Sister Lemon is AMAZING I loved her chem class. She truely cares about her students and is there for you and hour success! a true gem! make sure to do the homework and you'll be fine!
Sister Lemon has the best criteria for chemistry over the other chem classes you could take. hw is optional but it's how you learn and practice the materials so I recommend doing it. She goes over lecture quickly since there is so much to learn but she posts her slides online. You do fun reactions in class and she loves what she does! I recommend
Sister Lemon was a really great professor. She's humorous and gives thorough instruction with each lecture. It's pretty crucial that you attend class, otherwise it's hard to figure out things on our own. I have personally enjoyed being in her class and would highly recommend her to anyone taking this course.
Sister Lemon is a fun teacher. She cares about you and your success. If you do all the optional homework and go to class you will do good in her class.
Do yourself a favor and register for her right now. Sister Lemon's only open lecture was at 7:45 AM, but I was told by multiple people to take her for Chem 101. It was so worth it sacrifice my precious sleep to take this class. Amazing and caring teacher, clear on what you need to do to succeed, very organized on ilearn, DO THE HOMEWORK.
Show up to class, homework isn't graded, but don't not do it. she gives an answer key for it all to help with the work shown so you don't get too lost. exams can be every tricky if you rush it. put in the time and go to drop in labs and you should get an A i honestly didn't put as much as id like to into it do to work, but she is solid!
DO HOMEWORK
If you have to take CHEM101, take her class! She doesn't check attendance. For your grade, you only need to take quizzes and exams.
I love Sister Lemon. She loves chemistry and is really good at teaching it. Sister lemon is very fun and makes class super exciting. If you took chemistry in High School this class isn't too bad. But do your HW it will help you on all of the tests.
She made learning fun for me!
Do the homework and go to class and you will be fine.
Great personality, very happy, awesome explainer and makes chemistry fun.
I loved taking Chemistry from Sister Lemon. She is a very engaging professor and really seeks to help you understand the material. You must do the homework! Awesome teacher.
Sister lemon is the most caring professor I have ever taken a class from and she is incredibly passionate about chemistry. You can always turn to her for help and she provides you with every resource you need in class to succeed. I highly recommend taking chem from her.
Sister Lemon is a great teacher. She makes chemistry enjoyable! Do ALL the homework though!! It will save your grade!
She is good at teaching this material, it is a very fast moving class though so come prepared and pay attention! Do the homework! And go to tutoring to really solidify everything! She tends to continue to teach new material up until the exam opens that will be on that exams which is really frustrating. Other than that she is fun and passionate.
Sister Lemon is a really great teacher and she knows her stuff but she goes through the material very quickly and expects you to understand. She gives a lot of homework but it is optional to complete it, she does not take a grade for it. The only grades in her classes are tests and quizzes.
I am glad that I was in Sister Lemon's class. She is a good teacher, but be ready to keep track of all the exceptions. She will teach a concept really clearly and then talk about the one exception to the rule for a few minutes and sure enough that one exception will be on the test. Doing the hw isn't necessary as long as you go all the lectures.
She did an awesome job at clearly and simple teaching the material. She would answer all questions during and after class if you didn't quite understand something. She works out the homework for you so you can see how to complete assignments. Taking notes in class and referring to the homework that she works out for you often will give you an A.
A lot of students love Sister Lemon just because of her personality. But the problem I personally had with her is the way she always taught in absolutes and then broke it. Also that she is more focused on getting through her slides than helping the students understand. Be careful about asking questions cause you might feel dumb after her response.
Sister Lemon was great! I loved being able to take a tougher course from her. She made the material a lot easier to understand in a fun way! I was very scared of chemistry before, but because of her, she eased my fear! Definitely take her, you will not regret it! Just make sure to put in the work to get the grade you want.
Sister Lemon is an amazing teacher, she explains everything clearly and is open to questions. Sometimes the class can seem rushed so pay attention.
Sister Lemon was amazing. Her class was always entertaining and it is set up in a way that makes it very easy to understand. As long as you go to class, understand the material, and do the homework, it is not hard to get an A. Definitely recommend taking it with her, you will not regret it.
Sister Lemon really cares about her students. I love her! Attendance is not mandatory but it really helps to hear her explain things. At the same time, homework is not mandatory but i don't know how you could do well in the class without at least looking at it...
Sister Lemon is always happy and makes class fun! She will do lots of experiments in class and play videos pretty frequently. Print out the lecture notes and do ALL the homework and you will be just fine. The tutors are also a great resource when the concepts are not sticking!
She is literally the best. She cares so much for each of her students, and she'll hug you if she sees you outside of class. She never has you turn in the homework, but do it. That's the only way you'll pass. She is an amazing teacher.
Sister Lemon has actually made Chemistry make sense to me, if you struggle with Chemistry take it from her!
I thought this class wouldn't need much effort, but I was wrong. I never got to take chemistry in high school, so this course felt too fast for me personally. Sister Lemon is super sweet and enthusiastic about the course.
I love Sister Lemon! She is an amazing teacher, just make sure and do all your homework and stay on top of things! She makes Chemistry fun!
She is a phenomenal professor! I came into Chemistry not excited to learn and did not know much, but I can tell you I have learn't a lot from her classes. She loves what she teaches and you can tell in the way she teaches. DO YOUR HOMEWORK.. this is what will help you do well on the exam. Class is not mandatory, but GO TO CLASS. Very helpful.
She is a great teacher and explains everything really well. If you do the homework you will do well on the tests, just make sure you understand the homework and if you get a problem wrong understand why it was wrong.
BEST Chemistry teacher at BYU-I! She cares about you and she only wants what is best for you! If you attend class everyday this class is so fun and you'll do good in it! Definitely the best teacher I have ever had here! Homework is not mandatory but if you do it, you'll do 10x better in this class. She makes chemistry super fun to learn as well.
Sister Lemon is the BEST! If you have to take chem 101 take it from her! She simplifies chemistry and makes it very easy to understand. Her lectures are always entertaining and she makes sure that each class is fun and interactive. There is optional hw and a quiz each week. Make sure to print the lecture notes and retake all the quizzes.
I think that Sister Lemon is an amazing teacher! Chemistry is not one of my strengths but she helps you understand the hard concepts. The only thing I wish is that there was more extra credit and that not all the points were exams. But if you go to the tutors she recommends, and do the homework, you will do great. She also doesn't have office hours
Sister Lemon is absolutely amazing. The class is hard. There are a lot of quizzes and a few exams. If you are not there, you will not pass. and DO THE HOMEWORK. But the thing I really like about her is she brings the gospel into chemistry, and she is very sincere about it. If you work hard and do the homework, you will be just fine.
TAKE CHEM101 FROM SIS. LEMON!!! Lectures are amazing, and many (optional) opportunities to practice the material. If you follow her advice at the beginning of the semester, you will be able to get an A. One caution, your grade comes from only the quiz and test scores, so be prepared to do well on them. Class has no required homework otherwise.
Sister Lemon is a great teacher she explains everything well and has the best personality. she also tells you exactly how to exceed in her class. DO THE HOMEWORK!!! would recommend taking her class!!!
Great Professor, make sure to do homework to be ready for quizzes and tests
Sister Lemon is amazing and her class really helps you understand chemistry better and in a way that you will understand far beyond her class. She asks you to do lots of homework, but it is optional. The tests are heavily graded but if you do the homework you will do great!
