Reviews of professor Heather Holmquest

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
This professor is incredibly passionate about what she teaches and enjoys sharing that passion with her students. She is fun and energetic, and is always engaging with the students. I certainly developed a lot of musical skill in her class. I'm definitely taking her again as much as possible.

Try not to walk into this class taking things personally. She is really sweet, but will absolutely demolish you with no mercy when assessing your counterpoint in front of the entire class. For the same reason, avoid angering her. Otherwise, she's pretty cool. A lot of people really like her. I think she's alright.

Worksheets for each class but not often graded. Very nice and very knowledgeable. Not the most interesting class or attention-grabbing lectures.

Holmquest manages to make theory, something terrifying to me, easy. She explains everything in a simple and straightforward way and provides resources to help you get a better grip on the challenging parts of the course. The class can get a bit boring at times... just a bit. The worksheets are pass/fail, so just complete it and you'll get an A!!

I love this woman. She will come help you specifically if she knows if you are struggling and is constantly open to explaining things. She understands how hard Music Theory is and she takes you through every step of the way. As long as you show up, you should do fine in this class.
