Saying Thank You to Dr. Lavelle

[Ashley Curtis 2O]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,
After a bad experience in AP Chem, I really thought I hated chemistry, and that I could never understand it. Then I had you as a professor for both chem 14A and 14B, and I must say when I first picked your class, I was scared that I would hate it. I didn't. Having you as my professor for two quarters really gave me a new understanding and appreciation of chemistry and I just want to say thank you for being so passionate about teaching and helping all your students.

[Benjamin_Oh_3O]

Dear Dr.Lavelle,
After taking chemistry for the first time since 7th grade, I did not even know the definition of moles when I first started taking Chem 14 series. Even after Chem 14A on Fall quarter, it was really hard for me to see the bigger picture of chemistry. However, thanks to your enthusiasm for teaching, now I have a clear picture of how what I've learned in this chemistry courses can be related to any future science classes, from further chemistry classes to physics, or even to biology. I was really afraid to take your course, but after 10 weeks, I realize that it was a really good decision to take it with you because your passion encourages me to work hard and not to be afraid of challenges. Thank you so much.
Best,

[Irene Ramos 1F]

Dr. Lavelle,

Thank you very much for all your lectures, patience, great attitude and smiles!
I appreciate very much the time you dedicated us and the different resources you provided us in order to have a better understanding of the material presented in your lectures! It was an honor to have you as a professor.
Also, I'm glad I was able to help you find a good marker. :)
Have a great Spring Break!

[Patrick Wilson 2B]

Dr. Lavelle,

When I was sitting in my Chem 14A final last quarter reviewing my answers it started to dawn on me how much chemistry I had really learned in your class (not just memorized) and how much we had covered in only ten weeks. Once again I have had similar realizations in 14B. I am not a very big fan of Chemistry, but after seeing all of the real life applications of our learning it is starting to grow on me. Chemistry really affects everything around us and describes so much in our world and daily lives. It's been a fun two quarters!

Thanks,
Patrick Wilson

[Stephanie Yeganyan3G]

Thank you for an interesting chemistry class and providing us with all the resources that you do.

[Audrey Magsig 1E]

Dr. Lavelle,

I can say that I've thoroughly enjoyed being in your chemistry class. I've learned so much in the class even outside the course material through this class. I appreciate everything you've done to help us succeed and even though it has been very difficult, it has been a great experience. Having a professor who is so obviously entertained by teaching and chemistry inspires and excites me to think more in depth about the topic and be more excited about learning. Thank you so much for all you have done!

[danny_nguyen_3C]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,

Thank you for the great two quarters! My curiosity for chemistry has exponentially increased, and it is all thanks to you and your dedication to the subject. The way you put your students first is inspiring and I hope to be like you one day. Have a great spring break and rest of the year.

Danny

[julia lai 3A]

Thank you Dr. Lavelle for being such a wonderful professor this quarter!

I appreciate how much effort and time you spend making sure we have all the resources we could possibly need to succeed (all those review sessions!), along with setting up bruincast for those who need it. Your thoroughness in teaching and genuine care for your students made your class a great experience. Going through those jokes and memes on Friday were fun as well!

All the Best,
Julia

[Justin_Bueno_2O]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,

Thank you for everything you have done for me and all your students throughout the years. After taking both 14A and now 14B, I know that everything you have taught and provided will be with me for years to come. You have prepared me beyond my expectations and I am thankful that I was able to be in your class.

[marinarosebrock]

Dr. Lavelle,
I have been far from a model student in your class. Sometimes I missed lectures and, more than once, I have stayed up all night in order to study for a quiz due to procrastination. In any other class I may have been left behind in week one. However, your dedication to me, as a first year student, has been unparalleled by any other professor, and for this, I am extremely grateful. Your extensive resources and clear passion for chemistry have been key in keeping me afloat as I adjust to a college curriculum. Thank you for all of the hard work and energy you gave to these courses, even when I did not.
I wish you all the best.
Sincerely,
A student who probably should have gone to a couple more of those "32 office hours and 28 peer learning sessions per week."

