This is my 3rd time taking Sainvil and each time his class gets better! What distinguishes him from all the other BORING science teaches is his ability to keep students interested. Its a true art form HE IS BY FAR the BEST teacher @ Broward. You will learn, laugh and love this class! If you pay attention, STUDY, and attend class you will get an A!
By far one of the best professors teaching at Broward College, he explains everything in a way you understand it...uses examples, tells stories, tells jokes etc. He does an excellent job of keeping you interested--I wish I would have found him sooner!! And I would absolutely take him again.
Is the class easy? No...it is possible to get a good grade? yes grading scale? its fair. professor? he is an excellent one. what grade did i get? an "A". How much did i study? A LOT...my advise?just show up,study and u will be just fine. do well on the mini quizzes and do the online assignment it helps.go over the clicker question they on the final
the best professor ever!!!!
the best professor I have ever had
Professor Sainville has the ability to keep his students interested in whatever he's teaching by co-relating life with anatomy. I feel that he is the absolute best teacher that BC has to offer and you leave his class learning more than you expected. He is awesome and very knowledgeable and anyone that is considering taking his class SHOULD!!!
If you think you will walk into this man's class and leave with an easy "A", you're crazy. You have to study your butt off and show him you deserve it. He's the best and you would be a fool not to take him. He makes learning the anatomy extremely fun and most importantly you leave his class with alot of great information that you will have for life
DEFINITELY the best choice for anatomy classes! You will actually LEARN something in his class. He's very humorous yet demands respect from you. Don't be late to class! Don't be caught texting! You'd better plan on paying attention in class and you will learn. He's got a real heavy accent that will grow on you after awhile. TAKE HIM
he is very good.he is very intelligent and fair.if you are lazy and dont want to work for a chance at a possible A, just stay home and do nothing. read chapters,pay attention in class, do extra credit and review.ill be a better nurse in the future because of him.
His a very nice, knows his subject, and i guarantee you will learn a whole lot in this class. This prof. has got to be the easiest prof in the history of Broward College. I barely studied for any of the test and still got a B. Definitely take him...
I will continue to sing the praises of this professor until I am out of Broward College...THATS HOW AMAZING HE IS...HANDS DOWN THE BEST PROFESSOR IVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE! The class is ANATOMY, hello its going to be difficult but wouldnt you want a professor who makes learning something difficult FUN and INTERESTING! HE IS THE BEST! Would Recommend!
This professor is the BEST PROFESSOR AT BROWARD COLLEGE! He is the reason why I decided to switch into the science field! He loves what he does, he loves his student and he is soooooooo funny! I mean Anatomy is hard! And you still have to study but taking a hard class with a funny professor actually made me enjoy going to class! TAKE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!
He is an overall awesome teacher. His way of teaching keeps its intersting and is a very funny guy. Do the extra credit it helps so much. The test are not straight forward and are pretty hard I would recommend studying like 2 weeks in advance for them. But overall love this teacher and anatamy is hard class what do u expect=)
GREAT Professor! Keeps the class fun and interesting. One of the best classes I have taken. I wish I could take him again next semester. Read the chapters, study the PPT and do the extra credit and online practice. You will get an easy A this way :) Good Luck!
An amazing teacher, he will help you pass the class even when you are failing! He is a must have if you dont mind an accent!
Proffesor Sainvil is a good teacher but he has no review for his test which has 80 questions;(. overall he gives you extra credit and also if you go to his office he will help you study. If you have somewhat a understanding of anatomy go on ahead and take him but if you don't than good look in his class.
GOOD TEACHER... INTERACTS W/ CLASS.. HE GOES BY POWERPOINT SO U DNT NEED THE BOOK BUT THE BOOK ADDS CLARITY.. GIVES XTRA POINTS TOWARD EACH EXAM AND LETS U DO A MAKEUP EXAM.. USES CLICKER WHICH IS NEW.. DOES QUIZES AFTER EACH CHAPTER THAT HELP W/ POINTS .. DEF HAVE TO STUDY HARD CLASS THOUGH
AWESOME TEACHER,HAD HIM FOR LECTURE AND LAB. HE IS ONE OF THE BEST TEACHER'S AT BC. CAN'T COME OUT OF HIS CLASS AND NOT KNOW ALOT ABOUT ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY.IF YOU WANT A GOOD PROFESSOR TAKE HIM.
Prof Sainvil is a commendable teacher.This subject is a challenege but if your willing to learn,hell help.He knows his subject very well...dont try to correct him lol you have to be consistent with your studying in order to pass this class...He offers extra credit..but no review packets...you have to pay much attention. I miraculousy recieved a B.
Prof. Sainvil is a great teacher. He is very funny guy and uses interesting anologies to make students uderstand things easily. His tests come with 80 multiple choice questions and gives extra credits. Anatomy is not an easy subject, but he made it interesting, and I got an A.Pay extra attention to what he writes on the board.
I LOVE this professor. He makes A&P very easy to understand. He gives several opportunites to pass the calss. A make up exam and extra credit points on each exam. If you do not pass this class or do well in his class it's becasue you are absoutley lazy & ridicilous. Pay attention to things he says are very important becasue it will be on the exam.
Great professor! I absolutely love him.. You do need to study, but he tells you exactly what you need to know. Try to take his lecture and lab, both are interesting. Makes class fun. Test are not easy, but not hard. TAKE HIM!!
Condescending Haitian instructor who makes himself feel better by insulting students on the premise that he's teaching, but he isn't. If you dare joke right back he'll get nasty and put you down. Very insecure. Extremely heavy accent, very difficult to understand. HATES QUESTIONS!! What decent instructor hates questions! He needs to be reprimanded.
Professor Sainvil is a great professor, he is very helpful to the students, gives a lot of practice assignments that are not mandatory but will definitely prepare you. Extra credit on tests. He has a great sense of humor and is always making class fun. The only thing is he has a heavy accent and calls on students randomly to see if your on point.
Who ever is picking classes I recommend you to def take this professor. Hes one of the Best, the thing some people dont understand about Prof Sainvil is that he see's life easy and humorous. He gives great examples to make lecture easy to understand. Has heavy accent though,and dont think this is an easy A, def have to study hard for each exam.
Professor Sainvil is a good professor, but I don't think he's the best. Students like to blame his heavy accent as the main reason for failin his class but its really because they don't study. This class requires a lot of hard work and studying. Don't take him if you aren't in the medical field or if you're looking for an easy A. His test are hard.
While I came to love his class, I will say that his teaching style is not for everyone. His tests are very hard, but he really pushes you to learn. His accent is very heavy, but after a couple weeks you don't even notice. He is extra generous with extra credit and wants you to do well in is class!
Very nice man. Very knowledgable. Very humble. Does not keep students at a distance. Does have a heavy accent. Nonetheless, I earned an A in his class. I studied book heavily and did online activities. Test are hard, but so is the material, but not unfair. VERY generous with extra credit. No reason not to take him if you're prepared to work
Took him for both 1085 and 1086. He gives a lot of opportunities to get an A. You have to be willing to study and read the text. But the online resources really help. I really learned a lot in the class. Got A's both semesters. One of the best Prof at BC.
Took him for 1086 based on reviews. Funny guy, but is disorganized and reads straight from slides. Skips entire chapters but tests you on it. Learned way more from my textbook. Hard subject already, he makes it even harder by not teaching.
He is the funniest teacher i have ever met! Anatomy lecture with him is a blast. I was so lucky to get into his anatomy class for summer session, as it was full to the max! His classes are always full so sign up early! But for sure take him!!!
Took his Lab. Great Prof. He is funny, Has a Thick accent but you can still understand. His class was easy and fun. Take this class with him and you will do fine. If you really try you can get an A. I barely did anything and I got a B. Just make sure you study for the Final.
Awesome Professor! Most definitely the best that I have had at BC. Don't get caught up in the accent...you get used to it fast. Make sure that you do the online homework, study the PowerPoints and write down everything he says about the exams! If you take the time and study for this class, then there is no reason why you couldn't pass.
If you are going into nursing take this professor, studied the PPS that he told us passed the class with an A, got perfect score in A&P part of the HESI. Very easy class.
Mr Saint Vil is an excellent teacher. If your objective is learning anatomy, you have the reference. Mr Saint Vil is awesome
had this guy for both a&p 1 lecture and lab. great teacher helps u get the material using jokes and life experiences. does have a thick accent but with time u should get used to it. make sure to do the online e.c quizes and study alot outside of class.
