He is cool guy, but his class is extremely difficult. If you have no knowledge of molecular biology before taking his class, you can not understand his lecture. He also has approximately 70 ppt slides for each chapter, and you better off reading the text book.

This is one of the worst professor i have ever had in my entire life. He does not know how to explain the topic at all. I get so scared asking him a question in class because he will ramble on and on and eventually lose his train of tought. He talks about his girlfriend in class a lot. Who cares about who you date, i just want to learn Anatomy.

He is a good professor. However do not take in summer unless you already know the subject. Pay attention when he discusses anything w/steps in it you will be texted on it. Find some type of study guide online he does not provide one. Study his notes but you must find other resources to clarify. All and all he is a solid instructor.

Mr. Gebler is a real great teacher if you do your part. I took him for A&P I and as of right now I only need a 57 on my next test to get an A in the class. His grades are all tests, which can be good or bad, but he gives out study guides for lecture exams and goes over them in class. He's also very lenient and interactive in terms of learning labs

Secondly, he gives lots of extra credit and tries to explain everything in a reasonable manner and then allows use to use the models to study. Work outside of class is crucial to keep an A.

Dr. G. Is AWESOME! Yes, micro is A LOT OF WORK! However, Professor Gebler gives students a lot of tools and his lectures are always fun and interesting. He is willing to meet with you to help with concepts you don't know. Give him a chance. I think some of the negative ratings didn't participate or expected to breeze through with minimal work.

Professor Glenn Gebler provided the most amazing Microbiology teachings and experience throughout the summer semester. Each lesson and section was taught so well and clearly. I am really thankful for taking Microbiology with Professor Gebler. Also, Professor Gebler was so helpful and supportive with us, and we learned so much of Microbiology.

This course requires commitment and diligent study. The professor made my efforts of commitment and study all the more fruitful by providing clear communication of content and guidelines on how to successfully study. I learned a lot of valuable information well and had a great time learning it. Thank you so much!

Dr.G is amazing! I am glad that I took him for Microbiology this summer (5 week). He is a gr8 professor and cares about our success and learning the material. He gave us analogies to help us understand and always gave plenty of EC. There was a lot of material, however it was all relevant information. I would love to be in his class again. Take him!

I learned a lot in this courses. Professor Gebler loves microbiology and it shows! He uses a lot of every day situations to explain concepts. No science instructor is an easy A. But Dr. G. gives lots of time and tools. He is laid back and respectful. I would not hesitate to take him again.

I love Dr. Gebler's lectures are outstanding. He gives you tools others don't have. His micro class helped me get into and do better in my nursing program. Most of what Dr. G. taught us in micro was in pathophysiology (nursing school class). Don't listen to the complainers. They wanted something for nothing. Study and you will be glad you took him!

His assignments are due at random times; some are due at 5 PM, others at 6 PM, 8 PM, or even 10 PM. They can be due on any day of the week, which makes it very disorganized. The teacher makes it difficult for students to create or maintain a schedule for assignments. He is a terrible teacher who doesn't care about his students' progress.

He's very kind! This is an online course, so I expect things to be easier, but I would take this class in person. He doesn't respond to emails, and the office hours are just a free-for-all all. Prepare to figure things out on your own because he will not be there to help or support you. Watch the lectures and review the PowerPoint.

He was a friendly, kind, and involved teacher. He often related the lesson to his daily life, giving half of the class time to talk about his personal life, or political views. The only reason why I wouldn't take his class again is because more than half of what the exam would be asking wouldn't be on the student guide he provided to us.

Professor Gebler is so kind. Although, his class, not so much. The study guides and other resources he provides do not help you perform well on the exams. The lab quizzes are take home, fairly easy. At the end of the semester, he drops the 4 lowest quiz scores and provided a lot of extra credit. Lectures are boring, often personal. Not recommended.

Professor Gebler was one of the most passionate instructors this semester. He knew a lot about the given subject. However, he often incorporated his family and political issues into lectures. Additionally, his exams require deep knowledge of all the slides, and the study guides WERE NOT helpful. He's caring but not someone I'd take again.

Professor Gebler is amazing; he cares a lot about his students be successful. I took Micro 2010 online class in Falls 2024. Even though it was online he meets every Tuesday and Thursday via zoom to answer questions and explained details of the course materials. He gives extra credit; very conscientious grader; do all assign given. 100% the best.

This professor shows that he cares, but the material is so much and microbiology is a heavy course. I would not recommend taking it with him just because his presentations are very hard to understand. Lecture is a struggle, but lab is fine. I would recommend taking it with a different professor who is more put together overall he's not bad.

He does give extra credit lecture exams are very hard. He does have two practical, and you have to memorize a lot of content. This class is all about memorization get ready to study.

He's just horrible; he talks more about his family than the lecture notes. He's so passive-aggressive and doesn't like it when you go into debt by asking questions. He doesn't update the study guide, which I find very alarming, because what is the point of a study guide if nothing from the exams comes from it?

He does not cater his class to a summer course. He is bipolar and gets upset easily if you ask too many questions. DON NOT TAKE HIM I WARNED YOU.

I gave this professor a chance despite his reviews and he proved those reviews RIGHT. I have cried multiple times for this course. He also claims he is better than his other professors meaning all of them combined are just bad, especially if he was the standard. Before you take any of his exams, may sure you pray and fast.

Microbiology is a TOUGH class in general. His lectures are hard to understand and INFO HEAVY. Labs are chill but still a lot of info. His study guides aren't that helpful but he DOES give some spoilers on what's in the exam every now and then. He tends to incorporate politics and family matters in class which takes class time.

Dr. Glenn is not the problem, microbiology is generally a very tough course and I took it during sum2025. I have never been so stretched in a while like in this class. So do not take microbiology as an accelerated course. I had an A by reading the slides atleast 3times before an exam. You will also need to pray that your mixunknown comes up.

If you take this class, be prepared to teach yourself for lecture. He teaches lab well and gives many tools for success. However, he goes on tangents in lecture, sometimes rushing through concepts. He is unreachable outside of class and there are often mistakes/misinformation on his slides and quizzes so double check the info yourself.

I got a D in this due to my poor effort. This man is so kind!! When I was sick and missed the week leading up to an exam, he exempted me from our exam. If I had trouble at home, he would give me homework extensions. He was so sweet, easy to work with, and very engaging. His lectures could be a little unclear at times, but easy to catch up on.
