Reviews of professor Machelle Gavron

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Horrible lab teacher, yells unnecessarily, and grades way too hard for no particular reason. Take any other lab prof. She doesn't explain things well, such as what you missed points for, nor does she explain how to properly do it. She takes away points for the littlest thing. Save your GPA and take this class with anyone else.

The tough grader is an understatement! I don't know who she thinks she is, she isn't even a professor! She's just an adjunct/department assistant. She will mark correct answers wrong, I know this because she corrected my exam last time, and it was super low until I took it to the chem prof. to get it reviewed and get points back. She needs to chill

Extremely tough grader and very loud in lab. However, she is actually very knowledge and kind once you get on her good side. She does a lot for students to ensure they are safe and understand what is going on in lab.

Professor Gavron is extremely loud and excessive, however she is knowledgeable and takes safety extremely serious. If you get stressed out easily and are afraid of professors calling you out for a mistake, choose another professor.

I don't think she knows the material herself, because when asked a question, there are no answers. She just follows a protocol. She does get upset when you ask her a question. You will start the lab clueless and leave clueless.

I see a lot of negative reviews but I personally loved Prof Gavron and wish she taught more than general chemistry labs. She is always around to help, responds to emails and teams very quickly, gives clear directions, grades incredibly fairly, and most importantly, is incredibly understanding. If you miss a lab due to life issues, she will help you

Out of the 19 credits I took this semester, her 1 credit lab stressed me out more than my 3 credit classes. Refused to give extensions even when most of the class isn't finished, extremely passive aggressive in person and over announcements. Unapproachable. Graded major assignment 9 hours before revisions for final draft were due and did not extend

Gen Chem lab was so difficult!! This is because it was based on the grading of very vague assignments and the fact that you have to finish every lab write-up by the time the lab ends, which is essentially an hour and twenty minutes to do the lab and write-up was so difficult! Very hard class!!