Sister lemon is super cool, she makes class pretty fun and does a lot of chemical reactions in class as examples. Her class material takes a work to understand but if you do the homework you will be fine. She really cares about her students so if you're struggling just talk to her after class and she will help you. 10/10 would take from her again.
I loved Sister Lemon. She did such a great job teaching, and you could clearly tell that she actually cares about her students. In order to do well in this class, just show up and do the homework. Also, ask questions! She will always stop whatever she is doing to answer your question and to help you really understand the material.
Sister Lemon is one of the best professor's I've had in my college experience so far. She responds to my e-mails quickly and she is so animated in lectures and provides so many resources for us to succeed. Always willing to answer questions and she encourages questions. She is so invested in her student's success.
Sister Lemon is the greatest professor ever! She actually made me like Chemistry! I looked forward to going to class every single time. She is so fun and loves life! You definitely need to go to class in order to understand, but if you do go to class, Sister Lemon will explain things in a way that just clicks! She always has great visuals! Love her
Sister Lemon is awesome. She explains things in simple ways that make sense. Attendance is not mandatory, but if you want to do well, you shouldn't miss class. Do the homework. Study for the exams. Don't take the quizzes casually. Sister Lemon is always willing to help. Ask lots of questions. She will guide you.
I love Sister Lemon, she makes the topics way easier than they look. She's caring and willing to help you with any problems you have, she is also funny and homework are not graded but are crucial for success in the class. I think the only reason why her class is a little hard is she does not offer you extra credit except rate my professor.
Sister Lemon is extremely personable and a fun person to be around. She will answer questions as clearly as possible and explains things in simple to understand ways that are easy to remember. The homework is not mandatory, but doing it really helps to understand the material and prepare for the quizzes/tests
Sister Lemon is a real sweetheart! She cares about her students, and tries to make chemistry as fun as possible. Lots of class demonstrations and explosions. Grade is based on weekly quizzes and 5 tests only, doing homework is your responsibility. Be ready to learn and take tests with her method. If you have to take 101, she's the best option!
She's super nice and really funny. This class will make you work for it. Homework is hard. Make sure you do your homework it really helps! She is really good at explaining in the beginning but once you get going it is harder to catch up once you are behind. She doesn't explain as in depth as in previous units. Go to class.
Sister Lemon is just amazing!! She cares about every single student, she will answer any of your questions and will help you understand the concepts. There 5tests but Sister Lemon helps you be prepared. She does fun demonstrations in class to make it real life application. She goes through the test to see what you missed, helps to see what missed.
She knows what she teaches, but she sometimes forgets that we as students do not know as much as her and need an explanation of what is being taught. She tends to be impatient and short with students who ask honest questions that tend to have a simple answer. She can be energetic, but sometimes it is a distraction and wastes time in class to learn.
Be ready to learn and do the homework and go to tutors the class time won't help with everything.
The homework is not collected, but it is a great practice that prepares you perfectly for what the tests will be on. There is no guessing what she will test on. Sister Lemon moves at a bit of a faster pace than some other chemistry teachers (so I have heard from other students) so if you can pick up the material quickly, you will be set.
Sister Lemon is such a great professor! She doesn't take attendance but skipping class isn't worth it. She covers so much and provides helpful tips that aren't provided in the lecture notes. Homework also isn't graded but it's in your best interest to do the homework and get the extra practice in.
Sister Lemon is an amazing Chemistry teacher. I took Chemistry previously and hated it until I took it with her. So does demonstrations to show you how things work visually. Homework isn't required, but would highly recommend doing. If you do all the homework you'll pass. She is extremely caring and hopes that her students understand the material.
Sister Lemon is awesome! The homework isnt graded but if you want to pass you need to do it. She gives really good lectures with lots of cool examples.
The only grades in this class are for open-note quizzes and tests which is stressful, but she really makes the material easy to understand. She is very passionate about chemistry and caring towards her students.
She is really nice and really passionate about teaching. I would give her a try if I were you.
Sister Lemon is an amazing teacher! Her lectures are straight forward and easy to understand. If you take initiative and do the homework and go to tutoring you will easily pass with an A. I love chemistry now!
Sister Lemon is a wonderful teacher. Her lectures and learning tools align perfectly with her quizzes and exams so if you understand those, you will perform well in her class. I felt like I could always ask for help and hints to understand the material better.
I loved taking Chem 101 from Sister Lemon, she made the lectures fun and easy to understand. She also was able to explain the concepts in more than one way so you can understand and grasp the concepts easier. She does give homework everyday but it's not mandatory to do, but will most definitely help you you pass the class!
Sister Lemon is the teacher to take chemistry from. Your final grade is based upon quizzes and tests, however if you do all the homework you will get a good grade. I really loved having her my first semester.
I LOVE SISTER LEMON!!! She is truly a light to all and makes coming to class a joy. The experiments she shows us are stellar. The enthusiasm she has for chemistry is contagious and definitely helps makes learning a million times more engaging and fun. HIGHLY RECOMMEND:)
Sister Lemon's homework is optional... but you need to do it. Seriously, I didn't listen to this advice and it showed. She is an amazing teacher and keeps class interesting. You will feel loved in this class and feel 100% better about chemistry after taking this class than you did before.
Sister Lemon is an amazing teacher! Her class requires a lot of time and is somewhat difficult, but if you pay attention in class and do the homework you will get a good grade and learn quality material. Her class moves at a fast rate so make sure to not get behind. She really cares for her students and would do anything to help anyone succeed.
I love Sister Lemon! She is absolutely amazing! Would 10/10 recommend taking her class. Your grade is only tests and quizzes. The quizzes are open note and she really prepares you for the tests!
She is really good at being involved in the class and helping you learn new material. Only grades are exams and tests. It is really important to do the homework, and attend class or else you won't pass. This is not a class to slack off in, you need to be 100% dedicated and motivated to work hard. But with this professor it is worth it!
She knows her subject and teaches it well. She makes you work for a good grade. The homework isnt graded. Only tests and quizzes make up your grade, so theres no padding if you dont do well on tests.
Sister Lemon is fantastic at simplifying concepts. Those new to Chemistry will find her class very helpful for understanding the basics in a clear and fun way. She assigns a lot of homework, but it is not graded, so those experienced with chemistry will find this a very easy class with great adaptability for what you need to review.
Sister Lemon thoroughly prepares the lectures to make them easy for your understanding. Homework is optional; however, I recommend doing it as it prepares you for quizzes and exams. Likewise, attendance is non-mandatory. But I assure you, attending class lessens the workload. In all, I really enjoyed this course! I defiantly recommend Sis. Lemon!
Best Chem teacher ever.
The course is difficult and every class is important so don't skip class. But Mrs. Lemon is awesome. She is very fun and sweet. She will literally tell you how to pass her class so if you do what she says you will do ok.
Sister Lemons is a fantastic professor. The class is definitely not one to take lightly, especially if it is your first semester like it was mine. Not a class you want to skip but if you do she does an awesome job of posting all the lecture slides and videos on the curriculum. She is very energetic which makes her easy to listen to in lectures.
She's a talented instructor who really knows her stuff. Your entire grade is based on quizzes and tests (homework is not graded and doesn't count toward your grade) however, so study hard! I highly recommend attending every lecture, but if you miss one or two you'll still pass.
I really enjoyed the class she is a very good teacher the only things graded are quizzes and exams so you need to do your homework for a good grade!
She is a great instructor when it comes to handling specific needs, but you need to speak up for her to help you. She wont check on you for understanding. For the level of the class, it feels like the pace was a little quick, so it is important to do the homework she gives you access to.