[Sarai_Ferrer_3C]

Dr. Lavelle,

Thank you for showing the devotion a true professor who desires success for his students should have!

Hope all goes well with you and have a great spring break!

[Adam_Alyafaie_1L]

Lavelle you are a great teacher you really cares about your students. I appreciate the extra mile you went for us when it came to office hours and PLRs. I hope you have a fantastic break and continue teaching the way you have been.

PS please don't make the final hard.

[Diondraya_Taylor_1C]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,

Thank you for your commitment to teaching and really helping us to understand chemistry. The many resources that you have gone out of your way to provide us with have really made the difference for my performance these past two quarters and I absolutely feel like I will be leaving this class with the ability to do well in 14C and beyond.

[Krista Yang 1C]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,

I really appreciate all you have done for us this quarter, providing so many office hours and organizing all the review sessions. Your commitment to our learning and your love of chemistry is evident in every class.

Thank you!

[April Z 1K]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,
Thank you for all you've done for the class, from the time you've invested into making the solid lectures, to organizing all the resources available (bruincast, review sessions, etc). Your attentiveness and effort is appreciated, and It's been a tough but memorable quarter.

[GregoryPolyakov_1H]

Thank you Dr. Lavelle!
You've made this quarter (and the previous one) much better than I could have possibly expected Chemistry to be!
I am extremely appreciative of all of the review sessions that you have organized; it really goes to show how much you care about your students' success. Thanks again for an amazing Chem 14 experience!

[Aarthi_Lakshmi_2A]

Dr. Lavelle, you have no idea how much I would want you again as a professor. You're obviously very bright, enthusiastic, but most of all, kind. You always have a smile on your face, which makes chemistry seem much less daunting. Thank you for a great quarter.

[JennaMinami1I]

Dr. Lavelle,

Thank you for your diligence, love, and enthusiasm for teaching Chemistry at UCLA. You are the only professor I know of who gives so many resources to his students in hopes that they succeed in the course/develop a true interest in the topic taught. You go above and beyond what UCLA requires of its professors, and it really does mean a lot to your students.

I will definitely remember your course with fondness as I continue with my undergraduate career, and beyond.

Best,
Jenna

[Anjum Farook 2O]

thank you for the time you've invested in ensuring we have access to countless resources that have helped us prepare for this class!

[Angelica Nava-1E]

Thank You so much Dr. Lavelle for making Chemistry a subject that I've come to enjoy whereas in the past I didn't like so much. I loved your teaching style and all the opportunities you gave us to get help on things that we didn't understand. You are a great professor. Thank You again.

[Breanna Buhay 2H]

Dr. Lavelle,
After such a rough quarter of 14A (not that it's your fault, chemistry is just a hard topic for me to grasp), I was really worried coming into 14B. After finishing the class, I want to thank you for going beyond what is expected of most professors. Your dedication in helping us succeed, from constant resources to reviews sessions, it's amazing how you do so much even after everything that's happened in your life within the past year. I thank you for your hard work and passion and I wish you the best of luck in the rest of your endeavours. Thank you, Dr. Lavelle.

[Mikaela Gareeb 3G]

Dr. Lavelle,
Thank you for not only helping me understand chemistry better, but also for helping ease the transition from high school into college. You have been understanding every step of the way and have supported me, as well as your thousands of other students, in this exciting, yet nerve-wracking time in our lives. I appreciate your generosity and kindness greatly and after taking your class I feel prepared to tackle 14C and any other chem class thrown my way.
Best Regards,
Mikaela Gareeb

[Kristina98]

thanks dr lavelle :) great course

[dayannaramirez_1J]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,
Thank you so much for everything you have done. Although I think the course is challenging, your lectures and resources have helped me out a lot. I feel like I've taken a lot away from this class in terms of experience and knowledge. I hope you continue to succeed in your methods and enjoy the years to come.

