She assigns an extreme amount of homework, which makes studying for exams difficult. She is difficult to work with and takes a very hard stance on graded. Some of her policies were unclear which harmed my grade. I would not recommend taking her class if you can avoid it.
Instructor Knutsens class may have been difficult, but A&P is not an easy subject. She provided lots of extra credit, she was very accessible (quickly answered emails, lots of office hour time), and really cared about students. I learned so much and feel very prepared for a healthcare career. I recommend this class if you want to learn!
highly recommend this class
A&P is tough, but Prof. Knutsen helped students understand things clearly. She posts online lectures & answered questions in/outside office hrs. She graded exams & assignments quickly. She gave extra credit during the quarter and provided the opportunity to drop our lowest test grade. I felt she cared about me as a student & was a great professor!
She was extremely understanding and kind throughout the course. She is willing to meet with students outside of her office hours and will work with you one on one until you understand a subject. The course was difficult but I learned so much more this term with her as an instructor vs any of my other courses.
Professor Knutsen was available to help me when I was struggling and would always find time to fit my busy schedule. Her lettuces are clear and easy to comprehend and take notes off of. She is always looking for ways to help us learn better and if you have an idea that you think will help you learn the material she is always willing to help you try
While A and P can be difficult for many, Andrea's lectures, timely availability, and uncommon empathy give you the tools to succeed. I highly recommend her because she cares about her students and she makes all of the material easy and straightforward to understand.
Lots of work but great professor.
No a good instructor at all. Test heavy, hard grader. The exams 99.9% of the times don't make any sense. Her teaching style is confusing and hard.
Worst instructor I have ever hard in two years in college. Andrea tests are extremely hard, she is a hard grader. I would never recommend to anyone to take a class with this instructor. Andrea way of teaching caused me more stress than anything else. She provides a lot of extra credit assignments (the only good thing about this class). Awful.
Professor Knutsen's course is geared towards those working towards healthcare careers. I'm surprised reading negative reviews. She makes it very clear during lectures what specific concepts are to be seen on exams, gives an appropriate amount of homework for learning and many opportunities for EC. Clearly very invested in students' futures. 10/10
She's definitely one of the hardest instructors I've had, but also one of the best, you just gotta be willing to work hard. I wouldn't recommend taking any other time consuming classes at the same time though, because there's a lot of homework & exams are hard, but she provides all of the info needed in her lectures so take good notes.
Instructor Knutsen is great. She really cares about the education and success of her students. She provides ample opportunity to succeed with many helpful resources and office hour time to seek out help when warranted or just chat about interests. There is a lot of extra credit to take advantage of and it is not redundant, it really helps.
Andrea is very clear about the expectations of this class. There are plenty of extra credit opportunities to take advantage of if you are struggling. Tests are difficult and require studying but there are multiple ways to prepare for them from group tutoring time to exam study groups prior to exams. She has been the best instructor I have to date
I have taken her courses twice now and she is clear on what she is expecting and allows students to use their notes as she understands live is busy. She gives plenty of time to get your work done without feeling overworked or rushed. As long as you use the time given, you should have plenty of wiggle room if life gets busy that week.
The lectures are long in my option and there is a lot of information to obtain in a week through lectures alone. There is not a lot of homework, but there are a few of the same things graded every week. Your participation matters if you want a passing grade at least.
Its a heavy workload but expectations are clear.
Tests are tough but are on relevant content and helps prepare you to be a better student. There is lots to learn in this class and I think her teaching has helped me a lot.
Instructor Knutsen is an amazing teacher. She is always willing to lend a helping hand if you're able to connect during office hours. She is even willing to schedule time outside of these hours to go over items that may be confusing. She applies many teaching styles for those who learn in different ways. She is very kind and respectful.
Andrea was one of the most understanding teachers I have ever had. You get what you put in! She notices students who are trying and is willing to help out. Amazing teacher, when you put in the work!
Professor Knutsen makes intimidating subject material seem possible to understand. Her lectures are clear and easy to follow, the homework helps reinforce topics discussed. The class is laid out nicely, and she is prompt at grading assignments and responding to emails. She also offers several extra credit opportunities throughout the term.
