CHEM2B . Butler A 13 Years Ago

Don't get lectures? Go to office hour.Still don't understand? Then you're stupid. She'll sure treat you like that too. She'll call you out. She makes time to help students, but don't expect yourself to do any better. Homework and tests are conflicting. She includes subtle exceptions that will confuse you for the rest of the course. Terrible.

Some of the concepts were confusing but if you want to learn and do well you definitely can. She wants you to visit her during office hours and if you don't get too intimidated with her teaching style it will help.

Professor Butler was very helpful when it came to drawing 3d diagrams and explaining difficult concepts. She also was very friendly and willing to help her students succeed.

Professor Butler is amazing. She will go out of her way to help you out and really wants all of her students to understand the material and do well. Be warned that you will get destroyed on tests if you don't keep up with the lectures and reading. Tough class, but you will definitely learn a LOT.

I took her class years ago, and I thought she was very helpful! No one ever said chemistry was going to be easy! She was always available to help though. I enjoyed the class.

Disregard all the other critiques of her class(those people were lazy, and can go **** themselves in the butt). She was very organized, very helpful(if you go to her office hours once it helps ten fold), she's very nice, and wants you to learn the subject with the most clarity and enthusiasm possible. She was a great honors chem teacher.go Butler!
