Comment:

He is the best BIO professor i have taken at NOVA. People wrote bad comments of course if you dont study you will fail. I went to learning center and review what he said about notes and online practice exam and i pass his class with B. I would prefer to take class with him again.

Comment:

Please do not believe any positive comment about this professor. I am a straight A student and his disorganized, rushed, ridiculous style of teaching caused the entire class to fail an exam. He refused to curve the grade or give extra credit after telling the class he would except it. He only gave us one week to study for an exam. Stay away!!

Comment:

I have never given a negative review. But, he is the absolute worst as a professor. Please pick a different BIO professor. He is very 'all over the place' with his lectures. doesn't explain things well and when you need help he is barely there for you. His exams are the worst. They are numbered incorrectly, very old and hard to read.

Comment:

Here's the deal. Approximately 50 percent of students who are aspiring nurses across US fail anatomy physiology. If you want to be a nurse, take Frasinel. He will give you notes upon notes, and repeats the material so much that if you're paying attention read NOT ON FACEBOOK DURING CLASS, you can't help but have the material stick to you.

Comment:

Funny but arrogant and old_fashioned. More concerned with traveling and hiring committee. Packets say all quiz answers are inside except he didn't make the packet so there not. Grades/test answers were often wrong and he doesn't change it if it's a point or two. Class is doable lots of extra credit and practice test. Lab is difficult/unorganized.

Comment:

TAKE THIS PROFESSOR. He is extremely hard but truly cares about his students. He says it is not his job to babysit students but works with them if they come to class. He is VERY descriptive and will repeat over and over again for you. He also does not take back talk, that's why people don't like him. HE IS AMAZING!

Dr. Frasinel is an amazing professor. I have never understood classroom material as well as I do in this class. Dr. Frasinel is just plain brilliant-knowledgeable and teaching style is great for eager students. Promotes participation, and stays after at learning center to help anyone that asks. RECOMMEND HIM! PLus he's very funny!

Comment:

Frasinel is one of the best professors I have ever had. I will remember him always, and I fully intend on using him as a resource in the future. I definitely was not the best grade in the class, but he still saw my potential and helped me to achieve it. Take his class and study hard you won't regret it. He gives you all the notes you need.

Comment:

Yes, do NOT skip his class. His class is very hard and requires serious concentration, but at the end you will get a lot out of it. Like what previous reviewers has said, "If you can't pass his class, then maybe you shouldn't be studying in Nursing at all."

Comment:

Very helpful and will use his own time to held study sessions for ones who needs help. DON'T SKIP HIS CLASS! He will not tolerate skipping. He is by far the best professor I ever had. He is very good at what he is doing and is very eager to pass on the knowledge to. He does jokes alot, and it is not for everyone. But it didn't bother me.

Comment:

He know what he is talking about and makes jokes using the subject matter so that we don't fall asleep and to help the info stick. Very helpful in and outside of class as long as you are willing to work. Attend class and take notes and you will do well. I look forward to his class and will take 162 with him.

Comment:

He called us his little chickadees--"coo, coo". I liked that. His accent lends to some different pronounciations. His comedy isn't PC--he's an equal opportunity insulter. Uses older, but still good material combined with new. He's a paper guy, not a computer guy. Very helpful in lab--gets out of his seat and moves around showing you things.

Very helpful and fair teacher. Really cares about the subject and wants students to do well. Offers lots of extra credit and is crystal clear about what will be on the test. If you are willing to work and study you will do very well with this professor.

I had Frasinell for 161 & 162.Both classes were hell. A lot of hard work.He is not PC which is refreshing in todays world. Attend class, participate, and work hard, you will do well.

Comment:

Frasinel was very arrogant and should not be teaching a class, unless he is willing to help his students out. He only uses his notes for the class, and tells us to buy these expensive books and doesn't use them. I DO NOT recommend this professor at ALL!! This semester was a waste of my money and time.
