Comment:
Dr. Pytel is one of the most enthusiastic professors I have met. She loves her subject and wants us to love it too. Her class is well structured and the homework will help you to learn the material without cramming. Her exams do offer a lot of multiple choice, so it's easy to make a mistake, but as long as you don't completely whif you will pass.

Comment:
If you work hard and pay attention in her class, you'll have to struggle to do poorly. Her tests are fair and she keeps office hours regularly that are underattended. Her love of biology and statistics is a breath of fresh air, and her enthusiasm is second to none. As with all bio faculty, evolution is a topic that you won't (and shouldn't) avoid.

Comment:
The other comments are accurate. She struggles to put herself in others shoes so she limited in explaining concepts in ways more conducive ways. Grading can be arbitrary and you will lose points if you do not phase answers exactly like she likes. A friend once copied an assignment word-for-word and I received a 90 and she received a 100.

Very unhelpful and confusing. Not good at portraying material in class. I have had this class and a seminar with her, I would recommend to steer clear if you can.

Comment:
I learned the subject very well and liked her presentation of it. She does believe in evolution, though, and how someone can hold those views at a Christian college is shocking to me. But she is a good professor and I learned a lot.

I'd recommend avoiding her at all costs. She's a nice person, but a terrible teacher/professor. I think I would have learned a lot more with Dr. York.

Comment:
Very unclear. You can't give her what she wants because she never tells you straight! Corny jokes, Kind of immature. Really opinionated and often offensive. Can't explain things (heck, can't even understand our questions). Really hard grader. Raises voice at class when we don't understand, and when we ask questions she considers stupid.

She's a nice lady and can be very funny, however she's incredibly opinionated and doesn't really let you get a word in edgewise.