Andrea Knutsen is a great professor. Anatomy is not like any of your other online classes. sometimes the lectures are so long and it can be hard to obtain all the information thrown at you. offer extra credit and offers ample opportunities to meet with her if you don't understand something. if don't get the help you need and fail its your fault.
She is an amazing professor who gives a lot of extra credit to help with grades. She is very understanding and helps all the students work around difficult personal situations. Truly cares about her student's mental health and grade in the class. Will go above and beyond to host study sessions, and tutoring sessions in her own time. 10/10!
Andrea really wants her students to succeed and goes out of her way to help everyone and each of us personally. One of my favorite teachers.
Don't expect any feedback on tests or work turned in. I mean zero. You don't get to see what you got right or wrong on any tests or assignments.
I have had Instructor Knutsen for three terms and will have her for 1 more. She has been amazing and has guided me when asked and has always made herself available to me when needed. I have learned much from her classes and feel that I will be successful in my future career as a nurse.
Andrea is an amazing teacher! Her classes are tough but you will learn a lot. The lecture exams and lab exams can be difficult of you are struggling with any of the material. Always reach out for help if you need to!
This is a demanding course, so going into it just be prepared for work. Instructor Knutsen is clear and concise. If you need help outside of office hours she does her best to be available with anything you may need. I highly recommend her, but please be aware if you do not stay on top of lectures and assignments you won't be very successful.
Certainly within my top 3 favorite professors (all time), lectures are well done, very accessible, quick feedback, well constructed course, looking forward to next terms class with this professor.
There is a lot of material to learn in her classes, however, if you stay on top of studying and assignments, you won't have a problem. The tests can be hard, but A&P is known to be that way. Andrea herself is super helpful and understanding. I feel like she actually cares if students do well or not.
Professor Knutsen is a performance-based educator. She is accessible for extra help with class work and course guidance. She grades fairly and offers occasional extra credit opportunities. Late work is not accepted, however the option is available to drop one exam score excluding the final exam. I have chosen her for all 4 of my Biology courses.
Would and will take classes with this instructor again.
This course has been very tough for me but Mrs. Knutsen has is very helpful, encouraging and understanding. She makes it known in every lecture that if you need help she is available and will do what she can to help you understand. I enjoy her teaching style and I would recommend her to other students.
She is amazing! Cares about her class and gives us all the support to succeed and learn everything.
Instructor Knutsen is really great at what she does! She takes the time to make sure her students know she is available if needed and that she is there to help them understand difficult topics. She provides ample opportunity to excel. The material she teaches is difficult but her teaching style makes it easy to understand.
She was a great instructor. She used subject matter relevant to the course, without adding tedious assignments unrelated to the course. It was also easier for me to understand the matter online because I felt I could work at my own pace. There were still deadlines, but I was able to spend more or less time studying depending on the difficulty.
This professor is an amazing teacher. She is understanding and considerate as long as there is a line of communication. She takes criticism well and offers extra credit with lessons that we will be working on.
Andrea Knutsen is easily my best professor to date. She is available, approachable, and shows compassion and understanding. Her course materials are very organized and easy to understand. There is no question what is expected, and I respect this greatly. I enjoy the courses I have taken with her and look forward to the next.
Andrea Knutsen is a great professor! She truly knows her stuff and you can tell she loves to teach. She gives lots and useful information during lectures so make sure to pay attention and take notes, and if you still aren't understanding something she is more than willing to help!
Professor Knutsen cares that you learn. She is very accessible for discussions of the material outside of normal class hours. She routinely offers optional evening tutorial sessions and study sessions before any tests. She lets you know what information is more valuable than other information. I can enthusiastically recommend her as an instructor
This is a great professor, although she uses an pearson learning which charges a fee. She also doesnt use the schools webpage for homework instead she uses a different server which is sometimes a pain to remember. It also a pain when you want to quickly view your grades
I loved professor Knutsen! She was so great and helpful whenever I needed help or had questions. Shes willing to work with students who has good communication. She really wants all her students to be successful and will try in any way she can to make that happen.
She is one of the better teacher's that I have had. I like her teaching style and she drops hints on what will be on the upcoming exam or lab exam. If you have any questions, she is more than happy to help answer them. I can tell that she enjoys teaching. I would recommend this teacher to anyone that is taking A&P.