Sister Lemon is an incredible teacher, here's my thoughts: PROS: You aren't required to do the homework She doesn't take attendance will listen to your concerns Homework is not busy work She replaces lowest test score with final test score CONS: Don't do the homework and your test scores suffer Skip class, miss critical info Fast pace (pro/con)
If you are the type of person who needs to be kept accountable to do your homework, do not take this class. If you are the type of person who won't go to class unless it's mandatory, do not take this class. Both are NOT required. I didn't go to class multiple times and I was complacent with my homework. So for me the tests were really hard! :(
I really enjoyed her class and how passionate she was about the gospel, her family, and also chemistry. We could tell she loved and cared deeply for us. I definitely enjoyed her class even if it was hard at times. The only thing I would change is the lecture notes that she had. Id prefer having the answers and work of the learning check questions.
Sister Lemon is an amazing professer. She really cares about her students and teaches in a way that anyone can understand. If you have the chance to take her, do it. If you pay attention in class and do the homework, you will not have any trouble in the class.
Sister Lemon loves each of her students and wants each of them to succeed, if you ask her questions, she will answer them completely, I only wish that all of my teachers were as helpful and thoughtful as she is! Definately take from her! She is Awesome!!
the homework doesn't count for a grade but without it you won't pass.
Homework isn't mandatory, but it gets the A. Sis. Lemon is an amazing teacher and really wants you to succeed. If you will do the work and take advantage of the help given, you'll do great.
Sister Lemon is amazing! She loves her students. It's important to go to class. Do the homework even though it is not graded because it helps you do better on the tests and quizzes which make up your grade. She is very personable and easy to approach.
Sister Lemon is literally amazing. I took chemistry in high school and understood absolutely nothing, so I was really nervous for this class but Sister Lemon is magic, she makes everything make sense. It was still a pretty hard class because the concepts are just confusing, but Sister Lemon makes it as easy as it can be.
I love sis Lemon. Dont ask for special extra credit because shes fair and gives everyone the same opportunity, regardless of situation. Shes a truly wonderful teacher that isnt afraid to put her teaching style out there in a way that helps you understand the concepts. Make sure to show up! Every class felt more than worth it to learn Chemistry!
Sister Lemon is awesome! Work hard and do the homework.
She's a really great teacher, super fun and is passionate about teaching. Make sure to do the homework and study and you'll past just fine.
I would HIGHLY recommend sister Lemon. She simplifies things very well. She cares about us as students, and her lectures, and demos are awesome! She really helps you get the concepts down. Homework is optional, but doing it HELPS! Because of her demos and kind, caring nature it wasn't a burden showing up for class, it was always very enjoyable.
Sister Lemon is the BEST chemistry professor EVER! She is loving and fun. She tries her best to help you to success in the class. There is homework after every class. The homework is very important. It helps you to be prepared for the exams. There are 5 exams after every unit. Plus a final. She uses paper exams, which is the way I like more.
Sister Lemon is amazing! She is helpful, supportive, and super fun. She is a great teacher and makes an effort to ensure that every student is learning and can be successful. The class is only difficult if you don't take advantage of the resources she provides. There is not textbook, but I highly suggest doing the homework, which isn't graded.
Sister Lemon was an absolute gem. She really cares about her students and she has a clear passion for Chemistry. She makes the class interactive and interesting. She provides homework for each lecture, which is vital for passing the test. DO THE HOMEWORK!!!
Sister Lemon is a fantastic professor that really cares about the students. Attendance and homework is not mandatory, but it's absolutely crucial that you come to class and stay caught up on homework in order to get a good grade in the class.
Sister Lemon is an amazing professor! I would highly recommend her class. Make sure to print out all the notes before the first day of class and keep up on the homework.
She is such a nice person who truly loves what we teaches. She is great about simplifying so that it is easier to learn and understand!
Sister Lemon really is an excellent professor, she's very caring and teaches the content well. The class is fast paced because of the heavy content and short amount of time to get through it. The homework is not for a grade but VITAL to success. The class builds on itself- don't get behind, if you do see the tutor or catch yourself up immediately.
Sister Lemon is an awesome professor! She is very clear in what she teaches and wants you to succeed. This class is great preparation for future chemistry classes. Sister lemon expects you to work hard and utilize the resources she offers (VITAL TO MAKE A PRIORITY OR YOU WILL GET BEHIND). She does not have office hours which may be difficult.
Super amazing teacher and is willing to help you. Do your part and you'll pass the class. Homework isn't mandatory but if you don't do it, it will effect your test scores.
Be prepared to study and do the homework! Sister Lemon gives really good lectures, but I found it helpful to take notes on my own as well. This allows me to write them in my own words, and I am able to remember things better. Overall, Sister Lemon is a great professor but her class does require a lot of work.
Make sure you do the homework and come to class
Sister Lemon is an AMAZING professor. She really helps you understand the material and her class isn't too hard. Just go to class and do the homework and you will do good. She is so kind, funny, and respected.
if you take chem 101 from BYU Idaho you have to take it from sister lemon she is amazing. Do the Homework and Practice Quizzes.
Sister Lemon makes you work for the grade you get. She expects you to put in the effort and she is very caring.
The grade for this class is entirely based on the quizzes and exams. That is kinda tricky. But Sister Lemon is so spiritual, kind, and genuinely cares about you. Shes amazing but take her seriously! Her class is definitely not an easy A.
SISTER LEMON IS AMAZING!!!!! If you struggled with Chemistry in High School, I highly recommend you take this course from her! She very clearly explains every concept and is very helpful answering questions anyone may have. She cares about her students and is hilarious! As long as you attend class every day and do the homework, you'll get an A.
If you show up to class and do the homework, you will be fine. Sister Lemon is amazing and truly cares about everyone.
I love Sister Lemon! She has fun lectures and works hard to make sure you understand the material. She is very caring and will work with you if a situation arises and you need some help. I feel uplifted in her class and comfortable asking questions and participating. My advice: do the homework,review quizzes for exams, ask questions, go to tutors.
Sister Lemon is so nice and caring. She makes class as fun and enjoyable as chemistry can be. She is also good at explaining chemistry and made me understand it a lot more than I did in high school.
Sister Lemon is the best teacher for CHEM 101. She loves her job and her students, and she wants everyone to learn and do well!
Sister Lemon is an amazing professor. With a concept as hard as chemistry, she is sure to never leave a student behind. She is excited about the subject, and she truly loves her students individually. While homework is optional in her class, I highly suggest completing all of the homwork. It is great practice and helps greatly on the exams.
Sister Lemon is an AMAZING professor!!! Do the homework or else you won't get the grade you want. Its not for a grade but in order to succeed it is crucial.
Sister Lemon is a great professor. She is passionate about her job and she cares about her students. Her class is easy to follow as long as you do the homework.
Sister Lemon cares about her students. She wants each of us to be successful and does a great job teaching the material in a fun, clear, and uplifting way. She does not take attendance or make you turn in homework, but it is important and NECESSARY for you to be present in class to learn the material... AND it is VITAL that you do ALL the homework.
She is really personable and breaks things down in her lectures, wanting comprehension over rote memorization (although you can use that too). When I took it, there was no outside office hours, so if you missed an important lecture your goose was cooked! HW was non-graded but great review for all the quizzes and exams that make your entire grade.
She is so caring and loves all her students!
