by far the worst professor ive ever had... i hate her with a passion

By far the worst teacher I have ever had. She has the most unprofessional manner in dealing with her students. She is very sarcastic, rolls her eyes at questions, calls students remedial, and also said "Bite Me" to one of her students. I hate he

Horribly painful course that should not be taken unless necessary.

she is the devil...enough said

She doesn't make sene in lectures, gives more homework that she can grade, is not prepared for class, and does not lecture in a coherent way. She is under the impression that pchem is the only class that everybody is taking.

As a person, she is friendly, but as a teacher, she is horrible. She shows up to class 15min late. Her lectures barely skim the meat of the material. Everything that is learned is by the text and not her. She leaves her mathematical derviations half done and skips to the next part without explaining the jump. She just cannot break the concepts

CH109 is hard enough as it is, but she makes it even more difficult with her estoric lectures. She makes the simplest problems hard and it's absolutely frustrating. To make matters worse, she seems equally as lost as the students half the time. I am a BMB major but this first chem course has forced me to rethink my major.

All I can say is WTF.... and why did our chemistry midterm involve WWII ?

This woman has no ability to convey information, lead a team of teachers, or create effective assessments (tests). In other words, she is totally unqualified for this position. Her ignorance and complete apathy towards the quality of class is astounding.

HE SUCKS~ not worth taking her class. Try as hard as possible to avoid her! She is terrible at lectures, gets confused and explains it incorrectly. At times she asked the students to remind her because she was confused. Go to lectures because she sometimes gives pop quiz and attendance, if not for that .. dont!

Her lectures are incoherent. Read the book and go to office hours, it's the only way to learn the material. Go to lectures for possible significant announcements, but you probably won't get anything from them otherwise.

prof. rosi has taught me that "chemistry is magical". she stares/ smiles at all her students in a creepy way and we have a tally system for how many times she does this, i'm winning. she has the gift of making whole lectures of students fall into a stupor while teaching nothing. reading the book helps if u r literate, but she wont b/c rosi=poop

Her lectures are all over the place and pretty much impossible to follow. She likes to focus on one thing for an hour and another for two minutes. The class would have been a lot harder without a good TF. Be prepared to put in a lot of work outside of class. All in all, she is crazy but her class was fair.

Worst professor I've had at BU thus far. Lectures are useless and people don't show up. Because of this, she once gave 4 pop quizzes in a row. Tests are straight forward. Probably because she can't come up with harder problems. You will question whether she knows what she is saying. Elliot is a god and Georgiadis is as far from one as possibl

She is a terrible professor. She feels the need to remind you what day it is every single class as if you showed up by mistake. She constantly makes mistakes and doesnt seem to know what is going on. She actually said that many of the students would know more about what she was lecturing on than she did. Avoid her.

The most arrogant woman you will ever encounter. She has no idea what she is lecturing about. I had to correct her during lecture four times, and I was one of the quiet ones.Office hours are useless-took her 45 minutes to explain ONE problem from the exam b/c she kept making mistakes solving it. May the lord be with you if you take this class.

Georgiadis is a horrible teacher and incredibly arrogant!! She has no idea what she is saying and her lectures are useless. She is late to class and sometimes doesn't even show up. Beware of frequent pop quizzes. Just do all of the HW problems and you will survive her craziness.

i never thought a woman like her could become a professor. she constantly makes mistakes, her lectures are disorganized, and her voice is painful to listen to because she's so arrogant. however, a few times she's been surprisingly reasonable about grading. the lectures are not very worth going to, except she often gives annoying quizzes

Well she gives me hope, if she can become a professor, then I can become anything I want. I've never seen a Ph.D make so many mistakes in my life. Not only can she not write an equation properly, but she can't even explain concepts properly. In class, simple concepts are taught, on the exam, beware, there are only 5 questions.

RUN AWAY FAST! DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSORS CLASS! She is so incredibly arrogant and condescending that she makes you want to die just so you dont have to hear her voice any longer. She does not know her stuff and cannot teach. She makes mistakes left right and center. It is safe to say she is a terrible teacher.

Do NOT take her lecture. First of all she is really dumb. Yet, it is remarkable how condescending she can be. She is very rude to students who answer questions incorrectly. If it weren't for the mandatory lecture quizzes, I would not go. I would recommend taking 109 instead, because 101 is tedious with too much pointless homework and bad professors

DON'T CHOOSE HER ANYWAY!!!!!SHE IS THE WORST PROFESSOR I HAVE EVER MET....

Terrible lectures - gets very behind so you won't cover as much material as other sections which is a problem both in your discussions sections on tests. Can't stay on track or answer questions clearly. If you don't do something her way, she doesn't think it's right, even if you got the right answer. Clearly does not want to be teaching gen chem.

She is the most horrible teacher I have ever had. She cannot teach, and usually has no idea what she is talking about. She stops mid sentence because she realizes that what she is saying is wrong. Do not take her unless you really have to.

Worst professor ever, doesn't explain anything just expects you to know the topics.

honestly the worst professor ever. Talks to fast and often confuses herself. Doesn't finish half of her sentences. Not clear about anything

She is a very smart lady but does not know how to dumb topics down for her students. She gets flustered all the time & derives formulas wrong. She is not afraid to call you out in class & embarrass you. Less than 50% of the class gets the clicker questions correct. There are about 530 students in the course in total & only 66 in HER lecture.

