She is a good teacher, she is a little old fashioned and is a bit of a stickler. I will take her again because I respect her.

She is a good teacher. Expects you to only know what she lectures. Covers a lot in the summer 5-week so be ready to keep up. B is easily attainable w/ labs

Hands down the best instructor you will have for organic chemistry at any college or university. This woman knows how to teach and somehow makes chemistry easy to understand. If you study 5-15 minutes before every lecture and keep up with lab, you will get at least a B in the class. Take Dockus if you want to learn something!

Excellent teacher. She takes a difficult subject and makes it MUCH easier to understand. She really knows what she is talking about. Hard tests, pop quizzes, some ex credit. She is very strict about being on time to the labs, and will kick you out if you are more than 5 minutes late. An A is difficult to get because you have to get 92 percent.

This teacher knows her stuff. Tells you exactly what you need to know. She is one of the best teachers in COD. Just listen in class and ask questions and also try to preread, it helps to know what she is talking about. I would recommend her, trautman is good too but he tends to ramble. Was really scared to take class, but got an A in the summer.

Difficult class and subject material but Dockus does a great job at breaking down material. Tests are difficult, definately study, but weekly quizzes are helpful to keep you on track. Lab is fun and she keeps the labs in sync with lectures so they are very helpful. Can be a bit hard on knowing old material but still helps out. Great teacher!

Comment:
She explains the concepts very well with her notes which are fairly easy to follow. The secret to her class is to study on a regular basis because she gives pop quizzes that cover notes discussed during the previous lecture.You can do well on exams if you go over notes along with using the textbook.For quizzes, just go over notes. Great teacher

Comment:
She actually does lecture well. I will give her that, but she is very rude just like Russel and Shih. Dockus has a bit of a god complex and gets off on making you feel and look stupid for any questions or mistakes. If you take her, remember that she is just a junior college instructor, and do NOT let her get to you, because she loves trying to.

if you like to suck up to the teacher TAKE THIS CLASS, otherwise run as far as you can. She puts you down, etc. I did very good in her class, but would never take her again. Her comments to students are very sarcastic and unproffesional. Once you on her bad site you don't have a chance to redeam.