Her course is challenging, but if you struggle to understand the material or her teaching style, she does offer tutors who have taken her class and did well- I went several times and they are so helpful! Also, show up a few minutes early, and she will be happy to answer a few of your questions on the homework or quizzes. Sister Lemon loves students
Sister Lemon is AWESOME!! She really knows her chemistry and truly wants her students to understand the material. She always opens class asking if anyone has any questions to make sure you know the material. I highly recommend taking her!
Great class. Learned lots. If you want to pass do the homework and don't be afraid to go to the tutors.
Sister Lemon is seriously an amazing teacher! She made chemistry so much easier than I thought it would be. You need to go to class just so that you can hear how she explains things. I missed one time and that's the only thing that I don't understand well from Chem 101. I would love to take her class again! I wish more professors were like her!
do the homework!
Sister Lemon has helped me become successful in chemistry and I haven't taken it since high school. I printed off the slides and the hw and put them in spiral notebooks and that has been a great way to keep up. The hw is very helpful and if you complete all of it and understand it well, you will be successful on the tests!
Sister Lemon is a great professor who really knows her stuff. She is a happy person and makes taking required chemistry classes as good as it gets. I would take 105 from her as well if I needed to go onto 105.
I loved taking this course with this professor because she made the class a lot easier, she explained in a way that although the topics are hard, she made them seem easy. I also loved how she cared about students, she would bring treats to class, she would show and explain with fun experiments and she helped the class to get ready for the final.
Loved taking my first chemistry class from her! Not only did she make the class easy to understand, but she always provided "easy tricks" to make the units even better. You know that she loves the subject and loves and cares about the students. Would take a class from her again!
Sister Lemon is a fantastic teacher! She has clear expectations, and gives you everything you need to pass this class. She cares a lot about students, and she wants us to learn. If you do the homework, you will get an A in her class. Creative in her ways to help us remember things.
TAKE CHEM101 FROM SISTER LEMON!! She is amazing! As hard as chemistry can be, she makes it as easy as possible. If you go to class and do the homework, you will do fine! If you don't you will struggle. Ask questions is class! She is a great person and so loving!
Take Sister Lemon! She genuinely cares about each of her students and puts so much effort into creating helpful lectures and fun experiments. Attendance and homework are not necessary, but are so helpful if you want a good grade. She is amazing and would definitely take again!
I have never been a fan of chemistry but she really makes chemistry fun to learn and outlines very simply to understand.
Sister Lemon is the best professor I have ever had. I was very worried going into chem that I was going to hate it. She makes it fun and truly cares about her students. She doesnt make you feel stupid if you have a lot of questions on the same concept she just covered. She is very patient with all of her students.
So this is the only professor I have ever left a review few for. I have had some great professors but Sister Lemon goes above and beyond to make sure class is interesting and you are understanding the material. Do ALL the homework and go to class, and you WILL pass. Easily the best Chem professor!
Have you never taken a chemistry class before? Or are you nervous about it? Then take chem from Sister Lemon! Her class is very energetic and makes waking up for a 7:45 class so worth it. She knows how to teach and is very each to get ahold of. She cares about each student and wants you to succeed!
She is a good teacher and understands what she is talking about. The hardest part is not being able to go to her study sessions at 7:45 because of other classes. she wont move it. So you cant really go it in the morning if you have early classes
Shes awesome! Very kind and knows how to teach well so you understand.
Sister Lemon is a great professor. Her teaching style has helped me understand chem better than other teachers I have had in the past. She is very passionate about the subject and will go out of her way to help you with any problems you might have.
Sister Lemon is amazing! She's been teaching for a while and knows how to help students succeed. She will always be prepared and on top of things. Attendance is not mandatory and homework is not graded, but if you skip class and don't do the homework then it will be very difficult to do well. Just Study hard, pay attention in class and you'll pass.
Disclaimer: I have never liked, nor done well in Chemistry. Sister Lemon was a good teacher, but due to being an adjunct professor did not have an office students could stop by and get help. She cares about her students- but beware, her tests are very tricky. She has optional "active study groups" in the morning and those are helpful too.
I really like Sister Lemon! She is very clear in her directions and expectations for the course. She makes her classes fun and interesting, and she has specific tutors for just her class. The tutors are AMAZING too! You definitely need to do the homework to get a good grade in the class, and it's very self-driven (procrastinators beware)
she's simply the best. She helps you a lot. You can just tell that she wants you to understand and succeed in the class. She helps you out by finding ways to memorize hard stuff. She provides you with everything to get an A in the class. She makes me want to take the class again. I like chemistry now.
Sister Lemon is the best. She builds on new topics every day and as long as you keep up with the homework you will be just fine! She is so caring about her students and has such a fun personality and will always try to help you understand the material. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is nervous about taking a chem class!
She will do anything to help her students. Chem is hard as it is but she makes it so you only need to worry about the important things. Do the homework because it will help you prepared for the tests.
Sister Lemon is a great teacher. She really cares about her students and wants them to succeed. She doesn't take attendance but because it is a chemistry class I would recommend going to all the lectures. There are online quizzes every couple of weeks but they aren't too difficult as long as you know the material. Just study and you'll do fine.
If you have put Chemistry away for a while now, it's time to take it from SISTER LEMON! She is amazing professor! She will help you understand the areas that the students struggle the most, so that you would succeed on the exams! She is very caring and super nice! Do homework, it's not graded! It will prepare you for the quizzes and exams!
Sister Lemmon was the best teacher for Chem 101. She was so helpful and had everything laid out to help students understand the material and get the best grade that they possibly could. Class attendance is not mandatory but is encouraged because that is where you learn all the material and get great insight on how to do your best. Do the homework!!
Sister Lemon is the BEST Chemistry teacher you can ask for. She makes the class interesting and exciting, she explains what she teaches very well, and she makes it easy. Advice- do the HOMEWORK and go to the Active Study groups You CAN get an A, and she will make it your FAVORITE class
Sister Lemon is a great choice! You can not miss a single second of class or you will be in trouble! (I took the class when classes got cancelled) it is 100 times more hard without class! She is always ready to help you!
I love Sister Lemon! She makes the material really clear and takes time to answer questions and make sure everyone understands. She does not take attendance but if you don't go, you will miss a lot! You are graded off of online quizzes, 5 exams and a final. The homework isn't graded, but if you do it and go to class and you will be just fine!
Sis Lemon is awesome! Honestly I don't like chemistry, and she helped me understand a subject that doesn't come naturally for me. She knows her stuff and is a great teacher! Always willing to help you out. If you do the homework and show up to class you will be fine! Homework isn't graded, but it will help you get a good grade on the tests.
Sister Lemon genuinely cares about the success of her students. You can tell that she is very passionate about what she is teaching, and wants each of her students to do well. She is fun, and caring all at the same time! She gives you the tools to do well, but it is up to you what you do with them
Sister Lemon is one of the BEST teachers I have ever had. She is so kind and really cares for her students. She expects a lot out you, but that is a good thing. She teaches the material very well, and does her very best to make it understandable and interesting. Word of advice, go to class and do the homework!!
Sister Lemon is very loving and wants the best for all of her students. The class can be difficult, but she will give you all the tools necessary to be successful if you work for it. It's been a hard adjustment transferring from on campus to online this semester, but she is doing her best to help all of her students.
She is one of my favorite professors here at BYU-Idaho. She truly cares for you individually and is willing to help you if you are struggling. She has many resources to help you understand her material and she teaches with 110% enthusiasm every day! She also gives great life lessons outside of class at her active study groups that help you succeed.
