Mrs. Porter is an amazing teacher. Her class has been the highlight of my year and has made me love earth science. I would 1000% recommend it to anybody who is interested in trying.

I took Earth 2 with Prof, Porter and it was a great class. Lectures were very engaging and the pacing of the course was very good. She was very approachable and accessible via email or office hours. If you are looking for an easy A, she is not the professor. Although lectures were great, the labs, assignments, and tests were very disorganized.

Probably my favorite teacher at this school, she is very welcoming, accommodating, and always willing to discuss paleontology with her students. Her presentations are entertaining, the class content is very interesting, and the final project is very fun. Unfortunately for weaker test takers like myself, tests will significantly impact your grade.

She uses iClickers to take attendance, so you might want to go to class. The class is named Dinosaurs, but we don't learn much about them until the end. The class isn't too hard, but the tests can be a bit tricky. She's nice and offers study sessions before midterm/final.

I usually hate science classes, but this was more of an easy memorization class. She made the lectures very interesting. I actually enjoyed the labs.

Can't believe how much I enjoyed this class! Made me interested in Earth Science. Professor Porter is really nice and I felt comfortable attending her office hours. She really explains things well, just focus on memorization, lab work and showing up for iClicker points. Labs are really fun and easy. Definitely the best GenEd class ever.
