He's a nice guy, but his accent can come in the of understanding him. He only had 2 test, but be prepare to study for them. He makes it sound easy on the review, but it's not. If he tells you he will give you a multiple choice exam, dont believe him. There would only be 2 multiple choice questions and the rest are open question. Overall a nice guy.

It's hard to understand his lab lectures due to the accent but he's a good guy overall. Nice dude. The lab seems to have gotten away from him since it's a bit disjointed at times and he doesn't really corral the rowdy students too well. plus, he doesn't really tell you what to study for a test and you spend a lot of time studying for nothing.

This rating is for the MCB LAB. Prof. Amole is so much better in lab. I've taken every type of science lab at MDC and this one was by far the best. There are 2 quizzes (13 questions each), 1 Midterm (about 35 questions), and 1 Final (about 35 questions). His exams were pretty easy if you studied his study guide and read the sections he points out.

The fact that he is a nice, cool, sweet person does not have anything to do with his teaching abilities. It is difficult to understand him. And how he explains things isnt how he words them on his exams. So its confusing at times. Listen to the key points he talks about and then read the book! He doesnt use the book in class but it will help you.

*So as I was saying before i reached my word limit* Buy the book and read it on your own because it will help you understand what he is trying to get across to you. There are 4 exams in this class and he takes your highest grade and doubles it to take the place of one of your lowest grades. If you take the time to read the chapters you'll be fine.

I took him for lab. Let me just start off by saying that if you're not planning on becoming a Microbiologist, don't bother with this class. He expects you to learn everything to the T, doesn't help you at all, and the tests are EXTREMELY hard. He basically might have ruined my chances of attending Nursing school despite my effort to do well.

There is little to no homework and his explanations are very precise and clear. I've never had such a good understanding about biology. His PPTs are also very useful.
