This teacher is by far the worst communicator that I have ever seen/heard, she is helpful yes, I can appreciate that...but I did tell her that I was struggling with the material, even went to math learning center for help...the thing is, if you LIKE to brown-nose she's your gal, one good thing: she doesn't say, "what" all the time!!

Most disorganized professor I've ever had. Expects all communication to go through course website but doesn't answer posted posted Qs & blames website problems for not posting assignments or grades in a timely manner. Doesn't actually teach in lectures. I think she gave up on teaching anything halfway through the course. Avoid if at all possible.

Very nice and very bright professor, sadly she's completely disorganized and relies on her website to do the instructing. She ALWAYS had computer or internet problems, her website was a nightmare, resources were always unavailable or impossible to find. Trying to get assignments done literally gave me hives for the first time in my life

the worst. disorganized, disrespectful, obviously over it. we didn't get our first exam back until 2 days before the drop date. lectures are an after-thought. she barely puts any effort into this class. unwilling to answer questions or admit mistakes. consistently frustrating experience. if you take this class, get ready to teach yourself.

the worst, most disorganized teacher ever I ever met. She doesn't care whether you understand the things being taught or not. The labs are very confusing and unclear, while the reports are very hard, time consuming and demanding. If you take this class, be prepared to learn everything by yourself.

She will mark you down for every minor mistake, and does not give partial credit for answers. She is disorganized and also berates the class and treats us as if we are all children. Her labs are extremely vague and time consuming. She blamed us for overhalf the class completely missing a question in the lab because it was hidden inside a paragraph.

she is very complicated & she gives a lot of unclear instruction. Then I bought the text book for more than hundred dollars, but she has never used it, instead only using her website, which isn't effective at all. Very complicated lab. questions. I don't even study anything from her, I just used my high school knowledge for this class!

Never ever recommend this physics class with her. Horrible!

Worst teacher I've ever had. Unorganized, unhelpful. She's so bad she's the first teacher I've wanted to write a review about.

I would consider her more of a class "proctor" than a "teacher". Her lectures have no structure. I personally gained nothing from them. Most important for you to know is that she is generally bad at clarifying concepts and often condescending. Questions are often responded with "you should know this". Her lack of character is what bothered me most.

The worst teacher I have ever had. Does not clarify anything, when you ask questions, general response is "I don't have time to repeat things that are in the book". lectures are unorganized, and she will go into a tangent for an hour about a scatter chart but not teach you how to use the kinematic equations.

literally the worst teacher I have ever had, I am an A student that works hard, she treated me like a slow annoying child and spent most of her time chastising the class.

A picky person, not an easy-going person. Too much homework and labs. Hard to understand what she was teaching

Took the intro physics hybrid class and the work load was outrageous. Each week there's a quiz, a pre lab quiz, a lab report due, mastering physics homework, activity guides (most weeks), attendance tasks and no time in class to do any of this. She is condescending when you need help with a problem, and would rather send you to the tutoring center.

i got my first test 100% but second test for 73% because she took off 10 points for i had extra informations in a question, witch is all points in that question. stupid. i could had a 4.0 if that 10 points were not taken off.

I have never been compelled to write a review on one of my teachers yet, but I feel the need to warn prospective students to AVOID THIS INSTRUCTOR at all costs. She is very unhelpful, and condesending when you ask for help, and the amount of work you have to do outside of class is ridiculous. I spent 6+ hours on an assignment she made worth 10 pts.

She's the worst teacher in my life. I can't believe that I have picked her class. I wish I had a time-machine to go back to fix this stupid mistake.

Juvenile. Pity party for her every day. Spent most of lecture on unrelated anecdotes. Didn't post slides for course. Confusing grading criteria for labs. Weekly group assignmentsbusy work. Impossible to know what the tests would cover. Classmate commuted an hour to another college to avoid taking her class for a subsequent quarter.

The college should be ashamed to allow Davene Eyres to continue "teaching" there. If you care about learning the subject matter at all, do NOT take her class. She is rude and disrespectful to students and cares more about finding ways to deduct points from your grade than teach you any physics. If you have the option to take it anywhere else, do.

worst teacher I've ever had. Wish I had read reviews before I took her class. Will never take another class from her again. so much busywork it was hard to find time to study. Worst part is she seems to be trying to make her students fail. She is in the wrong profession.

disappointing. got snapped at when i asked questions and was directed to the tutoring center.

