She's one of the best teachers CCP has. She has an infectous personality. She outlines the textbook and gives you handouts, I took her during summer and it was pie; however, I do love science and it's my major so I find it easier than most.

She is a very intelligent professor and loves to teach.

I had Perry for BIO109 in the Summer and the reason I received a 78 was because of my fault , it was summer I didnt study enough and I was missing out on her extra credits which I totally regret . Shes a good teacher so i took her again more focused on a hybrid course for BIO109. Currently 8 weeks in and I have a 86%. She makes learning fun !

She does not care how or what you do, she's here to read off her two page chapter summary and leave early. She was not even a nice person; I had a question about the book on the very first day to which she gave me no answers, and a death stare for some reason. At the end, I had 89.40, she put down a B! She's a living, walking, talking "mean girl".

Professor Perry is not easy such as chapters' quizes plus 4 exams. The questions on her assignments not only multiple choices, True/False, and you have to type answers. It's a lot, BUT on the end of the semester you will understand the material. She really loves to teach Biology.

She actually teaches!Do the outlines and study them its all on the test. Makes notes on outline during class.

I took biology 110 during the summer so there was a lot of information in little time. Professor Perry is a wonderful teacher who explains every concept in a way you can understand! Tests are short I answer, T/F or matching so you really need to KNOW the material. If you wanna really learn & will put in the work, take her you wont regret it!

Professor Perry gives as many tips, resources and ways to study as possible. You must earn your grade, but she gives ample time to study the material and learn the work. As long as you study, you'll pass. Professor Perry answers emails within a sufficient amount of time. She is also very understanding and will work with you the best way she can.

I am still currently in the middle of the semester with this Professor, but she is AWESOME ! She is nice and patient, all you gotta do is show up to class/lab, do your work, do well on quizzes (which aren't even long) and do your best with the tests given. She literally gives out the reviews a week before an exam, more than enough time to study.

Professor Perry is one of the best A&P teachers at CCP. She makes lectures and exam reviews super interesting! She uses Study guides in order to retain the information instead of making you read long boring chapters. Whatever she says will be on the exams she prepares you for. Great studying tips &extra credit assignment at the end of the semester.

Professor Perry was great, this was a hybrid class and attendance was only mandatory on Mondays. If you do the work, you will succeed. She does offer extra credit; I wish there was a late policy. I was late on a lab and still turned it in but got a zero. Make sure you turn your assignments in on time. Her lectures are clear and simplified.

Took her class Spring 2024. I've never been good at Bio but her as a teacher was great. She truly enjoys what she teaches and has a really positive attitude. She's always willing to help(I just don't like asking, which explains my grade). I would take her again. She's very understanding and encourages involvement. Pay attention, and you'll do fine.

Professor Perry was amazing. She provided many study guides as homework, and labs were in class and online. Her lectures were great and it went through what we did for homework. Labs are in sync with lectures. Only bad thing is the lab manual and textbook expenses. We barely used lab book in lab, probably three times total. Textbook was used for HW

Prof Perry was an amazing professor, she gives study guide outlines for exams, doesn't test you on things you haven't learned, exams very reasonable not super hard with a million questions. Very approachable when it comes to asking questions. Exams are most important in this class because she doesn't really assign a lot of work.
