She is a very good teacher. She is willing to help students out whenever they need. She explains everything in a very understandable manner.
Very helpful and knowledgable. Willing to help you if you help yourself. Good teacher and good person.
She is the nicest teacher ever. I felt really comfortable in her class.
Andrea's great. She's really sweat, and she's a great teacher.
Nice professor whp's always willing to help if you have problems.
Easy teacher as long as you pay attention and come to class.
This was the best instructor I have had so far in my two years of college. If you are willing to go to class a pay attention, definately take her.
great great great
Very good teacher, easy as long as you attend class and pay attention, currently pregnant
Chemistry101 is for non-majors, and she is great at explaining everything. It was easier than high school chemistry. All you have to study is your notes to make an A.
No Comments
Does a great job explaining the information considering the complexity.
I love Mrs.Leonard! Shes a great teacher and she trys to make sure everyone gets the material. She truly cares about her students and shes cool. She definately makes the tests easy and understandable, and never tries to throw anything over your head.
EXTREMELY easy teacher! She'll make chemistry seem like a breeze. She's always willing to help. You don't even really need the textbook except for its practice problems. Study your notes, do practice problems, and you'll make an A.
cool lady and really helpful if you need it.. but her tests gradually got harder.. i think our class average was around a 70.. not good
Very good teacher. She explained things very well and made sure you understood things.
EXTREMELY hard class. she is a good teacher, just really hard material and really hard tests. very hard to make an A
She's a very helpful teacher, but we didn't have any extra credit. She explains things very well. You have to study, but that's any chemistry class. I had her while she was pregnant and then our class switched to Perkins. Leonard was very clear and worked problems step by step. I thought she was a great chemistry teacher.
ms leonard was very nice and explained everything very well. she had a baby half way through our semester, but still wrote emails to us making sure everyone was doing okay. take her!
she was a cool teacher the class itself is hard and sucks but she does a good job of being very clear and teaching with interest take it with her youll see
She is a wonderful teacher. This class really is not that hard (all you have to do is study). She explains everything step by step and is always willing to help. Dont freak out---this class is not that bad! Its bad with other teachers, but not with her. Take her if you can!
Cool and Hott. Shes really bright and connects well with everyone!
She is without a doubt the best into. to chem teacher. With the amount of material covered she makes it not so overwhelming. She makes it so anyone can learn if they try. Recommend..if you can get into the class. :)
Took her in the summer of 07, great teacher. Material seemed slow and easy for 1st three tests, but that doesn't mean no studying, just steady paced. Last test material was about as much as the 1st three combined! But the test was no harder than any given before. I could have made an A, if I had pushed a little more - still kickin myself for that.
VERY FUNNY! loved her. took her during the summer and she was great! hard tests but all you have to do is study. not hard to make an A.
had her during the fall of 07 and she was by far my favorite teacher. if you listen in class and do the problems she assigns its a lot easier. she makes a hard class easy.
she is a lively teacher however the information is very hard and she does kind of assume that you understand it as well as she does.
Not a bad teacher considering the subject. Somewhat favors certain students!
Very good teacher, she loves to joke around and tell stories of her little girl but, otherwise, shes a very good teacher. The lab is super easy, out of a lab manual of 150 pages we only did 16 labs. She gives you everything you need over moodle so you have all the information you need. Memorizing elements and things are hard, start studying early.
awesome awesome will probably come out the class with a B but i have a kid and i work so my fault. she definitely will help you and an A is very attainable
AWESOME! She's hilarious and extremely helpful. Gives notes to you and you fill them in, in class. Get old tests. Problems in the back of the book are ten times harder than her test so don't bother. Do the old test and practice exams and go to class and you'll be fine. If you struggle she will gladly help- great instructor
the first time i took her i had to drop..then the next time i took her i still had problems understanding the material..her tests are very confusing..she tries to trick you!
