Hard but really knows her stuff

Hard but really knows her stuff

The AP courses are challenging to say the least. However,you are in good hands with Diane. She was always available after class and during office hours to answer my questions. Excellent professor!

micro 210 is a tough class, but way fun, challenging, but Diane teaches great! i love her A&P class too, but it's even harder than micro. study hard, and you'll do well. she's a great teacher!

Took Diane for AP 104 and took 2 cadaver anatomy classes with her at Bastyr! What an awesome teacher!!! Very hard and knows her stuff

She was great. I took her online class and loved it! it wasnt too hard or too easy, you just had to read the chapters and study!She also had lots of extra credit!

The format of this class is very structured and she's quick to provide grades and post notes for this online class. She does not provide much extra information on blackboard, but if you do the reading, then you'll be okay. She is very clear in the assingments and offers extra credit throughout the quarter in the quizzes and discussion boards.

She really knows her stuff to say the least! and she is very helpful and her study guides are crystal clear and they make up 100% of the material on tests

She knows her stuff and can teach it! Her class is tough but you will learn a lot. She is really nice and very helpful. Best teacher I have ever had.

Dr. Pelletier is a tough cookie, but she knows her stuff. Make sure you feel REALLY sure of yourself if you are going to talk to her. She is super smart, and really a pretty great teacher.

Diane was a fabulous teacher! I took an online class and with the post assignments for the week and reading material you were more than prepared for the tests. You are basically teaching yourself but Diane is available to answer your questions and will explain things clearly. I loved the post assignments! She also allowed for extra credit.

Diane is such a wonderful, knowledgeable teacher. I took this class online, and enjoyed the weekly post assignments. If you keep up with the reading, you'll be prepared for the tests every week. If you have any questions, she can answer them perfectly. Very good class!

I took Diane's class online. I really did enjoy it. You have to read the chapters in depth the online post assignments are hard but not to bad if you have read the chapters. Just beware the tests are really really hard. The way she writes the questions can be very confusing.

Very helpful, if you study the given material you should do great!

Diane is a great teacher. She definitely wants her students to succeed. She is very challenging, her tests can be difficult; it requires a lot of studying. However, she really is a great teacher.

This was by far the easiest science class I took. It was an Online AP Human Survey class and it was SO simple and I learned alot. You have one assignment a week, it isnt SUPER big but it definitely doesnt take too long to do. Then a quiz at the end of the week. Super great class, easy A. Highly Recommend If Taking Online!

Her AP100 is great prep for her other ap classes. Her enthusiasm and overall charisma are infectious. (Didn't think I'd miss her classes THIS much!) Enjoyed her occasional personal stories. Tests always seemed slightly harder than expected. Use the myaandp website practice quizes and tests and review her notes for good scores!

I took Diane's class for ap 100 level and 200 level as well as microbiology. I thought she was a wonderful teacher and was always willing to help. I was challenged in her classes but did very well due to the course work and her help.

I took both BIO 241 and 242 with Diane. Both classes were very challenging. But if you attend class regularly and keep up with your reading, you will succeed in the class! Tests were pretty difficult, so make sure you review your notes and the textbook! Diane is very helpful and will help you if you are struggling.

The online course is great! Easy, simple, not difficult but also you end up learning, so that's good! If you need this class, take it online. You'll save tons of time because this class is the way to go if you need AP 100. =)

I really enjoyed my time with Dr. Pelletier. She is a very good, very helpful instructor that excels at giving her students opportunities to "dig a little deeper" into the material. If you want to learn, you want Dr. P for your instructor. Be aware her exams are very, very challenging. You will be thinking and re-thinking every answer carefully!!

Class was surprisingly easy. You must read the book (or at least know the chapter summaries) to get good grades on your quizes. She is an easy grader as long as you do the work. I took this class online and you REALLY have to try to do bad in this class.

I am taking AP100 online with her and it is very easy, yet informative. My only complaint is that she has problems using the online class format. Quizzes are often posted late and she NEVER responds to emails. Also, quizzes are posted on Friday and due Sunday, so you will have to work on the weekend.

Had her for 241 & 242 and she is really awesome! Her exams and quizzes are always over material we've covered, she's easy to approach for help, and she's a really GREAT teacher. A must take!

Dr. Pelletier is awesome!! She is very informative, extremely knowledgeable, and cares for her student's success. Her lectures are in depth and interesting, and her labs actually get you engaged and into the material. Her exams and quizzes are very cerebral, so bring your "A game" and study hard. You will learn a lot in her classes! Enjoyed it!

Diane is easily the best lab professor I have ever had. She is very easy going and understands the value of comfort for her students in this stressful class. She doesn't make the class harder than it needs to be like professors tend to do. The labs arent hard but you must attend every one of them. Dont be scared of micro, just get a good professor!

I was nervous to take this class because I am not good at science. It is by far my worst subject. BUT I am actually doing pretty well in her online class. I find that the post assignments are fairly easy. Her tests are okay, not easy but not hard easy. She just words things differently than the book which threw me off a little bit. Good teacher!

Challenging class, prof wants her students to understand topics and uses different methods to convey info. Lab class attendance is critical. Study lecture notes and review text book and you'll do well. She is very knowledgeable, has a great sense of humor and makes the class interesting.

