Very tough class overall. He is very interesting and tells really cool stories to make learning easier. His test are really hard and require a lot of studying. I recommend this teacher but only if you are willing to show up and do the work.

Comment:
Estes is HILARIOUS! His funny stories relate back to his teaching and he tries to help you understand as much as possible. He gives a lot of chances for extra points and he gives study guides for all tests. TESTS ARE HARD, but Estes is an amazing teacher, just study and you can do it.

Estes is a good teacher. Very funny to listen to and doesn't take crap from anyone. Show up to class, take notes, and the good grades will show. Studying for his tests is a definite must. He prepared me well for Bio 210 & 211. I would take him again.

Excellent instructor. Better suited for mature student prepared and willing to work. Tests are demanding but manageable if you are willing to work. After his class I have taken BIO 210/211 and Bio 225.Found he had laid the perfect foundation for A's in these classes. Thank You Dr. Estes

Comment:
Very helpful and knowledgable, he's a little scattered so people don't want to give him a chance but you will learn alot if you just listen, take notes and study. extremely intellegent man and most people dont like him because he makes you do the work and won't do it for you.

Good teacher. Taking notes and coming to class is a must. I loved how he is consistent with teaching styles and due dates. He gives hard tests but if you pay attention and know the material, it will show in your grades. He relates what he is talking about to every day life.

Hard to follow in class. Miss class and you will miss lecture for an entire chapter. Textbook is useless for studying, taking notes is a MUST!

Very hard to follow. Half of my class has withdrawn. He told us yesterday that the average grade in the class was failing. Lectures are very confusing. Do not take this course from him.

The text says one thing and he says another. He isn't willing to help. Others in the class are also struggling. There is a very low grade average in my class. That should tell the school something.

I think that Dr. Estes is a lively teacher that makes learning Biology fun. He tries to show you Biology in a real life manner by telling you stories about real life occurrences.

Comment:
He only confuses me. I know biology, he contradicts facts. He also tries to "dumb the class down", which leaves me thinking too far into what he is saying and it throws me off track. Less intelligent people get it. The smarter ones are like "What? How did you get that?". He won't explain his logic, he just refers u to a study group at a later time.

very great teacher.. he gives plenty of opportunities to help you out... he offers review sections at least one day a week.. he made the material so much easier to understand most of the time... when you ask him a question sometimes he will smart off and say it is in your note.. but all you need to do is ask him to go ahead and work it out again

Comment:
I hated him. He wouldn't answer questions, wouldn't help if I went to see him. Was a real jerk in class. Loves to talk about himself and spends way too much time doinf that instead of explaining things. Tests are very hard with lots of trick questions and things that don't have to do with the subject matter just to trip you up. Don't take him.

Comment:
Vindictive. Was refused retirement so he said he would make things as difficult for students as he possibly could and he did. It's not the students fault, his role is to help us learn, not try to make us fail. Run from this instructor.
