Reviews of professor Sarah Chisholm

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
One of the best profs, if not the best prof I've ever had, very sweet and understanding. If you're only taking a math class because you need it, take this one with Dr. Chisholm, absolutely no regrets. The content isn't too bad if you put in the work, even if you struggle with math

3 lectures a week, one lesson each, homework for each lesson. Marked on homework and 3 group projects. Can get up to 5 homework assignments dropped for extra marks. Sarah will answer questions or emails within about a day and is very supportive to her students. Supports in this course are readily available and are displayed on brightspace.

One of the nicest and most caring faculty members at Dalhousie. Makes success possible even if you suck at math.

Dr.Chisholm was my favourite prof this semester. She is very clear at explaining concepts and her lessons are very easy to follow! I would recommend going to her extra help sessions as they are extremely helpful in clearing up confusing topics. The exams were very fair and had little to no surprises!

Dr. Sarah is the best math professor I have had in my whole life. From grade 1 at school until now, this was my favorite year learning math because of her. We're lucky to experience at least once, the teaching from such a professional and caring teacher. Would recommend 10000%

Super nice. Offers help right after class. Homework after every class but more like revision. 

Highly Recommend

My favourite prof this semester! Dr. Chisholm is super sweet and understanding. The exams were easy and had no surprises (got my first A+ as a first-year student). Very supportive and accessible outside of the classroom. Highly recommend!

As said by others in this feed, she is an incredible professor. As a student who does struggle receiving strong grades, I did not expect this from her class. If she taught anything else (that I haven't already taken) I would register because she was just that good.
I would not pair this class with other classes that have high workloads.

Sarah posts lectures three times/week, and they'll teach you everything you really need to know about intro calculus. I reached out to her several times outside of class time and she was always willing to sit down with me and work through any problems I had. Calculus may not be everyone's cup of tea, but she certainly makes it a bit more palatable.

Sarah was very accommodating and caring throughout the semester. Class has a lot of homework, but its usually manageable, and she does give the option of dropping your 5 lowest scores of the 28. Group projects in a 1st year Math class were a nice change and they were rather simple and marked easy. Recommend 1215 over 1000 for any science students.
