Dr. Zurcher is pretty good for Orgo 1. She knows her stuff, she explains well, and she's nice and approachable. Questions she gives in class are easier than questions on her exams, but she tells you exactly which problems to do in the textbook to get more practice. Very organized and cares about learning. She's definitely a solid choice.

Knowledgeable, energetic, efficient, accessible, stays on top of her email, inspirational, patient, caring. Her flipped classroom is intense and challenging, but if you work hard on reading, she will not only get you to pass ORGO but also benefits you immensely in truly learning it and becoming well-prepared for pre-med down the road.

Dr. Zurcher is a great professor. She is new at UNC but she helps her students in every way she can and asks/praises feedback. She is passionate about chemistry and is happy to answer questions. Going to lecture is important to go through practice problems. Tests are fair, read the text, pay attention in lecture, study frequently don't cram!

She is incredibly kind and wants all of her students to succeed. She is super accessible outside of class and holds biweekly question and answer sessions, which is PRICELESS for organic. She knows her stuff and is willing to stay after review sessions to help. However, her tests are a LOT harder than what we do in lecture, so studying is a MUST.

Zurcher has a flipped classroom, and while she goes over some material in class, the videos are essential to gaining a better understanding of the content. Most of class it utilized for practice problems, which I find very beneficial as some of the problems are seen on the exam. Don't skip class. She is very nice and willing to help.

After learning almost all the material on your own, Zurcher does a lot of basic practice problems in class and teaches important concepts. People do not utilize the other resources on her sakai page including Crimmins practice tests and problems. Look at those to get a good sense of the questions on the exam and to help understand complex material

Dr. Zurcher is a great professor who is presents the material in a very clear manner. During lecture we do a lot of practice problems which are beneficial. Her tests are fair, in my opinion, and if you do the practice tests and understand the concepts you should do fine! She was willing to meet with me outside her office hours which was great.

Dr. Zurcher is a great professor for a really tough subject. She is very encouraging and positive. Her tests are difficult, but she is very responsive to feedback. When our test average was lower than Crimmins she gave us the opportunity to do test corrections and earn points back--not something most professors would do. Overall great professor.

Dr. Zurcher is new to teaching but honestly she was an amazing orgo professor. I think she really explained everything well and you can tell she cares for your learning. Her tests are fair and the reading is something to be expected. I would definitely recommend her. Super nice and helpful!

Dr. Zurcher is one of the best professors I've had at UNC. She does a great job of explaining concepts, she's very approachable, and she really cares about her students. Her tests are fair, and you will do well on them if you read the textbook, do practice problems, and use her systematic approach to solving problems. I highly recommend her!

It has been my experience that Dr. Zurcher teaching style is effective really only if you (the student) takes it upon yourself to consistently do the readings and complete the practice problems that she provides. She also does a good job of making the material relevant by providing real world application examples, which makes it easier to learn.

One of the best professors I've had at UNC. Dr. Zurcher is not only a fantastic teacher but she's also incredibly kind and passionate about her job. Although the material is difficult and she doesn't throw many softballs, she explains everything in a structured and effective manner. Show up to class, do the work, study hard, and you'll be fine.

Dr. Zurcher is a great professor. She is very consistent with her lectures and uploads many resources for students to study from before exams. Her tests are not easy and it is true that many of the problems we do in class are far easier than what she includes in the exams, but as long as you study and attend class regularly, you will be fine.

I like her. Explains concepts well. Accessible outside of class. Offers great feedback, plenty of extra resources. Tests are very hard but curves and offers extra credit. Assignments due before every lecture and most weekends but you only need 80% of them for full credit. Reading and videos aren't required but you'll definitely need them to pass.

Dr. Zurcher is a very compassionate teacher. This was her first semester at UNC and it started a little rough, but it improved throughout the year. This course is difficult, but I think Dr. Zurcher is a really good teacher. She provides a lot of outside practice problems and wants you to succeed

She really cares that her students learn and understand the material. Very accessible outside of class and very patient. Organic chemistry is a difficult course but if you put in the work and go to her office hours/Q&A sessions, it is very easy to pass and do well. All while actually understanding the material!

Dr. Zurcher was one of the best science teachers I've had. Her lectures are clear, concise, and well-structured. She's also a very cheerful, easy going person, and is always ready to help. Org. Chem is a difficult class, but she managed to make it very enjoyable. Her tests are harder than class material but doable if you stay on top of things.

Zurcher is new to UNC and she is great. Very clear, very accessible, and funny at times. Definitely a solid choice for orgo-- not as experienced as Crimmins, but she is a good professor.

