Dr. Kocerha is a very nice teacher who is always willing to help! Quizzes are very detailed. Study EVERYTHING on the notes, even the little pictures. I recommend studying the powerpoints right after lecture every day.

Tests and quizzes very hard! Must memorize everything on power point slides. Do that and you'll get an A

She is a very kind woman and tries to help in everyday that she can but she is not a very good professor. She can not explain things very week and just made the class extremely confusing .

Very nice person!! She's not that great at explaining things and gets confused fast but no worries, this is a class you have to study on your own time. Do that and you can make an easy A.

I really enjoyed this class. Dr. Kocerha helped give us as many resources as possible to learn the material and course expectations. Super easy to understand, talks clearly and in organized way. It was also obvious she wanted us to not only do well in the class but in our future career as well.

Dr. Kocerha is probably one of the best professors I've ever had. She starts off each class with a slide stating what we should know by the end of semester. It keeps the class very focused and helps us to remember and look over specific concepts. She is super easy to understand when she lectures.

She is absolutely fantastic. I don't think I've ever had a professor who genuinely cared for her students so much and wanted them to succeed. Highly recommend!

Dr Kochera is an amazing professor. I questioned my interest in Chemistry until I took her class. I have found my career.

Here's the thing. She's super passionate about her work. She's also confusing. A huge thing you NEED TO KNOW is that her tests are applied understandings. What you learn in class you have to use to apply to the questions on the test. To be safe, do everything on Mastering Chemistry with extra thought and effort. It can make or break your grade.

I agree with those who said Dr. K is one of the best, she really is. She is so organized in her lectures and they are super clear to follow. I think the most important thing is I feel like I really understand the material because she explains things so well and makes sure we know the basics of what we are covering. Chemistry is something though

The labs and Mastering Chemistry WILL determine if you make an A or not. If you go to every class, pay attention, and take notes you will be absolutely fine. She drops the lowest test grade. 4 exams plus the final. She can be a little extra sometimes but as long as youre paying attention, mastering chem, and labs you'll probably make a solid A or B

Outstanding prof!!! Very clear, direct, and smart. She can connect different concepts during the middle of a lecture like no one I've ever seen. Only tiny negative, she's so nice that I wish she would stand up a bit more when students ask questions that are off topic or have already been discussed at length to save class time.

She is great! Our class didn't do really well on the first test and she worked with us to the point that our class average on the second test went up into the 80's, which I didn't think was possible. And, I never thought I'd be able to understand something like quantum #s, but she made it easy. She is one of the best professors at GSU.

I just took Biochem with Dr. K and she gives the most interesting, captivating lectures at GSU! LOVED LOVED this course. Biochem is a lot of work, but this was by far my favorite course at the university!!

Dr. K is my favorite professor at Georgia Southern University, I was struggling with bio-chem and she helped me get my grade up to an A

Her lectures aren't great but if you attend the SI sessions the class will be a breeze. Kocerha really does care about students success though and gives extra credit quizzes before every test. Her tests are very fair and are exactly what is covered in class. There's no textbook but you need Mastering Chemistry.

Excellent, if you really want to understand chemistry, Dr. K is the one to take. I never really understood chem before this semester and struggled. She works hard to try to make sure the students get the main points.

She is a very kind and caring women. Lectures are pretty good, mostly examples instead of notes. Does a good job explaining material and tests are exactly like the practice problems. Gets VERY flustered if asked a question in front of the class, if you have a question it is much better to write it down and ask after class or wait until SI.

Dr. Kocerha is a bit on the scattered side, but she is so great. Makes chemistry interesting and skips over the unnecessary things that we wouldn't ever need. Also, she gives great examples of problems that will be on her tests and she uses acronyms and shortcuts to help remember things that would otherwise be extremely difficult to memorize.

Dr. K is phenomenal !! You leave her course with a deep understanding of chemistry but also how to study more effectively. I wish I had her earlier in my education. Never have I had a professor who cared so much that I knew the fundamentals of the concepts taught.

Dr. Kocerha is such a sweet, genuine professor who not only wants her students to exceed in her class but learn a lot as well. Sometimes her lectures ramble, but you can tell she really strives to teach the material very well. She's very helpful and gives numerous opportunities for extra credit. Would 10/10 recommend her!!

Dr. K is one of the most kindhearted professors I've ever had. She truly cares about each and every student and wanted them to succeed. Her tests are not difficult and she gives many opportunities for extra credit. She often goes off on tangents during her lectures but she is a great teacher.

Dr. Kocerha is a great professor to have. If you come to her office, she is glad to help. Although attendance is not required, she will conduct in class work and sign in sheets at random for a grade. Do the mastering chemistry work, it helps alot!

Dr. K is a really good chem professor but chem isn't easy. Generally her lectures are problem based, so she helps you understand problems on the test. She drops lowest test grade, there are 4 test and a final. As far as homework, there are MC assignments before every test, which are directly related to test problems. Learn them and you'll do fine!!

She is the best . She doesnt want to see anyone fail and if you do then you have to try really hard to fail because she gives you a lot of opportunities and drops some grades. Class isnt mandatory but sometimes she gives assignments. My one tip is try your best to get an A on 3 of the 4 exams or at least 2 A s and a high B because she drops one.

Dr. K is a good Professor. She does the best she can to help students get good grades. She gives extra credit quizzes a week in advance online for the exams so you can get a couple bonus points, so do take advantage of those. Attendance was not mandatory but she did sometimes give in class work to turn in for participation grade.

Really great professor, I LOVED the review worksheets she made. They helped a lot to practice the concepts. A little scared of the final exam, but this course was well taught.

Dr. K is definitely my favorite science professor at GSU. This is the first time I've really understood chemistry.

