Comment:

She is a really intellectual professor and good at what she does and is very nice! However, her teaching style is not something I would recommend to someone or retake. Her lecture is a bit all over the place and it seems that her quizzes and tests are a bit different than what she teaches in class. I ended up retaking it online and getting an A ..

Sue is one of a kind! She puts her heart into the class and gives multiple opportunities to increase your grade as long as you are willing to work for it. My grade was lack of effort on my part. She is so very thorough and detailed. If you want to excel in the medical field, take ker for all of your anatomy classes! She has a great personality too!

Comment:

Sue Shuman should be the teaching standard. She clearly loves teaching, knows her stuff, and is passionate about the subject. She doesn't let you get away with just showing up to class. You have to come willing and ready to learn. I wish there was an A&P 3 and she taught it.

Sue is amazing! Yes, there are quizzes every week, but if you even study youll do fine. She gives a buncch of extra credit for every quiz, homework, and test. As long as you do well with homework and tests youll pass. Shes also very funny and helpful.

Sue is an amazing professor! She expects you to do your part and come to class prepared, which if you are going for healthcare you will have to do. She gives a ton of extra credit opportunities DO THEM! You will work for your grade but you will learn so much. She really cares about you and your education. I am well prepared for future classes now.

Comment:

Sue is an amazing professor! She definitely makes you work for your grade, but you come out so much smarter in the end! Her lectures are EVERYTHING! My advice is to record lecture, go home and listen and take notes, this will get you an A. When she says she owns your soul, she means it!! The tests are hard, but if you study you'll pass. Take Sue!!

Comment:

One of the worst professors i have ever had. No matter how much you study, the tests do not match the content she teaches. Gives quizzes almost every other day without proper preparation and teaching. She will quiz you on material she did not teach. She gets lost in her teaching and skip many sections of the outline then quiz you on it.

This was by far the hardest class I've taken. Her tests were IMPOSSIBLE even if you study a ton. She really made it harder than it actually was and she included a lot of difficult to understand info that is mainly needed for people going into nursing.. unlike myself.

Amazing professor! She wants you to do well. Attendance is important. The way she lectures is not boring at all, she doesn't read from powerpoints she keeps you interested and explains things in a way all can understand. She puts a story behind the info to help you remember. You must study and do homework to do well, pay attention to detail.

Sue is by far the best professor I have ever taken. She is genuine, true to the core, and only wants the best for her students. A&P material can be a tough topic but if you go to class, actually engage with her lectures, and take the time to understand what you're learning then you will do just fine. Take her, you won't regret it!

Fantastic instructor - she WANTS you to do well. She also encourages students to understand the principles not just memorize. She is very fair. Her "contracts" tell you exactly what is expected to k now for the quizzes & tests. This is a tough class but she makes it fun. She grades assignments very quickly.

I have taken Sue for 4 classes now I and I would take her for 4 more! She is and has been in the medical field "since God was young" as she likes to say! You HAVE to record her lectures and re listen to them because she does talk very fast. She does drop some quizzes and gives extra credit on every quiz and test!

Sue is the best Professor I've had so far at SPC. Her being a nurse educator, she gives stories and relates lectures to real life situations. Her lectures were interesting & fun! She's a great inspiration; Really helpful, friendly, and understanding. Her Tests were somewhat tough for the way she words them, but if you study well, you'll get an A.

Sue is the greatest thing that has happened to me this semester. She cares so much about her students on a professional level and as a human being. She gives nothing but chances to help especially 1 on 1. She makes everything so clear and easy and make sure you do the extra credit! She is the best!

Took a and p in summer which I wouldn't recommend to my worst enemy but Susan made it worth while . I learned soo much and she could teach this class blindfolded with nothing bUT her own body. She really does want you to succeed and will help anyway she can. VERY HANDS ON. Whats on supplement is what she test on so if you study you will pass.

Comment:

If you take Shuman, here are some helpful hints: 1. What she says is on the test. So record her lecture (I personally just typed it out). 2. In lab, the powerpoints located in "Various files" will save your life. The models can be deceiving, so pictures + labels keep it clear and lastly 3. You will study, you will stress but it will be worth it.

Professor Sue is the Best of the Best. She could teach this course with her eyes closed, hands tied, and no material! She has a special gift not all professors have. Extreamly funny, down to earth, and as long as your giving 100% she will do her best to help you. Gives a TON of extra credit opportunities that can substitute for a low quiz grade.

Comment:

Good prof., but speak very fast (not good for the second language person)! need to record her lectures. Study and study if want to pass the class. You'll earn the knowledge of med. file, but not easy to get easy grade. Quiz every Mon. if finish the chapter, true or false; 4 exams with the final from the first to the end. U'll proud if get B or A !