Great Pro. great class. He does way more than other professor. makes class fun and easier not harder like other pro. Lots of extra credit and study materials. A or B if you just read or go over power point notes. A&P 1-2 is hard but he makes it easier. breaks it down to life experiences so you can remember them forever not just later.
Mr Sainvil is one of the best prof i ever had. he is very knowledgable,explicit,funny and very helpful.the way he explain by using real life experience help you not only understand but remember what you need to know. make sure you study and ask question if you have any. awesome teacher if you going into the medical field take him,you won't regret
Take this professor he is the best. Teaching relates to real life situations. Funny and really wants his students to know the material. I love this guy and his teaching style.I took him for both lecture and lab.
Took him for A&P I and II. This professor is wonderful, explains everything and provides power points so you don't need to buy the book. Very funny man and very knowledgeable. If you want to learn and have fun at the same time then he is your teacher.
Professors knowledge is impeccable, his accent is hard to understand. He relates the material to everyday life and is humorous. However, make no mistake you need to study. Read, read, read again.!!! 7x's is what he says!
He is the best teacher ever he made the material easy. He has a good sense of humor. there is no way to not get a A or a B in this class if you study and to the extra credit. best teacher ever
Awesome teacher!!! Anyone that complains about this professor is just lazy and didn't try!! Yes you need to study but hello people that's why your in college. He does go over everything that he test you on and he tells you what you need to know and not!!!
Awesome Professor! This class was entertaining and funny! His style of teaching is like no other! He knows what he's talking about. No textbook needed, just study his powerpoints, (esp the "very important" ones), do well on his quizzes (<- sometimes gives you the answers), and DO THE EXTRA CREDIT! You wont regret it!
he is great, you just have to participate, read your book. just come prepare and you will learn , have an A. don not expect things to be easy because the materials are heavy. so read read, watch youtube if you are lost.
Best professor at BC. Really connects to students and wants to see you succeed if you dont "your being lazy".Reall knows his stuff. Makes class fun and realtes subject to real life and you realize that you always knew the answer. Awesome professor do hesitate TAKE HIS CLASS
I love this professor! He has a strong accent yes but he is HILARIOUS!!! he will keep you laughing he rlates anatomy to everyday life, and he wants nothing but the best for all is studnets especially his studnets going into the medical field You DONT need a txt book and you get TONS if extra credit and a make up and i barely studied and passed
Great teacher, make the class alive....Tests are not so hard if you study...Take him.
Excellent professor. Took him for BSC2085 & BSC2085L & now taking him for ANAT 2 & LAB. Clear and helpful. Best science teacher ever!
Professor sainvil is one of the best at BC ,he makes you want to attend class ,his class is never boring ,ge gives a lot of extra credit , he really teaches you about human anatomy .great prof .great sense of humor .
Prof. Sainvil is one of the best teachers at BC! He is very clear with his work. He has an accent but thats NO excuse for u not to understand the material. He breaks it down in a way that makes it clear to understand. Gives a lot of extra credit. His test are easy IF U STUDY! He wants everybody to succeed. He is the BEST & I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!!!
Best Professor I've taken in BC. He breaks everything down barney style. He really takes his time to teach you anatomy. He gives out a lot of information and makes it very easy to understand everything. I recommend this professor for everyone who has to take anatomy.
BEST PROFESSOR EVER! So I took him this past summer for anatomy 1 and he was awesome! very entertaining. BE MINDFUL THOUGH YOU DO NEED TO STUDY! lots of extra credit. I ended up getting a B. If you fail it's your fault. TAKE HIM!
Mr frantz Sainvil is one of the best professor at BC , however it is not an easy A ,if you study and attend class regularly you will get an A .
Processor is awesome. Teaches very well. It takes some time to understand his acccent. But he knows his stuff
Took this class blended and it was the worst mistake I have made in my college career. The guy is funny but he does not explain what's gonna be on the quizzes or the tests. He just tells you to read the book, listen to the lectures on PowerPoint, and do a game show PowerPoint. Very disappointed with this class and the professor.
Excellent professor! Study, study study and you will get an A. Lots of extra credit, reviews before quizes. Attend class on time and don't miss any. I also took his lab and same thing. Study and you will get an A. Use the LRC, test review and notes
he is awesome! take him. he makes class fun and enjoyable. he is there to help you and you will get nothing less than an A or B!
He is honestly the best professor!!! you won't regret taking his lab
THIS CLASS IS SOOOOOO EASY! I DID NOT STUDY AT ALL and I got a B on every single TEST. So imagine if I studied? His lectures are review, he tells you what to study. This is the most chill professor at BC. I love him and he's hilarious. TAKE HIM!
Professor Sainvil is the Best!! He makes learning interesting. Of course you must study and do the homework, but he offers extra credit too. I got an A in this course. Study and do the homework he also gives power points and doesn't mind answering questions. He is great because he wants to see his students pass!
Class is blended. Lectures are online and recorded which helps a lot and class is a review. There are 4 tests, lots of extra credit and 2 quizzes every class. You have to study but he tells you what's important. He's very funny and has a strong accent. Take his class, study and you should get an A.
One of the best Professors at BC. He explains everything so clearly. He always does a quick review of the actual quiz just before he gives it to you and they are multiple choice.If you put in the effort you will get a good grade. He is always available if you need any help. Sign up for his class, you will not regret it.
Ifyou wantto really understand and learn anatomy this is the Professor for you.He gives you everything you need to succeed.Just keep up with your online work and it will pay off.You have to do your part in order to receive a good grade.He's very accessible, answers email very quickly & you could make an appt to see him in his office..he's the best!
This is one of the best professors I have ever taken online. He is very helpful and answers emails quickly. He gives extra credit, and you have two chances to take his quizzes. If you put in the effort you will pass. I thought I was going to get a bad grade since the class is difficult to take online but with Professor Sainvil I passed with a B.
The absolute best professor you could ever want, he knows his material u will definitely learn Anatomy if you are there to learn he is extremely helpful with anything you may need he has office hrs which he spend helping students,this is not a easy class so if that is what u are looking for don't waist your time you got to study and do the work.
Professor Sainvil is an awesome professor. He is very thorough with the material discussed. Be sure to read the lab sections and you will do fine. He makes sure his students learn and is always there to answer questions you may have.
Probably the best professor I have had! Dr. Sainvil is funny, is really caring and wants each student to succeed. He knows his students by name, and is personable. There are plenty of opportunities to get an A or B. If you don't get a good grade, it's your lack of trying! You might even walk out of the class with a "life lesson" or two :-)
Prof. is great. Very funny, always making jokes and keeps you on your toes. Relates the material to every day events and focuses on what is important. YOU DO HAVE TO STUDY. I thought I could get away without studying and I got a C on the first test. Studied after that and got an A. He really helps you out, listen.
Prof Sainvil is awesome! He keeps the class interesting and makes great analogies. He really knows his material and wants us to understand it well. Provides the class with plenty of material to study from & gives extra credit! Your grade is based on the effort you put in.
Rate the professor-not the subject! I have never had a professor who cared about the success of his students as much as this man does. His recorded lectures, connect questions and game shows are provided as supplements which he puts together outside of his 9 to 5. If you're lucky enough to actually get into one of his classes - appreciate it.
AMAZING! He really wants to help you learn. He connects the information to hilarious scenarios to help you understand concepts. He told us that we'd have to study 4 hours/day but I never studied and had the highest grade in the class throughout the semester. Just pay attention in class and it isn't too much work. He offers extra credit.
Pro. Sainvil really is the best. He interacts with the entire class, and keeps it fun with his humor and wit. Lots of extra credit. I never read the book. I only read the powerpoints before the tests. you have to buy a clicker.
Love love love professor Sainvil!! He is the absolute best teacher ever, I got an A in his class. He makes everything to easy to understand and he offers lots of extra credit to help you bring your grade up. If you fail it's because you did absolutely nothing, if you need help he will help you. Best class ever I'm taking 2086 with him next semester
This is a great professor. He covers everything but makes learning fun. He is very funny and allows a lot of interaction in the classroom. I think he is one of the best professors ever. He fuses learning with jokes. This was an amazing class. There was a lot of material to cover but he showed confidence in his students. He is great!
Best professor I have ever had in my collegiate experience. He interacts with all students. Will not move on until everyone understands and gives so many examples allowing us to apply the text to everyday life situations. Very funny and entertaining. Would take this professor for every class if possible... and his lab is great!
This man is the best professor!! He really cares about his students. He gives EC. I could've passed with an A but I was lazy and didn't do the EC. Taking him again for BSC2086.
3 words best teacher ever! just take him no question.