Professor Zurcher was very clear with what knowledge was required and there were a lot of resources provided to ensure that you learned. One issue was that a lot of the material was not taught with the concepts behind them, so it required memorization. However due to her enthusiasm and clear teaching style, I would definitely recommend her.

I was skeptical of taking her class at first but am happy I did. She cares a lot about her students success and actually listens & acts on the feedback she receives which I feel many professors don't do. She offered extra credit and a slight curve. Orgo is not an easy class, but her enthusiasm during lecture and organization helps. Solid professor!

Dr. Zurcher was a fantastic professor for Chem 261! Her lectures were clear and easy to understand as long as you prepared before class (Mastering and review textbook OR videos). Her exams were challenging but fair. Nothing came out of left field. Everything was from somewhere in the notes or clicker questions. I'd highly recommend her.

Dr. Zurcher is a new orgo professor, but I think she is fantastic! You have to work really hard, I attend all Q and A sessions, and it has really helped me excel in the class. Dr. Z is always willing to answer questions, and you can tell she really loves teaching!

Dr. Zurcher is great! She really cares about her students and she wants us to do well (she calculates final grades 3 different ways to give us the highest grade possible) and she is very organized with all class content so it makes it a lot easier to study for exams. Do the homework, go to Q&A, and do practice problems and this class will be fine!

Zurcher's lectures are so clear. She's a caring professor and I highly recommend her! She also posts all her notes and is very approachable.

Dr. Zurcher is very solid choice for orgo. She's so enthusiastic for teaching and the material and extremely accessible outside class. Tests are very difficult but not many surprises. She tries to give as much partial credit as she can and gives old tests as practice exams. Would definitely recommend taking orgo with her

Dr. Zurcher is awesome! She is very clear with what she wants us to know and is very organized with lecture notes. She provides us with plenty of practice problems. Her exams are usually harder than what we see in class, but she gave us old exams for practice.

Great professor! Made time for students outside of class. Found her worksheets to be helpful to mastering material. Studying everyday is essential & going in asking for help as soon as you need it will help you to stay on track. Comein with an open mind, and be ready to study everyday which will make your studying in the end easier. You can do it!

She is a great professor! super organized which makes it easy to study for exams, provides lots of practice problems, and her exams are extremely fair.

She is a good teacher ! She organized the lectures very well. If you pay attention to her classes and go to the office hour often you can get a good grade. Besides, she will give many extra credit opportunities.

Zurcher was an amazing professor for CHEM 261. She cares so much about her students and the way she explained things made a lot of sense to me and all of my peers in class. I was getting really discouraged about my science track at Carolina until I took her class. She also gives worksheets in class sometimes which are very helpful.

She is a great choice for CHEM 261. Very organized and informative lectures and practice tests for midterms. You definitely need to work hard for this class though.

Dr. Zurcher is your best choice for Orgo 1, hands down. I think she had a rough time early on as a new professor, but during my semester it seemed like she really had hit her stride. The class is well organized, well contextualized, and Danielle is a sweetheart to boot. She is very open to suggestions. Come prepared and work hard above all.

Dr. Zurcher was a great teacher for Chem 261. The class is not easy, but she makes each class's goals clear and posts all of her lecture problems at the end for final exam review.

������

Dr. Zurcher is amazing. Want to get an A in the class? Go to class, do the practice problems from the textbook (mastering is OK for basics), and REVIEW THE SLIDES!! Her slides are amazing and the notes she makes on them are ALL important. The little exceptions are where chem profs get you on exams, if you know them, you can't be fooled :)

Dr. Zurcher is one of the best chem professors at UNC. Her slides are easy to understand and she makes herself available to students for help at all times. She hands out many worksheets for practice problems and is very very organized. I do have to say that her exams were harder than the practice exams and she didn't curve the class very much.

Dr. Zurcher is one of the best chem professors I've had at UNC. Her slides are clear and informative. Study the lecture notes/problems and the practice tests and you'll be fine.

Dr. Zurcher is one of the best profs I've had. Lectures are very engaging and helpful. Exam are difficult but fair. She and the 262 team dealt with the change to remote teaching due to coronavirus gracefully and made sure to give student the necessary resources to succeed. She does sometimes goes too fast in lectures and it can be hard to keep up.

Dr. Zurcher is a great professor. She explains complex topics in a way that's easy to understand. You just need to know what's presented on the slides, do the worksheets she sends out, and memorize the mechanisms, and you should be fine!

