Comment:

He is a very good teacher that loves his job and it shows through his work and teaching. Very knowledgable and gives a lot of chances for extra credit. If you are not from a science back round and not a good studier on your own do not take him especially if its a summer class. You have to be willing to put in a lot of work and time to pass the labs

Comment:

took this professor for ANP 2. Worst professor I have ever had at Suffolk. Everything is based off slides. He is very mono-tone and does not make lecture interesting. It is very hard to even get a passing grade in his class. If you want to do good then stay away from him. The grade is based on 4 lecture tests and 2 lab tests.

Comment:

My class started out with 20 something students&by mid semester there was 11 of us left. 11.i think that says something.ProfFerruzzi makes it uncomfortable to ask questions, has a "you should know this" attitude, and words his test w/ intentions of tricking you. Hes not an ideal teacher. His lectures are boring, save your GPA & choose someone else.

Comment:

Very tough class. Be prepared to spend hours upon hours studying for his tests. I only had him for lab and that was more then enough. He is a fair teacher and it shows that he loves to teach but you will work very hard. You have no chance in this class if you are not self disciplined.

Comment:

I took Ferruzzi over the summer, which was a very bad idea. I am an A student, but I struggled with his summer class. His tests are pretty hard, you have to read the questions carefully. His class is definitely passable, but if you have a full-time job, it won't be easy getting an A. You literally have to study every day.

I had Ferruzzi for both A&P I and II and was nothing but appreciative and satisfied with the level of teaching. Few teachers remain who genuinely love teaching.

Comment:

Professor Ferruzzi is a nice guy, an excellent teacher,makes A & P II very interesting and is very thorough when Lecturing & giving out lab assingments. However his test are very very difficult to understand. When reading the questions on the exams, your not sure what the answer is suppose to be. study one semester prior before taking his class

Comment:

Prof Ferruzi is a nice guy but very difficult. Be prepared to work harder than you normally would in a class. He can be hard to understand when he lectures. His exams and practicals are hard, plan to study weeks in advance. However, he is fair and does help if you need it.

Comment:

Prior to have taken his class I was warned that he was the hardest teacher for this class. I come from a high school background of honors and AP classes and I am barely getting a C in his class. We have had a handful of drops already and more than half are probably going to withdraw while the rest of us are still going to have to take it again for

Fantastic teacher, interesting and more than willing to stay after class, answer questions and help students excel. His exams are difficult and you really need to know the material, but you will also know and retain the material after leaving this class.

Comment:

I was registered for an A&P II class, and I was contacted by him personally 2 days before the class was to begin and told the class was cancelled. He wasn't helpful when I tried to get into another class(though closed-24 limit)as an extra person b/c of the cancellation. He told me to take the class next year, when I needed it for this years class
