There is no way you can fail this class. She very helpful, if you don't understand she'll go over it until you do. There's 5 tests if time allows. Her labs are fun. If you read the book, her notes and answer questions in back of book. I can promise you'll get an A or B. I really learned alot.

This instructor is awesome. She sets you up to pass. If you can't pass her class then you'll have a hard time passing anyone's. She explains everything very well until you understand it. She give enough quizzes and tests so that you have room for error. She is fun and animated I think you'll enjoy.

An absolute must. She is a great teacher. She explains everything until you understand it. Pay attention to her, study her notes, ask questions if you must and you will pass with a good grade. She is an excellent teacher. I highly recommend her for any class she teaches.

totally awesome teacher! if you have hated any other chemistry class you have ever taken, take her, she will make you love it!! very easy going but she does expect you to study and listen really well. she even posts her lectures for you to print out.

Excellent instructor. Tests comes strictly from the book. Gives clear and concise lectures. Highly recommended. Test are multiple choice

as stated before great teacher helpful full of laughs. wished she taught bio & lab. would take her in a heartbeat if could. got A, but study and print off notes from website.

definitely take her. keeps going over material to make sure you understand. for someone that never took chemistry, she made sure it was broken down for first timers. she is a must!!

Miss Schoene is the best. She makes learning chemistry very interesting and easy. However, she has a tendency to call you out in class if she thinks you are asking a stupid question. Overall, I would highly reccommend her, just save your questions till after class.

A great instructor and a motivator, teaches with passion and clearity.

Great professor. Before I took Chem 1152, i was so nervous about Chemistry because I made a C in 1151.When I decided to take Chem 1152, Ms. Schoene made it so easy with her powerpoint presentations and she has given me a great outlook on Chemistry now.....

She is a great teacher, I had to withdraw from Chemistry before because is was intimidating and made me cry. I thought I had to give up nursing. Ms. Schoene made it clear for me and I love her for that.

She helps chemistry actually relate to you.. She loves to have fun with the material and LOVES opera!!! She a blast and I wished she taught more classes:)

She makes it understandable. Would recommend her to anyone, at anytime. Study her presentations and read will definitely pass.

The absolute best. Her teaching style and clarity makes the subject interesting. She goes over and beyond to make sure you know what you need to know. You can e-mail her and she'll get back with you ASAP. She may even give you a call to go over and make sure your question is answered. Don't get it twisted. You have to do your part too....STUDY

I thought she was very difficult and hard. At the end, she is one of the best and the sweetest lab instuctors at Decatur. Decatur has many great instructors that she is one of them. She makes you to work hard in lab and has quizzes from reading Assignment. Quiz is very easy if you read reading Assignment. You can make easy easy A if you pay attenti

God bless the Ms Schoenes of he world. She is one of the best instructors I've ever had. Chemistry is not an easy subject,but she makes it interesting. Her style of teaching is witty and animated, yet she keeps it real. She relates the material to everyday life and gives examples that allow you to grasp the material, You'll find yourself saying Oh!

she is the best teacher i have ever had. i did not like chemistry until i went into her class. trust me when i say 'take her, she is the best'. you will have to do little bit os studying but thats in any class.you will make a good gread.

Ms.Schoene is the best! If you enjoy learning and being entertained Ms. Schoene is the instructor you need. If you have math anxiety take this course. The power point presentations are awesome and very helpful.

The best organic teacher you will ever have. If you can do your best to take her. Very helpful and will make class very interesting.

Ms. Schoene is the best teacher i have had. She makes the class fun and enjoyable. I was taking this class to make sure i wanted to do forensic science as a career, and now i definately want to pursue this. She brings in her own experience to the class. She is definately the best teacher out there. Take her for either Chemistry or forensic science.

Ms. Schoene is an awesome lecturer, she brings life and enthusiasm to the class teaching. She is extremely helpful if you are a consistent student who shows the eagerness to learn. She alots you her teaching slides after each class, and I think that is enough to pass her class. I must say I only missed one day in her class. She is wonderful.