Mrs. Leonard is a great teacher! The only problem is I strongly dislike Chemistry!! I made a C in this class and I studied hard! Mrs. Leonard explains things very clearly. I should have gone to her for help more and done my homework more religiously but DO NOT underestimate her tests! They are difficult. She's a very nice lady and very funny though
Really Great Teacher!! Will help anyone who is willing to ask for it. Her test are hard and you do have to study, but she is always willing to answer questions and explain herself again if needed. She's also pretty funny.. Take her.
She is an extremely nice teacher. She was one of the best that I have had. Her test are not hard as long as you study and pay attention in class. We did notuse a book she put all the notes in Moodle. Take her if you get a chance.
awesome teacher!!! she is really helpful and organized. she cares about your understanding of the subject.
awesome teacher. she explains everything ahead of time and makes everything almost dummy proof.
I enoyed being in her class because she obviously takes her job seriously and makes chemistry interesting.
Great teacher! I really enjoyed going to class because she was fun teacher. Lecture class with notes given in class so you have to go to get the notes. Not a tricky class and pretty basic chemistry. As long as you study a few days before the exam this class should be a breeze!
Awesome teacher. I really do not like chemistry, but she made it so interesting for me. Very funny and nice. Probobly the best teacher I have had at ULL.
She is a GREAT teacher. She made my first semester at ULL an enjoyable one. She really makes sure you understand it. The test are a little hard, but nothing you can't handle. You get to drop your lowest grade and the final is curved big time. TAKE HER!
Ms. Leonard was a great teacher!! She was very organized with her lectures and she had half-made outlines for us and during class we would fill in the blanks in the outlines. It saved a lot of time and I didn't have to constantly write down notes because half of them were already typed out. You have to study a lot because the tests aren't easy.
She's great! One of the best teachers I have had thus far at UL and I'm a junior. No text book at all but she gives detailed notes, sample problems and a practice test for every exam. I have an A in the class, super easy if you stay on top of the labs and quizes...
She is enthusiastic and easy to understand. Probably one o the best teachers I have ever had, definitely the best chemistry teacher.
I loved her and her class! She made things fun and understandable and was willing to help anyone. She was very interesting because she had cute little stories. I really enjoyed her!
LOVED this class, and I hate Chemistry! She's such a fantastic teacher; easy to understand and so approachable. She doesn't believe that ANY question is a stupid one. I also loved that she provides notes that you fill in while she lectures, so no textbook. Great class.
She was a great teacher and I hated chemistry before I took her class.
Even though I hate chemisty, I loved Mrs. Leonard and I think she is a fantastic teacher! If u struggle with chemisty, u will be so happy to take her. This is still a hard class, but she gives notes that u fill in during class lectures that help tremendously. She is funny too. :)
Although Chemistry is challenging, Andrea makes it easier on you.. She enjoys what she's doing and helps you whenever she's needed. She's also hilarious :) take her!!
Mrs. Leonard is an extremely helpful teacher. Her lectures are from PowerPoint (which you can print out) and she's willing to explain material over and over again. Drops the lowest test but she doesn't curve or do bonus because of the Nursing program. The material is definitely NOT hard especially if you have some knowledge in chemistry you just have to really apply yourself and study it... GOOD LUCK!
TAKE THIS TEACHER! She is absolutely fantastic. Her fill-in-the-blank notes are excellent. She is very helpful and funny too. No bonus points or curving, but your lowest grade can be dropped (non-comprehensive final that CANNOT be dropped)
Mrs. Leonard is AMAZING! She is so sweet and funny! Her notes are very clear, and her class goes by really fast! The material is not easy, but she makes it fun to learn. I recommend her to ANYONE. Studying is required, but attendance is not. Although she will not give you the notes you have to find them on your own. TAKE HER
She's a great teacher but organic chemistry just makes the class suck.
