Reviews of professor Esther Patch

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Honestly professor Patch was incredible. It's only a 1200 chemistry course but she is so willing to help you with any questions you have. I took my lab with her and it was great. You honestly would have to TRY to get a bad grade in her class. Would student again.

Honestly I learned nothing from this class. I struggled to keep my grade up the whole time. All the powerpoints are on canvas so I didnt always go to class but they made no sense either way and I still felt like I learned nothing. The tests were so different from the notes and homework and were soo hard. Homework was hard and confusing too.

She is such a caring lady and so nice, however her teaching wasn't the greatest. She was pretty hard to follow during lectures and I learned more from the science lab tutors than from her. You never know what to expect on the tests. She luckily would curve the tests and allowed test corrections, however I didn't learn a single thing from her.

Patch is awesome. She is the ideal Lab instructor I've only dreamt of until I met her. You of course have to come to class, but she is very flexible with grading, deadline extensions, and accepting reworked assignments. If you turn in your work early, she will offer extra points. She is super fun to be with in class, helpful, and the best!

Tests were tough. Her homework and tests are not related so it is hard to study for tests. Her teaching style was hard for me to understand concepts. Even when she tried to explain it differently, it was hard to understand. Other than that, she is nice and willing to help everyone. She was excited about the content, powerpoint lectures.
