Comment:

I had him for lab, which is about 2 and half hours long. HIs lectures are very long and causes us to do the actual lab half an hour before class ends. He's rude and loud, so if you do something wrong or can't answer his question, he starts yelling. There are a lot of quizzes, which is based on notes that you take so take notes!

Gives way too many quizzes for a lab class. Very Rude and loud and catches an attitude if you do not know the answer to a question. Do not take this professor

Comment:

The long lectures have taught me more than my lecture professor has. If you enjoy biology, then you shouldn't have a problem with his lectures. Gets very detailed and the numerous quizzes gives you a better chance to get an A. Although he gets frustrated with a lot of simple mistakes students can make, he still delivers mutual respect.

Hes a great professor! Although, his lectures are really long you learn a lot. Extra credit is given on quizzes which helps. Just study class notes thoroughly.

Great professor, a bit impatient but will still take the time out to explain the lab exercises. Very knowledgeable and includes extra credit on his test, which are a helpful.

Great professor. To be honest, I think I learn more from his semi-lecture within lab than I do at my actual lecture. VERY thorough. Highly recommend.

Comment:

He is probably the best professor I've ever met. I got 100+ in all his tests. He teaches everything very thoroughly and crystal clearly. To get 100+ in all his exams I suggest you bring a netbook or laptop with you and type everything he says. Also bring a small notebook to write whatever he writes on board. Labs are group-based. He's nice+polite!

Really strict professor! He does give good explanations, but if you're just looking to pass and aren't interested in bio don't pick his classes! Also he can we quite rude and impatient with students.

Such a great teacher. I had him for summer session 1 and he was detailed. I learned so much, and i actually can say i retaied it as well. He is very good at explaining things in such a way that you understand. Very good teacher and gives A LOT of extra credit if needed. I never needed it, but it was a cushion to know that it was there!

Comment:

Amazing professor even though he talked alot, he covered every deatil and info you need to understand the basis of Biology. I wish the new professors would learn off of people like him. Got an A in the class and all the 15 days of intense studying in the summer was worth it.

Comment:

Had him for Bio lab, and regretted choosing him. During the summer session he gives 7 quizzes, each of which are very challenging. You have to not only study to pass but understand the material and use logic. He talks NONSTOP and tortures everyone from beginning of class to the end. Got an A- in his lab, and that was because I worked hard!! RISK!
