Prof. Odeh is a wonderful teacher! If you plan on skipping classes and not putting any effort, do not sign up with her. She loves to play by the rules and demands respect. If you are not serious, she can tell within 5 mins! But if you are ready to work and have respect for others, you will do very well in her course.

Dr.Odeh is a great Instructr. I took 142 with her and got A. If you study her power point and attend class regularrly, I assure u, u will get an A too. Very supportive and always try to help her students.
This class was extremely easy, as long as you come to class and pay attention. She even gives you the questions that will be on the test before you take it. However, she is beyond unprofessional, calling out student grades in front of the class, and inviting her favorites to parties.

Best pro ever A guaranteed you need to be extremely stupid to not get a A or B Dance instead of final you need to grind with one of your classmate and get And A as final
Best pro ever A guaranteed you need to be extremely stupid to not get less then A or B Dance instead of final you need to grind with one of your classmate and get And A as final
Best teacher ever!!! We danced to get an A for Final. She tells you exactly what is on tests and quizzes by giving exact page numbers or charts to study. Easy A if you study and do everything. She gets on people who come in late so make sure to never come late. I had her on Friday at 8 am and it was a pretty damn fun class
Dr.Odeh is the best professor I've ever known.Study the powerpoints and the excellent notes,and you will get an A.She is smart, explains the material very well.She repeats the information that is coming in the quizzes and tests many times, so you leave with knowledge.She has also such a sense of humor, and makes Anatomy ,Physiology fun to learn.
I love this professor. She is so nice and caring. She is always there to help and she always goes over important information. The exams are hard if you don't study. And there is no way to dance to get an A (referring to the last comment). She is lively and up beat. She makes learning very interactive. You will leave this class with a lot of knowled
I was in her Saturday class. I have to say she is the best teacher at nova. I have learned so much in this class. She always repeats and goes over anything you find confusing. You must work and study to get an A in the class. If you pay attention and take notes you will be fine. Dr.Odeh is lovely and kind. And always come to class on time!
A wonderful professor! She knows the fact and her presentations are excellent. Teaches as if she is teaching her own children. Makes sure we understand what she is teaching. Make sure You review the powerpoints before coming to class. Attendance is mandatory and you have to be on time. You will surely get an A if you study.
This Professor to me is the best at NVCC she makes studying the A&P pretty easy and comfortable. when you hear of A&P you start getting panic attacks but she makes it very interesting and i left the class with a lot of knowledge in the subject as compared to my previous professor i took for A&P1 . Thank you so much professor and please if you want
DR.Odeh is the best professor at NOVA, she is very smart. She posts powerpoints, clear notes, gameshows on blackboard.her presentations are informative, fun.Dr.Odeh makes sure you understand the concept of each chapter.Quizzes and tests are from the notes and presentation.Thank you Dr.odeh for your effort and for making me love Anatomy&Physiology.
Dr. Odeh is hands down the most entertaining professor I've ever encountered. She loves to interact with her students and her sense of humor is a bit wacky and colorful at times but great regardless. She cracks me up and I love coming to her class just to see what we'll discuss next. Make sure you pay attention and do not come in late!
SHE IS an AWESOME PROFESSOR. the 2 years at nova i've never seen a professor care so much about her students. Shes smart, nice, joyful, enthusiastic overall a wonderful teacher to have.

THE MATERIAL IS VERY WELL PRESENTED..SEEMS LIKE ITS "FIRST GRADE GT" ;) BUT ON A MORE SERIOUS NOTE: SHE IS NOT YOUR AVERAGE PROFESSOR. I WILL NEVER FORGET HER..SHES DEF THE BEST PROFESSOR AT NOVA :)
Professor Odeh is the best! She has an ability most teachers don't have, and that is being exciting. Her lectures are without doubt the best I've ever been in. It's not an easy A though! Do your work and listen to what she tells you and you will be fine.
I love this class. Prof Odeh is very helpful. She always goes over the important info. The exams ARE hard if you don't study theres no way you can pass without reviewing your materials. She makes learning very interactive and fun. You will leave this class with a lot of knowledge. i promise.
