes her class.

Comment:

Dr. Dixon teaches the old way...memorize! She does explain things but without the lab it will be harder to understand. Hopefully she is retiring. You can get a good grade if you do the work. Memorize for the quizzes (25% of grade). Read the book and do the homework for yourself (not required). I'd have received higher than a C+ if I had.

Comment:

3 pretty easy quizzes; 3 moderate multiple choice tests; optional homework. Not much to say about Mrs. Dixon. Most people hate her but she really isn't that bad. She's a good teacher but not so much a people-person.

Do not take Dr Dixon if you're not willing to spend a lot of your own time working out the problems. She would rush through some topics in class. Her tests are pretty hard, too.

Comment:

Hands down the WORSE professor I have EVER taken. She is ridiculous in so many ways. Anytime a student would ask a legitimate question she would come back with something insulting and degrading. She is a COLLEGE CHEMISTRY teacher yet keeps a seating chart and puts grammar on tests. What a miserable professor. I recommend Hathaway or Roberson!

Comment:

She is mean, disrespectful and very condescending. She offers very little help inside and outside of class, and is quite intimidating. However, IF you can swallow your pride, she is not an unfair grader, the class was not too hard.

Comment:

Dr. Dixon is condesending. She's extremely rude although she talks as if she isnt. DO NOT TAKE HER. She makes you feel so stupid, to the point of tears. I understand chemistry and she made me feel like I didn't know anything. :'(