Has a talent for making simple concepts difficult. I suggest you make friends with the tf and live in office hours. It's sort of like cheating because you're not doing anything on your own, but that's the path you need to take to do well (especially if you didn't already learn most of it in high school.) It's even called 'hard work' around here.

Awful teacher and rude at office hours.

Good researcher, ok person, terrible prof. Problems with tech (mics and powerpoints) plagued literally every lecture, answers questions with questions, doesn't finish half her sentences, often says things that are incorrect and only realizes when called out. Maybe if you love chem and you're great at it you'll love her, but for anyone else-DON'T!

She is not helpful at all. For someone who had credits for this class but still chose to take it anyways, I had difficulty understanding the things she taught. Very poor, not suitable to teach a complicated subject like chemistry.

CH101 is already a hard class but Georgiadis makes it even harder. I had to watch other professor's online lectures during the whole semester so I could understand the material.

DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS. Especially if you do not have a strong chemistry background. Plus office hours do not help.

The lectures were hard to follow and left me even more confused than when I got there. I went to office hours and was told I was going to fail (I guess she was right lol) also can be a little rude/condescending when helping.

Some people are gifted teachers and others aren't. Professor Georgiadis is a strong example of the latter. She is an incredibly intelligent woman, but cannot teach for the life of her. The reason she is a teacher at all, much less at BU, escapes me. She absolutely cannot explain things, is never prepared for lecture, and is overtly rude to students

most professors will say that "A" leads to "B". Prof. Georgiadis takes her students on an adventure; she will go from "A" to "G" to "R" to "X" to "Z" and back to "H" and then to "E" and maybe you will get to "B" if you are lucky

You would think that having personally designed this course and teaching it for years, Georgiadis would be an amazing lecturer - unfortunately, she isn't. Avoid going to her office hours - she'll just trap you there for hours, making sure to subtly belittle your intelligence. She gets angry at you for following the TF's instructions as well.

Absolute worst. Can't teach for her life. She teaches CH109 Prelab and is supposed to prepare us for lab. Instead she rambles on for the 75 minutes about anything except lab. She had talked about Greek olive oil, unrelated chemistry, and things way over our head. She uses TopHat which counts as participation, so go to lecture. Would not recommend.

Also had her for CH109. Still terrible. Georgiadis does not teach in prelab and obviously does not communicate with TFs, the grading is so unclear and unfair. Never any feedback provided. Go to prelab in case there are TopHat questions, which is a program she can barely use. And don't go to office hours she just rambles and makes you feel stupid.

One of the worst classes I ever took. Class average was always in the 40's. She told us she can and will fail us. She did hold office hours but was rude to students. At the end of the course she did curve grades but very stressful and learned almost nothing!

CH303 is the most frustrating, disorganized class I have ever taken. She does not effectively communicate assignments which always leads to much confusion, there is no syllabus, and lab procedures are often not uploaded until less than an hour before the start of lab. The one plus is that she is very flexible about deadlines and extensions.

Horrendously disorganized. It's a day before my final and we still have no syllabus. She expects you to read her mind and know that she uploaded something up to the cloud. When you ask questions during lab, the answers change constantly. This is both the worst class and worst professor I've ever had at BU, and I usually do well in chemistry.

Really disorganized class. I liked the material taught in CH303 a lot I just wish it was taught differently. The lab skills that you learn are actually useful for getting internships/jobs, and the class isnt really hard at all... just annoying

Condescending and rude. Inconsistent with grading. Goes on 45 min tangents about simple questions. Will keep you in OH for hours. Does not know how to work technology. Lectures are boring and irrelevant. Labs are long and repetitive. Expects students to turn things in on time while she cannot do the same. More like a 4 credit class than 2 credits.

Honestly, I have no clue what the point of this class is. The worst organized class I have ever been in...

Just don't. I still do not know what this class was for. It is utterly useless. Super disorganized and did not teach anything.

Worst of the worst Unprofessional associate professor asking students to be professional

WORST professor at BU. Never gives feedback. Her labs and lectures are very disorganized and unprofessional. All gradings are by preference and without any rubric. She is rude and condescending and never responds to emails. If you are Asian, don't think about taking this course. RACIST. CHEM department needs to examine her behavior in the course.

The worst professor at BU. Disorganized labs and lectures and unprofessional teaching behavior with serious racist actions. Never give useful feedback. Her grades depend on her preference for students. No matter how hard you work and even though you follow all instructions she said, if she dislikes you, you won't get a fair grade. Chose CH354,301.

Makes you feel awful for having the audacity to ask a question. Her pre-lab lectures were long and often didn't really relate to what the lab was ultimately about. If you have a chance to have literally ANYONE ELSE as a lab TF, take it and thank me later.

She was the only one in our lab section overseeing and would take extremely long coming up to students and I was nervous to even ask her a question in lab in fear of being wrong. Does not explain concepts well. I would 100% recommend finding another lab professor because this will make chem more miserable than it already is

I enrolled thinking Keying Chen was going to the teacher and was horribly wrong. From day one she has had a passive aggressive attitude, and many of us feared asking a simple question.

Georgiadis spent on average 30min yapping in the beginning of class. Not that helpful during lab, she would be angry at people asking her questions.