Ms Odeh is the best teacher I have ever had at NOVA she really cares about students keeps you informed but also tells interesting stories to relate everything to the real world and keep things interesting she really gives all her students one on one attention extra assignments etc to help boost your grade if you need it and has always been very nic
Cares about what she teaches & who. Test on material covered, provides slides/notes+. Be sure to show up,respect & review. Tough w/ a heart. Def not your average prof
shes a nice teacher but she has a mood swing which i dont appreciate. She is not professional because she brings her personal life into her work. When she's happy, she could be real nice to the students, but when shes not, she can be very mean.overall, She's very helpful and guaranteed you will get some knowledge once youre done with this course
Dr.Odeh is the best professor I've had so far. She's really nice, clear and very helpful. I never hesitated to ask her a question. She was also very understanding! She gives extra credit assignments.Exams are from the PP and notes.

She's full of life, & she's always available to her students! I left the class learning more than I expected! She's an A+ in my book! Thank you for everything! I'll be taking bio142 with her also :)
yes She's very knowledgeable and easy, but she is very judgemental and moody at the same time. she doesn't keep her promises, i would not recommed her
Dr.Odeh is one of the best professors at NOVA.Simple, very knowledgeable, understanding,caring.She makes Anatomy& Physiology very easy to understand.PP , useful links,and clear notes are posted on blackboard. Definitely I will take her for BIO 142.
This professor is great! She teaches everyone in a fun way so that you can retain the info better. She is helpful if you don't understand the material. She is so loving and kind to her students that you actually want to learn. But keep in mind that you MUST attend every class or she gets angry. There is a lot of material covered so you must STUDY!!
She is great prof. Take her class.
the most unprofessional and awkward professor i ever seen in my life. she reads from the slids,adds no word to explain the material from her own. she does not know how to communicate with others. she disgrace students. she does not qualify to teach in college in the united states peroid.
do not take this woman. you will learn nothing from her.
if u take this pfro. u going to have hard time and gain nothing.

Very knowledgeable,energetic,caring,and helpful.PP and notes are easy to understand.The exams are not difficult and she gives extra credit.Make sure to take notes while she is presenting the lectures and explaining on the board.
She is the best. I had Dr. Odeh for BIO 141 and her class is very fun.I always looked for her lectures which are full of useful information and explains clinical diseases.The tests are from the power point and the notes plus she gives extra credit.
This professor is unprofessional, has favorites in class. She reads from the PowerPoint can't explain anything in her own words. She is very moody, picks on students,is very rude and mean to them. Yes her class is easy if you memorize the powerpoints. I would not recommend her.
I took BIO 141 with Dr.Odeh,and I hope I can get in her BIO 142 class.She loves teaching and explains materials on the board and projector,yet the PowerPoint and the notes on blackboard are very clear and nicely summarized.Dr.Odeh explained the clinical diseases in details . Tests are from the powerpoint,notes.Caring and energetic.
Great professor. She made me love Biology more and more everday. Her power point is so organized and to the point.She teaches you the stuff that you really need to know, she doesn't force an entire chapter down your throat. Besides,she is very helpful and encourging in order to make her students to succeed. Take her you won't regret!!!!
Dr. Odeh is the best professor I have ever had in my life! Her teaching skills are amazing and very professional. I took this class last semester with a different professor and I just wanted to cry because he was so horrible. I took it again with Dr. Odeh and she just makes learning so fun and interesting. Please take her class, shes the best!!
Not so much of a great professor. Many nonsense side conversations. Labs are close to useless, you can do it at home. Moody depending on the weather? Notes and powerpoints are always REAL EASY to her. I wouldn't recommend.
Very friendly and approachable very good at answering questions during class time. Be prepared to take good notes while in class. Her tests come straight from the notes and the powerpoints.Dr. Odeh is very helpful and makes Anatomy &Physiology easy to understand plus she gives extra credit.Hole's link ,pp,and notes are posted on blackboard.
The best at NOVA.Motivating,Simple,Understanding.Clearly she loves teaching.Take her ....
Amazing Professor.Very informative and fun class.
Please Please Don't Ever Take Her, Not Worth Of Money, Time, Or Anything. Please Do Not Read These Comment And Get Fooled. You Will Be Regretted Later.