She is a great instructor. Little tougher than I personally expected but it is an online course which she doesn't teach that much so she treats us the same as an in-school class which is to be expected.
Instructor Knutsen is a great teacher. I learned so much from her microbiology class. She offers many ways to learn through her lectures and assigned homework. She gives great feedback and is easy to reach via email and Zoom office hours. She is very fair, and if you put in the work, you will do well in the course.
I've had Andrea for four classes, this being my fourth, and she was an amazing professor. Just remember, you get out of it, what you put into it. Lectures are extremely important, and she is easily reached for questions or meetings as you need---10000% would recommend.
Professor Knutsen can be a tough professor, however, if you put in the effort and show that you're interested in actually learning the material, she is very helpful and accommodating. She is very eager for her students to succeed and in the 3 other courses I have taken with her, I felt supported by her and was successful in the class.
I felt this was a challenging course and would have been better suited as an in-person class (at least, for me). It felt more difficult because it was crammed into eight weeks instead of ten. Overall, instructor Knutsen knows her stuff and creates a good learning experience.
Really wants her students to succeed.
Instructions were clear. If I ever needed help then I could contact the teacher for instructions. Also there are a lot of extra credit opportunities.
Andrea Knutsen is a great professor, she is caring and understanding. The material is interesting and beneficial but very heavy and sometimes information is gone through quickly. With the experience thus far, I would recommend her courses whether that is online or in person.
I enjoy her classes very much! Would recommend to anyone, this is my fourth class by her and would take another if I could.
Instructor Knutsen is an amazing Instructor! This would be my 4th time taking a class with her (all three A&P and Microbiology) and I would 100% recommend taking her class. The course work is going to be decently heavy, but understandably. She is clear, concise, and provides many opportunities for you to succeed if you need the extra help.
I took all three terms of A&P with her and also Microbiology. She is a great teacher, yes the classes were hard but that was the material not how she presented it. She was very understanding and was always willing to meet outside of class hours to help me if I struggled. I truly will miss taking classes from her.
Instructor Knutson is very knowledgeable and understanding the material is very important. She has been very gracious and ready to help if asked.
She is caring and supportive. She wants all her students to succeed
Professor Knutsen does an excellent job at making difficult concepts easy to understand. She is always available to help if students do not understand something. Her microbiology course is rigorous, but she assures that you leave the course with a good understanding of the information covered. She offers many extra credit opportunities as well.
It is a good class, but I would recommend taking this class over the fall term. The lab would have been beneficial in enriching the understanding of the textbook.
She is a great professor. She is a tough grader but also is available anytime you really need her if you just reach out.
Pros: Intelligent professor, the course work gives a great understanding of anatomy. Cons: Ins. Knutsen is impossible to please. The large exams slowly chip your grade away. No feedback on tests unless you come to office hours, she also never tells you what kind of answers she is looking for--only that yours is wrong.
This professor is tough but she teaches you a lot. She helps you to become more responsible and be a better student. She knows what she is doing and I love taking her class.
Andrea Knutsen is a very knowledgable instructor. She covers a lot of material in a term, but she offers a lot of support to ensure you are successful in her class.
This professor assigns a lot of homework, weekly. There is no real way to get ahead if you are working a full time job whilst also taking other classes. I was turned away from office hours for "coming by her office during office hours." I thought the point of office hours was for students to stop by and ask questions? Study guides are not helpful.
If you want to retain information and use it to pursue your future A&P classes and other classes, then this is the professor you want. This is one of the very few classes where I can leave and feel confident that I learned things. Everything we learned was represented on the test. She is very respectful and clear.
Lectures are informative along with power points these helps with better understanding of concepts. This is my first time taking this course and look forward to taking more classes from Professor Knutsen!
I absolutely love this teacher. She made my experience great. 12/10 would recommend!
Professor Andrea Knutsen gives a lot of material and is strict with deadlines BUT she is exceedingly kind and I believe there is nothing that she is being tough about for no reason. She gives numerous extra credit opportunities. One of the best teachers I've had.
