Professor Nesterovitch is funny, he does have a thick accent so if you have issues understanding accents then be mindful His lectures the full time and does labs as a group. His power points for 1408 were some of the best powerpoints I've seen, clearly marked and important information highlighted. overall would recommend, but you have to attend.

Professor Nesterovich makes Biology II simple. The reviews he gives are nearly identical to the tests. The labs/ lab work are almost always able to be completed and submitted as a group. There is no homework, so aside from the normal studying, it's a breeze. His powerpoint's contain all the test material and is always willing to help you if you ask

Dr. Nesterovitch cares about his students in his own funny way. He offers extra credit opportunities and provides a hint review before each test that he lets you voice record (SUPER helpful) 4 lecture tests (60Q), 1 lab exam, lab notebook, a presentation and a final. Not a demanding class and he is willing to help you out if you put in the effort

Professor Nesterovitch is a very smart man and sometimes I feel like plain old BIOL is too simple for him. He does his lectures with PowerPoints but there are many slides and so much information. I often would just go through the slides on my own time since he would go through them quite fast. He is very caring for his students and jokes around.

This class was fairly easy. There are 4 tests during semester, reviews are very helpful, the final includes same questions from those 4 tests + 10 additional from last two chapters. Lectures were interesting

I took his online class you can tell that he is still figuring out how everything works but thats fine. during his zoom meetings I am usually on my phone because it does not really matter if you listen or not. All of the questions are on quizlet same with his assignments. You will have to do one presitation which was also very easy.

Yes, Dr. Nesterovitch has a heavy accent and at times is hard to understand, however, that heavy accent makes you listen more. I think he was an awesome professor. He is a tough grader who is very particular about the smallest details. I would definitely take him again if I could.

He's not so bad of a person as it sounds but he can be complicated to communicate with at times. He's very repugnant with answering questions from his students. And his grading process is so difficult. But, due to covid the class was set up as Bimodal with lectures online and Labs face-to-face. So the class was flexible at times.

Professor Nesterovitch is a good professor. Stay on top of the assignments. Ask for clarification if something is unclear. Put in the effort and you'll do well.

I was expecting Professor Nesterovitch to be tough based on the rates I have seen on here but in reality, he is really cool. I did hybrid so the lectures were online and the lab was in person. He provides audio with the lectures which aren't that long (only has 50 slides or sometimes less) and great videos to watch to better explain the material.

Professor Nesterovitch is an amazing professor. Yes, his presentations have a lot of information and are long (80+ slides per presentation) but he covers everything in his lecture in a way everybody can understand. Going to all his lectures will really help you since he points out what will come in the exam.

he was overall a genuinely funny/caring guy, but a lot of things made the class stressful. He went over 60+ slides every lecture and the tests were each 60 questions. His slides were good and simple to understand but get ready to study because there is ALOT to go over. There isn't too many assignments but he is a tough and detailed grader.

Honestly this class was made so fun for me I completely enjoy it. Unfortunately I did not make the grade I wanted because I didn't pay attention but he makes learning fun. I remember for one assignment he made us go outside and do a nature scavenger hunt and it was so fun. I definitely recommend taking his class and I can say for sure that I will.

For context just transferrred to UT Austin. His class is comparable to a university level course. I found he made his lectures enjoyable. His tests come from the slides lectured in class and most of it is memorization. Keeping up with your lab notebook is key. I read the textbook to have two rounds of exposure of the material. Do this.

His passion for biology is evident in his teaching, and he demonstrates that passion to his students. making himself available to students, he ensures that all students understand what's being taught (ASK QUESTIONS, he'll answer them). He sets a high standard for excellence that is attainable by all. I pray God blesses him abundantly.

His class was not difficult, and everything was online. His syllabus demonstrates all the information that is expected. He cares about his students, and he gives honest feedback. The professor always gives out exam reviews to prepare for.

I'm not the best learner and his class was very difficult for me but when I couldn't take an exam he opened it up for me the next day even though he had no obligation to. If you can do the assignments and make sure to actually watch his videos where he literally gives specific instructions on how to do each one you will succeed. He is not rude

Dr. Nesterovitch is intelligent and caring. Thoroughly enjoyed his class. Clear & direct instructions on what he wants. Textbook & recorded lectures for your convenience. Challenges you just enough to make the class enjoyable. Gives extra credit as an incentive if you show up on time. Tough Russian character but sweet at heart !

Great professor. Took me about 2 weeks to get used to his accent. Listen during lecture b/c he will say which slides will be on the exam. Gives GREAT study guides for exams. He's willing to go out of his way to help students and offers post exam analysis (highly recommend). Offers a lot of extra credit. As he likes to say, "anything for students!"

Expects students to follow instructions. Pretty easy with grading as long as you put forth effort. WebEx videos every Monday with Lab and Project instructions. Easy going, but does not put up with laziness on assignments. Pay attention and follow instructions and you will be fine. Exams require lockdown browser, but are not proctored. Recommend!

Don't let the accent scare you, he will resay anything you don't understand and he is funny. He is a little tough but gives plenty of opportunities to get a great grade. Gives good test reviews! would recommend getting in a good lab/study group in the first day and you will do fine. Would highly recommend!
