Reviews of professor Jennifer Koehl

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Koehl is a kind woman, but you basically teach yourself everything. I got an A because I studied for HOURS. If you don't study you will seriously fail. She will answer any questions you have, but talks for 30 minutes, and then everyone left the zoom and did everything on their own. Labs are supposed to be collaborative. I would avoid taking her

Dr. K made it her priority to connect with the class and she did exactly that. She joked with us and always made lecture fun. Although bio isn't the easiest subject, she lectured in a way everyone could understand. All she wanted was the best for her students both in class and outside of class. Super easy to talk to.

Dr. Koehl overall is such a nice person, but the online format was very difficult. Post lab quizzes were so hard. She would handle class by reviewing the lab manual of the week and have you basically teach yourself the rest. Definitely take advantage of the visible body courseware. Practical exams weren't hard at all if you studied a lot.

Honestly she's one of the best teachers here. If you can show up and be dedicated towards the class you should pass. Professor Koehl is always open for discussion outside of class. Highly recommend.

Biology is a hard topic overall but her teaching style isn't so bad. She will always recommend coming to office hours and asking questions. Very boring lectures though.

Dr. Koehl is very passionate about what she teaches, and she wants her students to succeed and share a passion for veterinary medicine. She explains her expectations very well and the class is an easy freshman seminar class with lots of different information about veterinary medicine to help you figure out if this field is for you. Highly recommend

Amazing professor. She always was there when you needed her either personally or for help in class. Easy to talk to but definitely need to study for exams!!

She has high expectations, but she's so caring. You can tell she's a mother because she makes you all feel like her kids. She's always accessible if you have a question and her enthusiasm about what she teaches makes you genuinely want to learn. Just participate and you'll take so much away from the class. Love her!

super nice and understanding, she gives small lectures then the rest of the lab is spent working on terms. don't be afraid to ask for help.

I had Dr. Koehl for bio 163 on zoom and while she was a super nice lady and genuinely cares about her students, she's a terrible lecturer and does not explain things very well. I was very confused after every lecture and had to teach myself everything. The tests are pretty hard and the post-class quizzes are too. Might have been better in person.
