She is a great teacher and is always reachable for questions. All tests are based on her notes, so all you need to do is memorize them. She emails you study material for the tests and tells you exactly what you need to know...with no surprises...I worked hard, got an A, and learned a lot. Lab quizzes every week and she gives extra credit.

Excellent professor. She is very clear about what you need to study. Know her powerpoints and memorize the required pathogens and you'll breeze through. Great sense of humor. She sets you up to succeed if you want to!

She's is AWESOME in so many ways! The class is not easy but she makes it fun and interesting. She different ways of teaching, like visual, hands in training and writing (Pre-labs). If you really work for it you will get a good grade, I did not put a lot effort and I had a high B. She always provides Study guides and if there is time review it.

I got an A in this class, but you definitely need to study! Her first 2 exams are very difficult and then it gets a little better! Attend all classes for extra credit at the end of the semester and READ all notes! She is a very understanding and caring professor! Not the best at teaching, study the notes on your own or in a group.

You would be INSANE to take any other Micro teacher at Valencia. She is the best because of how detailed her notes are. You can studt her notes and never look at the book and pass the tests. You have to work to get an A, but its not back breaking.

She is definitely a good professor. Micro is hard itself so there is no way you can get an easy A or B. Prepare to read and actually study. Lots of homework but as long as you spend time you will get full credits out of it. Unit test is not easy but it is possible to get at least a B if you spend time and know the stuff.

The hardest part for this class are the unit tests. Even you have read the textbook and powerpoint there is not guarantee that you can get an A. But lab midterm and lab final are easy though. I only missed two or three questions on both of them. The key is that make sure you study for every lab quiz every week and understand the labs purposes.

She does give extra credit but even with that many students had C's and D's. She is also very negative about certain things she talks about. I do NOT recommend her class at all!!