[Tiffany_Luu_1F]

Dear Dr Lavelle

Thank you for all the time you spend helping make this course more easier despite its difficulty. All the assistance along with the lectures and your course reader will all really helpful.

[Selena_Wong_1I]

Hi Dr. Lavelle,

Thanks for dedicating so much passion and time in teaching us Chem 14B. You really made my winter quarter memorable. I really enjoyed Friday's jokes and the numerous resources available for students.

[ckim_1I]

Dr. Lavelle,

Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication to furthering our education despite the difficulties that have occurred this school year. It takes immense strength to be able to not let your problems affect you in your profession, but you have done so whenever you stepped into the lecture hall. I commend you not only as a student, but also as a human being.
I have learned many things besides thermodynamics and o-chem in your class. You have shattered my negativity about chemistry, especially after taking 14A with a horrible professor (I would like to thank you for that). You have also taught me the value of hard work, and those countless nights of studying will be seared into my mind as a reminder.
Thank you for showing so much kindness and interest in the well-being of your students! I have encountered many professors' who don't give a [censored] about the students, but you have again broken my perspective on that part.
On another note, I never would have realized how funny these chemistry jokes are when you actually understand them. These jokes have saved my life.
Bless your heart Dr. Lavelle, and I wish you the best!!!

Sincerely,
A Pessimistic Student Who Now Cares About Chemistry

[Casey Monahan 2C]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,
Thank you so much for introducing me to college chemistry. Your class was the one that I was most nervous about, but I learned that a class is nothing to be afraid of. Thank you so much for all of the help that you provide, and the cheeriness that you bring to class every day.

[204751840 2E]

Dr. Lavelle,

Thank you so much for putting the amount of work you do into this class. Chemistry Community has provided me with the ability to quickly get my questions answered about difficult concepts. Your passion for chemistry also keeps me interested in class and makes the subject enjoyable.

[divya_devineni_2E]

Thank you for all your help Dr. Lavelle!

[Wenqian_Deng_1L]

Dr. Lavelle,

Thank you for being such a superb and caring professor! The hours of preparation and organization of the lectures, course readers, and all of the resources is greatly appreciated. I came to college not looking forward to taking chemistry courses because in high school, AP chemistry never clicked for me, but you changed that. The detailed course reader, along with awesome TAs, and the amount of resources you provided, helped me overcome my fear of chemistry. I now look forward to taking the rest of the chemistry 14 series, and I cannot thank you enough for that. Please take care and continue to be amazing, energetic, and encouraging!

[Brandon_Wu_2L]

Thank you Dr. Lavelle for the copious amount of resources you give this class. This class had more helpful resources than any other I have taken at UCLA so far with the TA/UA office hours, chemistry community, and course reader. The intro to organic chemistry course reader should be extremely helpful moving forward.

Thank you again!

[Catherine_Zhang_1H]

Thank you Dr. Lavelle for a fun two quarters! The extra effort you put into offering so many resources to us is much appreciated and so helpful for 14A and 14B! I've learned a lot from these classes and I'll definitely be prepared for 14C.

[Tina_Keshishian_2F]

Dr. Lavelle,
Thanks for making chemistry fun! We're all very grateful to have someone like you as our professor this quarter.
Thanks again!

[Yen Vuong 2I]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,

Thank you so much for leading this amazing class. I am forever grateful to professors such as yourself for all the time and effort you put into your lectures, and it really shines through during class regardless of how tired or sleepy we students are sometimes. During my time in high school, I had an incredible AP chemistry teacher who inspired me to fully learn and explore the subject, and I am glad that my passion has not faded since then because of Dr. Li and yourself. In fact, I want to become a TA or UA for chemistry in the future now so maybe I can hope to aspire to be as inspiring as you are to all of us. Again, thank you for everything this quarter and I wish you a fantastic spring break.

