Reviews of professor Kelly Rickey

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
If you can take a class with her, do it. The one and only thing that is not amazing is that she is not the best at responding to emails. Other than that, her lectures and grading criteria are clear and she grades easily in the first place.

Heat Transfer is one of the hardest classes I've taken, and yet Rickey is one of the best professors I've had. She explained the material well, and seemed to care about students a lot. She did a good job transitioning to the online format, with all of the covid-19 stuff going on. I would recommend.

Even though I really don't like her lecture style, easiest 5 of my life. She is able to convey the material in incredible detail while keeping it clear. You will rarely leave a lecture with unanswered questions. No brainer if she's an option.

In all fairness, this professors lectures are quite boring. However, the material in the lectures is AMAZING. Her lectures are very clear and concise and very rarely leave unanswered questions. If you can keep your attention focused on her, you would be hard pressed to find a better professor.

Dr. Rickey cares for all of her students and has a passion for what she does. She will answer questions in OH and class; she is so smart and will clearly communicate steps to solving a problem if you seek help.

Dr. Rickey was a wonderful professor, and I would highly recommend taking a class with her. I got sick through the semester, and she sent me zoom videos so I could catch up. Dr. Rickey also did group quizzes, and she would give a change to correct our answers if they were wrong. Take the class you won't regret it.

Dr. Rickey is one of the best professors in the mechanical department.  She is caring and gives lectures full of example problems that help for homework and tests. Very accessible outside of class if needed.

Kelly Rickey is very sweet and helps students understand why concepts work and what they can be applied to. Her teaching style is perfect if you like understanding derivations of why equations work so you know when to use them. Overall, one of the better teachers I've had, who is very open to questions and helps overall understanding.