He's absolutely the best anatomy professor you could get. His lectures are available for you to review at home but it's so worth coming to class to have a great laugh and understand the concepts at the same time. Do not slack off, study hard because the tests are not the easiest. Classes are review, so view lectures at home several times!
Amazing instructor. I would definitely take this class again!
HE is THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!! If you have the opportunity to take his class, DO IT ! He is very knowledgeable and knows how to explain things very well. He has an analogy for everything. Study hard + go to class easy A
He gives 4 exam. You can make up one if you fail or miss one. His 10 question quiz he gives after every chapter doesn't help you for his exam. Take his class If you want to laugh and fail. I like the class but not with this professor. TEXTBOOK DOES NOT HELP
If you know Anatomy this teacher is good for you to relate to real life situations. If you don't know Anatomy this class is hell and you will fail. He ignores half his students. He also picks on students for everything. But he loves you anyway. Also, he expects you to have free time.
He is very caring of his students because he provides so many resources to us to help us pass his class that most studnts dont really take advantage of. Allows us to makeup lowest test and replaces. He also gives extra credit which really helps! If you are lazy u wont pass. Keep in mind this is A&P you have to make lots of time to study!!!
Great teacher! It's A&P so you have to do your fair share of reading but this teacher makes it all clear! He has an accent but you get used to it and understand him well:) He gives a lot of real life scenarios. All I have to say is if you wanna take him, choose him quick cause his class fills up fast. PS you dont need the newest txtbook
Professor Sainvil is such an inspirational Professor. He truly cares about the fate of his students, and push his students to take advantage of our study resources. He provides his students with lectures to listen to from home, gives extra credit, and allows one makeup exam to replace your worst test grade. His lectures are interesting, Take him!!!
GREAT PROFESSOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So glad I decided to take this course with this professor. Anatomy is not easy at all, but this professor helped us out so much. He gives four exams and a makeup to replace lowest score and he also gives extra credit. You have to study though an A won't just come easy. Taking him for part 2 in the summer.
4 test 3 chapters each + 1 make updrop lowest grade test. Quiz after each chapter. Connect extra credit. Recorded lectures in Connect to use at home. Uses PP! Heavy accent but you get used to it. Funny. Rewards hard study and effort. Grading is straight forward and no surprises. Wish he would be teaching micro, chemistry and bio. Take him!!!
Took him for two semester and got a B+ in both. If you don't watch the videos or do connect you fail. Connect is 8+ pts on test, 3 test plus a "make up" aka important chapters (replaces lowest grade) and quizzes per ch. Accent heavy but it becomes second nature. Like he says he gives you everything what you do with it is up to you.
He is awesome! Tests are passable! Study, read, listen to connect, and use power points. you must put in your time, all the resources are there. He has an extremely strong accent, its super hard to understand. He's super funny though. Gives 4 tests plus makeup to boost grade. Do connect, worth 8 points to towards test.
I love this professor. This was a tough semester for me but he was so encouraging. He cares for his students and he wants to make sure that everyone understands the information before he moves on. 4 test, 1 make up to replace lowest grade. Connect +8 extra credit points, clicker questions 10% of grade. Take if you want to learn. I GOT A B
Best teacher ever!!! I love this professor. He cares for his students and he wants to make sure that everyone understands the course. This was a tough semester for me but he was so encouraging
This professor annoyed me at times he would tell you to study one thing and then when the test came I wouldn't be one there. This class is very challenging so be prepared to study. He only calls on people who receives an A. I passed the class but he gives you a lot of materials to help I guess.
I love this professor! I took his class this semester and I got A. He gave us lots of extra credits! The test is not that hard if you study!!
My favorite teacher by far. Funny and entertaining, paying attention to his lectures are important. He keeps you on your toes in a good way.
Amazing professor take him if your willing to work hard. Anatomy is not an easy subject but is very manageable with a little effort and hard work. He expects you to work for your grade, not just walk in and think its an easy A.
If you want to actually know the material so that you can be ready for anything in the medical field, JUST TAKE HIM. He explains everything well. In case of if you miss a class, it won't bother you much because all of his lectures are online. Don't memorize anything because memorization with no comprehension will make you fail. Over all it's EZ
He is a great teacher and is very fair , you just have to study and do the work , he makes the class very interesting to learn, and is easy going, he is very helpful and give you all the resources you need to pass his class, there is no way to fail. I definitely take him again.
Pro. Sainvil is the funniest professor I have ever had. No one fell asleep in his class at 8 a.m. because he is a comedian. He knows his stuff and always has a smile on. You have 5 exams with one make up exam. Anatomy is not easy so study a lot. I needed the class for my reg. AA and it was my favorite class of all time because of him. A must take.
Took him for BSC 2085 & BSC 2086 Lectures and got an A in both! I'm so thankful i took his class. I learned a lot and it was really interesting. I took BSC2086 in 6 weeks. It was a lot in such a short time but if you STUDY you will be fine. 4 exams, one makeup to replace lowest score, quizzes and extra credit. I studied the powerpoints.
Anatomy is easy, but it is time consuming. -Watch the online lectures. -It's quicker to study off of the powerpoints than to read from the book. -He gives 9 EC points on exams for doing 3 connect assignments. -Exam Qs come from the online game show -Exams are really easy, the same questions show up multiple times.
I would take that class any day. It's anatomy, you need to study. He explains clearly, and if you need help go to him, He really want the best for you. Really easy class. I rarely go to the book, only when I need to memorize something. All I did was paying attention. Easy A... Great great teacher.
One of the best professors I've ever had in my college experience. He is the best. He knows the material and explains it very well so even a bum off the street could understand. If you don't pass his class, it's your own fault.
Professor Sainvil is an awesome professor he keeps the class interesting and keeps you focused. He does make alot of jokes. He gives extra credit. You must listen to his recordings this helps alot. He trys to help you as much as he can. He cares if you pass.
So funny. Yet I learned a ton. It's anatomy so you must study your a lot. He gives clear power points to study from and can use McGraw hill. Flexible if I missed class to retake. He gives you the way to pass its up to you to put the work in. Also gives plenty extra credit.
Take him! He is an amazing teacher. He does have an accent but he's always willing to repeat himself. He's so funny and engaging that you won't mind attending class. He really wants students to do well and provides every chance to do so. The way he teaches anatomy will help you in your future endeavors. You can easily pass this class with an A.
HE IS AMAZINGGGGGGGG. If you want to be a nurse and willing to work to learn your anatomy take him. His lectures are so funny you will be dying but at the end, you would have learned so much I took for Anatomy 1 and 2 and there was never a chance I regretted taking him. I love him so much I'm going to beg him to teach micro the following semester.
Absolutely love him, very funny, makes learning easier with all the tips and examples that he gives relating to subject matter. Gives extra credit to help bring up your grade, I took his class -fast track (a lot of work) but doable. I would sure do another class with him.
Adore him. Makes anatomy fun, taking for anatomy 2. A lot of work, but any anatomy class you will take will be. Puts online lectures, you need an Eclicker.
Please do yourself a favor and take him! You have to put the work in just like anything else but you will come out understanding Anatomy. He is always there for you and gives extra credit to help. 4 exams plus a make up to drop the lowest score. He is truly amazing and by far my favorite professor at BC. I regret not taking him for A&P 1.
I LOVE THIS GUY. HE IS BEYOND AMAZING. YOU WILL NEED TO PUT IN WORK BUT WELL WORTH IT. YOU WILL LEARN A LOT ABOUT ANATOMY. PLUS HE IS FUNNY WHICH IS A BONUS. TAKE HIM!!!
Horrible and doesn't answer emails at all. Don't take him at all.
Never again
I like him because he is funny and nice, other than that he has a thick accent hard to understand. All of his lectures are online, 4 parts to each chapter 50 mins long. Very hard to listen to them all if you have a full time job. You almost have to listen to them over because its hard to understand. Very frustrating!If you don't keep up your behind
AMAZING! He made anatomy my easiest class of all my others. He truly wants you to pass and is just GREAT! Keeps you awake and you actually learn USEFUL information. Don't hesitate. Choose him.
Other than his heavy accent, he is an amazimg professor!!! He loves the medical field and has many ways to teach you the same thing. He's very very helpful and willing to work with those students putting forth effort. P!ease take for anatomy 1 and 2 !
Willing to work with you the whole way through the course. Accent is a little tough to understand at first but over the course it gets better. Only 4 tests and allows a make up test. Curves the tests but requires clicker technology for all test. So far the best teacher I've had for anatomy.