Prof. Scheone was very easy going. I actually learned taking this class. She was very helpful and offered a lot of resources for practice. Her tests questions came mostly from practices in the text and in class. Just pay attention!!!!

Ms. Schoene is by far the best D--n instructor I've had since attending GPC. Her teaching style is unique. Review her power point lectures a little everynight and you will make an "A". She is what teaching is all about. In my opinion she's TEACHER OF THE YEAR! To you Ms. Schoene . . . WWOD! Thanks

Ms. Schoene is a great professor. She explains everything thoroughly and it's very hard to be confused with the subject matter. She's great! Oh and she LOVES Oprah...so expect to have her included in the lectures!

Ms. Schoene is energetic and she is nice but don't expect a curve. My best advice is to come out of the gate w/ flying colors because the tests get harder as you go along. You do not want to go into the final coming from behind. I would still recommend her though. She's cool.

good but u gotta be ready for some attitude.pay attention in lab or she will get frustrated! has a high voice so u cannot sleep i her class. but FUN MUST STUDY UR BUTT OFF

she is amazing. not an easy A, but she explains well and she does not curve. lots of pre-lecture quizz on webct,(not hard if you have the textbk). you definately have to study but her test are not hard, if you study. definately take her.

She is a great teacher, very nice and helpful. However try to avoid "stupid questions" during class. She doesnt curve or drop but the tests are not hard. Study and look over powerpoint.

She is a wonderful teacher even though she DOES NOT believe in extra credit.she does care and is willing to help.You have to really work for your grade. it is not easy at all

She teaches this class as if this was ur first time taking chemistry. She is the bomb!! Makes chemistry very interesting!

Ms. Schoene is the most helpul chemistry instructor that I have ever met in GPC. She is always willing to help her student to understand the concept of chemistry. She will not just hand you an easy A. However, she re-enforces her student to perform extremely well in her class. She teaches chemistry I as if you have never been taught chemistry befo

VERY HELPFUL.She explains ovr and ovr until she feels that u understand. U have to ask for her help and be willing to learn

SHE IS A GREAT TEACHER THE BEST. MAKE SURE U GET HER LAB CLASS CUS U WILL GET MADE IF U GET ANOTHER TEACHER OTHER THAN HER. IF U WANNA UNDERSTAND AND NOT TAKE THE CLASS AGAIN. SHE IS THE BEST CHOICE.

YOU COULDN'T ASK FOR A BETTER TEACHER. VERY HELPFUL AS LONG AS YOU ARE DOING YOUR PART AS WELL. DON'T LOOK FOR SHORTCUTS, THAT WILL NOT WORK IN HER CLASS. STUDY HARD AND VISIT HER DURING OFFICE HOURS AND YOU WILL BE FINE. I AM TAKING ORGO II NOW AND I AM VERY DISSATISFIED WITH THE QUALITY OF THE LECTURE.

Ms. Schoene is really nice. She is a really good teacher and willing to help. Take advantage of the test objectives,PLEASE! Don't keep interrupting her while she is speaking or ask dumb questions, she has a low tolerance for that.

this teacher is the BOMB thats how hot she is. I wish so bad that she taught more than just chemistry. She has a passion for what she teaches. She catches your attention with every thing that she says. If you dont get it she repeatly will tell you to come to her office. She is awsome. If you dont take her you are nuts!Best teacher at Decatur

Prof. Schoene is EXCELLENT. She caters to all learning styles. Take if you want to learn and really understand chemistry

what an awesome teacher! She relates chem to everyday concepts. She is not easy you will have to study but her powerpoint notes are outstanding and on point with her exams. She will go over and over things until you get it and makes herself available if you don't understand, via e-mail or office hours. All teachers should follow her lead!

