When you ask people who you want for ochem, everyone says Brian Esselman, but I promise you Degloper is MUCH better. She actually explains things and validates your questions. Brian gives a lot of attitude and not much actual information. Degloper feels like she's here to help you learn and is excited to answer questions when you ask.

Absolute sweetest professor ever. I had her for 103 and 343 and she is just the best! It is so clear that she cares about her students and genuinely wants everyone to understand and enjoy the course. I love that she is always so willing and happy to answer any and all questions.

She is an amazing professor! I went into ochem pretty scared but she made the class fun and was very accessible outside of class. Going to her office hours is incredibly helpful in preparing for exams.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
She is the best professor i have had at UW! she explains things very well and always encourages questions. I do recommend going to her office hours if you can to get help! The exams were not too difficult if you knew the material. Overall i highly encourage people to take her and i hope to have her in ochem :)

Kimberly is the best. I have never had a professor be so supportive and so helpful within the lecture hall and office hours. She is one of the best professors I have ever had and explains organic super well! Her lectures don't feel confusing and she highlights what is really important within the scope of the course. Take 343 with Kimberly!

CHEM 103
Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
Dr. Deglopper is one of the best professors at this University. She usually teaches organic chemistry, but she taught the 103 content really well. Her lectures were engaging and she is so passionate about teaching and ochem that I am looking forward to taking it with her! She is very clear and super helpful during office hours.