Truly does her job, which is more than you can say about other chem profs. Awesome at teaching complex topics and gives more than enough practice worksheets. I will say, I think her exams are a bit excessive and she wasn't very accommodating during this past online semester. Overall, she has high expectations but teaches you what you need to know.

I would say pre online classes, Zurcher did an excellent job explaining the material and she really cares about her students. Her style is typical of other UNC Chem classes, so be ready for a flipped classroom. I wish the department made more accommodations for students after transitioning to online learning, however.

I have taken many chem classes from various profs and Dr. Zurcher is easily the best. She explains concepts very clearly and in a way that is easy to understand (My favorite chem professor at UNC for sure). Tests & quizzes are fairly written. The homework is very helpful and not at all busy work. She has made me love chemistry. TAKE HER CLASS!!

Orgo is hard regardless, but Zurcher explains everything very well. She assigns practice problems that are relevant to what you'll see on exams and her lectures are also extremely helpful. Content is taught pretty fast, so this class does require a lot of time, but Zurcher will make sure everything she assigns is helpful for exams.

I think Professor Zurcher is the best professor anyone could ever hope for from a chem professor. The exams/quizzes were challenging but doable, and you always knew what to expect from her. Yes, you had to put in a lot of effort but that's a given in any Chemistry class. She has very forgiving grading policies as well.

Dr. Zurcher is the best chem professor I've had at UNC. Orgo is a hard class but she does a very good job at explaining the material. Tests and quizzes are difficult but fair, honestly, I don't feel as though she tries to make the tests impossible like other chem professors. She drops a quiz and allows a cheat sheet for exams and quizzes.

Dr. Zurcher is one of my favorite professors at UNC! She's great at explaining difficult concepts and she always made sure that her students were on track. This class is challenging, but she's very understanding and quizzes/exams were generally fair. She has a passion for teaching and, because of her, I love orgo now! Definitely take 261 with her!!

I was scared to take orgo but Zurcher is a really nice woman and super good teacher! She uploaded her recordings, provided LOTS of extra practice if you wanted it, and made sure people were following along. Also, for a STEM class 40% of the grade wasn't exams which is good! The exams are hard, but Zurcher was a good prof. Taking 262 with her SS 2!

Dr. Zurcher is hands down the best professor I've had from the chem department. Her lectures are great for practice questions and she really knows how to explain concepts well. You have to put a lot of work to get an A, but orgo is hard no matter who teaches it. She is also the only professor in the chem department who I've seen give extra credit

Dr. Z was amazing. I retook this after taking it with Beaver/Waters (piss poor)and the difference in lecture quality was outstanding. We didn't use Mastering- she gave old test problems for homework which was more helpful than MC. She actually lectures and answers questions. Problem sessions were helpful too. Her tests and quizzes were VERY fair.

CHEM 101 is hard no matter who you take it with, but Dr. Zurcher made the class more manageable. Her lectures were easy to understand and I felt like I walked out of each class learning something. The course is the same work load no matter what teacher you have, but Dr. Zurcher's teaching got me through this class.

Chemistry is hard at UNC but Dr. Zurcher made the class fun. She is so passionate about chemistry and you can see that in the way she teaches. If you love chemistry, you will love her. Although chemistry is not my favorite subject, she made me want to major in chemistry because of how excited she is about the subject! Would definitely recommend!

The chem department is terrible and orgo is rough. However, Zurcher does the best she can with how the department is set up and is the best chem prof I've had. She does a good job keeping the exam averages around a 70 (which is what the chem department demands), and unlike other profs, will give partial credit.

Dr. Z was really great this semester. I missed some classes due to outside circumstances, and I feel like my grade reflects that. She was really understanding and helpful, and her lectures were engaging. To be honest, I wish we could rate the department instead because Chemistry at UNC is just ridiculous. Chem 101 shouldn't be this hard anywhere.

Definitely recommend her for Chem 101! I wouldn't say chem is the easiest, but Dr. Zurcher does a great job explaining concepts and always gave us enough time to work through class problems. She also made sure to emphasize common pitfalls to help us avoid these mistakes. I didn't need to really touch the textbook at all this semester!

Chemistry 101 is a difficult class no matter who you take it with, but Dr. Zurcher is a solid choice for professors. She tries to explain concepts and questions in detail and is available for answering questions right after class and in her meeting time. Her group problem solving session is also very helpful.

