Dr. Zoe was amazing! She held multiple office hours during the week and extra during exam time. She was extremely helpful and guided you if you were stuck. As other people said, she remembers so many names. She really cares about you as a student and as a person. Would love to take again!
A top notch professor that really cared. She memorized the first 3 rows names in a giant lecture hall for multiple sections. Truly a kind individual
Though she is one of the newer professors in the chemistry department, she was the first professor that made me feel like I was actually cared about in a class so large. She was kind, caring and always willing to find ways to help no matter what the situation was. She taught in a way that was very easy to follow and understand.
Before I took this class, I saw somebody commented here " Zoe is an angel". Now, after having her class this semester, I have to say that student is absolutely right!!
One of the best prof in chemistry department, she is super helpful especially in her office hour, she is always welcome to help you. Btw, she remember every students' name, even if you only been to her office hour at once.
Dr. Todd has been fantastic and she cares deeply about every student. The exams are very fair as long as you do the homework and discussion materials and try studying. She is an amazing professor and I wish I could have her for 562
One of the best chemistry professors at UW. She priorities supporting her students and giving them respect.
Professor Todd was the best Chem 104 professor I could have asked for. She cares about her students, tries to learn their names, and was really nice. She taught in a way that was clear and not confusing. If you can get her for Chem 104, you totally should.
Zoe Todd is an absolutely wonderful teacher, lecturer, and person. She'll try to learn your name and major and help more than any other professor I've had. Her classes are wonderful and you're privileged to have Dr. Todd as an instructor. HIGHLY RECCOMEND!!!!
zoe todd is an ANGEL on earth! trust me... take her class if you want a good grade and someone who cares about you. go to office hours once a week and sit at the front of class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Zoe if you see this legit bless your soul you are amazing
Professor Todd has been the best professor I've had. She genuinely cares about her students and would have several review sessions before each exam which no other professors would do. Her lectures were great and she was very responsive to emails and feedback. She would get to know people's names in the lecture, and overall I really enjoyed class.
Dr. Todd is the best professor I've had so far on campus. She cares a ton about her students success and holds helpful review sessions before each exam. She broke down complicated topics very well and made the expectations for each exam clear to all students. Her lectures helped expand on topics we had learned outside of class.
Professor Todd is among the smartest and kindest chemistry professors in the chemistry department. They encourage learning and are always fair on exams and homework. Their support and availability make sure that anyone can succeed and learn. If you see them teaching a class, take it, you won't regret it.
The best professor I have ever had. She is so knowledgable on the topics and extremely helpful. She truly cares about her students and the tests are very fair to the content. Getting a good grade is very doable by going to review sessions and doing the homework.
Professor Todd was an amazing professor for Chem 104. For someone who hasn't taken chem prior to freshman year of college, she was extremely caring and ready to work with me whenever I needed so I could fully understand the concepts. Would definitely recommend her, the class itself is somewhat difficult if you have no previous chemistry knowledge.
Prof. Todd was the BEST professor i have had at the university so far. She was extremely accessible outside of class and she would host 4 review sessions before every exam which shows how dedicated she was to students success in chemistry. She is fair, and I felt like when i studied for chem exams the material I studied actually was on the exam.
Dr. Todd is the best - she actually cares about teaching and her students. She knew almost everyone's name in a huge lecture, was always available to meet, and held lots of review sessions before every exam. She went above and beyond and wanted her students to succeed. Highly recommend!!
Zoe Todd is the best professor I have ever had at UW. She is kind, easy to reach outside of class, and puts extra effort into getting to know her students. Her exams were fair and she often felt sympathy for when test averages were low or students struggled. Best chemistry professor for sure.
Zoe Todd is one of the only professors I have had that made an effort to get to know her students! She cared about the feedback she received and was willing to adjust based on the class's response. I wish I could have her next year too!
Truly cared for her students!
If you have the option to take a class with Zoe Todd, I promise she is worth changing your entire schedule around for. if you want to get an A, sit in the front and go to office hours. She will know your name within 2 classes and is more than willing to help at ALL TIMES. I went to office hours every week and she kept me from dropping out tbh
Zoe is one of my favorite professors that I have had. She genuinely prioritizes geting to know her students and helps them thrive in her class. She is extremely accessible outside of class online, in office hours, and review sessions before exams. It is a difficult course and the the homeworks are hard, but they set you up for success on exams.
10/10 would recommend. Office hours and review sessions were available and extremely helpful before exams. She taught a challenging class really well. I'm not a math person, but she broke down the math in an easily digestible way and walked us through each critical thermodynamic derivative. Zoe cares about her student's success!
Clear and paced lecturer. Immense respect for students. Checks in about understanding and preferences regarding course structure frequently. Puts in lots of personal time. Offers review sessions before every exam. Fair and fast grader. Student success driven. Guarantees success to those who try. Higher grade average due to superior teaching style.