Ms Shaney does her part and you must do yours. Hard work will earn a passing grade. No extra credit opportunites, but excellent teacher who is always prepared and goes out of her way to make lectures intersting and fun.

Great teacher.very funny(loves oprah).organized.very possible 2get an A.teaches u like u never heard of chemistry.extra outside class time.so nice/laid back.just do the problems after each chapter,they will be on the test.a mini quiz given daily(dailyreflection)on what u learned the previous day.pwrpnts are the test.attend class and form study grps

Ms. Schoene is the absolute best Chemistry professor to grace the face of this planet. She breaks down hard Chemistry concepts into easy and understandable pieces. She is incredibly helpful and makes sure that everyone in the class understands something before moving on. She also creates a fun environment, making you WANT to come to class. Take her

Great teacher.Enjoyed being in her class. Very possible to get an A. Make sure to do questions at the end of chapters and ask questions. She is very willing to give extra time to help after class. Best professor.

Prof Schoene is very nice. She breakS down the materials in class very simplY, However, you just cannot pass her test because she does not stick with the information that she gives you in the text book. It is sad that you understand in class, but you cannot pass the test.

The best professor EVER!!!!!Must take her. She is very nice, helpful and makes the material easy to understand. Read the chapters, do the exercise problems and you will get a good grade.Ms. Shoene is AWESOME and she loves ophera

Well Ms. Schoene is one the sweetest lady at gpc you will ever met . She gives out plenty of study guides/ powerpoint lect for you to study on. Also gives out alot of extra credit too. Just a word from the wise her class is really easy the way she teaches it but u have to put time into it so, try to limit ur sehedule to no more than four classes.

I took her for lab and received a B...She is a stickler for mistakes made in lab manual...so take your time and complete your work in notebook BEFORE you put it in the manual. Overall enjoyable and a very professional teacher. MAKE sure that you attend every class on time.

Very interesting and helpful!!! Awesome!!!

IF U WANT TO PASS CHEMISTRY AND GET ON WITH YOUR LIFE...TAKE HER CLASS...SERIOUSLY...THIS IS NO JOKE

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED HER CLASS AND HER LAB... SHE IS VERY HELPFUL AND UNDERSTANDING.. AND HAS A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR.. BUT IF U DONT STUDY AND DO THE LAB REPORTS.. U WILL NOT PASS.. I RECOMMEND HER TO EVERYONE!!!!

TAKE HER! SHE IS THE BEST CHEM TEACHER THERE IS. SHE IS VERY HELPFUL AND UNGERSTANDABLE. RECOMMEND 100%.

She is am awesome professor!!! She really makes it interesting to learn chemistry and makes it easy to learn. You do have to do your part and that is study. I highly recommend you to take her class.

Ms Schoene is an GREAT teacher. SHe knows her stuff and she is enthusiastic about it. She is very friendly towards everyone. I got A+ in both lecture and Lab. I cant see how anyone could fail this class but there were several people in the class that did. If you do the suggested problems that she recommend you will ace her test no doubt.

Ms. Schoene is great. I had never taken a Chemistry course in my life and was worried about my performance but she comes with enthusiasm for the subject and is readily available to help. Even had bootcamps the day of exam (some i didn't study for but HELPED big time) Got and A in Lab and B in lecture...Be sure to be prepared for class and ure gud

She is a great professor. When taking her class, you will learn something, and I learned a lot. Please read the chapters, listen to her lectures, come to class and participate and you will have no problems. I took her class over the summer semester and I will have to say that she is easily understood and easily approachable.

This by far was the best Chemistry teacher I had ever had. She explains everything in great detail and doesnt move on unless everyone gets the information. I would highly recommend her. Do as she ask and study and you can get an A

MELISSA SCH0ENE IS BY FAR 0NE 0F THE BEST INSTRUCT0RS. SHE KN0WS HER MATERIAL AND TEACHES IT VERY WELL. T00K HER FALL 2009, I DID RECIEVE AN 'A' IN B0TH LECTURE && LAB, BUT IT WAS N0T GIVEN. SHE D0ES N0T GIVE Y0U GRADES, Y0U MUST EARN THEM! I WILL TELL Y0U, C0ME T0 CLASS, PAY ATTENTION, D0 SUGGESTED PROBLEMS && R E A D!