Sincerely,
Yen Vuong

[Adam Wojnar 1K]

Thank you for everything Dr. Lavelle. You are by far the best professor I've had in my college career, and I'm very pleased to have learned so much from you. Your dedication to teaching is awesome, and you are very appreciated by me and all other students! Thanks again!

[trase aguigam 2A]

Thank you Dr. Lavelle for your constant support. I think I speak for everyone when I say you are someone who cares deeply about the success of all your students. Thank you for taking the time and going the extra mile for me and for all of your students.

[Amber_Carlton_3D]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,

Since beginning college in your 14A class, I cannot express enough gratitude for all of the hard work you put in to this class. Throughout 14A and 14B, your organization, helpful review sessions, and endless hours of opportunities you have given students to expand their knowledge and better their understanding of chemistry has truly stood out to me. Although I have not been in college too long, your passion and care you show towards your students, TAs, UAs, and chemistry itself is so refreshing and inspiring. Chem 14A and 14B have changed my college experience in a positive way thus far, and I am now excited to see what else lies in store for my future chemistry classes! I was never a huge fan of chemistry in high school, but your interesting lectures, helpful course readers, and chemistry community allowed me to really learn past what I thought were my limits, altering my views towards chemistry for the better :). Thank you for such a great two quarters, and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your teaching experience :). Also, thank you for your chem jokes. They were greatly appreciated!

Best,
Amber Carlton

[904571591]

Thank you Dr. Lavelle! We can have total 20 hours office hours every week and a such website to ask questions, they are really help, and I have never have a class like this. Need to say thank you and hope I can done your 14A well.

Best,
Zihui

[Mitch Walters]

Hi Dr. Lavelle,

I just wanted to say thank you for all of the great resources you've provided for us so far. You're a fantastic instructor!

[905022356]

Dr Lavelle,

Thank you for coming to class in a good mood everyday. Thank you for your patience and for the effort you put in giving us all possible tools for us to succeed in your class. Your explanations are simple and straightforward, you make difficult chemistry easy to understand. See you next quarter! :)

[Chem_Mod]

You are most welcome!

Thank you for your thoughtful responses.
Enjoy your break.

[Mariane Sanchez 1E]

Hello Dr. Lavelle,

Wow! What a quarter! This Chemistry class was definitely a great experience. I never liked Chemistry before because I can never understand it... until I got into your class. It's amazing how one's perspective can instantly change once a great teacher comes along -- and in just a span of 10 weeks. Thank you for being so passionate in teaching and considerate towards your students, I definitely felt your care despite having hundreds of us! How I hope all the professors I come along in college will be as great as you. The resources you have provided were sooooo helpful, not only did it help me with the subject but it also made me new connections/friends. Big thanks to the UAs (Hi Ronald and Victoria!!!) and TAs (Ieva!!) as well, they all did their best with helping us -- thank you so much!

Honestly after taking this class, I feel very bad for all the students who never got to experience your teaching. In any case, I am sooo looking forward for 14B! I am excited to learn new topics for the sake of learning and not so much as just passing the class and fulfilling my pre-major!

All the best,
Mariane Sanchez

[Chem_Mod]

Many thanks to all of you.

Good luck with your finals.

[Yixin Angela Wang 2H]

I don't know if people are still posting these, but I want to thank Dr. Lavelle for being an encouraging and dynamic professor; his courses really helped me to gain confidence and proficiency in chemistry. I can now firmly say that I like chemistry more than I do physics. Before, they were sort of tied.

[Akash_Kapoor_1L]

Thank you Dr. Lavelle!!

[Chem_Mod]

Welcome!

[Phillip Tran]

Dr. Lavelle

You da real mvp

Yours truly

[Chem_Mod]

Dimitri just told me what that means.
Thank you.

I have one for all of you:

UCLA students are da bomb!