Love her! If you get to take her consider yourself very lucky. Probably one of my favorite classes this semester and I have no interest in Chemistry.
try not to miss a class ..hard material but she explains it well, you will have to study the material in order to do well on the test. very good teacher and very helpful and understanding!
she is an awesome teacher. she takes her time out for students
she is very helpful. she cares about her students
If you have to take a chemistry do everything you can to get into her class. She is very helpful and cares. She is very willing to help and you can understand her well. Highly recommend her!!!!
I am an English Major, took this as an electice, never opened the text book, and I have an A in this class. Print the notes and follow along every class. She's extremely helpful and fair and lets you know exactly what she expects from you on the test. One of the best teachers on campus. Very funn too.
Definitely recommend her! She explains everything on PowerPoint and very interesting. Willing to help all you have to do is email her. She provide practice problems to help with test from textbook and a practice test. WORK PRACTICE PROBLEMS!; definitely take her. &' also work sapling problems. They help with your grade.. AWESOME TEACHER!!! (:
Mrs.Leonard was an amazing teacher. She was very clear on her teaching and if you did not understand she was very helpful on making sure you understood. Her personality is what makes the class. If you study her notes and the practice tests you will make an A. I recommend to study at least 3 days in advance to make sure you understand the stuff.
Absolute amazing teacher! Hands down the best teacher I have had at UL!! She explained everything and made sure everyone understood. Go to class and copy the notes and you will do fine in the class!
Great teacher! very helpful and honest. Test come straight from the notes. Do the hw and practice problems out of the book and you will do fine. We really didnt use the book for other than your own personal use so I wouldnt recommend buying it. I loved her class and made an A
Her online class is SO easy... The video lectures are easy to understand and great to copy notes from. Only have face-to-face class on the days of the tests. Which was like 4 times all semester. Take her class!
Amazing teacher! I loved her! She is so helpful and explains everything so clearly. She is also very funny and entertaining. Takes something as boring as chemistry and makes it fun and interesting. I would definitely take her again!
She is amazing teacher. She's so smart and she makes sure you understand what she is teaching you, she doesnt just leave you hanging. I love her and her teaching skills, I recommend her the anyone and everyone who has to take a chemistry class!!
She is hands down the best teacher in the world! I never understood chemistry and made nothing less than a 97 on all her tests. She really does make chem an interesting and fun class to go to. Do the practice problems in the book and study the notes she posts on moodle and of course go to class and you will do just fine.
Very nice professor. She is very clear & is always available if you need help. He labs were too easy & very fun. I would highly recommend!
One of the sweetest teachers I've had in my 3 years here. Very helpful, makes everything understandable, and offers a lot of one-on-one. GO TO LAB! There's no reason not to, 10 points just for showing up! Great teacher, Great class .. nothing to worry about.
She was a wonderful professor... Even though she did tell us our first day of class that this class was very hard, I did very well considering her help and the help of other students through email. I would recommend anyone to take her for this class!
I love her personality! This class was a little difficult, but if time is taken out for the class everyone should have a guaranteed A or B. She is also extremely helpful. There is no reason to fail this course and I took it online.
I wasn't going to take a summer class but I decided to seeing as how it was online. The videos were really streight foward and same for the exam. The professor was extremely understandable about me leaving the country for powerlifting. Ended up taking the exam about two weeks after the original date. One of my favorite professors by far!
I was recommended by a friend to take Andrea. I am so thankful that I did! She really clear and lets you know precisely what is on the test; no surprises. I finished the class with a high B with the intention of making a C or lower at the beginning of the semester.
Very good video lectures which helped tremendously in understanding the course work. She is excellent at explaining ideas simply. I would highly recommend her as an instructor.
Her personality comes out of a sitcom. I thought she was funny. Course work is broken up into managable pieces. A little (not dangerously,)fast paced for me. Went to tutoring weekly to slow things down a bit. Passed the class with a B. An A was totally managable, but made simple mistakes that prevented it. Would absolutely take her again.
