Comment:

Dr. Seller's is probably one of the worst teachers I have ever had. He disrespected students who had a different view than him, and kicked a student out just because he stood up for himself. He argues about political views rather than teaching Biology. If you are going to take him, be a push over because if you are not you will fail.

Dr. Sellers is the best. He's interesting and obviously loves what he teaches. Bring your study guide to class, it will help you greatly on the test. No curve, seven tests, occasional bonus. Always go to class. You'll learn something fun and weird every time.

Good teacher.Gives study guides that you can find the answers to online.His tests do not go by the study guides completely so its not an easy A.I would highly recomend reading the chapters and outlining. Gives bonus. class requires work!I got an A by readin the chapters, outling, and studying the study guides. Some book diagrams are on tests too.

This professor is amazing. If you study, you will pass. If you do not, you will not. Follow him as he goes through the study guide, fill it in, study the material and you will do well!! Dry humor, must be somewhat worldly to understand.

Comment:

Dr. Sellers is an awesome teacher. He sometimes goes on rants about politics and other non-related biology topics, but overall great teacher. He gives a study guide that, if you listen and fill it out during class, are pretty much guaranteed to pass. If you can take him, TAKE HIM!!!

Take this class! Study guides that DO help you with the test are provided, and he even gives you the answers to them. Why would anyone want to take anyone else? He is a wonderful speaker, and is hilarious!

Comment:

He teaches from the study guide and then test from the study guide. The wording of tests on questions can be tricky though. Study, study, study. And come to class because there are occasional quizzes. Sometimes tries to insert his political and evolutionary opinions.

Comment:

If you are interested in getting a good grade, take this professor. However, if you want a teacher who will make you learn, Sellers is not the guy for you. The study guide tells you all the answers to the test, so as long as you have a friend to let you borrow their study guide, there is no reason to go to class or buy the textbook.

Comment:

He is a bit dramatic and makes weird noises sometimes. lol. But he is a good teacher overall and made the class interesting, where it could have easily been the most boring class ever. He is only offering this class 2 more summer quarters, then it's over... maybe he is retiring - I don't know. His tests are easy as long as you go to class.

Comment:

Good teacher, very liberal though and shows it when he lectures. I think i missed almost half of the classes and never made less than an 80 on a test. Same scenario in 132 just 7 tests instead of 4. From what i heard about other bio 130 and 132 teachers from my friends sellers is the way to go

Wonderful teacher. I actually enjoy going to class and listening to him talk. The textbook can be kind of confusing, but he explains the entire chapter in great clarity. You can make an easy A as long as you read, do his studyguide, and pay attention in class! Enjoying him so much I'm signing up with him next quarter! :)

The class itself is very easy. You do nothing but listen to him lecture and fill out the study guide. The problem with Sellers is that he can't keep his liberal hack opinions out of his lectures. If you have values or common sense I don't recommend you take his class. I usually consider walking out of class at least three times a week.

Awesome Professor!!! He gives you a study guide, this guarntees a C. If you pay attention to lectures and follow the diagrams in the book, easy A. Attendance is not mandatory but he gives quizs that only hurt your grade if you are not there. One girl had an A on all the test but never came to class and finished with a C. Same text is used in Bisc13

His class is hard, but you will learn a lot from him if you go to class. He gives a study guide. But it doesn't cover the entire test. For that you need to listen to his lectures, and there will still be questions on there he didn't review--but few. You should get an A if you use the guide and attend class.
