I was scared to take A&P 1 because it was an online class, but if you have to take A&P 1, I recommend Professor Imholtz. He truly cares about his students and gives extra credit! Anatomy is a hard class but watch the videos and do the textbook reading and youll do fine! He is literally the greatest bio teacher at PGCC.

I was SCARED to take A&P. You hear a lot of stories about how hard these classes are. Prof Imholtz made this class interesting and I loved that. I enjoyed doing the pictures for homework. it helped when it came to studying for quizzes and exams. I definitely recommend Prof Imholtz. If I could take him for A&P I would.

Hes very organized. The class is hard, but he really breaks it down for you to understand. He has a lot of extra credit quizzes, so do them all. The exams are very hard, but you can do well if you study. He makes lecture videos for each section of the class and they are very detailed. Great teacher! he knows his stuff.

Lots of homework

Prof. Imholtz was an amazing teacher! I took him for A&P 1 and the entire class was online. He gives TONS of extra credit that will help you out and as long as you are making an effort and in constant communication he will do what he can to help. It was a very pleasant way to enter into the anatomy world and I would recommend him to anyone.

Professor Imholtz is an amazing professor. The class is online with weekly lecture and lab videos. He gives extra credit within the videos so you have to watch and pay attention. The lab quizzes were more so memorization of body parts which is hard if you don't study but overall he wants his students to pass, and he responds quick to emails.

To study for this class requires a lot of focus and 0 distractions! He's a great professor who made learning A&P fun but to study, utilize the lab manual, make flashcards, go over the slides, and definitely watch the videos he post because those help way more and breakdown what's being taught & for lectures everything is in the notes and videos.

The best professor ever! Don't procrastinate to study when taking this class and it does require reading and listening to videos but it gets better when you get it over with. Please utilize reading the lab manual, make flashcards, and watch the videos he post because it helps a lot. For lecture, everything is included in the notes and videos.

Okay, I am not going to lie and say I did not struggle at the beginning of his classes but I got the hang of his teaching style. He posts all his lectures and labs on youtube and gives extra credit through there so make sure you do those because THEY COUNT! Study all you can, it counts. He makes his lectures and labs digestible and understandable.

Hands down the best professor for BIO2050! If I could take his class for 2060 I would. You have to apply yourself no doubt, but all the info you need he provides. A&P is not an easy topic in general but Professor Imholtz made it so much fun to learn.

Great professor, great lecturer. Takes the time to explain during lectures, answers questions clearly, and will not allow students to leave class with any misunderstanding or vagueness. Would take Professor Imhlotz for all my classes if I had the option.

BIO 2060 is an intense course, but with Prof. Imholtz, it is very possible to achieve. You can't fail this class because he provides you with all the information you will need to succeed in his very detailed lab and lecture videos. In class, he answers all questions without rushing you. I wish he taught Micro, but he doesn't. Highly recommended.