BEST TEACHER EVERRR!!! She knows her stuff and will help you to the end. READ,GET HELP & COME TO CLASS ONTIME..gives pop quizzes.Gotta love her she is great and loves what she does!!!!

I love Ms Schoene. Just read the chapter before class and work your suggested problems after her lecture. And you will pass her class with an A+.

She is absolutely THE best teacher EVER!!!!!! She is just amazing!!! You need to come to class prepared though. She does not like to answer stupid questions.. she doesn't have the patience nor the time. She makes herself available. She is fun, smart and makes chemistry easy (if you study hard). Love her!!!! Got an A+.

SHE ROCKS!!! THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST TEACHER I HAVE EVER HAD. SHE HAS AN AMAZING TEACHING SKILLS AND IS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND STUDENT ORIENTED. TAKE HER AND YOU WILL BE SURPRISED HOW GOOD SHE IS.

Very nice teacher...Lots of energy..teaches from pp and she teaches exactly what will be on the exam and some of her examples will be used on the exam. She always start ON Time...she hate tardiness. As long as u study u should get an A or B..i got an A it was 5 A's in our class ...mostly B's..she drop the lowest test and quiz grade..i reccomend he

She is an example of a true teacher. She has passion for teaching the subject and she takes pride in knowing that all the students who are willing to learn, are learning. I took her for 1151 and 1152(L). Work all problems, do all assignments, and READ the text and powerpoints. She is not just a scientist, but a teacher! I would recommend her.

This woman is absolutely crazy, but she can teach Chemistry with her eyes closed and and hands crossed. Do not ask any questions in class, becasue "you are using up her class time" that you should have used reading your book. I have an A so far, but thats because I studied till my bank went dry and didnt ask any questions in class.

Ms. Schoene is passionate about what she teaches! The energy and dedication she puts into every lecture amazes me. Her powerpoints are pretty cool & she brings in functional examples to what she's teaching. She may seem tough, but she just wants her students to work hard and do well. I've learned a lot from her. She's an incredible professor.

Loved her Chemistry class,she's really clear and concise. She puts up all kinds of helpful info (including lectures) before class so that you come to class "confused". She will not baby you, so if you're one of those needy students who just loves to take up class time asking redundant questions, she's not for you!

Prof. Schoene Simply the Best!!! Better than all the rest! She teaches with Passion and shows compassion with all her students in and out of class. Come to her class confused and leave her class with clarity. She simply tests you on what she teaches and doesn't attempt to confuse you. She's just as Awesome during her Labs. TAKE HER!!!

Prof. Schoene Simply the Best!!! Better than all the rest! She teaches with Passion and shows compassion with all her students in and out of class.

Mrs. Schoene, what can I say, she knows her stuff! The material is NOT easy however If you study and study hard you can pass her class with an A. Read the chapter before class, follow along with her PP during class, and study from her study guide to prepare for the test. With All this preparation you will be rewarded with an A.

Ms. Schoene is an amazing teacher. I'm not going to say that this class is easy, but it is by far one of the best classes I've had. She presents the information in a way that's interesting and informative. I would have never gotten through chemistry without her. Coming to class confused and reading the book and power points is necessary.

This professor is the best and by far one of my favorite.she has a lot of passion for teaching. Very smart and helpful. Make that you come to class confuse;meaning read each chapter before coming to class,even if it doesn't makes sense when you read and trust me you will leave with so much clarity. She uses mastering chemistry for homework which if you are smart will go to the tutoring center and get some help. I got 100% plus all the bonus point. I just took her and got an A.

