Dr. Sinner is awesome. I would recommend him to anyone. However, if you ain't book-smart, don't try taking any classes he teaches because it's hard stuff!

Dr. Sinner is a great teacher. He works some goofy stuff into his lectures without diverting from the topic, and that's definitely helpful in relieving some of the stress there is in anatomy and physiology. The material is challenging, but he's always willing to help and is very fair with all of his students. I would definitely recommend him.

Dr. Sinner made the class interesting and easier to understand. However, do not expect to get good grades if you don't put in the effort. You definitely need to study for this class but he's always there to help when needed. It's obvious he cares if his students get good grades or not. I would recommend him to anyone interested in this class.

study study study hard

Dr. Sinner is an excellent instructor. His knowledge on the subject matter in human anatomy & physiology combined with clinical experience translates into an excellent teaching style. BIO 202 is extensive & difficult to retain; he presents the course in a manner that is digestable & emphasizes understanding systems in overall clinical picture.

teacher knows his material.

He is extremely helpful so if you have any questions ASK!!! Great sense of humor. Offers extra credit points on quizes etc.

Dr. Sinner was an amazing professor. He very helpful you just have to ask for it. His tests were fair just make sure to read them carefully. As long as you have determination and dedication to truly know the material there's no reason you shouldn't do fine. Don't go in expecting to be handed anything YOU have to work for it. HIGHLY recommend

This is a great teacher.He is clear with the info and narrows it down to what you really need to know.There is no book,he uses note packets with grouped info for each section you study.It is a lot of information,and you must attend class everyday,as well as study outside of class almost everyday,if you want an A.Tests are hard,be prepared.

He is very helpful and knows his stuff. I deffinately recommend taking him. His note packets get down to the point and he teaches you what you need to know.

Easy to understand and made the class fun. Gave extra credit and was easy to approach with any questions.

Great professor! Very clear about what to study. Kept things lighthearted by his corny jokes. He was funny and HOT! He truly cared that his students understood what they were there to learn. I would recommend him to anyone.

took this as a summer class. LOTS of info but made it easy to understand and incorporated some fun extra credit games into the class. go to class and pay attention and you should do fine

Dr. Sinner is a good instructor. He keeps the class alive with his jokes. You must be ready to take a 10pt. quiz every class. There are really no other assignments that make up your grade except quizzes and exams. He doesn't do much explanation other than what's on the powerpoint he uses.

This is a very challenging but rewarding course. Sinner makes it easy to understand and comprehend the intense material. I would take all of his classes that he has offered because he makes the class worthwhile!!! I loved it!

This class has a load of information so its rather fast paced but thats expected. He gives you a note packet the follows the powerpoint which is nice. He answers every question, we have a student that asks a ton of questions and he takes them all in stride. He slants the info to the clinical side of things. Love him/class but be prepared to work!

This class covers a lot of material in a short amount of time. In order to keep up you must study daily. Dr. Sinner is very helpful if you ask him for the help. The class is big, therefore if you do not ask for help it will be easy for him not to notice you are in need and its our responsibility as students to speak up.

Dr Sinner is genuinely dedicated to teaching & very resourceful. He draws real life parallels to help students understand the material. In spite of previous posts, I've never in all of my education had an instructor take so many ?s yet keep up w/ the pace of the class in such stride. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Sinner & the class:-

This guy is a great teacher. Anatomy is a tough course no matter who your professor is but Sinner makes the course fun. He is very approachable and allows questions. If you have to take A&P, whether you take it with Sinner or some other professor, you need to ask questions and get answers. You will always get answers with Sinner.

I made sure I got Dr. Sinner for Bio 202 after my great experience with him in Bio 201. He makes the subject matter interesting and relevant, makes time for students during office hours, by phone, and by email. Anatomy & Physiology is tough, but Dr. Sinner's great sense of humor and knowledge will help you, as long as you put forth time and effort.

I really enjoyed Dr. Sinner's class! He is easy going, funny, explains material clearly, answers questions and is available outside of class. He has high expectations for you but he works to help you achieve them and is very fair. The class is hard and requires lots of studying (it is 200 level class) but I highly recommend this fantastic teacher!