One Of The Worst Professor I have Ever Had In My Life. Please Please Don't Ever Take Her. She Randomly Picks On Someone And Being Rude. Plz Big NOOO.
I mean this!!You are best I have ever had.No words to explain your patience and love for your class.I will miss you and thank a million.

Great Professor. She is energetic, fun. She gives a lot of notes, extra credit. She has a positive attitude.Clearly she loves teaching. Great pp ,notes ,and demonstrations. Best NOVA has to offer..
The best. Take her.
Dr. Odeh, be in class as she doesn't ask much of you except be in class and prompt. Very easy teacher, gives extra credit, understanding, and fair. Just show her you want it and earn it. Do need though to study. She is helpful when you need it too. Would recommend her as a good teacher.
She is the best professor that I've ever have!!! I took Bio 141 and 142 from Professor Odel and I got two As. Her tests is not very difficult because she reviewed everything super clearly before the tests!!!
She is the best.Cares about the subject and students.Take her :)
I chose this professor based on the stellar ratings from this website. The first two classes were fine, until something snapped, and her mood has completely changed. She spends half the time telling us what terrible students we are, and isn't helpful if someone is brave enough to ask a question. However, the tests are super easy. Just study.
Professor Odeh simplify Anatomy &Physiology.She repeats a concept many times and in different ways.simple,caring,pp and many resources are posted on BB.Will definitely take her for BIO142
Great professor!!! You need to study and attend lecture.
Test number 3 was difficult, there was no review and class avergae was like 50-60%. So, she gave 10 Extra Point on a Powerpoint. She is smart with her grading she know how many A's to give and how many B's. She likes to leave early, and read straight from PP and doesn't epand upon them. Some of these rarings are lies.
The best Professor I ever had.Attendance is very important in her class.Very helpful in the lab and explains the material in an easy way.Taking notes is very helpful.Upeat,passionate,nd she loves what she is doing.
Best Professor.Take her
One of the best professors at NOVA. Very knowledgeable, helpful, caring.
OMG, very nice and sweet..extra credit..truly cares.. love love her..Take her!!! u will not regret it. Best NOVA has!
clearly loves teaching, simple, excellent PP and notes.Explains on the board and on projector. Definitely will take Dr.Odeh for BIO 142.
Take this class!!! Dr.Odeh is one of the best professors I have ever had, cares about you and that you learn and she makes class interesting. Excellent Professor !
This teacher does not reflect her previous rating, and I would not recommend taking this professor to anyone. She reads directly off of the powerpoints, does not teach and is rude to students. You will feel like you're taking a high school level class because she talks down to you and makes fun of students.
6 week summer session. A lot of work because of the intensive session. Labs are simple and get out early all the time. She is okay. rude but okay. oh, and her tests are crazy.
Science is a hard subject for me. I took it with Dr.Odeh and she made it easy to understand and the explanation of the material was great.
Do not take BIO 142 with this professor. Reads the Powerpoints and does really make the class interesting. Teaching style is pathetic. I would have rather preferred taking class online.
Great professor and straight forward about the expectations in this class. Anatomy&Physiology is difficult for me and I was not sure is I should take it but she made very simple and easy to understand.Gives extra credit .
Anatomy and Physiology is difficult subject for me but she makes itt easy. Helpful with explaining the material and gives extra credit. Great teacher. She motivated me to study and always available for any question and help.
All i can say is she is amazing. She is extremely helpful and sweet. If i can tell anyone to take a class it would be with her. Shes helped me learn so much in such little time.
She doesn't give extra credit anymore. She is just rude! And will fail you!
The best professor ever.I came to the class and she kept guiding and motivating me.She is very knowledgeable and caring.I got an A by studying the notes and pp . God bless you!
SHE IS an outstanding prof.. the 2 years at nova i've never seen a prof. care so much about her students. Shes intelligent, friendly, joyful, enthusiastic overall a wonderful teacher to have. I attended to all courses bc its fun learning about the Ana. she knows how to make the subj fascinating. Her exam are straight from powerpoint.:)pick HER
Great Professor. Definitely will take her for BIO 142.
