What Students Say

All this professor do is gives long lecture and notes from too many power points and the notes are not even helpful for the tests I took her when I saw everyone on here going crazy about her with their comments and how easy she is but turns out to be the opposite she is so hard and she said he used to give out study guides for the tests but now no

By far one of the best Teachers I have had in college. The study guides are exactly what is on the test with no surprises. The information she provides on the board is what is on the study guides and tests. She is laid back and doesn't give very much homework. I would take her again and recommend to anyone, especially if you struggle with biology.

Had her in 2011 and she was such a good teacher that I remembered her as I was registering for my fall semester and decided to stop by and rate her.

Angel sent from Heaven. Gives study guides. Quiz every week in lab. Super nice and understanding. Lets you make up tests. One-two homework assignments before every test. Some of them are super long and only worth five points but go towards your test grade. I wish she taught all my classes.

She is an amazing professor. The exams were straight forward. Study guides are handed out well in advanced so there is plenty of time to study. She was a little disorganized but nothing too outrageous. Overall, great class and professor!

Amazing. I received an A and barely ever showed up to lecture. If you have to take Bio, take it with her. I wish she taught all my classes.

All this professor do is gives long lecture and notes from too many power points and the notes are not even helpful for the tests I took her when I saw everyone on here going crazy about her with their comments and how easy she is but turns out to be the opposite she is so hard and she said he used to give out study guides for the tests but now no.

If I can take her for every science class I need left, I would. I loved how she kept her lectures so interesting. The notes are EXACTLY what will be on the test so make sure u write everything she writes on the board. Never opened the book, just study the notes. If you miss a lecture you miss the notes so I recommend not skipping.

I wouldn't say shes hot but she's this cute little old lady that always shares funny stories. Gives you a study guide of what will exactly be on the test. Such a sweetheart. Take her class you will not regret it.

She is the best professor I've ever had at HFC. She is very specific on what is going to be on the lab and lecture tests. I wish she taught other science classes because I would take her again.

One of the cutest and sweetest old lady you'll ever meet. She's also very funny when it comes to her lectures because she'll discuss something and then compares it to a funny moment in her life. She made me love biology again, and I couldn't be more grateful for her.

Professor Bida is the sweetest and funniest instructor. Her lectures are engaging, and the tests are straightforward, based on her detailed study guides. Attending class is a must, and unstuck AI can be a great tool for exam prep.
