Reviews of professor Melissa Kofoed

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Kofoed is the kindest person! She truly cares about the success of her students and gives plenty of class time to answer all questions. Some topics are kind of complex, but she offers office hours where she is willing to talk through anything you don't understand. Make sure to watch the recorded lecture each week.

Dr. Kofoed is good at what she does, but teaches a difficult and uninteresting course. Her course is set up very similarly to Dr. Ensign's. Study hard and you'll be fine

A really good easy class. She really went over topics that we would be quizzed on. She does move a little fast, but just pay attention to the lectures and you'll be fine. With it being online it was hard to stay motivated, but she doesn't leave you in the dust. She provides opportunities to stay caught up with the class.

Dr Kofoed explains things pretty thoroughly and seems to care that her students understand. Some test questions can be kind of hard, but the practice exams are pretty similar to the real thing.

She records and uploads all of her lectures after every class and even offers prerecorded lectures that she made over the pandemic. She makes the content easy to understand, but it is A LOT to learn/remember. Quizzes and practice exams are similar to real exams and were vital in helping me study.

Prof. Kofoed was alright, she gave a warning at the start of the course, this is a 4 credit class with no TA's, which is a huge deal. No TA's means that you won't get any extra help. There's a few "TA's" that will go over the material before the exams, but not 2x a week for 1 hour like most 4 credit classes. Be ready, this intro class is not easy.

I really enjoyed Kofoed, and I learned a lot from her. She is a great lecturer and thoroughly answers questions. She has a lot of external resources that can assist you in this class, which helped a lot with my success in this class. You can tell she wants her students to succeed. I'm taking her again next semester!

Shes a good person, but seems to be following a script when she teaches, so its very boring. Doesn't ever really answer questions. watched all of the other proff stuff instead. Not super clear on teaching stuff, but you can tell she is really trying.

The class covers complex material, but she teaches it simply. If you can do the HW problem sets and practice tests, you will ace the exams!! She is very willing to meet with you and gives many resources to succeed. It is a fast past course, so make sure to stay on top of it. 3 exams, with an optional makeup exam to replace your lowest exam score
