Professor Kolniak was great! Very understanding when it comes to time extensions for assignments. Prepared everyone well for quizzes and exams

Dr. Kolniak is an amazing professor who truly cares about his students, and is willing to help. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask him. The Smartwork HW does need to be completed, but it's just "busy work," so don't stress over it. He offers bonus at the end of the semester. If the class average is >75% there is a curve at the end :)

best college teacher i've ever had, presents the material to you clear and easily understandable, an easy A or B as long as you do the hw, quizes and review the old test for practice w/ the answer key tht he provides for you so you can understand the material better if its not getting to you, provides lots of help as well outside of class as well

This professor is one of the worst I have ever had. This was his first online class so maybe he will get better with practice. Some problems were that he posted assignments late, and his lecture notes were terrible and confusing which didn't help anyone on his numerous quizzes and tests. He also quit responding to my emails. Try to avoid!

A great teacher! Always knows when we need an extra day to turn things in and gives more time, premeditates questions before we even ask them, always keeps us in the loop about the upcoming schedule. The material is hard but he answers questions, even after class.

Great professor, I've taken him twice now and wish I could of taken him for all my chemistry courses. He gives good lectures, sets clear expectations, and is flexible about time constraints. One of the best teachers on campus without a doubt.

I had a bad experience with another chemistry teacher the semester before and was afraid to take this class again. Dr. K walked me through everything and explained everything in a way I understood. He wasn't arrogant or made me seem like I was the dumbest person in room. If you pay attention and do the assignments, YOU will pass his class!

Overall, great person; but tough professor. The lectures are spoken through nicely, the notes provided online are easy to understand; however, his exams were very difficult this year. I wouldnt take this professor again simply because of the exams he hands out. Theyre very heavily graded.

Bad at lectures. Homeowork is the hardest thing you will do. Grades exams hard.