I think Prof. Zurcher is definitely the best option for Chem 101! Her lectures are really clear, and she gives us a lot of sample exam questions in her presentations. She does her best to help out all of her students despite huge lecture classes, she emails back pretty quick and does 6-minute individual help sessions if you have any questions!

Professor Zurcher is very good at teaching and is very knowledgable. She explains topics thoroughly and is open to answer any questions in class. Class attendance is a requirement since there are a certain amount of clicker points needed for 100% participation. I recommend sitting on the outside seats in her lecture since TA's answer questions.

I had Dr. Z for CHEM261 and CHEM262 and taking it with her was the best decision I've ever made. UNC chemistry can be nightmarish but Dr. Z is hands-down the best chem professor I've ever had. She seems to really care about students, explains things in a way I can understand, and has very useful problem-solving sessions.

I had her for Orgo 1 & 2 and I'm unbelievably grateful that I did. She has been my favorite UNC Chem professor. She's great at concisely explaining the content and organizing her course. She's fair on her exams and generous with partial credit. Loved her!! 1000% would take again!

Dr. Zurcher is the most difficult professor I've had at UNC as a junior in Bio and Chem, but she is preparing her students for the academia in medical school and for those pursuing PhDs and for that I am very thankful. She is honest with the students and shares her weaknesses when she took chemistry and due to this, she can make hard yet fair exams

I don't think the flaw in this class was Dr. Zurcher, but instead the horrible class structure. She explained things fairly well, but if you miss class, you're pretty much on your own. I understood concepts a lot better than my test scores reflected, but it's still doable if you have to take it.

Chem at chapel hill is what it is. You have to know going into it that it's not going to be easy. I liked Prof. Zurcher but I was just 1/300 students. Grade primarily comes from 2 midterms and a final, but attendance to class and recitations as well as warmups and weekly homework assignments also weigh in. Stay on top of concepts. Ask questions.

My problems were with the setup of CHEM101, not with Zurcher. She teaches the material well and makes the lectures interesting, but if you missed a class or struggled with a concept, you are at a major disadvantage. Attendance is counted with the iclickers for participation, and tests are challenging but mostly fair. Go to problem-solving sessions.

Professor Zurcher is by far the best professor in the chemistry department at UNC! Though the class is still very difficult, Professor Zurcher has never once made me feel inadequate for not knowing something. She is kind and teaches the material very well. She knows that the course is difficult, but is ready to help you succeed.

I really liked Dr. Zurcher's style of lecture - definitely a lot more helpful than some of the other 101 or 102 teachers.

This class takes so much time and brain power but Dr. Zurcher makes it the least miserable possible. I can ask dumb questions and she will help. She realizes that the class is hard and that students don't have every waking moment to study for her class alone. She's approachable and does a great job explaining things to prepare us for the test.

Organic chem is already hard but Zurcher understands that its hard. During class, she tries to help talk through problems and the topic is literally so hard but she makes it bearable. Saying that, I dont think she has a say in the exams, I think they're fair but difficult so definitely have to do a lot of outside studying. office hours are helpful

Orgo is hard regardless of who you take it with but I definitely did waaaay better than I thought I would because she explains the material very well. I usually went to her office hours and problem solve sessions and she takes the time to properly explain the material, no matter how dumb my questions were. I wish she taught orgo 2 next semester.

I only wanted to take Orgo 1 with Zurcher. She is the best option for lecturers. Orgo is a very difficult subject and requires a lot of work so take it during an easier semester. Same exams as Beaver, the averages are Cs and Ds.

Yes, organic chemistry is hard but Dr. Zurcher really sets you up for success. She starts building a good base early in the course and provides so many practice resources to become familiar with content. Her office hours and problem solving sessions also cleared up many questions from lecture.

I have both taken this course from Dr. Zurcher and been a peer mentor. Seeing her teach from both sides has showed me that she really cares about her students and their learning. The material covered in the course is difficult and requires a lot of work to keep up with, but she teaches it in about as straightforward of a way as anyone could!

Throughout lecture, you can tell she is caring! Explains details topic nicely and gives foundation that you can apply for other orgo questions. However, make sure to READ the textbook! And practice! Can't stress the textbook enough. Textbook let's you go into class knowing what to do, and Zurcher builds on it.

Zurcher is a great teacher who explains things very well. Orgo is a hard class you need to put in work in order to succeed. The test were pretty fair for the most part, but it is clear that they are trying to trick you on some of the questions. Make sure you understand the material. You have all you need to succeed.