Meet with teacher if having problems
This instructor is quite determined and cares deeply about each student's success. Her lectures are quite long. However, she is mindful and respectful of both your time and the portion dedicated to learning. Her preparation within this section has been incredibly helpful. Overall, she is an amazing teacher and person.
Teaching is based a lot around lectures than labs or hands on activities. Presentations show a lot of information. Good job presenting material clearly, but a lot of rewording; difficult to understand. The study guides could be more specific, too broad and it's more likely for students focusing too much on material that really isn't part of exams.
She likes participation and questions during lectures. Taking notes helps.
This professor is good and she's easy to understand because of her well explained lectures. Theres a lot of lab activities that are helpful to understand material being taught. Gives out a lot of extra credit opportunities. Timed online tests can be a little short, but are open note/book
Make sure that you have clear communication, and don't be afraid to reach out to her. She is willing to work with you if you are honest, and out in the effort.
Andrea is awesome!! She makes complicated subjects easy to understand. She gives lots of extra credit opportunities. She also great at helping us know what to study.
Anatomy is a very tough subject, and it really makes a difference when you have an instructor who teaches with a good teaching style, clearly, in ways you can understand, and who cares about their students success. Which is exactly what professor Knutsen does.
The professor expects a lot out of her students and there is a lot of material to cover. Overall the class is great and I would take her class again!
Andrea Knutsen was an amazing professor. She was always willing to go on a zoom call if you needed anything or even meet outside of class in person. She was very helpful and explained things thoroughly.
Great professor. Definitely holds you accountable for staying on top of the material. As long as you come to class and focus on your work you should do well. She provides a lot of extra credit opportunites that help you learn the material better and maintain a good grade.
She was an amazing Professor! She really took the time to explain everything clearly through lectures. The course is of course not easy but she does everything she can to help you succeed. I am sad to say this is my last term with her in A&P, never thought I would say that, but she really made this tough course manageable and I was able to pass.
Andrea is super kind and caring. She loves teaching and making sure that her students understand the concepts. She offers tons of extra credit opportunities. The extra credit opportunities really help you learn the material and study for the upcoming exams. Andrea is absolutely the best instructor I have ever had.
Professor Knutsen expects a lot from her students but assignments and materials are never a surprise. She hands out an excel spreadsheet with every topic and homework for the term outlined with clear due dates. She sends announcements, reminders, and study guides for tests. I wish all teachers were as organized as her.
She is a hard grader but if you watch the Lectures, read your book, and pay attention to her study guides that she hands out the test will come easier to you.
Professor was awesome! Clear lectures (also on you tube for easy access HUGE plus). Quick to grade and a give feedback. Very available if needed. Clearly knows how to teach an online course. VERY VERY well done.
I personally enjoyed every term with this professor, I had her class multiple times and was very satisfied and definitely would take her class again.
I've had Andrea Knutsen for several classes, she is hands down my favorite instructor. She does an excellent job making difficult subjects easy to understand.
Loved her in person classes!
Andrea is very helpful, caring, and full of information. She is always willing to answer any questions you have and help you out as much as you need. She makes herself available to students when they need help or to talk to her. She was an amazing teacher!
This professor offers tons of extra credit throughout the course. Use it all. Study and plan for zero notes. She's so fun and so helpful. Easy to reach out to and offers tutoring days most weeks. This course has a lot of information to take in, but she is amazing at explaining.
I find that this professor truly puts her students first. Her lectures are exceptional and interesting. I loved taking this course. Although this material was challenging at times, her feedback significantly helped me. Her responses were positive and helpful. Overall, her personality truly is genuine. She made the classroom environment comforting.
Andrea has been a complete joy to be educated by. She has taught me a lot and I look forward to any other classes I take with her as the professor.
Andrea Knutsen was a great teacher, I definitely struggled in the class but she gave me every opportunity to help my grade. She offered extra credit as well as different material to help me understand the material.
The subject itself is tough, so taking this course online has its challenges. She is very smart and the lectures provided me with the information I needed in order to complete the homework. Given a lot of opportunities for extra credit really made the difference. Knutsen has made this summer term very organized and timely for each assignment.
