Y'ALL. Take Suzy. She almost made me change my major to micro! So passionate. So caring. As long as you put in the studying wrk outside of class (making flashcards w/pics)- easy A. She made the labs super interesting and fun. Very understanding and works with you if she sees you're making efforts! I'll forever love micro because of her!

Suzy is a fantastic professor. She is knowledgeable about the subject matter at hand. She really loves science as a whole. If you're looking for an easy A, look elsewhere. I took her for Microbiology, and it was difficult. There is a lot of material. You get out of this class what you put into it. I would take her again in a heartbeat.

Suzy Mathis is like your mom and a professor rolled into one - how can you not succeed with a combination like that? So reasonable with deadlines that I thought I was in the twilight zone! Lots of work and projects, but the load is manageable. She was very clear with her expectations and always available for extra help. She is a dream!

I love Professor Mathis. She is amazing! She explains lecture carefully along with her notes, prepare for doing (a lot of) hw and it worth it. You will be good for test and quiz, will be a ppt about disease but it is a way for you to learn from others. Also, study for bacteria names asap because you need them for the whole semester.

Suzy truly loves what she does and it shows. Her lectures were so interesting and engaging. She doesn't make you buy a textbook and gives you all of the materials you need to do well. She is very organized and wants you to get an A! Overall a wonderful professor. Wish she was teaching all science classes so I could take her again.

Love her! She is super fun and sweet. Made micro so interesting! Expect homework every class, tests are TOUGH. If expecting an easy A, DONT take her!! You must work your butt off, but if you stay on top of your work - you can definitely earn an A. Extra credit is offered, enough that I only needed a 60 on the case studies comp. final to keep my A.

Comment:

She is one of the best Professors, but if you are a slow learner, take another Professor. She only likes 'A 'students that participate a lot. She has an active personality and if u try to tell her to calm down, she won't listen, saying it is part of the class(daaaa!). Esp her lab is ridiculously so FAST, you can't even breath. Micro is easy, Chill

I would take Suzy for every class if I could. She made it fun and interesting. She cares and is passionate about what she does. There is a quiz every class, but you can use your homework notes. The Test are from the homework (and she gives you the answers) There is one big ppt project, so get started on it early. 10/10 for Suzy!

Suzy is the best teacher ever! Micro is a tough subject she does give out a lot of work but if you just put forth the effort and study you should pass with no problems I got an A easily Attendance does matter if you miss you will get lost but come on guys it's college not high school where the teachers just pass you so you can get out of their hair

Wonderful teacher if you do your homework then you should do good on the test. Don't miss because if you miss you could miss key items that she will tell you is specifically on the test. She is always willing to answer a question as long as you have already made an effort to find it yourself and is so enthusiastic about teaching. Don't miss out!!!!

Suzy was by far the best professor I have ever taken a class from! She is extremely knowledgeable and can really break down the information. Microbiology is an extremely hard class, so don't expect to be able to just fly by, it takes a lot of studying and dedication!! I learned so much from her and would love to take more classes from her!

Suzy is an awesome person. She is witty and charming, and easy on the eyes. She is smart as a whip and has a story for everything. Although she is a very tough grader, she is VERY clear and concise about what she is looking for while grading. Do yourself a favor and take this class!

She was an absolute amazing teacher she made micro fun and interesting . She let you know what was going to be on tests ahead of time and gave good studying tips. She always answered questions and made sure you understood what was going on. You could use the homework to help on the quizzes. I would take her again!!!!

Comment:

Although the class is tough, an A is possible. I noticed halfway through the semester she almost always responds to questions first with "I JUST went over that..." and then answers the question, which eventually makes you feel dumb and slightly embarrassed, but just be tough, because 9 times out of 10 your question will help you succeed!

No textbook, uses entirely her own materials so you know what to expect. Very precise grader, so LISTEN when she tells you things she'll count off for. Tests are thorough, but she gives a lot of EC, study tips, and and tells you what you'll see on the test. Her lectures are interesting and relatable.

Seriously amazing!! First few weeks of class and I can't help but love her. Micro itself is a challenging class but she thouroughly explains all the nitty gritty material that you wouldn't understand otherwise. It's a heavy duty class, but everything covered in class applies to your field whether it's nursing or medicine, etc. such a great lady!!