Thank goodness I made it through that quarter! Pick a different teacher if you have a choice. I can't believe how many assignments there were every week. Insane workload and unhelpful teacher.

Worst class I've ever had....

Very difficult. Students afraid to ask questions. Grading is unfair and the teacher's attitude is very unwelcoming. aka "She-who-must-not-be-named"

As another reviewer stated, the college should be ashamed that they let this continue. She is the most notorious "teacher" on campus. Students are doing anything they can, including attending another school, in order to avoid her. Rambling, unorganized, uninspired, lacking the skills for the job. I love physics. It shouldn't be this way.

Really wish I had taken my intro physics course at another school. Davene made a difficult subject impossible (in my opinion). After reading these reviews, I'm not sure why NSC isn't auditing her class. For a school that's "known" for STEM courses, they should rethink their intro physics prof. She's absolutely miserable.

THE WORST TEACHER YOU WILL EVER HAVE. If you're a good student who aims for a high grade, get ready to be disappointed because Davenne is merciless. Perfection isn't even perfect enough. Endless amounts of work, that are graded on an impossible scale. GET READY TO THROW YOUR DREAMS OF HIGHER EDUCATION AWAY. RUN. RUN FOR YOUR LIVES.

My life was so beautiful before this class.

My life was good.... until this class. The workload is just unbelievable for a intro class.

Worst teacher I have ever had. She was condescending and spent a lot of class teaching things that wouldn't help us in tests/quizzes and yelling at the class for not understanding what she was teaching. Will not take a course from her again.

This professor will spend half of each period berating the room at large about their study habits, the rest is a rushed/scattered lecture. You will not learn in class. Here is how to succeed: -If possible, DO NOT buy the book, only the access code. -Google the answers for online HW. It's far beyond what's covered in class. -Use Khan Academy.

Eyres disappeared after the final test. she posted the grades the next day and did not let us see our paper. she sometimes can be very mean .I wish she can be more respectful towards students, I would then give her a better rate .

I did not enjoy this class. If possible, take this class with friends or align yourself with a lab group right away that you can work with. Prof Eyres always seemed disgruntled and irritated with me when I asked questions. I was always nervous to approach her because she snaps so much at the students!

Absolutely avoid at all costs. Constantly belittles the class, and acts as if she has a power complex. I had a extremely hard time learning in this class, the workload was extreme for an intro class and really left me not enjoying physics. Take this class if you can learn very proficiently straight out of a book, because that is what we had to do.

This was the hardest class I've ever taken. This class plummeted my GPA for the quarter and I am forced to retake this class (unfortunately with her) to save my GPA. She is rude to students, grades like she wants the class to fail, and doesn't care if they get the material or not. BEWARE OF HER TESTS! The class average was 60/100 on final.

Labwork grading was unclear and nit-picky. Tests were nothing like other coursework. She was impatient, underprepared and condescending. Would definitely not recommend.

On the second day of class she blew a gasket because nobody knew where she wanted the lab report turned in, screaming to the class that she "was not in the mood" to tolerate this behavior. She spent most of her lecture time berating the 8am class for not responding to her questions. Lab reports are frustratingly vague, but brutally graded.

Very disrespectful and condescending. Does not care about helping her students. If its not done her way it does not matter to her and youll receive 0!!! If anyones assignment is even remotely similar to your you will both receive 0 without any explanation. Beware and do not take her class.

She's always screaming for no apparent reason. She doesn't know how to teach, and spent half the time screaming at people to answer questions that we were confused about, or giving history lessons about the metric system. Nothing in this class is easy, and very little help is given by the instructor, She's nice as but poor as an instructor.

Genuinely one of the worst teachers I've ever had. All labs are super unclear, she is very rude and condescending. She is poor lecturer but once referred to herself as "a fantastic lecturer". She views all learning as the students' responsibility (not her responsibility to teach well) and isn't interested in creating a learning environment.

Very condescending and hard to listen to. Her exams are very difficult and her labs/assignments are extremely time consuming. The one saving grace is that she does give out a lot of extra credit.