Professor Sainvil is an amazing Anatomy & Physiology teacher. I took him for Anatomy & Physiology 1 & 2. He has an accent but he talks clearly and he is fair with grades. He gives an 8 point curve on tests if you do the connect assignments. He likes to joke around & will call on you if it looks like you're not paying attention.
Professor Sainvil is a great teacher. Don't take his blended class because it's harder. You have to study in order to pass but he provides you with everything you need in order to pass. Extra credit and curve for tests. All of his lectures are online. If you don't like studying or putting in effort, don't take him. He is an amazing professor though
He has a Jamaica accent, he's lazy, he stands there for 1 hour and 15 minutes, 2 days a week and babbles on about his power points which are available online, all you have is a book and online homework that don't help, there's 4 chapters on each test, and he says he doesn't care and it's not problem. It's a memory class. It's just a pay check.
As long as you put in the work, he will always meet you halfway. Lectures are online and in class, so you can refer to them as you study. Extra credit and a 9 point curve. I took him for AP1 and AP2. He does have an accent, but it doesn't interfere. He's an awesome teacher, and makes the class fun. It is a lot of studying, but an A is possible.
The best professor at Broward college! He cares for his students and makes lectures really interesting and funny! If you're taking anatomy I would recommend him 100%!! Anatomy is hard but as long as you study and do the extra credits you will be fine!
The best professor you want to take for Anatomy and Physiology I & II!!!! You don't just learn but will understand the human body. He provides useful resources that is also beneficial for the Lab class, you will not fall asleep in his class!!! Study and you will achieve the grade you deserve! Wish if he would also teach Microbiology....
Yes, this A&P is tough. However, Dr. Sainvil makes the class as easy and as fun as he can. If youre not majoring in science or medicine I dont recommend, but if you need to learn and understand Anatomy, he is deffinitely the person to go to. He knows the subject really well and will try to make sure his students do too. He is an outstanding prof
Best A&P Professor there is!!! Once you get used to his accent you'll breeze through the class!! There are 4 tests and a bunch of quizzes. There is no hw but if you do connect he gives 10 points extra credit on each test. He drops the lowest grade and replaces it with a make up test.
Great Professor !! A&P is not a easy course but his teaching style helps you understand the physiology of anatomy. He wants all his students to pass so he gives a lot of opportunity to pass the course. He has lectures online, he gives 9 extra credit on each test if you do the connect online and his quizzes is awesome.
Professor Sainvil is awesome! I loved his class and I would take his class again. He gives great examples and he made me believe that if I could pass A&P 1&2 then I'm able to pass any class! 4 test (1 makeup to replace lowest grade) 10 quizzes that he gives you the answer to most of them or makes us answer it out loud.
He has a strong Haitian accent BUT you get used to it and you can always ask him to repeat, he is super nice. He is the best. 4 exams. 10 quizzes. One make up exam that replaces lowest grade. He gives extra credit. Take him, dont give up along the way. Study it is anatomy and physiology, you need to study
Professor Sainvil is an awesome professor! you must try and do the work and Participation matters! go to class, study, and do the connects (it really helps!) he curves the test on a 9 point scale if you do the connect assignments and he cares about his students and is extremely friendly & funny. AGAINHe is awesome and I am taking him for BSC2086
TAKE HIM. Amazing Professor, great at explaining A&P, gives you a chance for extra credit. 6 week class, hybrid. A lot of studying to do but he helps with anything you need or any questions you have. He's hilarious, you won't even want to miss his class. Lectures are online. Will be taking again for A&P II for sure.
TAKE HIM!!! If you take my advise and take him you'll wonder where he has been all your life, especially if you have not taken him for Anatomy 1. If you put the work in and attend his lectures there is nooooo way you will not pass. Get ready, he is hilarious. One of those professors that you will always remember for the good.
Dr. Sainvil is one of the best professors I've ever had. He is hilarious and really gets everyone involved in the lecture. The quizzes are super easy and he offers a makeup test to replace your lowest exam grade. Homework is not mandatory but he gives extra credit for it. Most of the lecture is from his power points and lecture videos. Easy A.
This teacher is the best . Gives you half of the answers for the quizzes & tells you exactly what to study for the exams . He is funny , great humor , helpful , & curves grades . Only con is he has a very thick accent but that's no biggie .
If you want to learn anything about ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY I recommend that you take Professor Sainvil for both AP I & II. He is amazing when it comes to teaching. He really loves his job and the materials itself. Jokes for days and knows how to relate to us as young adults. I wish I could take him for more courses!!!!!
So very lucky that I had him for BSC2085 & BSC2086! I love this man!! He is a great professor. He breaks the topic down, & use jokes and antidotes to help me successfully remember a lot of material. Just be sure to listen to all of his online lectures a couple of times, & print out his power point notes (use a highlighter to mark important points).
He is hilarious and always happy! I miss him! There's 4 tests and 13 quizzes, he gives extra credit on the tests if you do the online activities. He lectures in class and online. DO NOT take him for the 6 week session esp. if you have other classes. A LOT of studying. This is not an easy A class, he makes work for it. An A/B is possible though!
He is funny but rude funny, I love his class. Lots of work but it's extra credit toward your you test. It helps your grade... 100 questions on each test and quiz mad easy. I learned so much, especially from lecture Alone
He is such an amazing professor and person. he gives plenty of extra credit opportunities and helps students that care and are interested in doing well. he is HILARIOUS! i die of laughter with his crazily funny examples. he made it easier for us to understand the material. heavy heavy accent but you get used to it. overall Amazing!
HANDS DOWN ONE OF THE BEST PROFESSORS I'VE TAKEN THUS FAR!!!! He definitely knows his subject VERY WELL and takes the time to make sure his students learn and pass. If you put in the time there's no reason why you should fail. I definitely enjoyed every minute of AP1/AP2 with Prof. Sainvil. I only wish I took him full term and not accelerated.
HE IS AN AWESOME TEACHER forever and always. he cares about his students and relates his lectures to real life things. i would definitely take him again even though it was a 6 week course i managed to get a B.
The Absolute BEST college professor I have ever had! Makes it easy to learn your anatomy subject by repetition and class and relates to everyday life things. He is very understanding and wants you to pass, not fail! You have to work for your grade, but he by far will help as much as he can to make sure you pass! Would take again!!Highly recommended
Great professor, taking him again for BSC2086. Lectures are entertaining and interesting. Posts all his lectures online. Online quizzes. 4 exams (4 ch each). Do the Connect assignments & you'll have 8 pts extra credit for each exam. Don't expect an easy A, you have to study. However, an A is definitely achievable with him. I highly recommend!
BEST professor at BC. he is extremely funny and will explain the conceps with funny examples for the student to remember them better. gives plenty of extra credit. the class is not very very hard, its just the amount of studying and trust me if you dont study you WON'T PASS. TAKE HIM!
His lectures were too much to learn in a short period of time
Professor Sainvil is by far the best Anatomy professor out there! He is dedicated to teaching and cares about his students being successful in the field they're entering. This class isn't hard to pass, as long as you put the work in and study hard you will easily understand the material and pass with an A. Take him, you wont regret it!
Broward College presents comedy hour with Frantz Sainvil. "APPLAUSE"
if you take the blended course (8 weeks) of course it will be a lot more demanding, it is your choice, and your responsability. he is just AMAZING!!!!! he tells tou exactly what will be on every test, gives way to many extra credit and cares about you passing. this is not an easy class but you will learn with him. if you are ready to work. TAKE HIM
Best Anatomy & Philology Professor ever! He is HILARIOUS and makes learning fun. All the negative reviews were written by those who failed his class due to procrastination and lack of effort. If you are looking for an easy A this is not the class for you. Be prepared to STUDY for the entire semester or you will FAIL.
Dr. Sainvil made his class a breeze, if you can get in his class don't hesitate, he's good at what he does. Do the connect and listen to his lectures online and you'll pass easily.
Makes boring anatomy lectures fun and interesting. His examples and analogies makes science clear and easy to understand. He likes those who put effort in his class .Very down to earth person,likes to talk to everyone. Gives many tools to succeed in this course.
He's great. you have to study. you cannot pass an Anatomy class by guessing the answers. you have to know the materials. don't expect a miracle. he'll help you if you need him. he also give a make up test.
he's a very good professor, but you have to study hard in his class. It's not an easy A class. Be prepare and make sure you have to listen to his lecture more than 3 time. He gives a lot extra credit.
Watch out and run Im warning you . Dont let the 4.3 fool you ok. Doesn't speak clear English . He say I Dont Care !!!
