She is a sweet teacher! She gives you a study guide for all the test so you always know what is going to be on the test. You get exempt from the exam if you go to class everyday. She also cancels class alot. The lab is fun!

dr. fry is the best chemistry teacher i've ever seen. he really cares about the students and takes alot of extra time with you to make sure you understand. anyone who does not do well in this class has no one to blame but them selves. because if you dont understand the material all you have to do is ask him for help and he will make sure you understand it for the test. the way i see it you cant blame a teacher for your own lack of effort.

They made a 2005 in the class.
Dr. Fry is an excellent teacher, he teaches you the material, but at the same time he makes his class fun, he's never boring. I got a lot out of his class for the reason that i enjoyed him, therefore i wanted to go to class and pay attention. I really enjoyed having him, he relates well with the students.

Dr. Fry was an awesome chemistry teacher... He is younger so he is more in touch with the students. He gave plenty of handouts and even gave the class candy on halloween. His study sessions were most helpful and his tests were exactly what he covered in class. I would recommend Dr. Fry to ANYONE

Dr. Fry Is a great professor. He goes over the material extensively and makes it fun. If you need help, Dr. Fry will spend all the time it takes to help you understand the topic. He makes Chemistry interesting. I would recommend Dr. Fry to any student.

He seems to want you to learn the material because everytime we had a test, he had a study period where he went over homework questions. The homework seemed a bit redundant because there was so much of it that he didn't plan on testing. Otherwise he's a normal, down-to-earth guy.

This class was completely boring. Everything he would spend everyday telling us the same stuff we could have learned in the book. He was helpful outside of class, but totally useless in the classroom. An aweful class to be in.

Dr. Frye spends way too much time lecturing us about subjects that have no relevance to Chemistry. Our class did not even cover all the material that was in the syllabus because of this. He uses profanity and insulting jokes as a way to try to be ""cool"" with his students, and doesn't realize that they are laughing at him, not with him. I think he needs to stick with a laboratory instead of a classroom--he's just not cut out to be a professor.

Dr. Fry is a good to have if you're taking Gen Chem. He's writes all the notes and explains if possible. Although sometimes when someone has a question and he doesn't quite understands, he tells them he'll get back to them. He is very helpful inside and outside of class. I would recommend him to anyone for General Chemistry.

Dr. Fry's class is very boring and his tests are poor reflections of material learned in the class.
He is always, however, willing to help any student who may be falling behind.

This teacher is young, informative, and fairly easy if you study. His tests are multiple choice. Part of the test is factual information, and part is comprehensive. You must study in order to pass this course, and you must attend class regularly because he gives pop quizzes. At first sight this teacher seem to be incompetent because he seem nervous, but time prove he's a good chemistry teacher. One slight problem: There were times when he was ask questions and it seem like he didn't quite know the answer, but that was only about two times. (Every teacher has their bad days.) I recommend this teacher for Chemistry. He also gives study sessions out of class.

dr. fry is a good teacher in my opionin. chamistry is hard and i understand that but he explains it pretty good. the good thing about him is that he explains things and then if you don't understand he'll try to explain it another way until you understand. also he spends a lot of time outside of class helping his students (and i'm not talking ridiculous office hours like other teachers). at least twice a week he has study session, on his own time, and he gives handouts with everything you need to know on them. his tests are pretty straight forward, even though there is always a challenge question on it that is usaully not directly what we covered.-