Three words: Love this class! Other professors need to learn how to be understanding and caring like her!!! She shows her love for bio and no doubt shows her love for teaching her students! Her exercises and labs really help and are sooo interesting! Would definitely take her for bio 142!
Professor Odeh has inspired me so much. She welcomed us to the class the first day and assured us that with practice and notes we would do well. The class is actually super easy.I could honestly say its one of my best and favorite. So far I have an A. Tests are based on notes. Very nice energetic professor. Definitely taking her 142 class
interesting, easy, powerpoints and notes help much with tests
she is very easy and give extra point all the time. But the test is crazy.
1. Her accent is very strong. 2. all materials to study are scattered, so it's really confusing and difficult to figure out what to study (incredible number of pages to see..) 3. Although it's not easy, keep saying 'it's easy.' makes me feel like I'm a fool! 4.her test asks you something not important, and makes your hard study nothing.
Professor Odeh is awesome! Her test are a piece of cake, just take notes in lecture and highlight things she repeats. Honestly, she does not go into great detail, but its basic anatomy. Not much memorization in this class =)
loved this class, it was easy and interesting. no complaints
best professor ever! learned plenty this semester!
she is the best simple motivating and knowledgable
Show her some respect and you will be fine in her class. study what she tells you and show up to class = A
Horrible professor! I had a 3.89 prior to taking this course (required for Nursing) and she was very unoraganized, confusing, rude, not helpful professor! Her test are extre. hard and if you ask her a question, she makes you look stupid from the way she responds. Please please avoid taking her for the sake of your GPA. The ratings below are false.
EASY! Take notes, listen to her lectures and that is 75%of your grade right there because what she teaches you is what is on exams. always reviews before exams
I am taking her class right now, and I honestly would not recommend it to anybody. She is rude and talks to you like your an idiot and are stupid. She goes through notes so fast and if you ask a question she gives you sarcastic response. The stuff she tells you to study is rarely on the exam. Point blank she is a terrible teacher!!!
I'm taking her class too, she is great! ppl who complain. need to see the other bio profs how are they. she is amaaaaaaaaazing and explains v well and respect her students and she know what she's doing very organized! I love her and I will take my other bio with her.
Best teacher ever!!!!! I love her. By far she is my favorite teacer at nova. Sudy what she tells ad you will have a guarenteed A
It is very hard to understand BIO because she is not really explaining the course very well instead she is just giving the power point notes and expects you to know everything. And its true she always say "its easy" ,but its really not easy because she just read the power point, and the test is hard.
Doctor Odeh makes the class very interesting and gives us many resources to use. I love Anatomy and Physiology now and recommend everyone to take this class! She posts excellent, helpful notes and animations. Dr.Odeh can be very nice if you respect her and her class. take this class
Professor Odeh is a very nice person and great at heart. This is anatomy so OF COURSE it's going to be hard and you have to put in a lot of work. She is easy on lab tests and helps out A LOT, but for lecture exams you have to study and before the exams she tells you exactly what is going to be on the test. Just come to class and pay attention. :)
Good professor. I took the 8 week BIO 142. Accent is difficult to understand but after the first week I got used to it. Very nice to you esp if you participate & put in the effort. Easy on lab practicals which are verbally naming parts of the lab models & her tests are challenging but if you study and show up you'll do fine. Gives extra credit.
Dr. Odeh will seem intimidading at the beginning, but she's a true softy. From everyone I have talked to she is wayyyyyy easier then all the other Anatomy professors. Take her If you want an easy A! She offers ALOT of extra credit
Be prepared to study outside of class! She reads off of Powerpoint slides for lectures (they are on blackboard to print off w notes). All of the lab quizzes are oral so study hard for those. She doesn't do well with questions, so ask a classmate. If you can study independently and take good notes then she is an easy A.
I am taking professor Fatin Odeh right now and she is amazing. She makes your life easy by telling you want you need to study. Attendance is very important in that class;if you pay attention and study her power points you will do fine.
She asks you to buy the textbooks, but you will not use it at all. Learn the PPT and the study guide, and she wants you to print it out for the class which takes you a bunch of money. She has a very strong accent and just read the PPT at class. Every two weeks you have a test that is not easy. If you are good at self-study, you can take it.