Great and crystal clear lecturer. She can make a hard concept seem easy. She was my chemistry lab teacher, and I wish she had also been me chemistry teacher.

Great Teacher ! shes good at explaining everything to the T. she made chemistry easy.

SHE IS GODS GIFT TO THE STUDENT WORLD. take her class if you want to experience a true educator. no, its not easy (because its chemistry) but this woman breaks it down and LOVES CHEMISTRY so it makes listening to her for months a lot more exciting. TAKE HER CLASS

Professor Schoene is by far the best professor I have ever had. She gives you all the tools for success and if you utilize them, you can get an A or B. She teaches chemistry as if you have never taken it before. Only complaint is she can be intimidating when asking questions.

Maybe she used to be easier but some questions on her exam can be confusing. Also while attendance may not be mandatory, she gives pop quizzes at the beginning of class and if you are late you receive a zero. She gave a quiz "I was here at 10" when half the class was late (traffic jam). She also doesn't drop a test. Would not take her again.

Ms. Schoene was awesome. I took her Spring 2010. Coming to class confused helped alot bcuz she clarified things during class. She even has study groups and she encourages you to come see her in the office. I recommend her. Im going to take her for 1152. Just study pp and make sure u memorize what she asks u 2. Bubbly & enthusiastic personality. :)

Awesome, motivational and clear about what she expects of students. If you attend class (on time!) and take notes, you should have no problem with the tests - gives study guides and usually has a day of review before tests. Funny too - you won't be bored in class.

Best Chemistry teacher. Breaks things down in multiple ways for even the dunce to understand. Super high energy, funny and pretty cute too! She lays out her expectations crystal clear and is much more obliging if you ask questions during lecture than after. I am taking her again, she's great

Schoene's awesome. Is it hard, yes...it's chemistry people. But you won't find a better professor for the subject. USE HER STUDY GUIDES, don't ask a question unless you know its a good one and be on time. Quizzes daily, but not hard and will help you learn. She's funny and teaches it like you've never seen it before. TAKE HER.

Schoene is the freaking best!!!! The class is hard, there is no denying that. If you use her study guides you should do fine! She teaches like you've never had the material! She is amazing. Daily reflections every class but they are simple and just goes over what you learned the class before!! TAKE HER!! It's hard but she is the best!

TAKE HER. Easy A. I NEVER had CHEM. 1st day she states she's going to teach CHEM as if you've never seen/heard of it before AND SHE DOES!Omits lots of hard stuff that you don't need. USE HER STUDY GUIDES and POWER POINTS. If it's not on the study guide, DON'T STUDY IT! Be ON TIME, DON'T MISS CLASS. All SIMPLE multiple choice tests.

BEST TEACHER. Class starts on time, so BE ON TIME. EASY Daily reflections at the START of every class. Biggest mistake is to FALL BEHIND due to not Reading BEFORE class. READ BEFORE CLASS, READ BE4 CLASS, READ BE4 CLASS! She won't cover things you don't need even if other classes are! DON'T MISS ANY CLASSES. Breaks the material down real life.

THE BEST SCIENCE TEACHER AT GPC!!I took her for lab only during the Summer and I took the lecture online with another professor. Taking her lab helped me understand what was going on in the lecture. She doesn't expect you to know everything coming into her class, she teaches as if you never seen chemistry before.

Easy A even if Chemistry is not your favorite subject. Professor MS knows her stuff and cares about her students learning and understanding. Do easy questions before lab, be on time,have lab notebook ,listen during prelab= EASY A. her midterm and final is even easy and she tells you exactly what will be on them.TAKE HER CLASS AND YOU WONT REGRET IT

Awesome professor!!!