I appreciate Andrea Knutsen as a professor. She almost always gives you feedback on assignments
I really appreciated how she made sure we did our work with detailed precision, and showed grace when we did not. The extra credit was a big bonus.
I would highly recommend taking Instructor Knutsen's classes! She gave feedback on all assignments, as well as multiple extra credit opportunities. Her lectures were very helpful, and she responds to emails/ questions very quickly. I am excited to take her Anatomy classes in the future!
Instructor Knutsen provides multiple opportunities to improve your grade. Her tests are very difficult, but you come out of the class with a lot of knowledge!
I had a great experience with Professor Knutsen as my instructor. Although there was a lot of material to cover, it was all well-organized and easily accessible. I especially appreciated the extra credit opportunities she provided.
I like that instructor Knutsen makes the grading and work ethic criteria clear from the beginning of the start of the course. There is no questioning as all answers are stated directly in syllabus. I think extra credit opportunity is great considering this is a crammed course during summer term. The only downfall was not being able to work ahead.
This instructor makes sure you have all of the information you will need throughout the course. Instructions and expectations are very clear from the very beginning. The subject itself is tough and her tests can be difficult, but you do learn a lot. She also provides many extra credit opportunities which is great.
I like that there is no questioning as all answers are stated directly in syllabus. I think extra credit opportunity is great considering this is a crammed course during summer term. I wish you were able to work ahead though.
This was one of the most harder classes I've taken, I do recommend to take Micro alone. I liked that you were able to get extra credit.
If she allows EC I would take advantage of it if are not a good tester.
I have taken profesor Knutsen for multiple courses, and though her class can be very difficult at times and a lot of material I learned a lot. a helpful note for those that plan on taking any of her classes is focusing on her lecture videos. The lecture videos will help you out tremendously.
great class, fair grading, difficult assignments
Andrea is an extremely knowledgeable professor who helps you UNDERSTAND the material she teaches. She is so caring and respectful and she doesn't make you feel dumb for asking questions. I now have a strong foundation of genetics to bring to Nursing school next term. I wish I could've taken Micro and A&P with her! SOCC is VERY lucky to have her!!
I did not meet my professor in person because I did take this class online. I took it during summer which means I only had 7 weeks to learn rather than 11 weeks. Doing full time school and work was extremely hard. Although I do recommend this class and professor I do not recommend to take it during summer as their is a lot to learn
I took this class online and the results of our weekly quizes and homework were hidden so we could not see the questions that we got wrong. This made it difficult to study the material that I needed to work on because I was unsure which questions I had gotten wrong.
Andrea Knutsen is well-organized. She provides timely feedback to questions and has a very structured course. The work is somewhat intensive, but in a good way, I really feel like I gained valuable knowledge from taking her course.
Lectures are key to this class. Luckily, she has great lecture videos!
The professor made navigating the materials much easier than I anticipated. I took her BI234 class during summer term, which was challenging but the way she has the course set up made it very manageable.
Professor Knutsen was very responsive when I needed help. She is willing to set aside time for you to help you understand the material and she grades assignments quickly which is a big thing for me.
Very informative and always willing to help if any issues arise. Very responsive to emails as well.
Instructor is passionate and knowledgable about subject. Offers numerous extra credit opportunities throughout the course. Difficult to receive feedback on exams. answer keys provided often times don't match homework assignments (using answer keys from previous classes that don't match our current assignments).
I liked this class and I learned a lot so thank you! :)
Great professor who wants you to succeed. Provides extra credit opportunities in the form of study guides which really help you grasp the material even better.
Will definitely be using this professor again, had a lot of knowledge to share and was understanding when I had some major life events come up with helping me finish out the course.
Will certainly use this professor again, had some real life issues that arose that she was understanding about and helped me work through to finish the term. Also gives quick and helpful feed back on assignments as they come up.
She was an excellent teacher and provided a variety of tools to ensure you could pass the class. She did a good job of communicating with students throughout the course.
Andrea is a wonderful instructor! She responds very quickly with questions/ concerns, and makes you feel heard. Your learning and understanding are very important to her, whether the topic may be difficult or easy. I have enjoyed taking courses with her and have recommended her to others!