Don't take fast paced class with him
He makes learning A&P easy, listen to the lectures and come to class. Gives extra credit, drops jokes in every class, he's passionate in his profession and you can clearly see it. STUDY ON QUIZLET AND YOU'LL PASS.
Do not let the thick accent sway you, after about the 2nd-3rd lecture you get used to it. He's deff. not an easy A, if anything he makes you earn your A, but with that said he rewards your effort. His lectures are hysterically funny. YOU WILL REMEMBER LECTURES. Take advantage of the online CONNECT and his lectures and you should do well.
He isn't the best instructor. He is negative and not empowering. To discribe him him always in rush and doesn't care about his students
Lazy and always sitting down never stand. Loud and rude in which he make fun of students. Teach like he's a high school teacher. Wait of time and money run.
Don't take him. VERY RUDE. most likely you will fail
A&P can be challenging, but this professor explains everything in a way you won't forget. I did not like him at the beginning because he has a different sense of humor. Overall, there was 16 quizzes, 4 major tests, connect assignments for extra credit, and a makeup replacement exam if you need it. If you put in effort, you will get an A.
This was one of my favorite professors at BC by far. If you're interested in learning your material, his class is a breeze. Extra credit, easy connect assignments, and online quizzes. Easy A if you're willing to put in the time. Not a class to reply only on instructor, read the book and do a lot of practice questions.
If you going to take professor santvil you have to study !! You can not pass if you don't study ! He helps you to become a better person if you listen to him . To pass his class do "connect" and listen to his "lectures "
By far, the best professor I've ever had. I worked very hard for an A, but with all the hard work and studying, I learned A LOT! His lectures are hilarious and he teaches the material in ways you actually can relate to and understand. If you skip class, you won't pass. Gives tons of extra credit. I recommend taking half online/half in class.
He is the best professor i have ever had in my life. Super funny, caring, and helps the students as much as he can. gives a lot of extra credit and tells you what will be on the tests. i HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM
He is the best professor at BC. Do NOT let other negative reviews fool you. he is the absolute best anatomy professor. he DOES care about his students, there is A LOT of extra credit and as long as you study you would get an A. the only negative review that I agree with is the one that gives warning to not take his fast paced class. IMPOSSIBLE
If you want to learn Anatomy any physiology this is the professor to take , its not going to be an easy grade but you will learn the material.
He gave me hope in becoming the nurse I always wanted to be. You have to study hard. At least four hours a day. Do extra credit, it will help you in the long run. He wants his students to pass. Just be ready to put all your energy into the class. It takes a lotta work and reading.
I LOVE THIS PROFESSOR !!!!!!! Only Prof I'll ever take for A&P honestly. He's so funny, and he makes it impossible to fail this class, he uses connect and puts his lectures online so u can always go back and listen to them. People say this class is difficult but it's only hard if u don't try. It's a science class for crying out loud
Great professor, knows his material very well, and a funny guy. To be honest I have no idea how I passed this class. He makes it impossible to fail. Best advice I can give you is to remember the questions on the quizzes cause they'll be on the exam. Don't be afraid to email him cause he's willing to help.
he is a funny teacher. I think he gives enough opportunity to pass the class, so it is up to u to make em work in ur favor. since my 1rst day in the class after he told us what it takes and how to pass his class I made passing a priority & it was for my good. he makes u feel like u r a nurse already since he gives actual case scenario as a nurse.
He is hilarious! Makes the class more fun and interesting. He gives you many resources to pass the class which is difficult all in itself. If you study hard and dedicate most of your time to learning the material you will pass. I like his online lectures and power points which are very helpful in studying for exams. He knows his stuff!
he is simply amazing by far the best professor i ever had just study hard and you will past.
One of the best if not the best professors I have ever had. He makes everything to easy to understand. If you don't pass the class it is because you just don't care. He gives extra credit and you get one test grade dropped. Took heim for both A&P 1, A&P 2. I got A's in both classes not labs.
Dr. Sainvil is truly an amazing Professor. He's extremely entertaining, you will laugh and learn at the same time. One of the best professors I have ever taken! Gives extra credit and drops your lowest grades with a make up exam. You will gain a lot of knowledge from him.
if don't pay attention in this class you won't pass, he's great in teaching the class. Amazing, funny teacher, but u don't want to fall behind and fail, cause the course is hard.
This professor is hands down the best BC has honestly. I took him for session 4 and I don't regret it. His grading criteria is CLEAR, never any homework besides studying. His lecture consists of 4 exams & an optional 5th exam to help your grade. There was a quiz every other lab, nothing hard. He is HILARIOUS, knows his stuff! loved him!
Best. Professor. I've. Ever. Had. He's able to explain everything very simply so that it makes sense. He genuinely wants his students to succeed and he loves when you visit him for office hours. He posts all of his lectures online, has 8 pts of EC per test (I think), has LearnSmart to help study, and has game shows posted for self-quizzing. Study!
I'm truly convinced that the students that gave him a good review only took one class and did not work. The second test, no exgerattion, expects you to read over 600 slides. And make sure you know everything because he will ask you the specific details on the test. Also, he proctors his exams for those that want to take his blended. Save your money
I love Anatomy but Sanvil is very hard to understand, thick accent and flies through a lot of the material. Anatomy 2 is a hard class as it is, but with him you're mostly on your own. take the first test and you'l see much of the material you can find online. He is funny which helps to get through class. But honestly id rather of taken him online
He has a thick Haitian accent. If you don't read the material and go through all his powerpoints before class, you're going to be lost. It's mainly tests grades, but he gives out extra credit for each test. You're basically on your own and have to teach yourself and put in a lot of time to study in order to pass this class.
Took him for A&P 1 & 2. Didnt open the textbook once for A&P 2. I use his practice questions & online lectures for study material. Lowest test grade was an 82. Study & youll pass. His lectures are usually funny & he does call on people but does not make you feel stupid when you dont know answers, but shows you a way to remember on tests.
I LOVE THIS MAN AND CANNOT WAIT TO TAKE HIM AGAIN
He gives you so many opportunities to pass by you just putting in a little effort. Extra credit on every test and quizzes to do at home on D2L that are basically all on quizlet. He does have an accent, but he does post his lectures to listen at home. He is a good professor and you wont regret it. Took him for A&P1 and now Im taking him for A&P2.
One of my favorite professors. He doesnt really teach so just study in class while pretending to pay attention to his jokes. Tests are easy if you can memorize. Just google the quiz questions from D2L, everything is on Quizlet so study everything from there. All of his Exam questions are from Quizlet. He gives +8 pt extra credit every Exam.
Prof Sainvil is super funny, he tells it how it is. His lectures are available online along with his PowerPoints. He offers extra credit and a makeup exam, be sure to do the quizzes he has in D2L those will save your grade! He is caring and is available outside of class in his office!
Beware don't explain just talk about unrelated information and sit down while teach not good for professor.
I took him for both a&p 1 & 2 and he's by far one of the best professor i ever took. Attendance was not mandatory but trust me when i tell you he's such a great professor that i looked forward to going to class. Not only is he very inspiring but he's very funny. When it came down to taking the exams make sure you do the learn smarts!!
This professor is hilarious and really cool. He breaks things down in a way you can understand and remember. He does sort of go through the chapter pretty fast, but that is probably because of the time frame. He does have sort of a thick accent but understandable. Overall he's great, just make sure to do the practice tests and study!!
very funny teacher he does lectures and tells you whats on the test but you have to study hard and he makes you work for your grade, half the class dropped but he makes you learn usefull i formation. I suggest taking this class alone youll need a lot of time to study
Prof. Sainvil is the BEST at teaching anatomy. He gives real life examples of what you are learning and excellent analogies and studying strategies. Anatomy is a lot of memorization so you will need a lot of study time, but Sainvil is extremely fair and offers plenty of extra credit opportunities. I am so happy I took him for A&P!
I took his blended course. Show up to class as he goes over concepts in depth, but the key to an A is READING THE BOOK! Learn! It won't be easy, but he does all he can to set us up for success. Listen to his online lectures, take practice questions in the online textbook, and have a study group! Be prepared to teach yourself, but ask questions!
Professor Sainvail is the worst professor Ive taken at broward . So theres 4 test, 4 chapters per test and 200 slides per chapter . So in total theres 600 slides to study for each exam . Quizzes are on D2L. Extra credit on connect but not much help to boost your grade . He says you should already know the material since its Anatomy 2.