Sister Lemon is the Best! I did not have a good foundation in Chemistry in high school, but with her help I was able to learn all of this material. She keeps class engaged with many visual experiments and works out problems with you as a class. She even has study groups that are super helpful! Plus, DO the homework even if it isn't due. It helps!
Sister Lemon is an amazing professor. She gives you all of the tools you need to succeed. She is passionate about her students, this position, and Chem. Sister lemon is on top of things! Her expectations are straight forward and if you fail you must have been sleeping.
Great teacher! She's friendly and understanding. She willingly answers all questions from her students during lecture, and has a clear vision of what needs to be understood by her students for them to succeed.
Sister Lemon is one of the best teachers I've ever had. I never thought I would ever understand the concepts of Chemistry until I learned those same concepts from her. Some homework problems are harder than others, but they are beneficial for a students learning. She also gives good advice on what students should do to receive a passing grade.
Great teacher, but you need to do the homework!
Shes very happy and nice. I didnt like her teaching style because she didnt let you struggle to learn. She held your hand too much and then she likes to trick you on the tests. Shes very nice though.
If you do your homework and show up you will get a great grade in the class.
Sister Lemon's lectures are great, but you shouldn't blink. Also do you homework, it is super helpful. She is always willing to answers your questions.
Sister Lemon is INCREDIBLE! She doesn't require much. The only things you are graded on are quizzes and exams. Attendance, homework, and active study groups are all options(but do them!!!). Sister Lemon is someone that you can go to for anything. I feel extremely loved by her, and I know she truly cares for me as a student and as a person.
Sister Lemon was one of the best professors I have ever had. She knows her stuff and has a way of teaching that makes it feel like you're not even in class. She cares about her students and has a positive, bubbly, and hilarious personality. TAKE HER CLASS!
Put in effort or you will fail.
Great teacher, not a great human being. I would never take a class by her again even though she really does explain things well. She knows exactly where students mess up and tells you before you fall into the trap. She smiles a lot but doesn't actually care. Underneath her charisma, her personality is thorny. I don't trust her.
Sister Lemons is kind of a quirky teacher but she really does a great job at teaching and wanting to help you succeed. She has goofy sayings to remember materials but you will never forget them, especially on the test. I didnt do a ton of the homework, mainly because i understood it already, but she gives you the option to study as much as you need
Sister Lemon is AMAZING! She teaches hard concepts in a way that is very easy to understand. Completing all the homework and attending class each day is very beneficial and will help you to succeed in her class. She loves her students and will do anything she can to help them. If you are taking CHEM101, I would highly recommend her!
Sister Lemon is an incredible Professor. She teaches the concepts very clearly. This class is challenging and takes effort in order to succeed. But with Sister Lemon, it makes this class much easier and really enjoyable! She is so enthusiastic and kind. She helps and encourages and cares about her students success in her class.
Attendance isn't mandatory but go to class. There is a lot of material to cover so it's a fast pace class and you can get behind very quickly. She gives good feedback on tests. Sister Lemon is a sweet person, you can tell that she's very passionate about chemistry and gets excited about it. She LOVES her students. Chem101 was a good time!
I absolutely love Sister Lemon! She is by far one of the best professors on campus. She truly cares about the success of her students and cares about each and every one of us. But make sure to always come to class because she does incredible lectures that really help to understand the concepts. She is such a wonderful teacher!
Sister Lemon makes the best of a bad situation. I wasn't looking forward to taking chemistry because it's not really necessary for my degree. However, she teaches everything clearly, to the point, and even has some cool in class applications. I still don't like chemistry but as a teacher, she did a great job.
If you show up to class and do the homework you should do really well in her class. will answer your questions if you don't understand and will help out.
she is amazing! Professor Lemon makes going to class fun all the time.
Sister Lemon is an amazing professor! She teaches chemistry in a way that just makes sense and everything clicks. There is homework but if you do it, you'll ace the quizzes and the tests. Her lectures pull you in and class is over before you know it. I'd recommend her 100%, she is AMAZING!
She is a very passionate teacher. She cares for her students and loves what she teaches. She will do anything to help her students do well. You have to work hard in her class to understand the material, but it is enjoyable.
Sister Lemon is the best college professor you'll find. The real good ones are rare so take chemistry from her!! She cares so much about her students and their success, and she will do all in her power to help you succeed!
Sister Lemon was an amazing professor! Go to her lectures because she gives a lot of good tips and tricks to learn the information. I learned a lot in this class that has carried over and helped me in other classes as well. Take chemistry from her!
Sister Lemon is the best teacher Ive ever! She takes a hard class and teaches it so well that its easy. Shes super kind and helps her students in any way she can. She makes class fun too, shes really energetic and loves Chemistry . Youll not regret taking her. You go to class, take notes, take tests/quizzes. HW is optional but helpful.
Sister Lemon is an awesome teacher, and really helped me understand chemistry better.
Sister Lemon has been an amazing instructor who really shows that she cares for and loves her subject and her students. Although attendance ins't mandatory, skipping class could put you behind. Homework in Sister Lemon's class is not graded but it is essential in the success of this class. I loved this class!
Her class was fast paced, but definitely worth it.
Sister Lemon is a great professor! She is very encouraging and loves to help you understand what you're doing. Though I didn't end with the best grade, that was on me. Make sure you do your part, and "Do Your Homework"! You will succeed. Sister Lemon rocks!
Sister Lemon is super awesome! She has very clear lectures and she loves doing experiments. If you still don't understand the information from lectures, then go to her Active Study Groups where she will run you through practice problems. As long as you do the homework (which she doesn't make you turn in) and attend class, you will succeed.
The homework is not graded or required, but if you don't learn how to do the concepts in the homework you will not pass.
One the first day of class she was very energetic at 7:45 am, and I thought about dropping, but I am so glad I didn't. Sister Lemon is a great teacher who really knows what it's like to not know chemistry, so she makes it as simple as possible. Go to class, do the homework, and use the other resources for additional help, and you will do just fine
Sister Lemon is an amazing teacher. I've never taken chemistry before and she made it so easy to understand. She wants you to succeed and will give you plenty of things to help you. Your grade is based off of the quizzes and exams, but if you attend class and do the optional homework you will do well in this class.
Sister Lemon is very passionate about chemistry and her students. She teaches in a way that is easy to understand and makes a hard subject more enjoyable. I would highly recommended taking chemistry from her. She is amazing!
Sister Lemon is amazing! Take her for chem101! She teaches in a way that helps you understand and always has fun engaging examples. There is lots of homework but it isnt submitted for a grade. If you chose not to do it you wont be prepared for quizzes and exams.
Fairly easy. She makes things easy to learn and gives good tips for remembering things for the tests. The only grades are tests and quizzes. There is homework but it's optional although I recommend doing it because it will prepare you for tests and quizzes. She is really nice and loves all her students. I would definitely recommend taking her!
Sister Lemon is a great teacher! When she says to do something just do it because it will help. DO THE HOMEWORK. Even though it is not graded it prepares you for the test.
Sister Lemon is an AMAZING teacher. I took chemistry and didn't feel that I was very good at chemistry. Sister Lemon was there every step of the way to help me learn. She has Active Study Groups where you can get help from her directly and other chemistry teachers. She makes chemistry seem easy and really finds good ways to help you learn
Sister Lemon is such a kind professor. Her class is difficult, due to the nature of the subject, but she is so willing to help you every step of the way. I took this same class from a different professor and failed, so I retook it from her and did well. She teaches the subjects clearly, and provides many resources to help you be prepared for tests!
