Reviews of professor Kathleen Leamy

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I was so disappointed with Leamy. I had heard good things, but she was honestly not a great professor. The class was not too hard and she is genuinely a nice person, but she was VERY specific in her grading; all of her tests are free response and it is very clear she was looking to take points off rather than find what is right about your answer.

Dr. Leamy is very passionate about what she does, you can just see it. She loves chemistry and wants to make it as easy as possible for you to succeed in her classes. She always made herself available at office hours and really worked to help you understand the content.

Amazing professor. I had only taken a chemistry course over the summer in high school, so let's just say that I didn't have a good baseline for this course. However, due to her lectures, I was able to get an A- up until the final. I would recommend studying hard for tests, but she is very available outside of class for help. Definitely take this!!

Leamy is honestly the best chem 101 teacher at GU. She really cares if students do well, she has lecture slides for notes and always has end of the chapter notes. You will still have to work hard for a good grade but she makes it doable. You don't really need the textbook but I used it for extra practice problems. I would definitely recommend.

Dr. Leamy is an amazing teacher , and gave relevant problem sets and lectures that always made me feel prepared for the tests. I have never had a professor that honestly cared about each and every student in her class as much as her. If you are undecided on a chem professor, TAKE DR. LEAMY!

Leamy is a great professor for chemistry 101. She had guided notes for each lecture making it easy to understand what is important to know. She is willing to help if you show that you are willing to put in the work.

Yikes. Rough. I took the course Spring 2019 and It was one of the hardest because Dr. Leamy was pretty strict as a professor. Maybe she has changed, but this is my experience.

Professor Leamy was easily the hardest professor I have ever taken - but I don't fully blame her. Teaching chemistry as a first year professor has it's challenges, but it was often times hard to get the one-on-one attention that I personally needed in her class. I struggled throughout her class, and had to seek help elsewhere.

Dr. Leamy was really good for chemistry lab. She didn't mind helping students (even through the entire lab) and was really nice. She understands that Lab is difficult and that students have more than one class. Great lab professor, and an easy A if you just do the one assignment a week.
