Great teacher. Really cares about students. I had to study my butt off, but I got an "A" so anyone with half a brain and a good attitude can. Make sure you read the material and do the work before class time. You will appreciate this class if you are a pre-med or pre-dent student.

I Agree with the earlier comment. I've done great in the class so far. Don't mouth off and think about your questions before you ask them and you'll be fine.

I like this class/Professor. However, for each chapter, she requires a (somewhat) extensive outline. This is a big pain if you are already familiar with the material. I.E. I took Biol 1010 and some of this stuff is review for me. It is so boring to write outlines of already learned materials.

this teacher and class is off the hizzo. She uses powerpoint which makes it easrier in some way to understand this subject

She tried to make sure people know what they needed to know, but her office hours were short and I couldn't talk to her during that time.

She is a good teacher who cares about her students. Her tests are very hard, but she does grade on a curve. I liked her teaching style, and she is clear and doesnt get off the subject very often.

Awesome teacher. Dr Ashworth is very smart and her lectures are interesting. Some trick questions on exams, so make sure you really know your stuff! I would definitely take a class from her again, she's great =)

I think Dr. Ashworth is a dang good teacher. She explains things very well. Her tests are hard, but if you study and put time into the class like you should be, then you will do fine.

Dr. Ashworth does a great job explaining things, but definitely not willing. She makes you feel like you are wasteing her time and can tend to make you feel like a bother when you ask questions. Her lectures are good, but her tests are terrible. If you do well with story problem type questions you will do wonderful.

Dr. Ashworth is a very good instructor. All her notes are on PowerPoint presentation and she is extremely thorough in her explainations. Her exams are VERY tough, but they are fair and passable. She will answer questions pertinant to the material and doesn't put up with B.S. in her classroom. Chapter summaries are tedious but a huge help!

Ashworth is awesome!! TAKE HER!

She is a great teacher, but the class is a doozie. Her tests are especially hard.

She is a nice teacher, but her tests and quizzes are incredibly hard. It's like she wants students to do bad, even though she says otherwise. She's a good teacher, just be prepared for spending every free minutes studying for this class.

She is a hard teacher. Sometimes quite entertaining. Tests are hard also. If she has made an error or doesn't know something, she willingly admits it. If you ask for help, she will do all she can. I enjoyed the class. If you get an "A" you certainly earned it!

What other teacher will type out all her notes and offer them to the students???? She was great, she always helped when needed, and I never read, rarely studied(just her notes) and nearly aced every test! I learned quite a bit and highly recommend her!

Her lecutures were awesome. I learned a lot just from going to class. Her tests are very difficult, but doable. I went to her office after each test and went through all the questions, it helped me get used to her style of questions, and helped me see how I could approach her test more effectively. Work hard and you will do fine.

This is by far one of my favorite professors ever. Lots of fun, very helpful and fair. She is very clear about what is important to know, and actually teaches USEFUL INFORMATION. Just pay attention and do what she says and you should be fine. Most importantly: DO WHAT SHE SAYS. She doesn't lie about what she's going to do!

Ashworth is a great teacher. She cares about students understanding Physiology and is willing to work with students on passing her class. She is one of the best teachers I have had and I would recommend her to anyone. Her lectures are very interesting and applicable.

She is incrediblly hard. STUDY her notes STUDY the text. STUDY your lecture notes. Tape her lectures and STUDY them. Talk to her privately. STUDY STUDY STUDY She does not give A's or B's I studied 3-6 hours a day I could not get above 78% on anything. She does not use the text she has her own agenda. She tests far above the level of the text.

g8 teacher! i took her in a block; she makes it relatable/understandable... i luvd her sense of humor & how she fits bio into life- I HATE BIO/SCIENCE, & she made it bearable! U need the book, only gives u 1 assignment w/ quizzes here & there; 4 tests/a final & u drop lowest test score + always xtra points! luv her! & to be honest, I'm a slacker

She made physiology really fun and interesting. She was always willing to help if you visited her in the office. The only thing I didn't like was the soap boxes she went off on. She spent half of every class period talking about current issues of the world. She liked to lecture us on what we should do with our lives.

She is an amazing teacher! everything she goes over in class is on the test. Also she provides you with typed notes. If you follow the notes and come to class you will do great. I bought a voice recorder and just listen to her lectures. it has done miracles for me!!! this is a hard class so make sure to dedicate lots of time

She is a tough professor. She really knows the subject. This class was fun but hard. She profides you with her notes which help a ton. This class requires alot of time.

It's a tough course. There is a LOT of work each chapter, and you really need to understand rather than memorize in order to succeed. If she didn't give me so much work to do each chapter, I really wouldn't understand what I was being taught, so it was beneficial. It's tough, take this during a semester when you have a light load.