Professor Odeh is very Nice .
She is one of the best professors I had. Anatomy &Physiology was hard for me but she made easy and her lecture interesting and not boring.
She is the funniest professor I have ever had. She calls out students when they come in late. her lab is easy but there are too many lecture exams which for 16 weeks, we had two every 2 weeks. It was weird. But She's easy compared to some people
I was shocked on how easy this professor is. Everyone receives a 100% as a lab grade if you show up to class, and she makes her lecture tests pretty easy. She offers a massive amount of extra credit. I never studied and never got higher then a B on a lecture test, but still finished with a 99% for a final grade. RIDICULOUSLY EASY PROFESSOR.
She is the best. I had difficulty understanding Anatomy Physiology but Dr Odeh made it easy to understand .She explains everything in details and summarizes the important information. Very nice and professional. I would take her for BIO 142
Awesome Professor Learned a lot of Anatomy physiology .She gives study guide prior to the test and Lab was fun Tests from the material she covers. Amazing notes on blackboard.
Absolutely loved her! I took her for a 6 week summer sessions so there is a lot of material to cover in a short time. She is very clear about what you need to know and made class very enjoyable. She gave random extra credit for attendance so make sure you show up, to get your points and to know what will be tested!
Dr. Oden was very nice. She has a warm smile and does what she can to ensure students learn. I had her for lab and I appreciate that she allowed us to review what we needed during class time. She made sure to give one on one time with students if we had questions or concerns about the a particular area on the body.
When i first started the class, I wanted to drop. But after taking other science professors I've realized she's the best. Hard tests, lots of studying for oral lab exams but all you do in class is take notes- and just study in lab. In the end, you'll definitely pass, unless you don't show up.
Great Professor
Easiest class I've ever taken, if you take her class and don't get an A or B then college might not be for you. She makes it almost impossible not to get a good grade. Clear grading criteria if you pay attention and show up. Its still an anatomy class so you HAVE to study but if you put in effort you'll get a good grade.
So inspirational and so caring! I don't like science in general but Dr. Odeh made class very interesting, looked forward to her lectures. Best professor at NVCC!!
Professor Odeh provides a concise lecture that typically doesn't take up the entire class period. She is straight to the point which is amazing! She's rough around the edges but nice once you get to know her. Her tests are easy. She typically requires attendance and does provide extra credit. I 100% recommend taking her class.
Nice professor. She was rude but she is easy. She will let you know what will be on the test. She gives you a ton of extra credit which help to push your grade. I would take her again. Love her.
She's awful, period. Never prepared for class, wasted time in lab while she graded papers or changed her mind 3 times on what she wanted to do, inconsistent in assignments, very very frustrating if you like clear guidelines and grading requirements. Didn't really teach anything tho she knows the material. Stay away if you want to learn-
Dr. Odeh's lectures are amazing and she made Anatomy&Physiology easy to learn. I learned a lot in her class and gives a lot of extra credit.
She is so nice and easy She is hot and best teacher at NOVA Cares a lot about the students and the subject and gives a lot of extra credit
I absolutely LOVED this professor. I wish I could have her for every BIO class! She is somewhat of a drill sergeant but I liked it. She tells you what to study and doesn't overload you with info. Make sure you're on time and don't use your cell phone.
She's chill, and I think funny if you get her humor. I tend to laugh at everything. Very easy and am embarrassed I didn't get an A. If you aren't a science major, then this is a good choice. I took human anatomy as an elective and it was the perfect choice. I didn't study that much so I didn't learn a bunch.
I HIGHLY recommend her! I took the 5-week summer class, it was a breeze! 4 test (about 3 chapters on each exam), 25 pts in extra credit, and oral lab exams. She does an outstanding job on letting you know which areas to focus on for the exams. She also provides chapter notes on BB, study the notes provided and the test will be a piece of cake!
She is awesome!! I would definitely take her again!!
She's really nice but she wasn't very inconsistent with teaching or her exams. Gave a lot of extra credit. Overall, not terrible, but I like her better as a person than as a professor. She's caring and really sweet, though.
She is funny and gives lots of extra credit. Would take her again!
