April Bednarski

Dr. Bednarski is a good lecturer but moves a little fast, so it can be challenging to take notes. WAY more engaging than Hafer. I wish Bednarski taught every lecture instead of switching with Hafer every few weeks. Course was challenging but fair.

Definitely loves what she does, but the lectures are too fast with too much information thrown at you. Class is clearly just memorization, so save your time and skip the lectures. You'll probably do just as good as if you went.

Bednarski is very sweet, like a kindergarten teacher. She really takes her time on the lab introductions/summaries each class, but she's a good professor. Tries her best to help you and doesn't make you feel bad if you have questions.

She may be nice but she isn't a good lecturer. She has a lot of umms in her lectures and basically reads slides word for word.... I finally had to start reading the textbook because of her.

Professor Bednarski is a very relatable and personable teacher. She makes the material manageable and is able to teach the concepts in such way that makes it interesting and fun. I highly recommend you to take her subsection for lab.

Really friendly. Very relaxed. Super sweet. Made my lab experience positive.

I don't know why she's labelled in chemistry because I had her as a bio lab TA, but she's AWESOME! She's probably one of the nicest people I've ever met in the bio department, very helpful too!