Andrea was an awesome professor! She has a lot of office hours and will work with you to do zoom or in person meetups. She offers extra study classes. She provides every tool possible to make sure her students succeed. I took her microbiology course and I had her for all three terms of A&P. I plan to take her genetics class next year.
Professor Knusten, is a great teacher. If you respect her she'll respect you back. She wants us to all succeed in class, but we have to put in the time and also effort. Gives us many opportunities to raise our grade or maintain a good grade in her class, she makes the labs really fun but also hard at the same time. Great professor overall!
I respect that Professor Knutsen makes sure we have ample opportunities to understand the materials and ask many questions both in the classroom amd during tutoring times. She truly cares for her students and we couldnt ask for a better professor. Thank you for everything you do for us!
This course is challenging but you will learn a lot! The teacher is very knowledgeable and is able to help when needed
She is very organized and clearly lays out the itinerary for the entire term, additionally lays out weekly plans every Monday. Is very open, a great listener, and a kind soul. Wonderful example of how being friendly and respectful to someone can benefit you later: she can be convinced (by the whole class) to allow notes or book during exams.
She gives lots of extra credit and will work with you on your grade! The work you put in will definitely determine the grade you get!
Andrea is an exceptional professor who excels at teaching. Her dedication to her students' learning is evident, and she is always ready to help if you're struggling with the material. Overall, the class was both challenging and rewarding, and I learned a lot while having fun.
My professor has a really solid grasp of the content and is able to break it down in a clear, organized way. Her teaching style seems focused on providing comprehensive information while also keeping things concise and easy to follow. Overall, she is a good, sometimes the class can be overwhelming with the information each week, but I understand.
I have learned so much! Thank you for being you!
I took Professor Knutsen's class in person for all 3 anatomy + physiology courses. She is the BEST professor/teacher I have EVER had. Not only is her knowledge extensive, her manner as a teacher and person, is exceptional. She is extremely caring about her students and want to actively help them however she can.
This professor is very helpful. There is a lot of information to cover so remember that when reading and taking lecture notes. She gives lots of help and extra credit opportunities. Take advantage of her office hours. I would take all my classes with instructor Knutsen if I could.
The lecture in this class are full of information, but the professor takes the time to make sure everyone understands. This teacher knows her stuff and it shows. I would recommend this class and professor to anyone.
I have had the pleasure of taking Professor Knutsens' courses for the last two terms and I would absolutely take more courses with her. She delivers the material in easy to understand formats, and provides ample opportunity to grow your understanding of the material through office hour availability and extra credit. Great teacher overall!
Do the extra credit because your grade can go down drastically if you don't do good on a test. Tests can feel intense but have all your resources ready to go beforehand because they help a lot and many of the essay questions come from the PowerPoint which is nice. Learned a lot and the class is very doable!
I loved all classes I've taken with Prof. Knutsen so far, and I plan on taking more. The structure and material of the class is clearly laid out and easy to follow. Much extra credit is given, and I recommend doing the EC as the material there was very helpful for the tests.
The classwork and lectures were very smooth and consistent. She explains her lectures well and takes time to help her students learn.
Amazing professor who is very educated. She is very thorough with her lectures and lays all needed information out.
As long as you do what is asked on the syllabus then you should be fine. If you can do the extra credit then do it! It has been the only reason that my grade has stayed at the 90 percentile, a high one too, and has been a great cushion for when I am struggling on some materials.
What I really appreciate about Andrea Knutsen is her ability to teach for every style of learning. Whether you learn by reading, listening, or a visual learner she accommodates your needs. She is always available and willing to help you succeed in your studies. Despite this being a very difficult subject for me, I learned a lot. She's phenomenal!
She is an amazing instructor. She cares about the students and goes out of her way to help. She has a passion for teaching. She grades exams very fast and her response to email is very timely.
Instructor Knutsen's teaching style is easy to follow and allows you to learn from online lecture videos as well as from reading the textbook. The extra credit study guides are very helpful when it comes to open book/note for the exams and are a great guide when following along with the lectures.
The course was easy to navigate. Professor Knutsen always laid out everything needed for you to succeed in the course. From the lectures, to study guides, lots of extra credit opportunities. Everything was conveyed well and I enjoyed my time and I learned a lot.