Dr. Odeh is awesome! Lots of extra credit. Take her you wont regret. Attend classes and dont be late!
She very nice to the class only if the class is very respectful to her lectures. She sometimes have the class do online take-home exams instead of in-class versions for some of the chapters but either way her test aren't challenging. Study from the study-guide and/or power-points and you will be fine.
She gave amazing follow ups and lectures with examples. she often stayed after to make sure everyone in the class understood the lesson. She was very caring for the class and most knowledgeable . I would take any class taught by this professor. She made you feel comfortable while teaching esp coming back to school after children.
Excellent professor! I would take her again and again. She inspired me and many of my classmates. We all looked forward to her lectures. Take notes and attend class. She is the best professor at NVCC.
Hands down best professor at NVCC. I would definitely take her courses again. Very inspirational and you'll learn alottt
One of the most caring and best professors at Nova. She truly care for you and treats you as if you were her child. Come prepared to class and get ready to learn. Laziness will not work in here at all. She will make you laugh with her jokes and will also give you the best advice ever. Once again, I truly loved this class and I know you will too
I'm sorry but if you took this class and got below an A that's your fault. she has amazing lectures and goes right to the point without saying any unnecessary information. make sure you come to the labs on time and don't be lazy or else she will call u out. she wants everyone to leave this course with knowledge so apply yourself and you'll be fine
Only two words: TAKE HER!!!!! You won't regret.
Such an amazing professor, lectures are pretty basic, she might go a little fast but she posts everything on blackboard, take her she's great.
one of the best processor. Don't hesitate to take her class. 5 lectures exams and 5 labs but all are very easy. EASY A.
Hands down the best Bio professor at NOVA. Gives extra credit-up to 20 points each. However, she will call you out if you are late/absent. As long as you are in class and pay attention, there is no way you will get anything lower than an A. I wish she taught 142.
Literally show up to all classes and there is no way you will get below a B, I promise you just show up to class and you will pass the class. BEST PROF EVER:)
Print out the notes and the power point! I recommend the power point because she teaches most from the power point. Make sure you come in time, she will call you out! and study the material, or she will give out pop quizzes. DO NOT MISS ANY DAYS!
Literally just show up, listen, take notes and youll pass. Professor Odeh is one of the nicest and easiest Bio teachers at nova. She lectures from powerpoints so its important to print out the notes. She offers 20+ points extra credit. She tells you exactly whats on the test, no true or false trick questions, all straightforward. TAKE HER!!!
The unit outlines do not really match the material on the PowerPoint. The material is not clarified however I did learn some interesting things! The extra credit was super helpful. The only grades in the class are test and labs. Deducts points if you miss lecture or lab, attendance is super important.
She's the best teacher anyone can have for BIO 141. She only asks you to know what is important. Just pay attention to her lectures and you will get easy A.
super easy professor! She only makes you know what is important, so pay attention to her lectures and powerpoints!
She has no clue how to teach an online class. She is very rude; has no respect for her students or their opinions. She shuts you down when you are trying to say something and she doesn't want to even give you an opportunity to speak your mind. If you don't wish to be disrespected and shut down while speaking, then don't take her.
I am not one to take things personally and usually what people say doesn't bother me but she is the most unnecessarily mean professor I have ever had. I LOVE anatomy but I hate logging into class because I don't want to hear her talking about how bad of students we are anymore. Seriously she spends 30 mins to an hour each class being mean to us.
Dr. Odeh is harsh, but she means well. Believe it or not, she's not all that bad (bearable). When it comes to classwork, she mainly highlights the Anatomy side of things rather than Physiology, but overall, she was extremely easy to pass and tells you exactly what you need to know for the exam. My advice is, take her once, get that A, and move on!
Best BIO professor at NVCC. She is sweet and caring. Takes her time to explain the material in depth. Show up to class, pay attention and you will pass. Would definitely take her again if she teaches 142.