Mrs. Leonard is an amazing teacher, I love her so much! She is straightforward and funny. She explains everything perfectly and makes Chemistry interesting. There is no reason anyone should fail. Also, doing the textbook problems she recommends is a big help. Hands down, my favorite teacher at ULL! Take her class!!
She is an amazing teacher but her test are pretty tough. Make sure you study more then the practice exam!!!! She drops one test grade and is very willing to help. She is funny and really enjoys teaching. I definitely recommend her!
She is an awesome teacher! She is very easy to understand and talk to. She is also very helpful with anything you need! No textbook is required. She uploads the powerpoints online, print them, and bring to class. That is basically all you need!
I loved this class. I already liked chemistry, but she added a new flare to it. She's really fun and helpful/approachable and makes class interesting, I'll be taking her 107 class for my other physical science elective.
Would recommend. She's very clear about what will be on the tests & she gives practice tests w answers worked out, which help a lot. She also gives you tons & tons of practice problems you can work to help you study. Only down side is that you cant skip class & u have to actually study to make good grades
Mrs. Leonard was my favorite professor to take yet. She makes this class 100x's easier than the textbook makes it. If you go to class and do the practice problems and sapling quizzes, you will definitely make an A. You can't miss more than 3 classes though or your grade will drop a letter grade.
print the notes.
I took CHEM 123 online, and it was so easy. Her video lectures are short and easy to understand. I never opened the book once. If you watch the videos and do the homework, you will do well on the tests. I had a medical issue during finals week, and she happily rescheduled my final. She didn't change the final from the one the others took.
GREAT! She is an amazing teacher and her notes are so helpful. Just study the notes and do the Sapling and you will do great.
Dr. Leonard is very clear in what she wants us to know for the test and makes this class extremely bearable. I failed this class with a different professor a year before taking it again with Leonard & I honestly wish I could go back & schedule with her the first time around. It helps to do review questions in the book after taking notes. Made an A
I took her online for 123 and didn't find it very difficult. Most of the stuff I already knew, but it's the last two tests when you start getting into bio and organic that gets difficult. Still, the online videos were helpful. If I didn't understand something, I just go back and look at the video. Do the text book problems
GREAT professor - the class is a lot of information but when you walk in class, the first thing she tells you is that she will do anything to help you understand. Always able to meet with you during office hours, and willing to work around those times for whatever works with you. Class boring even though I thought chemistry would be. TAKE HER CLASS
by far, one of my favorite professors. I'm taking her again for my second online class because i love her so much. She explains things really thoroughly and is always willing to help out anyone who needs it. She has corny jokes and she's so cute. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!!
I love Andrea Leonard. I've taken her for CHEM107 and CHEM123 and both were some of the best classes I've ever taken. She is fun, she makes Lord of the Rings quotes, and she is pretty easy. I made A's in both. Lectures aren't bad and the tests are very straight-forward. Study a little and you'll be fine. I used the book for the extra practice.
Best teacher i have ever taken. Graduated high school with a C in chemistry, but made an A in Mrs. Leonard's class. Very clear, explains information well, and squeezes in corny jokes to lighten the mood in class. By far the best chemistry teacher out there. 10/10!
She is a great teacher and her class was not hard at all if you show up. She was there if you needed to ask any questions. I would definitely take her again.
Take this class!!!!!! She is so helpful & this class is easier than all the rest. She breaks it down like no other. Do the homework! It isn't for a grade but you must do it in order to pass, im telling you. Like I said TAKE THIS CLASS!
Professor Andrea was awesome!! She was very helpful and she gives clear details of what she wants. Since most of the class time is for the lab, she sometimes posts videos of her lessons from the online classes she teaches to help you out with the homework. I would definitely take her again.
Mrs. Leonard is my absolute favorite teacher at UL! She is extremely helpful and doesn't make you feel stupid when you ask questions in class. She's always cracking jokes (that are actually funny) and it helps keep all of the students engaged in the lectures. If you struggle with chemistry I highly suggest you take her!