Dr.K is a really helpful professor. She wants her students to pass and understand. If you need help with anything let her know and she will make sure you understand it.

I loved Dr. K's class, she is awesome!! My advice is really listen to what she tells you to study and practice and focus exam prep on that. Would 100% recommend.

This was my first semester at Georgia Southern University and Dr. K made it a great experience. I struggled at the beginning making the transition from high school to university level but she was so helpful. And, I really like the organization of her lectures, it was clear to follow.

Lecture is easy to follow and she makes it easy to understand a difficult subject! Lots of extra credit opportunities. Gives lots of practice problems to make sure we understand the work which is really helpful. would definitely recommend taking her!

I love how Dr. K provides us many worksheets and practice problems. Her lectures also have a good flow to them to make it easier to follow. She also starts of every lecture with a quick recap from the previous lecture which is super helpful.

Dr. K was an awesome professor. If you struggle with Chemistry, however, she doesn't seem to understand many questions you ask. Most of this course was plugging in variables though. She was very particular about making sure showing up to class is a big priority and having the correct calculator too, knit-picky but wants whats best for the student.

Definitely one of my favorite science professors at GSU. I just felt her lectures flowed really well, she connected topics when possible which was very helpful, lots of examples and worksheets. I truly understood the concepts, she breaks the material down in a way such that you really grasp it. Still a tough subject, but Dr. K is great.

Dr. Kocerha is a super sweet lady and truly cares about her students. She wants everyone to do well in her class and is VERY available for extra help if needed. Going to her class is not mandatory, but you will not learn if you do not go. She offers A LOT of extra credit and will most definitely work with her students.

Dr. Kocerha is a great professor that shows that she really cares for her students. She's very understanding towards people and, while at times can be a little off topic in her lectures, is the perfect teacher when it comes to easing into college life and classes.

Dr. K was a great professor to have for a freshman course. She tries to help her students the best ways possible. She holds multiple review sessions a week between her and the classes SI. Overall, if you make sure to study, practice the material, and use the resources she gives you the course shouldn't be too difficult.

Honestly I didnt attend many of the zoom lectures but I still did most of the work by looking over the powerpoints. There were half in person labs and half online ones. They were all pretty basic to understand and the tests are super easy if you attend her zoom reviews.

I am in Chemistry 1212 now and wish I would've made her my professor again! She moves fast, but if you watch the zoom lectures again you'll be fine. Half of the time I would not attend during the actual class time, so I could watch the recordings. Would definitely recommend her!

She is the best professor you can take for chemistry. She really cares about her students and wants them to do well in the class. Attendance isn't mandatory but she gives classwork that's graded. She works out problems in class that are just like the tests and quizzes. She also drops one of every graded assignment.

Summer minimester online. Easy A. Main eportfolio project due at the end. She separates it into sections due throughout course. Other papers like resume, cover letter, etc. assignments. Responds quickly to questions. Really helps discover who you want to be outside of college.

Dr K is awesome! I truly appreciated how she presented the material in a way that was understandable. She truly cares about the students really comprehending the material and the overall good scores on our exams reflected that.

Dr. K's were organized and made taking chemistry less stressful. She began lectures by recapping the previous lecture. She used worksheets as a guide for the lectures and exams. If you knew how to answer the worksheet and Knowledge Check questions, that was good preparation for the exams. I felt like I left this course really learning a lot.

Dr. K is truly an amazing and caring Professor. Very easy to understand her lectures, she gives us time to practice concepts in class, and her exams all come from lecture. She also provides worksheets for each chapter that we go over during lectures.

Taking a college chemistry course is scary, but Dr. K has a reassuring attitude throughout the semester. She routinely summarized the main course topics and gives time during lecture to practice concepts, and tells us not to be afraid to make mistakes during practce. Highly recommend Dr. K as probably one of the best Professors I've had so far.

She excelled as a professor, supporting student achievement by allowing the exclusion of the lowest test, lab, and quiz grades. Renowned for her compassion and empathy, she readily aids students navigating difficulties. Although not compulsory, attending lectures in person is recommended for in-person assignments.

SHE IS SO SWEET! Let me retake assignments I missed and also drops a quiz, test, and lab every semester. She is very caring and will help any student to work things out with their grade. Tests are pretty straightforward and similar to the homework and worksheets she gives out. Gives some credit on tests even if the answer is wrong.

Dr.Kocerha was very nice and gave you lots of material to work with. Despite her teaching to almost 100~ students she and her TA do a good job of trying to make sure everyone understands the material, and gives lots of extra chances / extra credit. She is very generous and great when it comes to understanding any problems you might have.

Dr K is one of the most organized and caring professors I've had. She has supplemental information and worksheets for each chapter, really emphasizes in lectures the overview of each topic, and gives us time during lecture to practice. She understands this is a course typically of first year university students and guides us accordingly

Dr. K did a great job helping our large class get back on track after several-hurricane related disruptions. Her worksheets and Knowledge Checks for each chapter prepared me well for the exams. She also made us brief study gudies after the hurricanes to further help students organize before the tests. Well structured course.

Definitely one of my favorite Professors, especially since I was anxious to take a university chemistry course. Dr. K was organized in our course materials, and made it clear what we would be tested on. You can tell she wants the best for her students and how to manage time and problem solving. Great lecturer with a calm attitude.

I had Dr. K for Chem 1211 and really wish I could of taken her again for Chem 1212, but she's teaching a different course. I'm not sure if I've ever had a Professor care so much about student learning. She even modified some of our labs to help us. Amazing person.

An amazing Professor. Does everything possible to help provide us practice questions and study guides for exam preparation. This class covers a lot of different topics but it's not too bad because of the worksheets and labs to help practice.