I took this course over 6 weeks during a summer a few yrs back. During that time I was highly frustrated & felt there should be a little bit more flexibility. I recently graduated from ASUs nursing program & have thanked Dr. Sinner since. His class was highly challenging & really prepared me for my program. Thank U Dr. Sinner :)

Took this back in '08 and never rated Dr. Sinner. I have since graduated with my BSN and I am really happy I had him! At the time I found the class to be quite difficult but since then I have been so much better off than most of my peers in the nursing program. I seemed to have had a better grasp of/and method for dealing with the material. Thank U

Dr. Sinners class was very challenging but if you have taken any anatomy class you know that any class you take you will need to study majorly. Dr. Sinner made this class very fun and actually made me want to come to class. I would highly recommend anyone to take this class if they want to learn in a fun environment.

Sinner is a great instructor who is very knowledgeable about anatomy. He is going to make you work, hard. But in the end you leave knowing a lot! Makes class interesting by telling jokes and funny stories too!

I took Sinner for both 201 and 202. This is a pretty hard class so lots of studying was required. His fill-in-the-blank note packets weren't my favorite, but I managed to make it work for me. If you are a hard working student willing to put in the effort, he will go out of his way to help you. Otherwise, you are on your own. I highly recommend him!

If you study HARD, you will do well. Sinner is a riot! He makes going to class fun. Don't take too many classes with this one- it requires A LOT of study time. He records his lectures- listen to them carefully for anything you might have missed. He makes himself available for questions. I can't understand bad posts. I recommend him- he's AWESOME!

Take this class at a time in your life where you are willing to focus and apply yourself, and you will love the class and Dr. Sinner. If you are engaged during each class, and spend enough time with the material every damn day, you will find that Dr. Sinner is an outstanding mentor and goes above and beyond to support your education.

A&P is a detailed and complex subject, and requires your daily focus and effort. If you are engaged during each class and spend time working on the material daily,you will find fluency with the material and have more fun with it. Dr. Sinner goes above and beyond to support the education of serious students. Super responsive to discussion/inquiry.

Don't know Y students would complain about this teacher -.-'(I was hesitant).In reality, he is great! His teaching makes everything more easier to memorize! It's mainly from lazy students I bet.This is a college course; you can't get away with not studying.I highly recommend printing out the practice practicals in color & use them like flash-cards.

I'm the kind of person that isn't naturally smart so I automatically have to study 3 times as hard but this class makes you study 3 times as hard even if you are naturally smart..I just couldn't keep up. Sinner is a great teacher, he just doesn't want boneheads passing and being in hospitals. He has a good point. Great guy.

Great instructor! Had 201 with different instructor I thought was good but I learned so much more with Sinner. He expects you to apply yourself and these classes are not easy but he is funny, patient, answers questions and is hot as hell!! He says crazy stuff every so often to help hold your attention that is hilarious.

Sinner is a great LABteacher! Rarely used the map atlas guide;love his recordings of CT&Cross sections on canvas, I just watched them over&over. It's crazy that the department expects us to know over 100+ parts, and gives us a few seconds to each test station without letting us go back afterwards.All-in-all..Sinner is funny & I recommend him. :)

Dr. sinner deserves a "best edutainerner of the year" award. He is so dang funny! It really helps because his jokes bring your attention right back and you relax. It's very rewarding to do well in this class. Sometimes id be listening to videos at coffee shops and bust up laughing. Erudition required. Exposure + exposure + exposure =success

He is more thorough than most others; he does this so students are prepared for other classes. The amount of information is a little intimidating, but worth the extra studying. He is an excellent teacher and enjoys interacting with his students. He may seem cold at first but is a blast once you get to know him. Not for the easily offended.

Great teacher! This is the hardest class I have ever taken. Yes it's an overwhelming amount of material (I found myself crying some nights) but Sinner really prepares you for your career. You don't get study guides for any test, you have a quiz a week, and you take notes every lecture. You are forced to study. You receive the grade you earn.

I previously posted for this teacher (12/2010, very pleased that I took his course. Now that I am weeks away from graduating with my BSN, I must say that I have often reflected back to his class. Some of his analogies have stuck with me and helped me apply the knowledge to nursing. Likewise, the way he tests preps you for NCLEX style of testing.

There are 3 types of teachers in this universe. A 1st rate teacher who is very hard very intolerant of the mistakes of students, and he gives crushing blows on every step. A 2nd rate teacher who just reminds a person of his mistakes and a 3rd rate teacher who just pleases him. The harder the teacher is, the better one can learn.

He make you work. I resisted it initially but once I realized the class wasn't going to get any easier and I started asking questions and studying each night it really wasn't that hard. He always took the time to answer my questions. I learned a TON, which I honestly can't say for 201 (different instructor). Tough class but he made it cool.