WOW!! She is just the BEST. If u want to learn , take her.I took her Lab class and learned a lot.But expexct too much work .3 separate reports for each lab class.online, pre-lab and the traditional lab report ,and of course u need lab notebbok too.Mid exam,about 50 write and fill int he blank questions.If u procrastinate,pls take other lazy teachr

Prof Shaney is good at keeping your attention even at 7 AM come to class prepared (she wants you to be confused when you come and leave class understanding)she uses real-life examples that really help - she teaches as if you've never taken CHEM before - you have the added bonus that she is funny, but she does make you work so be prepared

SHE IS AWESOME ! MADE AN A IN HER CLASS !

Ms. Schoene is the best chemistry teacher I ever had. She teaches in a way that you never learned it before but leaves with an understanding of the material. Her study guides and notes are the best! She's funny, always on time, and makes sure everyone is on the right track! I wish I can take her for other chemistry classes You guys would not regret

I love Professor Schoene!! She is clear when explaining labs and other chemistry related assignments. She is not a hard grader at all. I had her labs first thing in the morning and she made the labs very interesting and fun. I used to hate chemistry with a passion but i am starting to like it and enjoy learning about it.

She is the best!!! She makes Chemistry easy to understand. Study her power points and study guides and you will get an easy A. great sense of humor and makes learning fun. I definitely recommend taking her for Chemistry 1151.

She was a good professor. Her test are so similar to the study guides. If you do the study guide and practice the suggested problems to do then you will get an A on her test. Very funny and is willing to help.

She's basically Ellen (with looks and personality). But her class is hard but she is the best tutor and very willing to help you. DO NOT SKIP HER CLASS!!!!

Take this class

Excellent teacher! She gives study guides that are EVERYTHING you need for the test. The homework is the same online work due after each chapter. I HIGHLY recommend!!!!

She is a absolutely Amazing. First professor that made enjoy and understand Chemistry. I 1000% recommend her. She's acting and funny. She loves her birds and the sun rise. Other than that she explains everything in a way for you to understand. She's the bomb

Dr. Schoene is the absolute best. Her lectures are easy to follow and she makes sure you understand the material before actually moving on to something else. She provides homework, but if you follow lectures and read textbook there is absolutely no way you can fail. She provides practice test, and she is an amazing teacher! TAKE HER! u will learn!!

She posted lectures that made everything so easy to understand. Her tests were only over basic, easy concepts (never got below a 95). She is hands down an amazing teacher. I took her for both lecture and lab; would undoubtedly take her again for any class, given the chance.

I have her for both lecture and lab, 1000000% recommended. She definitely the best professor I ever had, she give no extra credits but all her test from the powerpoint and pay attention during her class, easy A. Homework on Chem101, 4 tests, 2 acs final for lecture. As long as you study her powerpoint and watching her videos, youll pass with A.

Amazing professor. She made me fall in love with organic chemistry. I definitely recommend her class.

I loved Dr Schoene, she was absolutely amazing I had her for 1151 and 1152 and she is very organized, knows how to properly lecture and articulate difficult concepts. She always provided good feedback and as long as you pay attention in class, read and follow her quality PowerPoint I don't see how anyone can do bad. Love her!!

Take her classNever thought chem would be so enjoyable&I only had her lab.Knows how to talk to students,grades are always timely,and makes the midterm and final easy for students. Labs are fun,not difficult to do the questions. Prelabs weren't time-consuming,but interesting and helpful. Made me consider majoring in it.Great person amazing professor

She is the best chemistry professor. Everything she teaches is super clear and easy to understand. I took her for CHEM1152, which includes a lecture and lab. TAKE HER!!!

Easily the best professor I've ever came across. Her lecture and labs were very fun. She makes learning the material fun. Always helps. Responds to emails. Available outside of class (Webex). Loves what she teaches and makes others love it too. Amazing lecturer. If you want to enjoy chemistry, TAKE HER.

She's an amazing teacher you just have to lock in from day one. If you don't understand something, let her know right away because she's really helpful and wants everyone to succeed. Make sure you come to class and stay on top of the material. If you stay consistent and don't fall behind, the class is very manageable and you can do really well.