Prof. Sainvil is an amazing professor. All quizzes on D2L, 4 exams and 1 make-up exam to replace the lowest exam grade and extra credit when you do Connect. Overall he made class so much fun by cracking up jokes. He is always happy and stress free, I've learn a lot of life lessons from him. I will be taking him again!
At first I was highly disappointed on the amount of slides he expect us to study from for the exam then I realize the only way to pass his class is by studying from online d2l practice guide and quizlet. In my personal opinion I believe the quiz and extra credit helps a lot overall. I learn so much from his class. hes hilarious!!
He's really carefree and funny when he teaches. He makes you interested in his lectures and his jokes and little life lessons are both inspirational and hilarious. The grading criteria are 16 quizzes (10 questions) and 4 exams including the final. Make sure you never miss a quiz because it helps you as well as the connect practice.
Professor Sainvil class was amazing. If you study his power-point and do connect you will pass each exam. He gives extra credit for each example. He is always willing to help you if you go his office hours. You must go to class because he tells you exactly what you need to study for each exam. I will be taking him for BSC 2086L and Bsc 2086.
One of the best professors I've had so far. He has a strong accent which may be difficult to understand sometimes but aside from that he gives great lectures which are hilarious and makes the material easier to understand. However it is still a tough class and you won't just be able to breeze through it, you'll have to read and do all assignments.
He's nice, but doesn't really teach. There's plenty of online resources to help you: Connect, recorded lectures, practice questions, etc. There is a make-up test! You go to class just to be there, most of the time we're not even talking about the material :( Wasted time. Wouldn't take again, but he's a nice person and if you study LOTS you'll pass.
This professor is amazing. I took him for BSC 2085 and BSC 2086L /BSC 2086 and wish he would teach more classes. When he teach he explain everything and make sure you understand the material. If you have any questions about anything he will answer your questions. Professor Sainvil syllabus was very clear, he does a make-up test to help your grade.
If you are planning on majoring in health science, Professor Sainvil is about as good as you will get for A/P Lecture. He will not hand you an easy A or B, but he is always available to help you along the way when you need it. True he does have a strong accent, but his humor will make up for it. Will certainly be taking him again for 2086 this fall
Professor Sainvil is great! He really makes the subject interesting and does an amazing job applying anatomy with the real world. Gives extra credit. If you study in advance for his test, you will be just fine!
5 tests worth 100 points. 4th one is a make up test which is optional to replace your lowest grade. 16 quizzes on D2L worth 10 points each. All the answers are on quizlet. He's hilarious I really enjoyed the class but to pass you really need to listen to his online recorded lectures and do the learn smart on connect. 8 points extra credit per test.
He is a funny and entertaining professor BUT DOES NOT mean he's easy! You will be studying so much information. He lectures off his powerpoints and jokes, but none are useful for the test. Test are not easy! The professor isn't a bad guy, just doesn't teach for the test. you will be teaching yourself everything...
Great professor! He prepares you for nursing and medical school. Exams arent easy but they arent hard especially if you study. Study, study, Study! Hes a jokester, great person and makes learning AP fun
This class is like a comedy show rather than an actual anatomy and physiology course. The man jokes all of class and when he does start teaching I cant lie he does relate the things to the real world but gets off topic easily and skips majority of slides! he wants us to listen to hour long lectures like we have no other courses 7 times or 10!
I will start off by saying the only reason I'm taking this professor is because of the somewhat good reviews compared to other professors. There is SO much reading. Be aware that you will be teaching yourself. He says to listen to online lectures of himself talking but he doesn't even state what's important to write down in those recorded lectures.
Terrible !!!!!! DO NOT TAKE HIM AT ALL... HE IS THE WORST ANATOMY TEACHER I EVER HAD IN COLLEGE! WAY TO MANY POWERPOINTS AND HE DOES NOT TEACH ALL HE DOES IS JOKE AROUD ALL DAY.
PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS GUY, HE GIVES 200 POWERPOINTS PER CHAPTER !!! ITS 4 CHAPTERS IN ONE,SO ITS 800 IN ONE AND HE WANTS YOU TO KNOW EVERYTHING !!!!!! THE WORST PROFESSOR I EVER TOOK
Very funny man, doesnt stress you if youre late or miss class as long as you know your stuff. He relates everything to real life. No homework, the quizzes are online, basically open book, theres no way you can fail them. Theres 4 exams and one make up exam you can take to help your grade. Great class and great professor. Ill definitely pass.
I had to leave before I received an F. This class is DIFFICULT. He speaks as if everyone wants to become nurses. We have 300+ slides to read and study for 4 chapters. The tests barely have what he says to write down because its important. I regret taking this professor. BEWARE. No matter how you study nothing helps
This professor is AMAZING. Yes, you have to study, but you will understand everything by taking his class. i wish there were more professors like him.
He's a wonderful teacher who really cares about his students and goes the extra mile after class to explain to students. Extra credit opportunities help with your grade but also help you in exams.
He really cares about his students and makes sure you know the material for real life. I'm a dental hygienist major so most of what he said was important in the hospital is never going to apply to me but still very nice! You work for your grade but he gives one extra exam which is a make up, and plenty extra credit for points toward exam. STUDY!!!
I am a big fan of Professor Sainvil because he made the lecturers fun. He also made an A obtainable for 3 reasons: 1) he asks students questions all the time ! This keeps you awake and helps you learn 2) as a physician he relates the material to real life health industry and so it made me attentive 3) he is very playful and cheerful
Great professor! you will learn alot about anatomy with him hes also very funny, i took his blended fast course class so his lectures in the class was mostly a recap of chapters. He already has videos explaining every chapter online, Videos are SUPER long. Gives alot of extra credit, can pick on you to answer questions in class.
Professor Sainvil is a nice guy. He provides alot of extra credit but one thing I do not like is that he moves way too fast through the notes and youre not really told what to study. If we were told what to study maybe grades would look better. Anyways ppts are alot.
Attendance is not mandatory, but you will miss very important information to know either for your exam or HESI. Our exams will computer generated, and they were a little bit hard. As a Fast Track, it was A LOT to study for. Do not take as fast track if you have more than 2 classes in the same 8 weeks. He's funny, and asks questions to engage.
Awesome professor very funny and entertaining, relates real life problems to the course material. But get ready to study, the exams are very tough, but if you do the extra credit you should be fine.
Nice guy, but I don't think I'd take him again. Testing material is pulled from a pool of questions available online, material he never covers in lectures (recorded or in person) are on these tests. You are expected to learn the material yourself. Now we're seeing 3 major tests in a month's time due to covid-19. Pretty unreasonable. Heavy accent!
Heres the complete break down 16 chapters split into 4 chapters each So you will have 4 Test (1-4)(5-8)(9-12)(13-16) He does have a Test 5 ( optional) I high recommend you take it because it replaces your lowest grade. 16 Quizzes ( EASY) Connect homework ( 16 chapters) but if you score over an 85 he will add 10 points to your test .
Professor Sainvil is one of the Best Anatomy Teacher at Broward College. Please take him! I will miss his lectures because I learned so much from his lectures. You will learn a lot from him. Do not think he will hand you an easy A, but if you do all of the Connect chapter quizzes, every chapter game show on D2L, you will be fine. Great Teacher!
Professor Sainvil is awesome! Quizzes on D2L, 4 exams, 1 makeup exam, and connect for extra credit. In lectures he keeps you engaged by telling jokes and challenging you by asking questions so you don't fall asleep in his class. if you don' understand the topic he'll go over it to make sure that you do. Nevertheless, STUDY HARD!
This is a very tough class. There are chapter quizzes on D2L, 4 exams, 1 makeup exam, and connect practice assignments for extra credit. If you do not pay attention in class and study hard you will not pass his class. He is really good at keeping you engaged during class by telling jokes and stories that relate to the material he is discussing.
Amazing professor . Hilarious to boot. Gives extra credit, allows one make up exam and surprise extensions for studying the test! My only regret is that I didn't take him for ap2��
Dr. Sainvil doesn't respond regularly to the entire class weekly, you will have to work hard to get the grade you expect, it will not be magically given. The exams are not to be played with, 50 questions(study,study,study). just do your best with all the sections and you will pass.
This prof is amazing and I couldnt ask for a better professor, he replies to him emails on him and cares about his studentS I was looking to see if he had a lab class available fall semester Sadly I didnt see it I would of take him again; all I can say is Thank you and youre awesome.
Dr. Sainvil is one of the most wonderful professors I have had. He is funny and inspirational. His class is difficult and is definitely not for those who don't intend to study more than they sleep. Strict but caring, wants to see you succeed. This class requires many sacrifices, and many had to be made for me to maintain a high A in his class.