Good professor and does a good job making a very difficult subject as easy to grasp for us A&P newbies as she can !
She certainly gives a lot of homework, but when you have that much homework on the weekly topics it stays with you better than other classes do with less homework. She is very helpful if you reach out for help or needing anything! I enjoyed this class and she covers all of the material.
this professor is delightful to interact with in person. She offers ample extra credit opportunities, and a heavy load of homework. Don't worry, it is all information you want to repeatedly go over for your exams. I highly recommend her. This is my fourth class as her student and I am going to miss her.
She is awesome and super nice!!
She is super sweet and offers a lot of extra credit
Strongly recommend
This class was hard due to the amount of information that comes at you in a very short period of time, but I appreciate that Andrea Knutsen was able to cover most things in a way that I could understand. There is a lot of homework, and exams are hard. She offers ample extra credit opportunities and is quick with grading and kind with her feedback.
This professor gives very informative lectures and plenty of extra credit opportunities. She delivers the information clearly and makes it easy to understand the lessons.
Great teacher!
One of my favorite proffesoers!
I loved how organized and easy it was to follow. It was very consistent. There are many opportunities to do extra credit to keep a good grade. The lectures were easy to follow.
This professor presents difficult material in a fun and engaging manner. By offering several different learning materials, such as study guides, lab activities, class activities, group projects, and class assignments, students are able to access multiple ways to retain the information. Andrea Knutsen is a fantastic professor!
This professor made the class and its information easy to understand and fun to learn. Overall I couldn't ask for anything more.
Professor Knutsen teaches in a way that is easy to understand and learn. She gives ample learning time and ample chances for success. I appreciated her effort and abilities.
I have had Professor Andrea Knutsen fall, winter, and spring. She is a great instructor and her lectures are very helpful. Anatomy and Physiology are hard materials to learn and she makes it enjoyable and easy to learn. She also provides so many resources for help and extra credit.
She was great!
This professor has a gift for explaining very complex material. I rate the course as difficult because the material is complex, but you will have a full understanding of the complex material and have fun learning it.
Instructor Knutsen is extremely knowledgeable in her field of study and always provides time to online students when she can. Her courses are loaded with content to learn and memorize and she will assist students if asked. The study guides will help, use them!
Mrs. Knutsen is a great lecturer and is great and explaining things in detail so that they are easy to understand.
She is a very good instructor. Very knowledgeable and if you try you will pass. She has lots of extra credit (which are study guides) which help with understanding material. She is great at answering questions and has provided feedback on each assignment. She will grade almost immediately as well which is super helpful.
I very much liked Professor Knutsen. Very good teaching style. She gives extra credit. There is lots of homework but it ingrains the subject into your memory. She is very easy to talk to and will stop and answer questions and if you do not understand it she will go over the topic again.
I enjoyed this class, I also appreciated that Andrea was very well organized and had every assignment due date printed out on the syllabus so we knew what to expect.
Andrea Knutsen is a fantastic professor. She is knowledgeable of her content area. She is consistent. She provides excellent feedback. She is thoughtful of the materials that are present in lecture to help us succeed. She creates a classroom atmosphere that is kind, safe, and respectful. She has a great sense of humor. I've loved her class.
Professor Knutsen is a fantastic instructor who makes complex material engaging and easy to understand. The course is challenging but rewarding, and Unstuck AI proved to be a helpful study tool alongside the class resources.
Professor Knutsen is an advocate for her students. She wants them to succeed and learn the material, so she provides so many opportunities to practice and be involved. I really enjoy learning from her. She lectures most of class, but makes it engaging. There are scheduled group projects, and dissections, too, so you know what to look forward to.
Professor Knutsen is awesome! She is very welcoming and personable. It can be a bit daunting getting into the swing of things due to the homework expectations each week along with other commitments but once you know what to expect it's easy! A&P was very easy this term only because of her guidance and help.
Over words her entire course to tge point of mental exaughtion trying to figure out what truly actually pertains to microbiology. Treats students horribly but expects upmost respect. When emailing has a very condescending tone. Do not take this professor of your looking for a fair grade- she doesn't allow you to see your exam results.
