Reviews of professor Emily Sprafka-Coleman

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Get ready for a lot of everyday unnecessary quizzes. Doesnt do a great job explaining and horrible feedback.

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Good class that has prepared me well for chemistry in the future, but not a fun class. Never gave positive feedback, only told what you did wrong. Content is difficult/demanding, but nothing impossible. Had some odd demands, like telling her what we did everyday in her class through a google form. Make sure to read all the modules thoroughly.

Grading doesn't make sense, belittles you when you ask for assistance or makes you feel incompetent. Feedback when you ask questions is every passive-aggressive.

The reason I switched colleges and almost dropped out of school. I am surprised her behavior and teaching has not been looked into. She does not like life and takes it out on her students. Chem is already hard. Why make it more hard.

You'll be teaching yourself with her videos and or relying on outside sources to understand. You could get all the answers correct on an assessment but if it's not good enough you risk failing. The average amount of attempts to pass an assessment is about 2-4X. When I asked for help understanding a subject I left feeling embarrassed and confused.

She is the type that will demand explanations from you (while marking you wrong) for basic math but when you ask a for explanation on something you either don't get a response or it isn't helpful. Her feed-back was my biggest issue. Giving vague answers to what you got wrong so you can't try to correct it for the next assignment! Find a diff prof!

She leaves everything up to the students and really is hands-off. She can be rude and not help you catch up. Don't fall behind and don't try to skip over the work it will bite you.

I took 5 classes w/ Spraf. Worst teacher I've ever had. Tests aren't what you studied. Labs are graded as English papers & unfair. If you get the question right, she'll mark you wrong somehow. I had better work than other students, she gave me worse grades. She won't help if you ask questions. Don't recommend her if you want the grade you earned.

I had to take chem 121 online due to covd-19, the professor didn't seem so knowledgeable about online classes. Accused me about getting answers from other students as well as 6 others. After that point she started to grade me harder. Also if you ask questions, shes passive aggressive with the reply and are of no help. Expect, assignments everyday.

Her lectures are informative and entertaining, and she always gives great feedback to questions. She makes herself available for her students, and gives plenty of resources for practice. Her grading is a little odd, but it makes it easier to focus on the material. Just don't expect her to put more effort into you than you're putting into the class.