Smartest students in the class all dropped it within three weeks(very good strategy). Dr D means well but is stuck in her ways. Massive workload, very inconsiderate of full time student schedule, or those of us who have a job. Tests are all very nuanced, problems graded fiercely. Avoid this teacher, her pedagogy is flawed. Out of touch.

If you plan on taking physics 114 DO NOT take it with Ms Eyres at North Seattle College. She does not teach very well and is an EXTREMELY tough grader who shows no remorse. She is indeed a very intelligent professor, however she lacks compassion and expects you to teach yourself the information. Again, I would HIGHLY recommend taking elsewhere.

INTRO CLASS? LMAO. YOU WILL GET YELLED AT and more for not being some boarding school PHYSICS GENIUS. She is so disconnected from reality and the ability to connect information to humans. This is the worst class and teacher I have had in my life, if you like abuse this class is perfect for you.

Rough drafts are not rough drafts in this class. Things like your rough draft graphs have to be just as polished as the final draft. Did you pass high school physics? You can pass this class. Be prepared to be talked to like a child. Like many teachers, she does not respect your time and assigns work like you only attend her class.

Davene is not on student's sides. She is inflexible and does not accomodate students. She thinks that adding extra credit in her classes is how she gets around being a fair professor, but thats a pathetic approach. As a result, student's grades will suffer. She makes errors in entering canvas scores, which she won't correct unless you remind her.

Only take this class if you are willing to spend 20+ hours a week on physics work. -weekly labs (5-18 hours, seriously) -weekly hw (15-25 hours) -weekly prelecture assignments (1 hr) Don't miss class, she takes attendance halfway through. Since work is assigned from the 1st day of class, she gives NO leniency for late work. Classes are boring

Absolutely awful. She is the most uncompromising, uncaring, unkind teacher I've ever had. She is completely out of touch with reality and has no idea the amount of time the work she assigns takes. She expects you to make this class your number one priority and drop everything else going on in your life. She is unwilling to listen to students.

The worst professor I've ever had. Doesn't care about students at ALL, expects you to dedicate your life to her class and spend 15+ hours on a single lab report. On top of the hours of ridiculous homework and lectures. Takes pleasure in being nit-picky when grading. Gets annoyed when students express worries. Horrible professor, horrible person.

Everyone in the class is extremely frustrated with her bizarre grading, the insanely unrealistic time requirement she demands, and her unwillingness to listen to her students. She is the absolute worst teacher I've ever had, and is extremely cold, unfriendly, and uncompromising. A complete stick in the mud. Does not care about students at ALL.

Absolutely awful. thinks WAY too highly of herself and her class. Unrealistic grading expectations. Extremely unrealistic expectations of the time we have to give to this class. Expects us to be ready to sacrifice everything else going on in our life for this course. Very picky. Horrible explanations. Unfriendly and cold persona.

This professor makes midterms and final exams very hard and then grades them strictly. On the final exam the average for the class was a 49 percent and that is consistent with all the assignments she graded herself. She does not curve grades either. I got above average on most all assignment and my GPA is below average.

I am a senior and have never in my entire education had a professor assign such an unrealistic amount of work, which I knew based on reviews but she was my only option. Refuses to accept that you do NOT need 20 hours of Physics a week (and I mean that literally) to understand the darn subject. Makes NO exceptions for late assignments, even sick.

I wish North had a better physics 114 instructor. I was extremely excited when I signed up for her class, and was traumatized by the time I withdrew. Gives an unreasonable amount of work. Labs are only difficult because of the poorly written instructions. My only regret was I didn't drop sooner. If you have the option, take the class elsewhere.

The worst teacher I have ever had. I got halfway through the quarter and decided it was best for my mental health to drop the class. This was an intro-level course and yet it felt the exact opposite. If you are looking for a science class, I would highly suggest you choose another class.

Avoid her at all costs. Phys114 was an intro class taught like an upper level university class. Extremely unaccommodating during a personally very difficult time in my life, average midterm grades were 40-60% (and no curve). Thinks way too highly of herself (thinks she's too good for cc). Worked my butt off for a B- (barely). Seriously, >>avoid
