Reviews of professor John Saunders

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
DO NOT TAKE THIS GUY FOR CHEM 192. whole class is based on exams, lots of homework that barely counts towards your grade, explains a concept briefly and expects you to get it right off the bat, makes you feel dumb for asking questions. On one of the lab day, he threatened to take off points because he wants to leave and go eat before lecture.

Really interesting guy. Teaches good tips and gets you out of your comfort zone. I wish the speeches were more interesting topic wise. Creates a more chill class environment than most professors

I loved John's class! He was great in person, and was just as great during our sudden transition to online class. Very helpful and understanding, but makes you work. He provides lots of study resources on Canvas like practice worksheets and old exams! He was easy to reach out to as well. 5 exams (lowest dropped), pre-labs, lab reports, online hw.

Taking his Chem 192 class was by no means easy but he made it manageable. Lecture notes were posted on Canvas, course materials were affordable, and grading is very clear. He was also super easy to approach with questions. The one thing that could use improvement would be giving more direct/helpful feedback during labs. I would recommend him!