One of my best professors. She is very knowledgeable and lectures well
DO NOT LET HIGH RATINGS FOOL YOU! I WOULDNT HAVE!EVER!TAKEN HER CLASS IF THESE RATINGS REFLECTED THE TRUTH! Make sure to study before/after class bc she spends 40% of class flipping thu slides & 60% bashing students 4 being stupid. I got an A bc she liked me. Only ++ quality: she tells EXACTLY whats on tests, i never worried about cramming EVRYTHNG
Show up to Zoom class and participate and you should do pretty well. She has clear grading criteria. I learned a lot from her class. Would take her again if she teaches BIO 142.
I had to drop her class because she was awful ... AWFUL! not only does she tells the class they are cheaters... she belittles you, she is rude. she doesn't really teach she skips through PowerPoint slides... unorganized... i just couldn't stay in that class. please don't take that class and waste your time... if you do get ready to drop money
I am not much of a science person but had to take a science for my major and let me tell you I learned a lot from Professor Odehs class. She makes biology very interesting and she has a great sense of humor. Definitely take her
shs good
I took her BIO 141 class via zoom and honestly it was the hardest class I've had during fall 2020. You can't get a good grade if you only study with her lecture because she only tells you this is on the quiz, and this is not. She just reads the slide and no teaching. If you can do self-study well, I won't stop you from taking her class.
Prof Odeh is the best professor to teach BIO 141 im not the best in science and she makes it very easy, as long you go to her lectures you will be completely fine, she is very kind and wants the best for her students she always is there to help. take her!!!!
I swear this teacher is so disrespectful and doesn't know how to teach at all. She gets mad when you ask questions and excepts you to know everything. She "teaches" by reading a bunch of slides which anyone can do on their spare time. Taking this class is already hard, but with this teacher it feels like I am taking 3 college classes.
Hands down best professor at Nova. Taking her class now. Shes precise straight to the point and has clear expectations. Dont take this class if youre going to whine because you want to have a grade handed to you without studying. Good grades dont come easy. Attend all of her lectures and listen and do your work and you should be alright.
You will be doing a lot of rereading PowerPoint slides. The lectures were her reading the slides and then breakout rooms to reread the slides. Tests were weekly and only 1 or 2 other assignments. It takes time to get the professor, she can come across as harsh but she does want the best for students. It you don't know facts immediately be careful.
she "cares" for her students but she is rude, belittles you, and doesn't care what you have to say. She will talk over you. I'm not a suck up but I work hard in classes and try to respect my teachers. Unfortunately she just has a bad personality. The quizzes are straightforward though and she tells you what to study.
Throws you in breakout room the ENTIRE class period. Calls her students names and straight up yells for HOURS. Grades you ONLY on TIMED QUIZZES that most of us ran out of time HALF way. Not understanding when it comes to grades. NO extra credit. Jumps in Breakout room and quizzes you for grade and attendance, heard her voice ONLY when yelling.
Look no further! She's definitely the best professor I've had yet. Looks like she gets bad talked by the kids that don't show up or are called out for not participating. Hands down best class I've taken. Would take her again for BIO 142
Professor Odeh rocks! Always a fun engaging class!
She just yells. Taking this class means 6 hours a week listening to her just yell. No homework, test every other class. Test is timed: 30 minutes for 30 questions. She also throws you into breakout rooms with no instruction past 'review' and then gets upset and says she will fail you if you aren't doing what she wanted.
Professor Odeh has been my favorite professor yet at nova. she's really nice and lectures well. I was never good at science but she made everything look so easy and clear, she actually made me interested in science.
Take her class. She’s straight to the point and pretty clear. It’s science you either love it or don’t but she makes it somehow easier and more interesting. I will take her again if she has other courses.
Professor Odeh may come off as harsh and scary but she's actually a really nice teacher. The meetings we had on zoom were comprised of her lecturing and then putting us into breakout rooms where we could study with one another. Lectures were kind of boring since it was just reading off the powerpoint but I lab in-person was much more helpful.
She made everything easy to understand. Super glad I chose her for bio 141
Do yourself a favor and TAKE HER!
I wish more professors were like Professor Odeh. I'm going to miss her class. Glad I took her class because it gave me confirmation for me that my passion is in nursing and that's what I'll be majoring in for certain. She makes everything easier to memorize and understand and she makes it look so simple :)
caring and understanding professor, put in the work and you'll be fine. she has a nice teaching style and it made the class seamless and easy.
