Anderson is hands down my favorite professor I've ever taken at UCLA. She truly cares for her students' well-being & success while never being too prideful to admit when she's made a mistake. Past years' classes seem to have had issues with Anderson as a newer professor, but she has truly listened to/incorporated students' feedback to reinvent her teaching style. Don't let older reviews scare you, Anderson is as good as it gets.

Anderson is the best Chem professor I've had thus far. Coming from someone who was absolutely horrible at Gen Chem, she made this class manageable and helped me regain confidence in my abilities to do well in Chem. A lot of the bad reviews she has were from her first quarters teaching and when the TA strike was happening so of course everything was chaotic. Her lecture slides are pretty easy to follow though sometimes she speeds through them. Her problem sets were difficult and tedious but if you actually try on them and don't just copy the answers from someone else, you're going to be well prepared for her exams. She's also super nice and funny. She cares about her students and doesn't want to fail anyone. If you ask her for help, she's always open to helping out. It's Ochem so its not going to be easy, but if you put in the work, you're going to get a good grade in the class.