This class is difficult, as are all chem classes at UNC. To pass, you need to put in a lot of work. It is not Dr. Zurcher's fault the orgo curriculum is grueling. She is kind, caring, and willing to explain everything to you outside of class. She will remember your name if you ask her questions and wants you to succeed if you put in the effort.

Do not skip the textbook reading. They really pile it on but don't skip if you can, or else you'll get a lot less out of lectures. She gives you everything you need for exams; the material on tests always stayed within lesson objectives, they just put in a lot of tricky questions. Go to her office hours, she's great at answering questions!

She does a great job thoroughly explaining topics even as the pace of the class picks up toward the end of the semester. The exams are tough, but workbook problems are super helpful to prepare. You can tell Dr. Zurcher cares about her students; in office hours she's good at guiding you to the right answer so you understand processes yourself.

Dr. Zurcher was amazing! You could tell that she really cared about getting you to understand the material.

Orgo is hard but it's not impossible. Do not miss class because Dr. Zurcher goes through a lot of dense material during lectures and it's crucial to succeeding. Use the workbook!! It was so helpful in my opinion and it provides similar practice to exam-style questions. Do not fall behind because things will pile up. Orgo demands a lot of time

Dr. Zurcher really cares about her students and is great at teaching. Orgo is a tough class, but Dr. Zurcher made the material manageable for sure. It's a lot of work, but if you go to class and practice outside of class, you'll be alright. Definitely recommend this class.

One of my favorite professors at Carolina so far. Very caring about her students and their grades.

The best orgo chem prof in UNC. Cares about her students, very easy-going and feel comfortable of providing support. The course design is vague and ambiguous, so your grade will largely depend on your TA, but Dr. Zurcher is nice. The office hour is helpful, don't miss it.

Honestly, orgo is a very hard class, regardless of who teaches it. I think Zurcher is one of the best professors in terms of explaining concepts from ground up. Her GPSS is SUPER helpful and she is very patient and friendly. Attendance is MANDATORY since you get daily points and its such a hard class. Workbook problems are the biggest help.

Orgo with Professor Zurcher is tough, but she's an effective teacher. The workbook problems are really helpful, and using Unstuckstudy alongside the free textbook can make studying more efficient. Attendance is mandatory, so engage in class to get the most out of it.

Dr. Zurcher is a kind woman both inside & outside of lecture. She's accommodating to students who are experiencing difficulties. However, her tests are difficult & there are questions on there that will take you aback. She also gives weekly quizzes in lecture so attend. she is good at explaining concepts, but moves through the material quickly.

*Screams in agony* Organic chem is tough but Dr. Zurcher is probably the best professor for it at UNC. Her lectures are great but the exams are so incredibly difficult. You really have to be prepared to dedicate 3+ hours a week just to doing extra practice problems (beyond the ones in the homework) if you want to succeed. *Begins sobbing*

CHEM 262 is a hard course, but Professor Zurcher does an amazing job at making it comprehensible. She is caring to students and makes it clear that she is proud of our efforts! I think her test questions are reasonable - going through the slides helps you to focus on content that she finds important and practicing those will set you up for success!

Dr. Zurcher is great. She is a straightforward teacher, she does not waste any time, in a good way, you feel like going to class is productive. Furthermore you WILL NOT SUCCEED if you skip classes. Everything builds off of the last lecture. Don't skip

Obviously orgo is one of the hardest classes at UNC so you pretty much get what you expect with this class. Dr. Zurcher did an amazing job of explaining really complicated topics and preparing you for the way material builds upon itself in this class. Lots of practice problems available and lots of review sessions (which are helpful!)

She is a good lecturer and explains the concepts pretty clearly, this coming from a chem major who has had way worse in this department. She is a tough grader tho and I felt like she didn't give much partial credit on the exams. There's definitely a curve for the End of Week assignments, I failed most of them and got a 100 for them at the end.

Dr Zurcher was down to earth and definitely cared about every student's success. She made an awful class somewhat bearable. If you are taking chemistry and Zurcher is teaching, please take her. Definitely the best chem professor I have had at UNC.

Dr. Zurcher was passionate about the content she taught and did a good job lecturing the new content. No matter what, orgo is a hard class and you need to dedicate the time outside of class doing the readings, extra practice, and studying for exams. Grades are very test heavy but you have a lot of resources (and ULA team) to help you too.

She's an awesome professor who is very accessible outside of class. Take orgo with her if you get a chance and ask questions!

Great professor. Attend LA sessions or GPSS if you have any confusion. Exams are intense, and I figured out how to do good on them too late. Time yourself doing the workbook exam to replicate the actual one. Redo the end of week problems too. Attend class for the required participation and read the textbook everyday for easy exit ticket points.