SHE IS THE BEST. She made Chemistry so easy to understand. If you do your HW and attend class you will be great! She has active study groups and I loved going just to see her! She is so inspirational and made me want to be a better person.
Sister Lemon is awesome! Chemistry is not an easy class but she did her absolute best to help each student truly understand the subject. She is great at answering questions and doing demonstrations on the subject matter.
I really enjoy Sister Lemons class. It has been the hardest class that I took this semester (and also one of my favorites) but it is worth it! She really cares about her students and teaches for understanding. She is a fast teacher but has given so many resources to help you out!
Sister Lemon is an amazing Professor. Make sure you do your homework and go to class and you will pass the class. She is very good at explaining the concepts and makes the material easy.
Sister Lemon seriously is a gem! She LOVES chemistry and she LOVES her students. Never thought I would be so engaged and interested in a chemistry class. SKIPPING CLASS WILL PUT YOU BEHIND. She doesn't have office hours. By far the best chem 101 teacher at BYUI. Don't settle for less than her. She has also been offering an additional study group!
Sister Lemon was awesome she always took time to explain to us how to do every problem and would always stop to make sure that the material was understood and she always provided extra opportunities to master the material to get a good grade
Sister Lemon is a great teacher, and really made it interesting to come to class. Every lecture was an hour long, but the time always went by fast. I would totally recommend her for CHEM101.
I loved sister Lemon! She taught in a way that made sense to me. She also takes the time to make sure that everyone understands. To do well in her class all you have to do is go to class and do the homework. She has an active study group outside of class that if you have the time is a great resource to get additional help!
There isn't a chance for me to put 4.5 so i put a 5 star. She is a great professor! Definitely in the top half of all professors. Her slides are far from perfect and that is my ONLY complaint. She doesn't require a textbook and just uses homemade slideshows. If you don't know what your doing the slides offer next to no help. Make sure you attend.
She's an ok teacher, but I did not like to ask her any questions. Each time I asked a question I got useless words with a defensive tone. I asked her to explain something once and she said "Because it is! Just because it is!" Another time I said, "I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around that." Response? "Well you need to." Not very helpful.
Sister lemon is very caring about her students, She loves to answer questions and gives you all the resources you need to pass with a good grade. I personally enjoyed her teaching style, fun, outgoing, and resourceful.
She is a great teacher and really wants you to succeed in her class. Will help you as much as you can pass her class.
Sister Lemon is one of the greatest teacher that I have ever had in college. She is incredible at making chemistry easy to understand for everyone. She doesn't use a textbook, but instead has you use the PowerPoints as one instead. As long as you show up to class and do the homework, you will pass the class with an A.
She literally cares so much about every single one of her students. She does her part in helping her students be successful in her class. She provides review hours which allows you to talk more one on one on specific material that you're confused about. She also provides helpful motivation at the beginning of her review sessions. Take her class!
Sister Lemon is the best! She loves her students and chemistry. This semester, Winter 2020, was weird with the transition to online classes because of Covid-19. Even with this, Sister Lemon made sure students had access to all needed material. The class is will structured and you will always know what to expect as far as quizzes and tests.
She's the best. Anyone can pass if they want to. She makes it fun with real examples in class (or at least videos).
Best chem teacher out there.
Even though the homework is not mandatory, It should be done to maintain a good grade.
Sister Lemon was AWESOME. She gave interesting lectures that kept you focused all class long. When she says do the homework, DO IT. If you come to class and do the homework you will get a good mark. She also holds an optional group study session. This will be super helpful if you attend it. Overall awesome course, awesome prof.
Sis Lemon, is the best, I absolutely hate chemistry and still do however she makes it bearable. She is very easy-going, she treats you like an adult and turns over the class to you. Homework and Attendance is optional but you shouldn't let it stay that way. do the homework & don't miss class! I would definitely take her again!
Sister Lemon is a kind person, but was a mediocre professor at best. I am a good student who does all of their work but felt Sister Lemon wasn't willing to work with me. I had a hard time getting ahold of her considering she doesn't answer emails regularly and didn't seem to truly care about me as a student. Wouldn't recommend.
I am sure Sister Lemons is a great teacher in the classroom, but taking this class online was very difficult. Your grade in this class is solely based on quizzes and tests, which in my case, was not easy. However, Sister Lemon does have great energy and you can tell she is very passionate. I just wouldn't recommend taking her online.
I was afraid of this class because comments I had heard before, but this class is amazing! Sister Lemon helps you understand chemistry in the clearest way you can think! This course is a lot of work to do, but believe me, you will not feel it! She makes her class fun and she cares about your understanding. Reach out to her, she is awesome!
I took her Chem101 class remotely proctored(thanks COVID). Her format for class was super easy to understand. She was always available for questions. I emailed her on various occasions and her responses were always quick(usually in a day or less).
Sister Lemon is phenomenal. She really makes Chemistry easy to understand. Don't get me wrong,this is a hard class. I have taken Chemistry before and not done well, but with Sister Lemon, she explains Chemistry in a way that makes it easy to understand. She had it set up at the beginning of the semester and it was easy to know what was expected
Lots of note taking but with the good lectures she does it is worth it!
Do the homework, watch the lectures, find a great tutor, and do your best on quizzes.
Sister Lemon did a great job teaching remote classes. She recorded her lectures ahead of time so it was easy to get ahead and watch lectures on my own time. She does a lot of practice problems and has good homework problems (that are not turned in but help a lot) to make sure you understand concepts well. She is straightforward and a great teacher!
I would definitely recommend Sister Lemon for CHEM101 students. Her lectures kept me engaged and I felt prepared for all of the exams. She cares about her students! There is a lot of homework (it isn't graded) but it will help you do well in the class. She is the best Chemistry teacher I have ever had!
Homework is optional but can really help. I took the class during the covid-19 stuff so it was supposed to be on campus but was changed to remote. She put up her videos for each class. I was able to get everything done in a day for the week. There's a quiz every week and if you pay attention to detail you'll do fine. She responds quickly to email.
Sister Lemon covers all of the information you need to know for tests, there are no surprises. The homework is not counted towards your grade, but you still need to do the homework if you want to succeed. I took this class over zoom and she did not hold her classes live, so in order to ask questions you must email her or attend her office hours.
Do your homework, study, and ask questions.
In her lectures, she explains the material very clear and is easy to understand. The class was remote, and lectures were already recorded, so if you need to pause and go back to understand better you can! She also has the online course videos if you need more explaining. Holds live office hours for questions. Do your homework!
your grade in the class is based on your test scores only, for online learning there are only lecture videos and no live class which can be a bit difficult. the class is fine if you do your homework, watch all the lecture videos, and go to a tutor if you need more help.
Sister Lemon is awesome! Explains the material clearly and in a way that everyone can understand. If chemistry isn't your best subject, take it from her! Make sure to do the homework and get any outside help if chemistry is new to you or just not your thing. If you have chemistry experience, should be relatively easy compared to other chem classes.
SIster Lemon was great to take CHEM101 from. We had class remotely due to COVID, but it was still a great class. We watched recorded lectures then could attend office hours live to ask questions. She explains the material really well and is willing to help. Your grade in this class only comes from tests and quizzes. She is a really great teacher!
Overall she explains everything really well and runs you through all the chemistry problems more than once, so that you clear all doubts and feel confident you can do them on your own ! Great teacher !