Diane is extremely knowledgeable in this subject. She doesn't lecture very much, but provides hands on ways to learn and understand new information. She expects you to work for your grade. If you read the textbook and come to class every day, you will do fine.

Diane is a great teacher. Her lectures may kind of be boring, but it's easy to follow along. For the tests, all of the questions are derived from the chapter guide that she provides, some from class discussions. I honestly never read the book to avoid over thinking on the test. Also, you can ask her anything question related to lecture.

Diane is very knowledgeable, but her student ends up doing 90% of the work on their own. She covers about half of what should be covered in lecture and then it is up to you to read about and become familiar with the rest to the point that you would be comfortable being tested on it. Tests are very very hard. Wonderful person, not so great teacher.

These health Science classes are challenging but rewarding. Diane made me work for my 3.0!

Diane is fantastic, though she expects you to be on top of it. She is very helpful and kind when you need questions. Make sure, if you take this class, that you read the entire syllabus within the first couple days because she starts out with a bang. Read all of the material that she gives outside of the textbook, it's important. She was very clear

I think Diane is a better teacher than people give her credit for. She clearly loves science. She has high expectations, but in the real world, employers expect professional work. This is good practice. Most of the pts are in the hw & labs, so a test shouldn't ruin your grade. Lab reports are typed with citations. Be sure to turn things in on time.

Great class! Exciting and enthusiastic lectures, clear instructions, enjoyable. Got a 4.0.

Diane makes you work for your grade. She indeed expects a lot from you but is not very hard as people say. She is tough in her instructions but not her subject matter. She gave a whole quiz and a discussion as n extra credit to cover up the grade!

Professor Diane expects a lot for her students. The workload is pretty heavy for a 100 level course . The Discussion board are graded tough. She offers a lot of extra credit almost 65 points

Diane's one of the best professors I've had at GRC. She's very organized; goes out of her way to send weekly agendas, updates, etc. Yes, there's a lot of work, but repetition and critical thinking help to remember the info (and there's a lot of it). A&P is not an easy subject, but we get multiple learning methods here. I'd take her class again.

If you're serious about getting into an amazing Nursing school, her class is third grade easy when it comes to the classes required once in the bachelor programs most nursing students wish to attend. Thankful for her passion and thentime she puts into this class.

What a great teacher, she defiantly makes you think. Her lecture exams are some of the hardest tests I've taken. Come to class everyday and study hard and you will do great. Ask questions when needed, she is very helpful and wants you to pass her class. I wish i could have taken her for AP 2 but she did not teach it next quarter.

Once you begin her class it will seem overwhelming with the work load and reading, but it wasn't bad at all and it gets easier after the first week of class. She is very helpful in class and online; and she is lenient when it comes to missing homework and quizzes. The labs that you do on the lab day are very easy. Quizzes and test are all online.

All 3 MB exams are online so basically use quizlit n 55 questions (timed). There are paper assignments that are worth good amounts of points so do well in them. On paper assignments you can use google to get the correct answers. Lecture attendance is not mans Tory but lab days are. Every week you have pre lab assignment online. The final is in clas

Her homework and tests were on Pearson Online for our class. I did like this format, as there were great opportunities to enhance your studying and the test were based off of the book so you knew where to focus study. Lots of extra credit was offered as well. She is very intelligent, which can come off as intimidating, but she has a fun side too!

She'll knock you points on lots of small details, and there is a LOT of reading, but no midterm, no final, and you end up with a lot of extra credit at the end without having to do any extra work. She provides links to lots of videos, too, which is helpful. There's a lot of work and reading, but if you put in the effort, you can get a good grade.

She makes you buy textbook that youll never open. All tests are online and all answers are on quizlet. Only final was in class and everybody did bad because nobody studied for a whole quarter. I didnt get anything from that class for myself.

I was frustrated with the amount of work, considering this is an entry level biology class. With how new to science I am, the amount of work made it feel impossible to soak up the actual material. Throughout the quarter, the class seemed to get easier. The final is easy as long as you study for it. Diane is very fun & her lectures are interesting!

A lot of the negative reviews are about the difficulty of her class and the style of homework. However, I like the style of her teaching. The assignments she makes you do is full of reps so you can really learn the material just by completing the assignments. This class is really getting what you put in and she also helps you a lot if you ask.

I took her online classes for the last season of college and my feeling is great. I learned a lot of great new things and really helpful lessons. There are no final exams in class, but be prepared to read and do a lot of homework. And in the end, no matter your score, you will be satisfied with it because it is your effort and everyone is fair.

Weekly Assignments: Youtube videos, long chapters, lecture notes, powerpoints, huge lab/discussion forum, and two tests. The dynamic study module is optional but very helpful. At the end, a 4-part covid module, timed final and lab practical exam. Health professions, take this class seriously. DO NOT SLACK. Teacher is awesome and makes you work.

This class was strictly online only. The homework is easy as long as you read the chapter and take notes. Quizzes are timed and due every Sunday by 11:59 pm. There is a lot of homework and note taking because she puts out PowerPoints but overall the class isnt bad. She doesnt accept late work but she does offer extra credit!