Come on people, this class is not hard at all. If you think it was hard, take a real class like anatomy, or physiology. This is college, not high school. I took this class last semester, so easy. Do the assignments and a little studying and you will do well on the tests. She does not try to trick you on the tests, so consider yourself lucky.

I had to attend every class because of pop quizzes, study for probably 8+ hours a week and her tests were very hard. She's a great teacher, but too smart to teach general biology. You have to work really hard at this class to get an A. Most my class (probably more than 40 people) agree, she's too difficult. Take diff. bio if you want an easy A.

Physiology is a very hard class, but Dr Ashworth was very willing to help and WANTED all her students to do well. It was a ton of studying, but she was a great teacher and made it doable! She throws in a sweet curve too :)

This is a pretty hard class. If you are going to take it, take honors because it is not that much more work and it spreads out the points more so that you can get a good grade. Dr Ashworth is willing to help and cares about her students. She also curves her test which helps

Great teacher!!! She truly cares about her students and wants them to succeed. However, that doesn't mean that you don't have to work hard. Go to class, read the material, do the study guide, study for a billion hours and you'll get a great grade.

Nice and very helpful and is very clear what is going to be on the quizzes and tests.

Teacher explains that class will be hard at the beginning of the semester and is willing to work with students. I have had more than one experience with her though that makes me think that if someone is doing well in her class, she thinks they are cheating.

She changed her whole teaching method this year compared to previous years and IT HAS WORKED! She is very willing to help you. yes you will need the book and other materials and is somewhat time consuming but so worth it. I have learned so much from her. I highly recommend her to any student who wants to learn. She is easy to pass, just do the work

Class is very helpful. She will help explain things in ways that make you derive the answer and think. There are many assignments, reading and lecture quizzes via mastering. POGIL packets every class as attendance. You will spend a lot on her materials for a general ed class. The tests will surprise you how easy it is. Just make out of class effprt

Ashworth is a very good teacher, and makes it clear on how to do well in her class. You can purchase an outline for her notes at the bookstore, and she also made a study-guide book which is an excellent prep for her tests. However, this class is still hard. Expect to study a lot and the book is a must-have.

She explains things well but she doesn't lecture much. Mostly you'll be doing packets with a set group every class. Tests are HARD. I would study for my tests 2 weeks in advance and would still be blind sided. Everything you need is in the textbook. READ! Online homework every couple of days. I would take again.

This class was very group heavy, she doesn't like to lecture a lot which I liked. She is silly and can treat you like a child at times. I thought the content was difficult, but her teaching method helped me pass

It can be difficult, of course. But you're not alone, everyone else has to do it too. Listen, take notes, watch online videos, go to test review sessions. The help is there. Take advantage of it. Don't be lame like others who've given poor reviews. She's really chill and smart. Lots of group work-which isn't as awful as you think.

Good and organized class. You do lots of homework and quizzes but it really prepares you for your final exam which was way easier than the tests. Group work is not as productive but keeps you busy.a

Ashworth uses Pogil packets for most of the time, but she has you work in groups for every packet, so if you like group work, you'll love the class. The tests take questions from the Learning Outcomes. AND she totally cares about her students - I learned how to actually survive college in her class and would definitely recommend her as a freshman.

Dr Ashworth has a style of teaching that I love. She doesn't like to lecture. She gives a brief overview of the material, then we do POGIL packets as groups. The packets, along with collective group thinking help us learn, and we remember the material easier. She guides us in the right direction instead of just lecturing. Tests are ok if you study.

Dr. Ashworth, or Coach as she likes to be called, is one of the best teachers I've had. I'm no good at science or math but the way that she helped us learn, I passed the class with an A. She lectures for tops maybe 15 minutes and then in groups you work on worksheets to help you master the material. This class is well worth your time. Work hard!

Pretty much everyday in class there was almost no lecture, you do the pogil packet assignments with a group of people. Those are helpful for the tests and the TA's and Professor Ashworth walk around the room helping groups and answering questions. She is hilarious and her lectures are very put together and easy to follow. Really good class.

I loved taking coaches class. She is very intimidating but you grow to love and respect her. she puts you in groups and gives you packets to work on everyday. You learn a lot more by doing that than lectures. If you have a bad group then youre kinda screwed. But overall, loved taking this class and getting to know coach

Super great teacher! I adore her and would take physiology from her. She is pretty strict about her grading but it's not overbearing. She does weekly short quizzes instead of large exams, which makes it so much easier when it comes to studying.

She was AMAZING! So caring of students and has the passion to help! The class isn't easy, you'll have to work for your grade but she sets up great study groups that can save you! Would definately recommend if you like to be personable, get additional help, and feel respected/valued!

The professor uses an engaging POGIL approach, making the class enjoyable despite the challenging content. Study tools like Unstuckstudy, along with the helpful group work, make this a worthy recommendation.
