Comment:

I did not like Mr. Turner. He was my lab professor and was way to anal about the way things went in lab. He is too O.C.D and needs to chill out during class cause not everything is going to go his way. He is mean to students and called one girl stupid during class and made her cry.

I really enjoyed this professor. He gives quizzes every Friday. He gave us HIS NOTES so we could follow him as he talked. He gave us extra credit if we had less than one absence. If you put forth your best effort, he will definitely help you out!

Great teacher and wonderful person. He may talk fast and be all jumpy, but he knows his stuff! Take good notes and study review questions and the weekly quizzes will be a breeze.

Worst teacher ever! Tests do not cover what was gone over in test. Wants sentence ver batum on tests. Expects you to basically be able to recite his entire book plus be able to conduct tests he hasnt even discussed. Don't take this professor!

Comment:

Talks fast, very enthusiastic. Quiz given every week over the previous weeks' procedure. By completing study questions in lab manual, you'll do fine. Write everything that is on the board. He demonstrates the procedures, doesn't turn you lose on your own. Attend every class. He's willing to help and answer questions.

Dr. Turner is a goof, really jumpy and fidgity, but he's a great teacher. I learned a lot in lab, and got a awesome grade. The quizzes aren't hard, just pay attention during the procedures and you'll do fine!

Comment:

Enjoys punishing people, and will do so for even the smallest of offenses. He purposely will look for mistakes in people he doesn't like, and will publicly humiliate them whenever the chance. Quizzes are difficult, but just study hard. My advice is try to stay invisible, otherwise he'll swoop over you like a vulture, ready to kill.

Comment:

This was a very fun class!! Parasitology rocks!! You have to study for it and know everything, especially the microscope slides and identifing them. However, Turner will help you with the slides and gives out a vocab list of things you need to know for the test. This is a hard course, but one well worth the trouble.

Comment:

This teacher started off telling the class that about 3/4's of us would fail, that he was not on cocaine, if we were 1 minute late he would not let you in, and many other things. If you want a teacher who cuts some slack since you attended every day then he definetly is not the teacher you want. I've never done so terrible in a class.

Comment:

He's very boring. But, he teaches very well. I've had few lecture professors wo could explain such complicated things so well. His study guides are ok, but there were always some things on the test that were out-of-the-blue. If you study the guides well, and understsand it (ask him if you don't), you should make an A.

Comment:

I had him as my lab prof. He sucks and is very unclear. Quizzes are confusing and my lab table had to keep eachother awake. The only way we could get through the lab period was drawing or laughing at him. He is pretty darn rediculous. I don't suggest taking him, but it could be worse.. You could have Thomas for Chem Lab....:(

I hated the class. I went every day because I thought he might cut me some slack being I was there every day, but he did not. He really didn't seem to care either.

Comment:

He tries to keep your attention in class but he fails. Its very easy to drift off because he is so boring. I didn't think he was very helpful either. He never wanted to help me after class, he was too "busy".

Extremely boring! If you don't want to teach yourself the book, don't take his class. The only good thing is that he has practice tests on reserve.

If you study and do what you are suppose to you'll do great. It kind of hard to stay awake in class so you don't what to take it in the early morning or late afternoon.