SHE IS THE BEST!!! Awesome teacher and great labs! We made ice cream for one, so much fun! You will not regret taking her she is always making sure her students understand and pass!
I do not recommend anyone to take this class if they're not good at online classes! I didn't know I wasn't good until I got in the class and took my first test. She's a great teacher but there's no classroom interaction since its online. But I retook it in lecture and got an A so the material isn't hard to learn
TAKE HER! i took it online and was super skeptical, but it was the best choice I've ever made. she is always available to help you in her office hours, super nice, and her tests are very straight forward.
Seriously one of the EASIEST classes I have taken yet!!! She is so helpful and always available if you don't understand something from her lectures. I was scared to take chemistry online since I wasn't that great in it in high school, but she simplifies it so much! Such an amazing professor!!!
I took her online class and it was very easy if you remember some chemistry from high school. She also drops the lowest test score and is very understanding of emergencies.
Professor Leonard made chemistry fun and easy. She was always willing to help and truly cared about my grade. Definitely take her!
Professor Leonard is amazing. Even though I took her online she's still one of the best teachers I've her had. Her test are simple if you study and do the sample test. She is very helpful and nice if you need to meet with her one on one. I highly recommend taking her!!!!!!!
I never took a class online and I am so happy I did! She is down to earth, always accessible, patient and kind. Do exactly what she tells you to do. The tests are exactly what she teaches. No curve balls, very straight forward. The other profs will go over your head and confuse you. She could get a 4 year old to understand this!
The lectures are recorded with notes you fill in as you go. If you study, you will pass. You have to have the discipline to study as you go and not procrastinate. If you try to study it all right before the test you will not pass!
She was amazing to work with. Chem 123 online was very doable. The lectures were all online, with a packet to fill out as you go. I went to her office often for questions I had. She was always very helpful and ready to help out with whatever was going on. Do the sapling quizzes and follow the packet you fill out and you will pass.
If you need Chem 107. Take it during the summer with her. She has put a ton of work into the online section of this course and it shows. I wish the University would allow her to do an online 108 section.
Her online class is super organized and planned out. She gives you notes to print out for each chapter to go along with the prerecorded lectures. Make sure you do the sapling assignments because those points do matter! You just have be sure to study and know all the material and you can pass with an A. Its not difficult class just study the notes.
Awesome class to take online! Beware that it starts off easy and gradually gets harder, but if you stay on top of the online course work it's not bad at all. 10/10 recommend. Dr. Leonard is super nice and caring and made the online lectures entertaining.
Loved her!!!!
The amount of notes each week is unreasonable. Because of the amount of information given it is impossible to remember. The work load for a 100 level class is unrealistic. Would never take this class again. If you are a non chemistry major and need to take chem 102 do not take chem 123 in its place. You will be sorry.
This was online class so expected you have to go the extra mile to ensure you receive a good grade. She is very helpful and gives immediate feedback. If you go to office hours she will assist you with quizzes, homework, etc. There is no extra credit so do your best on each test.
The nicest teacher ever! This class was such an easy A once you get the hang of the notes. There isnt much to grade besides 4 tests and the online quizzes, but none of them were too hard.
I took this class online and the quizzes were pretty difficult and the tests were kind of hard but completely doable. Its best if you keep up with Ms. Leonards lectures and not fall behind. I made a B, but I wasnt studying as much as I shouldve been, with that being said its not hard to make an A if you put in the effort.
I wish that Dr. Leonard taught in a classroom because she is SO funny! I love her little lecture videos (because this was an online class). Her tests were fair and she graded fair. She gave us practice tests for every one including final. For an online teacher she is very accessible through office hours and the Remind App. I would 10/10 recommend!