As an International student that knows how hard Chemistry can be, I am really grateful that Sister Lemon was my teacher. She loves Chemistry and places a lot of effort so you can understand. There is a lot of homework but if you want to succeed in her class you need to dedicate the time.
Sister Lemon is a great teacher! The class can be tough, but you will master chemistry IF YOU DO THE HOMEWORK!
Sister Lemon is the best! She is passionate about chemistry and her students! She offers so much help like office hours and extra lectures for understanding. She wants everyone to succeed. This class can be a little challenging but just DO YOUR HOMEWORK and you will pass! I would for sure take a class from her again!
She has homework but it is not graded, but it is best if you do it. She is good at presenting the material in her lectures in a way that was easy to remember for me.
Caring, Loves students. Do your homework!
Sister Lemon is very kind but relies on you to do almost all the work. I felt like her class was very one sided and she did not do much to help me. If you want to understand, you will most likely need to go do your own learning through tutors and youtube.
This class is hard enough but Sister Lemon made it easy to go through lectures and provided answers to homework which was very helpful
Super awesome teacher! She is great at explaining everything and gives awesome lectures. Always has fun demonstrations. I took her class online because of covid and it was nice to watch the lectures and be able to pause. Only graded on quizzes and tests, does offer extra credit.
Sister Lemon is great! If you do all the homework you will understand the materials well!
Dude, TAKE SISTER LEMON!! She is so enthusiastic about Chemistry, loves her students, and is just a really great teacher. This class does take work--you have to study. However, it's not the hardest class you'll ever take. Do the homework, go to office hours, do the lectures. Lectures are pre-recorded--great b/c can fit them around YOUR schedule.
This professor really breaks down chemistry making it easy to understand and actually enjoyable and I've never been a fan of chemistry.
Sister Lemon is an AMAZING teacher! She is kind and truly wants to help you succeed in her class. She tries to make learning the material fun and entertaining, and she works with you step-by-step in understanding difficult concepts and problems. Go to the lectures and office hours, DO THE HOMEWORK (this is a must to do wel!!!), and you'll do great!
Sister Lemon is passionate about chemistry. She gives a lot of homework that is not graded, but it prepares you for the quizzes and tests. She provides lots of supports and options for help. You are only graded on quizzes and tests. I took this class remotely. I enjoyed being able to pause and revisit lectures when I didn't understand something.
Sister Lemon is the most caring teacher you will ever have! :) But this class takes some work, just keep up on lectures and homework and go to tutoring if you need help and you will definitely pass if you try!
Sister Lemon is so kind! Watch the lectures and do the homework and you'll be just fine!
Lemon was a thorough professor who made sure she covered all of the material and gave a lot of practice examples/questions. She was very nice and helped me whenever I needed it.
She's one of my favorite teachers. She loves her subject and explains things super well. With the switch to remote learning, she transitioned really well. All of her lectures are posted at the beginning of the semester. She has office hours twice a week. Homework isn't graded, but it is super beneficial for studying
Sister Lemon knows her stuff! She does a really good job at going over practice problems during the lecture and specifies what kind of questions will be on the test. She gives you all the resources to be successful in this class. It is up to you to put in the time and effort.
Sister Lemon is probably one of the best professors for chemistry. She is very interactive and uses a lot of different learning methods to help you learn the material. Just do all of the homework and you will be good to go!
She strives to make Chemistry as fun and as comprehensive as she can. She understands that it can be a daunting subject and tries to make it so everyone can succeed. It was a fun class with lots of fun chemistry demonstrations.
This class can be very overwhelming at first. Sister Lemon is super nice and really enjoys chemistry and teaching the class. There is just a lot of memorization involved. The homework is not mandatory and there is a lot of it. It is beneficial if you break it up into smaller sections. It does help a lot. It's not an easy class by far.
Sister Lemon is a really good teacher. She cares about all her students and sets up the class in an organized and clear way. A lot of material is covered in the course though, so be sure to take the time to study. She also includes cool demonstrations of chemical reactions in class, which I really loved. For me she made chemistry less horrible.
Sister Lemon is a great teacher and even better in person. She is amazing and very caring for her students. Be aware that your grade is strictly from tests and quizzes. There are tons of homework that is not for a grade but differently makes or breaks your grade because it prepares you for the tests. She is the best!
Majority of your time learning is spent by doing homework on your own time. Simply not my learning style. Nice professor though.
Sister Lemon was a great instructor, and made the adjustment to remote classes easier with recorded lectures. My only complaint with this class is that all the points come from exams and quizzes, so you really have to know your stuff. She's great though!
Sister Lemon is great! Best Chem teacher I've had in my life. Due to Covid, I wish I was able to be on campus to take her class so I can witness her teaching inside of class. But her videos are simple and clear. This class is still hard for me, but if you do the homework and attend her office hours, you should be fine.
I took this class remote online so I never got to meet sister Lemon in person but teaching remotely online did not make her less great. She has a great teaching way. She makes sure she covers everything in a universal language and she always backs it up with examples. If you've never taken CHEM before/are scared you should take it with sister Lemon
Mrs. Lemon is an overall amazing professor. CHEM101 can essentially be broken down to class lectures, taking notes, optional (but very helpful) homework, quizzes, and exams. Mrs. Lemon does a wonderful job in explaining all of the material. I felt the class was not too difficult. You will do well in this class if you put in the effort and study.
I HATED chemistry until I took Chem 101 with sister Lemon. Her remote lectures were great because they were recorded and you could pause them if you need to. She explained in detail what is expected and prepares you well for homework and exams. Not all chemistry professors do this nearly this well. Do the homework and lectures and you'll do well.
I took this class the remote COVID semester. She was super nice, but it was hard because instead of doing remote classes on zoom, she just made it an online class. I am not usually very good with online classes so I was disappointed that she did not do live lectures. Good professor, just know what kind of class style you are getting into.
Sister Lemon made chemistry so much easier for me. I took chem in highschool and I did not do very well, however taking this class with sister lemon made it so much more doable. If you do the homework and take the quizzes seriously you will succeed in the class.
She is great just be mindful that for any class that is meant to be in person, might be more challenging over zoom. As for the teacher though, she is awesome.
She is a good professor but most of your grade is based on exams and quizzes. She should grade homework as well.
SIster Lemon is awesome. Her class is based on tests and quizzes so study hard. It is a more difficult class but if you watch the lecture videos and go to the tutor then you should be fine.
Chemistry is a tough subject no matter what the circumstances are for most people. But I was disappointed in the way the class was handled this semester as an online class instead of having zoom meetings throughout the semester. You just have to know as long as you do your best to understand the material and work hard you'll be fine.
Sister Lemon gives great lectures and explains everything really well, and the lectures were recorded so you could pause or go over things again. Grade is based on tests and quizzes, so make sure to do the homework since everything on the tests is gone over on the homework. I loved taking her class online though, she's awesome!
Sister Lemon really is an awesome professor. She provides everything you need to pass the class with an A. Her class is super organized as well. There is quite a bit of homework and there are lecture videos to watch, but they are there to help. If you don't do them, you won't get a good grade. You have to actually do the class.
she was a great teacher, and lost of videos, but no extra credit, so just do well on the test, it is a majority of your grade.
Sister Lemon is a very kind teacher and she knows her stuff. I wasn't a huge fan of doing this class online during the pandemic though. I had a pretty full schedule this semester and with many other professors handing out lots of busywork, I felt like I didn't have the time necessary for Chem. Also I never saw any other students this semester.
