Reviews of professor Alicia Howard

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I loved Ms. Howards class. Her reviews are similar to the tests and she is so helpful when you dont understand or need something. Shes funny & caring and wants to see you pass. You WILL have to study, its CHEM! She makes class enjoyable which makes you want to do good. Heavy hand when grading tests but nonetheless a great instructor. 9/10 do it

She's more concerned w/ students as friends than teaching her class. She left numerous students believing that they would be fine through out the semester just to fail them. Grades are never done in time to drop class. Lacks priorities, talks too much about personal events than teaching course mater. If serious about grades take another prof.

Dr. Howard is a wonderful professor! She truly cares about her students and wants you to do well! She makes Chem 1305 easy to understand. I would take her again in a heartbeat! Textbook is not needed, just study her slides and you will do well on the exam! She gives you plenty of practice problems to master what you are learning in class!

I never believed all what you learn in class should be given to you by professor, you should also do your part and study. But this professor, seems like she doesn't like teaching. You can't just set on chair and read off of powerpoint, and when she teaches she seems not interested. Get up, do examples, speak louder. Being funny not enough in chem!!

Chemistry is a subject that should be well explained to learn... nothing at all was well explained or put into different manners so that students understand. She goes through boring slides and reads off of them and rarely got up from her seat to do examples or write things on the board. You pretty much need to teach yourself outside class.

Knewton assignments and quizzes for homework. Lockdown browser with her custom made tests. Questions tend to not fit reviews. Her videos explaining don't fully go into the subject. You're left guessing if you know the right thing. Takes a while to reach. Not the best chemistry professor. But, if you can teach yourself the class, go for it.

Dr. Howard is an awesome teacher! She is extremely patient when teaching a difficult subject. Make sure you ask questions if you are feeling lost and she will be more than happy to help you understand better. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to have her as a teacher!

Dr. Howard is a very funny and caring instructor. The homework was online and was sometimes difficult but we had a lot of time to do it . We learned mostly by PowerPoint so its up to you to pay attention/ take notes. Reviews were like the test.
