Knows his stuff. Not an easy class but you learn.

The best teacher for biology! Sometimes quiz questions and test questions will through you off guard cause you had to be in class to learn it. Goofy guy with lots of good, cheesy explainations (what else from a guy who spent a decade studing fruitflys)

Big Daddy Jim. The greatest Biology Professor at UVSC. Test questions do throw you off sometimes, and you can't just study the study guides and expect to know it all. Do your work and go to class!!! But he's great! Great sense of humor as well!

Good teacher overall. Was probably the hardest class I have ever taken. I learned a lot though.

Incredibly kind man. Tries to be funny, even though he is not, but it is charming nontheless. Truly cares about his students. Best teacher i have ever had.

Dr. Price is an awesome teacher. I would recommend him to anyone. To succeed in his class you need to be in class everyday. He explains everything with a story to help you rememeber. He's a great guy that wants everyone to succeed if you are in class and trying.

He made me love biology.

He could be kind of boring, but the class discussions were awesome. He makes sure you understand how to work the problems. Tests were moderately difficult. I loved the class though!

I thought he was very fun and a very good teacher. Genetics is hard and difficult to understand but you can't blame him for it. We had some great class discussions and he was very willing to answer all our questions. I really enjoyed him and would highly recommend him for Biology or Genetics.

This man is very BRILLIANT! So brillant that half the time I do not understand what he is saying. He tries to trick you on the tests!! However, the quizes are easy and you get to work on them with other people. This is a tuff class, but I know it can be passed, even if it is done with a C grade.

Dr. Price is pretty boring, but if you read the book you can do alright on the tests. he is very concerned about helping people with their grades as long as you put forth some effort in the class. He's a nice guy.

He is not a hard professor. This is college people! His class was one of the easiest upper division classes I've taken. He doesn't require a whole lot from the students, and his exams are pretty easy. I'm not an A student, but have done extremely well (A) in his class. Don't believe the rumors that Genetics is hard, they're false!

This class is a lot easier that people say it is, and he is a not boring like a lot of the people say he is too. The tests that he gives are really easy. As long as you go to class and pay attention you will do just fine.

Pretty easy, just really boring sometimes hard to follow in class because its hard to not fall asleep. He's pretty helpful though and if you're confused he'll go through it again to try and help you. Get three chances on a quiz and with a good excuse he'll let you do it more. really not bad

Class isnt that hard if you do your homework assignments (there arent that many) and come to class.

I can't believe all the negative feedback for price. He is well organized and goes out of his way to offer practice problems from multiple sources (which is what he puts on the exam almost word for word). I loved this class. Go to class and just listen. Then do the practice problems and read the book if you don't get it. Excellent professor!

Price is a great professor. He'll go out of his way to help students do well and understand the material if they take the time to ask for help.

Before, during,and after attending his class almost everyone I meet has dislicked professor Price or the way he teaches. He seems to ask questions too quickly as though it is simple and you should get it, this often leaves people feeling stupid, he also gets extremely emoutional and angry if you ever ask for the class to be easier. could be better

Price is not as bad as everyone says. If you pay attention, do the problem sets and practice problems you will do fine. My only complaint is he expects you to be able to do the test problems as fast as he can, which means in-class tests can be very frustrating, having more time in the testing center would have been nice.

If you attend class, do all the problems he does in class and the recommended problems he gives you, this class is NOT bad at all. Yes taking the test for 50 minutes is harder but if you can do the practice problems its doable. Price was always willing to meet and help me with whatever issues I had. He is very knowledgeable about the subject.

I took this class twice, the first time receiving a C-. The second time, I actually put in the effort and came to appreciate how knowledgeable and helpful he really is. If you do the problem sets and practice problems (to which he provides free links on canvas) you will do well. Very generous and friendly if you are respectful and responsible.

Dr Price is a very nice teacher who genuinely cares about his students. He grades fairly, and there are only 7 assignments and 3 exams in the semester. However, he is likely to get frustrated with the class if they don't participate in the lectures. He wants feedback about whether you understand, and the concepts are hard, so make sure you ask q's!

I'm only at UVU for the summer so I don't know how easy the classes are supposed to be but it seemed normal for university level. I think despite being a university now, UVU will still accept anybody, prepared for real classes or not, probably why all the negative reviews. I didn't do that well in the class from health issues but Price was fair.

Great professor, loves what he teaches, wants the best for his students, and wants them to succeed. Do the homework, take notes and you'll do good

I had a great experience with Price. Listen to the lectures, take notes and study and you'll do well. Biol1010 can be difficult for many, but I felt that Price wanted his students to succeed. He was willing to give me feedback when I didn't do as well on certain assignment.

I LOVED Dr. Price. He is intelligent and respectful, and you can tell that he is really passionate about what he is teaching. He invites questions and is nice about the silly ones and tries to give good answers. We once spent an entire class period talking about if Jurassic park is possible. I highly recommend this professor and the genetics class.

I was skeptical to take Dr. Price for Genetics and Genetics Lab. However, it was a great experience. He is super caring, knowledgeable, and passionate about what he teaches. If you go to lectures you will excel in his class. The homework is online and not hard, the tests are tricky but have lots of time to take and open-note. Go to class to excel!

Professor Price was awesome! His material was difficult but he was very understanding and helpful when his students needed it. He did not have a textbook, which made the more difficult topics hard to understand outside of class since you kind of had to teach yourself, but Price was always willing to spend time helping if the need was expressed.

I was confused for most of the semester, but I felt like I didn't learn anything and had to get help from other students most of the time. You can pass the class, but it'll be hard unless you aren't listening or getting help from other students that know what they're doing.
