Reviews of professor Heather Pfannenstiel

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Hardest intro level class I have ever taken - I do not recommend

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Heather is a tough grader, but she will try her hardest to explain the material to you for you to understand and will stay late to help you, if she can. Yes, she is high energy, but I think that is an asset to keep her students awake and energized. Yes, I dropped the class, but I tend on retaking it with her again.

I found this class easy though I know some are struggling in my class. You will pass with flying colors if you put in minimal focus in the labs, remember to take the easy online quizzes, and cram the lab book 15 minutes or less before each weekly quiz. If you can't get an A in this class then you are going to have trouble in your field.

If you have little to no knowledge about this course you'll fail. Even reading before the class to prepare for the quiz you take doesn't help. Not very clear when lecturing and goes very fast. Terrible and not worth it.

For a General Ed class, It is very hard. She explains things in a complicated way and it is even hard for the tutor to teach me based on notes. Tests and quizzes are very difficult and learning curves and participation is only worth 5 points.

Very hard grader and teaches the material like it is an advanced course. Wouldn't recommend taking this introductory course with her again.

The class was unnecessarily difficult for only being an introduction course. The entire grade depends on the tests, which are much harder than the level she teaches you at. I am normally a very good student and I still barely passed her class. I do not recommend taking any of her courses unless you want to be quite frustrated the whole semester.