I took this course during COVID so it ended up being online. Her recorded lectures are easy to understand and she goes through everything you need to do well on tests and quizzes.
Professor Lemon's class is difficult in the right way -- no busy work but you'll need to master the material to do well. Her grading criteria is clear and the outline of the class is excellent. Only thing is I wish she would've spent a little more time on the principles of chemistry instead of just the how-to of formulas etc.
In person I'm sure this class would have been much more enjoyable, but I would not recommend taking it online. Be sure to set aside time to keep up on the lectures and homework. Your grade comes only from quizzes and tests with no make-up work or late work allowed. I learned this the hard way... tears were shed.
Sister Lemon is a very good teacher. i was always afraid to study chemistry but she explained chemistry really well and replied email fast. You can definitely get a good grade if you do what she tells you to do. she is awesome and i love her classes so much!
Sister Lemon is the best Chem 101 teacher out there! She is way chill and cares about her students more than most! It is a lot of work but as long as you go to her review hours and do the homework you should be fine!
She did a great job teaching and helping the students understand the material taught in the course. I would definitely take a class from her again.
Sister Lemon tries to make chemistry as enjoyable as it can be. Chem is not my strong suit at all, and I took it when things were moved online. She provided plenty of videos, and homework. HW is not turned in for a grade but if you don't do it exams will be hard! Your grade is based on quizzes and exams. So don't fall behind and you'll be okay.
This class was very frustrating. I felt this teacher never cared. She never responds to emails in a timely manner. Whole class is based on tests & quizzes. I had to go elsewhere to learn the material, and never went to office hours in fear of being embarrassed by asking a "dumb question". I do not recommend taking this class.
Very good class, Sister Lemon is a very good teacher, she makes a tough subject fun.
I was a little annoyed because Sister Lemon treats everyone like babies. She records 3 lectures to go over a simple subject that another professor would cover very quickly. I wasn't learning the material at all. I emailed me for help and she was rude.I felt very stupid by her replies. I took it from another professor and got an A. Waste of time.
I took this class online and it was a complete mistake. It was the hardest class I have ever taken and I would never take it from her again. If you are, good luck.
If you are online and want to pass Chemistry and actually learn something take it from Sister Lemon! She has prerecorded the lectures so you can go back and rewatch whenever. She simplifies and gives amazing tips. She replies to emails right away and is so sweet. Go to office hours if you have questions she makes time for everyones questions!
Sister Lemon was an AMAZING teacher! Her lectures were very easy to understand and it is super nice because they are recorded and you can go back to them at anytime. She has really fun ways to memorize the things you need to know and makes chemistry fun! Definitely recommend!
A sweetheart. Loved her! I failed chem the first time I took it, this time I got an A (I had less of a credit load but still). Do all the homework until you understand the problems, and you're all set! Love sister Lemon so much!
If you're not a Chemistry, or related field, major, I wouldn't recommend her as a teacher. If this is your field though, I would definitely recommend her. She knows her stuff, she knows how to teach, and she's fun, but her grading is extremely harsh as your quizzes and exams will be worth (actual math) 95.5% of your grade.
In terms of the lectures she does a good job at teaching the material through videos. The thing with her class is that she makes no exceptions for any reason. She also offers no extra credit opportunities, and doesn't seem to care too put too much emphasis in teaching anything. She relies heavily on the pre recorded lectures.
Sister Lemon is a phenomenal professor!! She wants her students to succeed and is there for you. Sister Lemon makes chemistry fun and easy. She prepares her students so well for the quizzes and exams. If you watch all the lectures, do the homework, study and go to office hours youll do great in her class.
This course is naturally a very difficult course, but the professor didn't help. She was pretty hands-off the whole time. She posted videos that were recorded a long time ago and directed most student concerns to the tutors. If you want a professor who actively participates and communicates with their students, I wouldn't recommend this professor.
Because it's online, it makes gaining a connection harder, but she rarely responds to emails & doesn't have a reliable route of communication. She uses lectures that were prerecorded years ago, so it isn't up to date but has good explanations. Teaches new material the day before the exam, so start reviewing before the end of the unit.
Not willing to work with her students, and only responds when you comment on the pre-recorded lecture videos. If you want a teacher who will answer your questions without making you feel stupid, don't take chem from her. And if you get behind in anything, just forget it. She won't help you.
Suppose to be a zoom class but it isn't all the lectures are prerecorded and need updating. She does not respond to email, and will NOT HELP you so don't bother reaching out. Extremely unsympathetic and cares little for success of students. Would give a zero if I could. Don't take classes from her.
I honestly loved Sister Lemon!!! I have heard mixed opinions about her but I think she is great! If you are someone that needs/likes a lot of help from professors, you might want to find someone else. If you like flying solo this class will be perfect for you!! Her lectures are so clear and organized that you probably wont need a ton of help.
We were given prerecorded lectures from over a year ago to try to learn from. She was difficult to communicate with via email and disrespectful when responding to my Perusall comments. This class pushed me to tears at least twice a week. Despite being excited to take the course in the beginning, I had to drop it for these, and many other, reasons
Do not do her online course All pre-recorded Only quizzes and tests count for your grade so if you have test anxiety or you are just bad at taking tests your in for a bad time. Her office hours are only open for and hour on Tuesdays and Thursdays that's only 2 hours a week. Its just like watching YouTube. She wants you to figure it out by yourself
My class was supposed to be a remote/virtual class. It is not! She doesn't actually teach or hold class; she wants you to watch videos which are several years old and have not been updated. She is hard to get in contact with, but responds to comments on the videos. I've had some concerns I asked to meet with her about; she said to go to the tutor.
Be prepared to teach yourself She doesn't offer any help Her virtual class is just prerecorded lectures from Covid. My friend taking the class w/me had an error with Proctorio on her test and she couldn't finish She reached out to Sister Lemon asking if she could let her finish the test Sister Lemon said no and ignored all of her emails afterwards
Lecture participation, quizzes, 5 tests and final heavily make up your grade. Do the homework. I never attended office hours because of schedule conflicts, but I practically lived in the tutoring center. It's a lot of material, but you can get an A if you work hard. Also, I never used a textbook since her lectures are pretty much all you need.
She explains things very well and multiple times to make sure the retention is better.
I loved Sister Lemon!! She's incredible at explaining things and walks you through numerous examples to make sure you've got the content down. I can't explain how amazing she is, and she made chemistry end up being way better than I originally anticipated!
Professor Lemon's class design is uniquely difficult. Her formative assessments are often more intimidating than the following summative. If you desire help from her, you cannot have it. You must reach out to a tutor in order have help. In times of need, she will not help you. In my experience this semester, she pretends to care about her students.
Honestly, I went to her multiple times for help but just sent me back to her videos that didn't help me.
Great teacher always there when u need help.
While Professor Lemon's class can be challenging, using unstuckstudy AI alongside the free textbook helped me stay on top of the content. The tutoring center was a lifesaver too.
I did not like her at all I ended up dropping the class. I took it fall of 2024 she had pre recorded lectures from 2020 and gave no wiggle room for pretty much anything. I emailed her multiple times and she only responded to one email on the 1st day and none after that. She was very difficult to work with and difficult to get in contact with.
This teacher used pre-recorded lectures and throughout the entire semester, the only time I felt I was learning was while doing homework with chat GPT and in the tutor reviews before the test. Tests were most the grade and they were very difficult. She didn't have much graded work, but her class seemed unorganized and success wasn't her priority.