:-)

[DamianW]

Honestly, thank you so much. You made me work, but I did learn so much

[Mishta Stanislaus 1H]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,
Thank you so much of your dedication to teaching. I really came into this class without a strong chemistry background but I rarely felt like that out me at a disadvantage. These past two quarters have really made be appreciate chemistry and all of its real world applications. Thanks again!

[Jason Muljadi 2C]

Dr. Lavelle,

I hated chemistry in high school and I honestly was dreadful in it. I had a good teacher, don't get me wrong. It just felt like chemistry and I had a terrible relationship. I decided to give chemistry one final go. Going into my fall quarter, I had resigned to myself that if I didn't like it/sucked at it when I take the class, I would drop out of my major and seriously reconsider my life choices. It's now been 5ish months since I first stepped into your class and I can say that I am reassured in the path in life that I'm taking and that you and your class were truly a blessing in my life. It was challenging; my grades will not be what I want, but I think the experiences, the foundations, and the love of chemistry that I fostered in your class are worth more than a letter on a piece of paper (I'm also not pre-med, so I can say that lol)

Was I the best student? No. Everyone taking this class is brilliant in some way and their determination and insight motivated me to keep chugging along and to be more inquisitive. Did I fully take advantage of your resources? I wish I can say that I did, but I really didn't. I went to most of the review sessions, continually went to office hours and UA sessions, and posted regularly-ish on the forum. Those definitely helped me out (s/o to Joe, Ieva, Dimitri, Alex, Sean, and Lyndon for helping me out) But I was being passive at times. Did I grow as a student? Absolutely. This class challenged me and made me change my study habits. I look for the best way to be efficient now. Have I changed my mind about chemistry? Yes. I think after taking your 14A class, I could not stop talking about quantum mechanics to my friends at home because I loved learning about that.

I don't believe there's anything else I can say to fully encapsulate my gratitude. So, thank you for these five months and thank you for instilling confidence in me. I will miss this class. I wish you nothing but the best!

Sincerely,
Jason

[Joshua Hughes 1L]

Thank you, Dr. Lavelle, for being such a great professor for the last two quarters. I'm really going to miss you in 14C and 14D, your smile is always so contagious in lecture. Also, the amount you care for your students is really evident based on all the outside hours and resources you made available to us in 14A and 14B and it was really appreciated :)

Also, thank you to all the TAs and UAs who were super chill and helpful in office hours and review sessions who had to put up with my dumb questions (shout out to my TAs Dane and Mackenzie, you guys rock!).
Wish you all the best!

[Chem_Mod]

The above thoughtful communications are much appreciated and why I work consistently to assist everyone.

Great to have the terrific TAs and UAs acknowledged, as we did in class.
Great team effort.
:-)

PS.
Just finished answering final exam questions. Time to bring another good quarter to a close.
Well done everyone!

[MinyoungHong_1L]

Dear Dr.Lavelle,
Thank you for your kind spirit and patience throughout this quarter. Your dedication to this class and to your students is astounding, and your expertise is evident. Although chemistry is not an easy area of study for me, I was always touched by your enthusiasm for the topic. Thank you for all that you do for your students. The countless hours of outside-of-class help, modules, chemistry community, and more that you have organized do not go unnoticed. Wishing you all the best in the future!

Thank you so much.

[Priscilla Okaiteye]

Dear Dr. Lavelle,

Thank you so much for a great quarter. I honestly don't know how far I could have gotten without that UA session. You are one of the very few professors that actually care how students do in the class and what they understand. I learned a great deal from you and hope continue to come up with great ways to teach your students.

[Ryan Danis 1J]

Dear Dr. Lavelle, Thankyou for being such a great professor who truly cares about his students. I appreciate the time and effort put into the vast resources available. I learned so much chemistry in a short amount of time and feel excited going into the rest of the chem series.

Thank you Dr. Lavelle! I was glad to be able to have Dr. Lavelle as a professor for both Chem 14A and 14B. All of the review sessions and lectures were helpful and I enjoyed this class a lot!