She tells you exactly what to do to succeed - do all those things and you will. Her tests were fair, and I felt that they did not deviate from what we were taught. Orgo is a hard class, but she made it bearable. I could see that she really cared about us as students. She genuinely wants you to succeed.

Probably one of tbe best people who can explain orgo. The practice problems from la sessions were the most representative of exams and the in class slides are very helpful.

Explained concepts well (99% of the time). Exams were extremely fair imo. Felt like the final was harder than the midterms but the grade ended up better than expected. Definitely attend lectures and GPSS (professor led sessions), and do practice. Orgo can be tough but she does not try to make it harder.

I only had Dr. Zurcher for half the semester while she stood in for Dr. Eskew but her lectures were incredible. Her explanations were extremely clear and gave me confidence on exam-level questions. She is very energetic and it is clear that she cares deeply about our success.

prof zurcher is great. her lectures are straight-forward and organized; she gets right to the point, which made the clarity of the content 100x better. she's my favorite STEM professor at UNC thus far simply because of her teaching. final grades in this class rely heavily on midterms, but zurcher prepares students for exams well. 10/10 recommend!!

101 is extremely hard but its standardized in the chemistry department so it has little to do with Zurcher herself. she was a great teacher nevertheless. just a hard ass class.

I absolutely loved Zurcher for this class! I was really nervous because chem has a reputation, but she was a really engaging teacher, and she explained things in a way that really made sense to me! I love her. That said, I think she is pretty inaccessible outside of class (because chem is a teaching team, not a single teacher responding to you) .

I returned to zurcher after dealing with whatever the hell orgo 2 was with beaver, and i realized she is lowkey the goat. He sucks. Shes great. Preciate u mama

Chem101 is rough and you definitely need to put in a good amount of work outside of class, but Zurcher was a great lecturer and super kind. Explained concepts clearly and wants you to succeed.

Zurcher is engaging, usually gets through the slides, and explains complex concepts in simple terms. She drops important hints for exams during lecture.

Because if the standardized and group taught structure of CHEM 101, there's only so much the professor can do. All exams and content is the same for each section. But regardless Dr. Zurcher's lectures were engaging, and she consistently showed that she cares about her students and their learning and success.

Chem 101 is a difficult weed out class, but Zurcher is definitely the best professor to take it with. She knows her stuff, is nice, and is a good lecturer. I also appreciated how much in-class practice we got for the concepts. I wish she could teach 102 next semester lol

Chem 101 is standardized, but she was a great professor! Very clear lectures and would actually come talk to her students.

Professor Zurcher is a great lecturer. Overall, the class is really difficult, but not unique to Zurcher because chem is just notoriously hard at UNC. Homework isn't anything crazy but make sure to study for those midterms.

My problem is with the Chemistry Department as a whole, and since things are standardized here, there isn't anything bad that I could pinpoint on her specifically. Zurcher is incredibly friendly and will answer questions in class. This class requires a lot of effort outside of class. I regret not using a lot of the resources that were available.

I love Dr. Zurcher! She is genuinely so sweet, caring, and just wants to see her students succeed. She does have high expectations, but she makes her expectations clear and holds every student to the same standard. Chem 101 is a difficult class, but she was great at explaining concepts and providing resources! She is my favorite professor so far :)

although unc chem is hard by default as its all standardized, zurcher is definitely one of the best profs. her lectures are very helpful, and she's frequently present at after-school review things.

UNC chemistry is difficult as a whole, but I always really enjoyed Dr. Zurcher's lectures. She is a very caring a sweet woman with a clear passion for chemistry, and she tries her best to make the subject approachable. While you do have to buy the textbook to access the homework, most test questions are pulled from the daily slides.

I thought Professor Zurcher was awesome for 101. She was great at explaining concepts and you can tell she is passionate about the subject and her students.

Professor Zurcher was awesome and made the material clear and easy to understand. Unfortunately, Chem 101 at Carolina is a weed out class so there was a LOT of material thrown at you over the course of the semester. The class was difficult, and the tests were 75% of our grade, but that's the fault of the chemsitry department, not professor Zurcher.

Professor Zurcher's lectures are engaging and easy to understand, reading textbook helps a little but paying attention in class and going over the slides are more important. The course is designed to be very test heavy, but the chem department provides a lot of practice materials. The chem department requires an iClicker.

Wish I had her for the entire semester, super engaging and clear lecturer and the one exam she wrote was extremely fair.