Highly recommend! Always had open dialogue with us, was always willing to meet with me and all the info for tests was in the notes (he does re-word things on tests but not a prob if you understand it). He is funny and I do think cares a lot. Truthfully lazy/immature/entitled students should go elsewhere. His tgh love/real world approach won't mesh.

Dr. Sinner knows his stuff. He is always helpful, wants students to learn. It is obvious that a few people will struggle but he refuses to pass those who can't grasp the material. Future nurses need to know this material. I don't blame him for being tough. I recommend you sit in the front row as he is also nice to look at.

I had Dr. S this past semester for 201. I loved him. He'not easy. I'm a CNA and several of our nurses had him. They told me how well he prepared them. Looking back, most think they were just being lazy and if they would have worked as hard in his class as they did in nursing school it would have been easy. I found out I got out what I put in.

Dr. Sinner is a great instructor, he's a very tough grader but I don't blame him we must know our stuff if we are getting into the medical field. I missed two quizzes and they really hurt my grade. I'm taking him for Bio 202 this time more prepared and will also make sure I don't make the same mistakes. I strongly recommend him! Funny as hell too

He is straight forward. His material is laid out in a note packet for each exam. During lectures you will listen and fill in the notes as he goes through them. Don't just memorize material actually understand it. He gives you the tools to do well, it is up to you if you want to put the work in.

Prepares you for next level!!!

He expcts you to learn material and doesn't give out freebies. A former stdnt came in who was finishing up her nursing degree. She raved about him and how he prepared her for the prgrm. Made me realize he isn't as hard as everyone else to this point had been to easy. I'm proud of how hard I've wrked, how mch I've learned and know I'm btter off now.

Take this class if you want to really learn anatomy and physiology. Had Sinner for 201 and 202. Loved his class so much in 201 I had to take him again! The class was probably one of the hardest Ive had but you get the grade you earn and it really prepares you. Expect the class to take up a lot of your time.

I took him for Bio 202 for lab. And it was amazing. The labs assignments was done in class and later on that week he gives the lab quizzes online with multiple attempts, you keep your highest score. The lab practical test on the cadavers is easy. Its all about memorization. Just practice them on canvas too or stay extra time after class :)

The book is a free online book which was nice but I wasn't crazy about it. The lecture videos at times were confusing and appeared to be done by someone other than him. The really nice thing was he was very responsive to get back to me when I had questions and he graded things quickly as well. He made me feel like I wasn't just on my own. RECOMMEND

Lots of videos! Videos, written assignment, and proctored quiz each week, plus lab exams and other assignments. Good professor, funny, answers questions, throws in some fun learning activities.

It's A LOT of material; hard to do well if you don't study. Complaints about pathologies: they're on the objectives sheet, always. In-person format, but his lectures are also posted online. I rewatched them at 2x's speed ahead of lecture to take initial notes, and again after lecture for review. Best professor for health professions students.

If you want to learn anatomy and physiology, you will learn it here. It is a difficult class because it is a difficult subject. I did have to go to go tutoring and also watch many YouTube videos. He explains everything well but as mentioned it is a fast paced class. It was stressful & challenging but I def learned ALOT. Only failed one exam as ref.

Challenging subject! 201 is challenging. He did well explaining the material. You can rewatch his lectures online. You MUST study everyday for this class. I went to tutoring once a week. You have to understand the material to do well on exams. Its challenging but very rewarding passing his class!

Out of the A&P instructors at Phoenix college, I feel that Dr. Sinner is the most capable of giving those who are entering the medical field a well rounded and applicable education on the course material. He is challenging! More challenging than my 202 professor, for sure. His lectures online SAVED my grade in the class. You will work HARD!

Either you like him or you don't depending on your learning style. I think that he prepares us to use our time wisely and to dive into a subject if we want to get the most out of it. The best approach is to pre-fill out his lecture packet before class, and then absorb the material in class. This allows you to ask questions to gain understanding.

If you want a class that doesn't give you a ton of work then I would highly recommend. On the other hand you absolutely NEED to study! All of your grades are from quizzes and exams. He does give bonus questions on quizzes. He also answers any questions during lecture and lab. I would definitely recommend, but the course is difficult.

One of the best teachers. Grades things on time so you have time to look over what questions you got wrong and work on them prior to the next class/ exam. It's an extremely big help when you can tell the professor puts in as much effort as their students.