He truly cares about his students. I took his 6 week face paced class online and I was a little skeptical at first especially due to this pandemic but this professor made it as easy as possible. Class is easy and he makes sure you understand. The professor is very understanding and gives many chances to complete assignments. HIGHLY RECOMEND!
HE REALLY IS A GREAT TEACHER. AND HE TRULY WANTS YOU TO PASS. HE'S ONE OF THE BEST ANTOMY PROFESSORS AT BROWARD AND IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE TO TAKE HIS CLASS DO IT. I PROMISE YOU WONT REGRET IT. HE TEACHES SO GOOD THAT I HONESTLY WOULD GET UPSET THAT CLASS WAS OVER CAUSE I WANTED TO LEARN MORE AND I HATE SCIENCE LOL, SO THAT SHOULD SAY ALOT.
LITERALLY THE BEST PROFESSOR IVE EVER HAD! This guy really wants to see everyone pass, hes not out to fail you! Hes teaches anatomy and relates to real life situations youd see in the hospital. He pre-records his lectures so watch them before class so its easier to understand. Overall, Id give him 100 for my rating.
Love him! He explains AP in a way to relate to real life and prepares you for the medical field. BC is lucky to have this man! I learned so much from him. AP is medicine and you must understand it not just memorize it. Dont need the text, its online w/Connect subscription. Do quizzes & 8pt ex. credits for exams, watch videos, do quizlets.
I love this prof he is hilarious and makes analogies that really helps the info stick. I want to take him for Anat. 2 but he doesn't teach the session I want smh. You HAVE to study and learn thats just how Anatomy classes go period. The textbook is required for sure. He also offered extra credit throughout the semester as well. He's so nice lol
Such an amazing professor! Breaks down the material very well, very clear on grading. Takes the time for students to understand the PowerPoints given, which is really good. Hes funny, loves to communicate with his students. Anatomy is overall hard so make sure you study. If you dont receive a B or higher, its on your part not the professor.
Professor Sainvil is probably the best anatomy professor at broward college its hard finding a teacher that actually cares if you pass or not would take him over and over if i could
Who wrote these reviews? Seriously! I think his nieces or family members. If you like guessing what will be on your test take him. His lectures are funny but you will have no idea what's on your tests. His lectures have about 20% to do with his quizzes and exam because his lectures are from 2013. This was my 1st C! I studied for hours!
Tons of work, too many rotating questions on the quizzes so it's harder to study for the main points, only one attempt on the quizzes, honor lock is intrusive.
This professor is by far the worst professor I have taken ever in my college career! I already have received a bachelor's degree, so I have had 4 years of professors. He is rude, mean, and puts you down. He called us stupid and annoying in one of our classes this summer term. I studied more then I did it my undergrad and received a C. RUN!
he really have no sympathy, his classes are funny but i studied for hours and days but his his tests has so much questions which makes it so difficult to pass.
awful. he make the online class more complicated than it's. there are so many questions on his exam. He wants his student to fail that why he make the test so hard and irrelevant. He also wants you to print your grade out which he is supposed to do that on his own. Regret taking his class. If you want a life. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PROF
I didn't know we had a professor. He was absent the WHOLE CLASS. Worst class I've taken in a very long time.
Genuinely the best professor I've had, he offers a lot of extra credit and will work with you to understand what you need to know for the exams although this class requires pretty much undivided attention to get an A or B
Stay away from this guy. DO NOT TAKE HIM!!! Anatomy is a tough subject but he made it harder. His exams are extremely difficult, 80 questions each one of them. Who does that? You will spend an entire day trying to do 300 questions+ for extra credit. Not worth it.
Took him for 1 & 2. Did not like him, but the tests w extra credit he gives were too fair to pass up. U need to study hard. Watching his lectures is useless bc he just reads the PowerPoint (which is too brief to understand) & he does the same in class- I stopped going, but hell tell u whats most important on the tests. Book will guarantee u a B.
Professor Sainvil is the man. I love his style of connecting the material to a hospital setting. A lot of cohesion in his class. Makes A&P II fun every class. Allows you to learn from home if you need to. How you do is up to you, if you study and use the provided resources you will excel. Make sure you digest BSC2085 well as it carries over.
I'm going straigh to the point DONT TAKE HIM. You read A LOT in his modules. You can actually tell that he doesnt actually check any of the assignments and he gives you a 100% for free. Quizzes and Exams are both with HonorLock and they're super hard, there's some questions that had nothing to do with the information that he provides. I had to drop
Man just dont do it
Not that bad if you just do the work, do it ahead of time the professor give you a chance to make up your work. I passed with a C I will take that cause online Biology is very hard.
Hes not easy if you wanna sleep in class but hes easy if youre willing to learn everything he teaches and review are on the quizzes but beware his exam questions are randomly selected so please review all chapter rather if say not to and pay attention to smartbook that extra credit work is literally what his exam base on to the T he is lenient
Professor Sainvil is a great teacher; he teaches based on what you will see in the hospital. You will have to read a lot; extra credit is given through doing connects. It is not an easy class, so please study to achieve your desired grade.
He is a very caring Professor. He is a Medical Doctor,so he knows his stuff. Anatomy is hard, so you will have to study a lot in order to pass his class. If you need to be good in the Medical field,he is the man to go to!
Online course, no communication for changes and barely replies to emails. Overall easy class but not worth the stress and amount of work and quizzes you have to take proctored. Gave 2-3 assignments, a proctored quiz (1 attempt each) , and 1-2 exams (1 attempt each) in a week. Goodluck.
Funny Professor, will take again, just study do your work on d2l and you be fine. I’m taking him again for sure. And respectful. And all exams is Honorlock. And quizzes is not timed.
Very funny and makes the class go by fast. Be ready to be called on non-stop. Do all extra credit as it really moves your grade on tests. He gave 2 points/chapter of Connect (many hours). It can move up your test score 8 points. He also gives a 5th test/drop lowest test score at end. Massive reading and no study guide. I will take him for A&P 2.
I had Dr.Sainvil for anatomy 1 and 2. And he is, without a doubt, the best anatomy professor you could have. He makes his lectures entertaining, engaging, and funny while relating them to what to expect in the hospital. He also offers extra credit for each exam if you do the connect, which can be time-consuming. Overall, I recommend taking him!
I took this class 2020 and I was frighten because I did not know what to expect! It was a very challenging class for me, but I can't forget the material until now because professor Sainvil connected the material to reality stories and he was so funny. As much as this class was hard as much as I loved it because of the matirial I learned. Good luck!
Professor Sainvil is a medical doctor who has good knowledge in the science field. He does not sugarcoat anything! He teaches what you will see in the hospital. The exams and extra credits are very heavy and take hours to complete. Dr. Sainvil is very lenient and caring! He has great teaching strategies and techniques for you to succeed! Top tier!
WRITING IN CAPS. THE BEST AT BCC, MY FAVORITE PROFESSOR. I WAS GETTING READY TO QUIT SCHOOL, AND HE ENCOURAGED ME TO STAY, BECAUSE I CAN DO IT. NEVER MET ANYONE LIKE THIS. HE WAS JOVIAL, FUNNY, AMAZING AND SO FAR MY BEST PROFESSOR. WISH I HAD HIM FOR MATH, PSYCHOLOGY AND ALL MY OTHER SUBJECTS. KUDOS TO MY FAVORITE PROFESSOR.
BSC2010L: Awful at responding to emails, unorganized, quizzes are difficult even studying lab manual, won't open documents you send in emails, won't adequately grade assignments, poor communication, lab assignments have no correlation with biology, most lab documents don't work or open, no exams but very quiz heavy. I wish I dropped this class.
I don't understand how he has a 4.9/5 .. his labs are the worse. No review and its all written response. Makes it very hard for you to pass. You don't even know whats going to be on the exams. Test are hard also because its all written response... He barley emails us back and when he does he tells us to contact someone else to help us... Hard Pass.
Do not take his class. You would think this 1 credit class is 4 credits with all the work. His quizzes are all type in answers but without clear pictures pictures or pictures from book. Worst ever.
Dr. Sainvil is a very knowledgeable medical doctor,and anatomy professor at Broward College. I am glad that he was my professor,as I have learned a lot from him. His teaching style is interactive,and supportive. He is by far one of the best teacher at BC. Take him,you will not regret it.
Honestly the worst, do not waste your time. I don't know how he has such a high rating. I would rather be taught by a goldfish.
