Try to keep up with her lecture, she speaks fast, but usually from the book. Very helpful when you ask questions. If you don't ask, she doesn't know you don't get it!! Little homework, no study guides or reviews, and personalized exams. Overall she's a good professor but just remember to ask for help if you need it, she'll work with you.

Here's the deal. I missed a writing assignment in her class (40 pts lost/800), and still managed to get the A I needed. Let me stress this: if you study BEFORE her lectures, you'll learn the material as well as she knows it. Forget the notes. READ THE TEXT, do the assignments WITH one inch margins (believe me), and you'll be *A+ OK.

Professor Gutierrez is an educated woman, and that is something she enjoys bragging about during her lectures. Her exams are extremely wordy and require you to memorize EVERY SINGLE WORD in the entire textbook. The only way you have a slight chance of passing her class is if you took Bio before and passed it with an A and are retaking it again.

The course is taken online this semester and I recommend to not take this teacher. She doesn't teach one bit, not live classes, no live zoom meetings, nothing. You have to teach yourself the work and the tests are very hard and some questions in the tests aren't included in the textbook chapter. This course is hard to pass.

This is honestly one of the worst classes I have ever taken. Albeit the class was online and the transition from physical to online classes is difficult, this is still a terrible class. I haven't learned a single thing from her directly. She assigns you crash course videos, Khan academy, and lectures from other professors and calls it a lesson.

If you care about yourself, you would not enroll in any class taught by her. She assigns a great deal of work, but she makes it unnecessarily difficult. She is not cooperative in any way, shape, or form, so be warned that if an emergency happens, she will be completely unconcerned. Her extra credit is donation blood and food. SELFISH WOMEN

DO NOT TAKE HER! My grade on assignment is 98 but on the test is 60. Her online class and lecture is waste. She said the other student cheated and removed her score multiple times when that student tried to explain that those noises from her neighbors bc she lived in apartment. You have to do the lab when she not guiding anything.

The professor is smart and she makes it well known. I barely passed, had to give plasma for extra credit to be able to make it. Labs are in person and lectures online about for half of the semester it was power point slides but towards the end she got lazy and it was just YouTube videos of other teachers in class. Talks mostly about her chickens.

No prep for exams, have to learn all on your own.

Lots of homework

This class is a very very tough class. I stayed in it thinking that I could pass it but i was definately wrong. Everything I by the book. the assignment are easy to comprehend but the test are nothing like the assignments. I felt like I haven't learned anything. Ive never been so confused with a class in my life.

I took her online class and I spent at least an hour or so every day studying and going over study modules and then when it came time for her chapter exams practically nothing that was in the study module was on the exams. She also grades super heavy on exams and not on homework so if you do bad on her exams pretty much no chance in passing.
