Reviews of professor Jim Houlis

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Houlis is one of my favorites at AHC. Took Chem 120 over summer. He understands this is a prerequisite needed for other classes and he offered me an extension which really helped me turn in some assignments to boost my grade. Overall, put in the work, if you're behind/need help, talk to him and be honest. He's cares about his students.

He is a nice and funny person, but doesnt teach much. You will have to teach yourself. Fun class though I didnt learn anything

Prof. Houlis is super caring and realizes that most people take this class as a prerequisite for their future career. He loves to give practice problem worksheets and have you work in groups. He always gives out practice exams, which are very similar to the actual exam. He is quick to respond to any questions and encourages discussions on canvas.

Dr. Houlis is an amazing person. He genuinely care for his students and is always available for help, I mean 3 am if you need it. I learned a lot more than just chemistry from him. Best advise is to talk to him if your struggling or need extensions. He knows a thing or two about life so he is very compassionate.

Dr. Houlis is a great professor. I did slack off a bit during the beginning but he helped me out tremendously to get my grade up. He does not care for late work, as long as you turn it in; but still, save yourself the hassle and help Dr. Houlis get your grade in on time by staying on top of your stuff. I would definitely take him again.

Makes this class miserable by providing an almost undoable workload for what the class really is. Don't expect to learn anything, but expect lots of tangents, gaslighting, and a million changes to the lab procedures. Homework quizzes have lots of typos and he often can't help with the questions. He accepts late work though which is nice.