Her class gets extremely hard after the second exam but she teaches extremely well! I would DEFINITELY take her online if you have the chance too its so much easier to just play her lectures if you dont understand a part.. but shes hilarious and also LOVES when you go see her at her office hours
posts notes on moodle for you to fill out as you listen to lectures. provides lots of practice problems for you to master the skills, and is always available if you need help! Only thing in person were tests
Best teacher I ever had. She is very sweet and funny. If you get the chance to take her (because her class fills up fast), DO IT!!!! You won't regret :)
I know it's already been said, but Professor Leonard is just awesome! She's definitely the best teacher you can get for chem 123. She explains things extremely well. Tests 1 and 2 are easy, but 3 is where it gets crazy. Go to her office hours if you have ANY questions. I honestly wish she taught every class at this school!
The class I took with her was chem 107, it was a hybrid class, you only went to class for tests and the finals. The tests did get harder as the semester progressed, but I always studied the night before and never made lower than a C and the lowest test grade is dropped. You can redo all the assignments before the end of the semester for full cred.
I took this class as a hybrid class and loved it. Her online video lectures really explained exactly what we needed to know, she even had study guides/notes that you fill out throughout the lecture. She also made quizlets for us when we had to memorize things. Shes amazing!!
I took her online class. The online lectures were so great. I'm a polisci major and got an A because she structured this so well. Def need to study. but manageable. I only saw her for the tests but I man she came across as the sweetest coolest woman ever.
Had a rough time with other chemistry professors, close to failing the classes. However, Mrs. Leonard is a fantastic teacher. I took her online and you definitely need to watch the lectures, but doing so should make the rest of the class fairly manageable. You may need to study, but nothing you can't do. Recommend her 110%.
Truly a great professor. Even though it was an online summer class, she managed to keep her lectures interesting. You do really have to put in the work to do good on the tests. If you truly study, you will do fine. She had 4 tests, simple quiz each week and a couple of forum type things to complete. Overall a great class!
Coming from a straight A student, this was a challenging class. I thought it would be an easy A, but the amount of information is overwhelming. She is a great teacher but the last 2 exams could have easily been a course on its own. You have quizzes after every module and exams are on proctoru so you can't use notes.
literally the best professor ever if you need to take chemistry and you feel like it could possibly be challenging for you i recommend her. She structures the class in a very organized way. She also posts extra credit assignments that help. Overall this is a great professor and she does a great job at teaching the subject.
Please take her class! Her lectures as structured so well and she's always willing to help. My favorite class I've taken at UL so far.
She is the best teacher that you could take for Chem123! Her lectures are very well put together and she explains everything so that it is easy to understand. She gives plenty of material for practice, lots of quizzes and extra activities to boost your grades. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!
Ms. Leonard is THE best professor to take for chem123. If you can take it with her online, I HIGHLY recommend- she is extremely organized, always willing to help, and super prompt! The class IS hard because the amount of content(after the 2nd exam), but she gives you lots of study materials(practice exams and worksheets) to help better prepare you.
OMG absolutely loved this class and Andrea. She is such an amazing teacher. Offers extra credit and bonus but you prob won't need it because the lectures are very good and in-depth. She does "self-tests" at the end of each lecture and they helped me so much (they aren't graded though they are just practice).
She is an awesome professor! She cares about her students even though this is an online course. Be prepared to put in the time each week to go over the lessons, they will help you. Her lectures are beneficial and she gives a good amount of practice. You can get a good grade if you put in the effort.
Andrea's CHEM123 class is tough but rewarding. The lectures are well-structured, and she provides plenty of practice materials. I found unstuck AI super helpful for exam prep alongside the class resources.
This class was my easiest the whole semester. The lectures were very informative and very easy to follow. Graded on weekly quizzes and discussion boards, but they are all easy and you have multiple tries on each question on the quizzes. Would definitely take her again.
Ms. Leonard is absolutely amazing! I highly recommend taking any class with her!
I though i was stong in chem until i took this. I dropped this class about a week ago and I can say this was a complete nightmare. Every test was overly complicated. All the lectures were lacking. PLEASE take this in person.
10/10 multiple bonus points options! The class do get harder after each test. Overall weekly discussions and quizzes easy points make sure you do them!