2 exams 24 modules Reviews for every module LOTS of memorization Quiz questions recycled Make a group chat with your classmates Get ready to study
He is a nice person, he is hilarious but throughout the semester I felt like my soul was leaving my body from so much studing. You will have to learn the book, not parts of it, every detail of every chapter. However, you can still get a good grade and learn a lot, just good-bye any ounce of happiness left in you.
I made a poor choice choosing him. During lectures, his focus is not on what you, as a student NEED to know in order to excel on the 5 exams. If you're anything like me, you prefer a prof who is focused, helpful and straightforward. I want to add that he often makes offensive jokes, especially regarding Christianity. Super uncomfortable class.
He is the best professor, seriously if you are looking for a professor who explain with a little of life example and in an interactive mode he is for you, his tests are hard, but if you study the power points and study hard you should pass, I will take him again seriously, he is so funny and a nice person, his classes are the best.
Dr. Sainvil is a fantastic professor. Had him for both A&P 1 and 2. He engages with students during lecture, provides real life relevant medical examples to help understand the material. A&P isnt an easy subject and it does require studying but he tells you areas to focus on for his exams which are very fair. Its very easy to do well in this class.
MY FAV TEACHER EVER. I love professor Sainvil. He teaches in a way that you'll actually remember and understand when you enter a hospital setting. Took him for both AP 1&2 and did super well in both classes. Make sure you read the book and do the connect because it'll help tremendously for the tests. He is the reason I am gonna pass my HESI A&P.
Doc S is a tough instructor, but there is never a dull moment. Make sure he gets to know you. Participate and attend.
Dr.Sainvil cares for the people that take his class and he wants you to pass. His exams are a bit difficult so you have to read and study a lot, but it is totally possible to get an A. He also curved a lot of our grades at the end because he sees we were really trying. If you show the efforts and are not lazy, he will help you out.
He's funny and lighthearted, but if you're looking for an amazing lecture, look elsewhere. He spends 85% of the lecture talking about completely unrelated topics. His tests are challenging, but you will pass if you can teach yourself the material. He tells you which chapters are important for tests, but be prepared to study absolutely EVERYTHING
Professor Sainvil was not that bad, 13 quizzes all were non-proctored (5 exams were proctored though, 5th one is optional to replace a lower exam grade), 4 discussions, 4 homework assignments in auto grade system (gives 2 attempts). Overall, it was a smooth process, study hard for those exams though 100%.
professor sainvil was amazing! truly my favorite professor, he explained things in the textbook in a way that was easy for us to understand and remember. he gives extra credit which helps so much and he's even put quiz and tests dates for later when we asked. he's the best!
Gives the absolute worst lectures, if you like learning FROM the professor, do not take him. Tests are hard, but possible if you teach yourself everything and study daily. I would reccomend another professor to anyone looking to recieve the important info in class, where you have the ability to ask questions and recieve clear answers.
He's a great teacher makes sure each student understands before moving on! Never has a teacher who actually cares if you get it or not and breaks things down to make things simpler to understand.
He is a really funny guy and his lectures are amazing. students get extra 10 points on each exam if they complete the connect assignment. For example, if you got an 86 on the test and completed the connect your grade changes to a 96 on the test. you also have 5 test exams but test 5 is optional you can take it to replace your lowest test grade.
Professor Sainvil has a unique teaching style, but engaging with it can really pay off. His exams are challenging, so staying on top of the textbook and attending class are a must. Unstuckstudy AI was a lifesaver for me - definitely check it out!
This professor is great if you like to teach yourself and do not want a lot of homework. He gives 4 exams and a 5th optional exam to boost your grade. This professor is overall absent the entire course and responds rather rudely over email. He does NOT care about you. If you do not mind a lack of professor, this course was light and easy.
Great lectures, he makes funny jokes/references which kind of make the material stick imo. Wouldn't be a good online class, but as an in person one he is pretty good. 5 exams, one optional, no final/midterm, and hw is optional. The only non optional items are quizzes 10 pts each and exams 200 pts each.
This class is pretty hard honestly. the professor doesn't teach much either so if you don't mind teaching yourself everything then this class might be fit for you. The exams are based on powerpoint slides and the powerpoints are often 200+ slides and the exams have 80-100 questions each so be aware of that.
I had taken this professors online course for BSC2085 and though I never met him personally, he was always understanding. With each email I send, he responds within hours, and his class is not that hard. Just make sure you keep up with the work as there are specific due dates per module. I would recommend.
I was confused at first when I saw all the great ratings for the professor, but then I realized that most of those are for people who have taken him in person. However, I took him online. I do not recommend him one bit, unless you are okay with teaching yourself 100%. Has no lectures and everything is from the textbook. This class was hard!
Lectures are uploaded online so you can listen without attending class. Online tests only, but they are difficult.
I'm a 15 year old dual enrollment student who took this class with my high school APs and it's tough but manageable. Human anatomy overall is just a tough class and with Mr. Frantz being my teacher it was like sink or swim as he barley taught. Gives EC opportunities. If you're committed you'll pass if not then you will definitely fail.
Mid teacher, I took the 8 week course and realized that he spends 80% of the lectures talking about nonsense so you will be learning strictly from the textbook. Also, Connect assignments take hours. Even though they're extra credit you'll need them to get an A. Probably can find a better teacher.
I took him for Anatomy lecture and had him in person while everything was online but even with going over the slides in person it wasn't a good class. The powerpoints on each chapter are 200+ slides and each exam is based on 4 chapters each. You basically are teaching yourself. It's just a very difficult class overall. Do not recommend.
You are voluntarily setting yourself up for failure by taking this class with this prof. He speaks on alot of unrelated topics, very rude and does not provide reviews for exams. This is a difficult class and if the professor cannot provide structure, you will fail. I do not recommend at all.
A&P is already a hard course and honestly this prof didnt make it easier. Although he is entertaining he doesnt really teach anything. Its already a hard class and teaching yourself everything made it so much harder. He gives 200+ slides per chapter and doesnt specify whats gonna be on the exam which is ridiculous because exams are on 4 chapters.
I loved having Prof. Sainvil for BSC2086, I wish I had him for BSC2085! If you want to pass Anatomy, TAKE HIS CLASS. I took the online course, you have to really study for the exams but duh it's Anatomy. The tests aren't tricky like some teachers, if you take notes and study you'll do well. Studying flashcards on Quizlet is also really helpful!
He does not answer phone calls or emails. He reads off power points and his exams are difficult. You can't understand him because of his thick accent. Save your time and money. I had 6 points away from passing and he did not give them, he said better luck next time. He jokes a lot, sometimes they can be inappropriate.
I got withdrawn from the course for "non attendance" even though I completed pre-course work and syllabus quiz. Called and left MULTIPLE voicemails, emailed, begged to meet on zoom to resolve issue but heard nothing. HORRIBLE COMMUNICATION. Matter only got resolved once I got the dean involved and even then I heard nothing from him.
I recommend this teacher.
I wish I knew about him being a great professor before signing up for anatomy 2. He is very fair with curving some exams and he gives out a ton of extra credit. Any anatomy class you take is hard, so I still had study a lot but he always emphasizes he only asks questions on exams that you would really need to know in the medical field.
He is a good teacher, His online textbooks and resources go in depth and are very useful. He is an easy grader and curved some of my exams, however he would not respond to any of my emails, I had a family emergency and could not take one of the exams and he would not respond to any email, text, anything. Other than that it was okay.
He doesn't really have any respect for his students and takes zero responsibility or his actions. Makes inappropriate jokes the whole class, I sat in his class with headphones doing other work for all his classes. He has a super thick accent so it is really hard for some to understand. You also will have to pay out of pocket to take his tests.
Terrible teacher never answers his emails he sucks at grading pls don't take him if you want to have headaches take him then. He doesn't help! Office hours he is never there. He sucks at everything I don't like him. Never answers his calls please don't take him if you like stress.
DO NOT TAKE HIS ONLINE COURSE. He doesn't help. He didn't upload ANY of the review, materials, his videos are terrible and are him basically reading the textbook. Audio is hard to listen to. Does not prepare you at all for what is on these insane exams. I asked him for help and he told me to go to ASC, WHICH I WAS ALREADY DOING!!!
Do not take a class with Dr. Frantz!!!! On average, per class, we go through about 700 slides per day and during that time he is barely explaining the content and making jokes the whole time. In addition, he does not provide a study guide for all of the information given to us and will not help us in anyway possible. PLZ PLZ DON'T TAKE HIM!!!!!!!!!
Not the best at communicating via email, says quizzes are copyrighted and can't reopen them for you to review what you missed. A lot of things for his online anatomy class was not very clear.
