I had Jason last semester for BIO 105 and he was new here so at the start it was a little rough but once he settled in things got so much better. His exams are fair and the study guides/reviews are so helpful!!!!! He's really also helpful/approachable outside of class if you have any questions or are struggling.

Dr. Freund is very chill. Hes always willing to meet if you need help, learns your name after just one time of hearing it, and grades things super fast. Ive heard some horror stories of bad Bio105 professors so Im glad, I had Dr. Freund.

Jason is very nice and funny in lectures. His lectures span the entire class period and he tends to go through the slides rather quick. Make sure to ask questions.

I think this class is a tough one to teach. I don't think that this rating is too accurate. Freund is clearly really passionate about biology (fish in particular) and is really funny. The class covers a lot of material, so you are going to have to study. But if you put the time in, you will be fine.

Jason provided the materials and resources for the exams like extra practice sheets and a slideshow with the most important information. He didn't do a lot outside of class, but if you reached out to him he would answer any questions. The lectures weren't boring or horrible, but they weren't amazing. Easy if you study and put in the work. GO2TUTOR!

Dr. Freund is a solid choice for an ecology professor. Yes, he does mention fish every once in a while (counted 13 lectures in a row was his best streak of mentioning fish), BUT I will say that I enjoyed that he was trying to make lecture entertaining. 4 exams, and online quizzes every once in a while. SimuText is another item you have to buy.

Jason is a nice guy that seems to genuinely care about his students. He tries to make sure that everyone understands the material and is generally a helpful person.

Dr. Freud is a funny guy that does his best to keep his lectures interesting. I said yes on textbook use even though it isn't required. If you at least skim the chapter that is listed on the syllabus it makes the class pretty easy. If you do start to struggle, he is very understanding and easy to meet up with outside of class.

This class consists of a ton of quizzes, and outside assignments. Although all the extra work pays off because it majorly helps your grade. His lectures do not prepare you well for the exams, but the exams are not that hard. There are also in class points just for showing up sometimes. I highly recommend him for Ecology!

For capstone, he was super chill. He didn't want to be there as much as students, so he made class super fast and was a very relaxed grader for the final presentation and paper. There was also extra credit offered based on how you did on a survey. We also finished class a month early, so that was really nice too.

I had Freund for Bio105 and thought the semester went fine. He definitely isn't the best professor but if you show up to class you can get points that help your grade. There are lots of little assignments to turn in that are graded by completion so make sure you do them. As long as you study for the exams you should be able to pass.

I wouldn't call Jason my favorite professor but he's decent and will work with you outside of class. He gives you exam wrappers to gain points back on exams and gives you multiple attempts on quizzes to pass. His lectures go fast and can get boring but overall he's a pretty good professor.

Hes nice and tries to be very personable. Hes totally willing to help you out if you ask. The tests focus a lot on application. Quick to respond to emails. The lectures are boring. If you took AP Bio itll be a breeze. A lot of mini assignments that arent worth a ton of points, but they help to buffer test scores.

He's a really good professor and loves what he teaches. His tests aren't too bad, you just have to study and put the time in. He's a very nice and helpful man if you ask for help or go to his office hours. He also gives quite a few extra credit options whether it's exam points back or just for being in attendance. Make sure you go to class.

Bio105 is a hard class for anyone who is taking it as a GenEd. However, compared to other bio professors he is caring and provides tons of opportunities to get your grade up and earn extra points on the test. To earn a good grade focus on learning the objectives and complete all the easy point assignments he gives! Loved his class.

BIO 105 is a difficult class and while his lectures can bare on Jason really cares about the student and is always willing to help during office hours. Class is graded on few things but he gives chances to earn many points back that other teachers don't! Was very funny and would take again in a second!

Professor Freund is by far one of my favorites! Taking bio 105 as a freshmen for a gen ed is difficult, but he wanted us to do well! His test can be tough if you don't actually try to study. He always gives 3 points of extra credit back if you simply go over your test to see what you did wrong! He also post review guides which is soooo nice.

Professor Freund obviously was passionate about what he taught, and the lectures were interesting and easy to understand. Very minimal amount of homework, and tests weren't very difficult. Offered extra credit on tests afterwards. If you took AP Bio, this class will be incredibly easy, as it pretty much teaches the exact same material

Dr.Freund was very friendly, very knowledgeable, gave points back on tests if attended office hours, and offered extended and more frequent office hours as the semester went on. Compared to what my friends profs were like, I would highly recommend Jason as he is not only very fun and silly, but he also tells you what the short answer q's for tests.

Jason really cares about you as a student and you will get out of it what you put into it. Group projects were a pain but he doesn't have bad partners and won't break your grade. He gives practice exams to study with and if you use them then the exams aren't to bad.

BIO105 is difficult regardless of professor, but Jason makes things make sense. He puts emphasis on the bigger picture and how everything connects - something that was extremely useful. He also allows you to get 3 points back on every exam as long as you see him at Office Hours. He makes a difficult class a bit more manageable.

Dudes a nice guy but the class is just hard. All BIO105 classes are hard and it doesn't matter really what professor you take. 4 Exams throughout the year and Lab has you right a paper for the class. It's a whole lot of lecture and then you just have to throw that information back on the tests. Gives a lot of resources though to help study + EC.

BIO 105 is a hard class. Jason did a great job explaining important info in lecture. Basically told us what the short answer questions on each exam. 3 unit exams and 1 final unit exam w/ comprehensive part. Gives 3 points back on every exam for going to office hours. Has many extra credit opportunities. Wants students to know material and succeed.

Hard class in general. Does expect you to have previous knowledge. Offers extra credit for every exam by simply going to his office hours and looking at what you got wrong on the test. Basically tells you what the short answer questions are going to be before the exam. Nice person in general.

Dr. Freund is an overall good professor, he has a lot of office hours available to go over the lab notebook or the major paper. He also hints at what will be on the lab exams. Study as if the lab exams are like lecture exams and you will do fine.

I had Professor Freund for BIO100. You are expected to learn the material before coming to class, and the new material is discussed in groups within the class period. He is easily accessable and all in-class work is graded. Participation matters, but the in-class work makes up a good portion of your final grade. Show up to class and you'll be fine.

Dr. Freund is a good professor. Quizzes are online, and you can take it as many times as you want in order to get a higher grade. The Bio 105 material is just difficult. You have to study to succeed. If you go over your exam with him during office hours he gives some points back. Some in class assignments are done as well.

Jason is the best! Really caring professor and is always available to help outside of lab time. Prepares the class well before giving lab practicals.

His class takes a lot of studying to do well on the exams, but he provides a lot of practice exams and other resources to help prepare. His final was really easy and the textbook is only read for extra help. He expects his students to have prior knowledge so at times it gets difficult to catch on. Overall his class was good though.

He is a nice guy and is very good at explaining what we are learning. He gives you 4 free passes to miss class throughout the semester. You will never be let out of class early though. He can be repetitive but overall a good teacher and I would totally take him.

I was shocked to see Dr. Freund had such a low rating. He isn't the best professor/teacher I've ever had, but he was alright. It's very lecture heavy but he posts the slides so you can get notes, there were a couple of group projects but they were doable. He moves quicky through the material, but is very willing to meet outside of class.

This is a great class with a great professor. There are only 3 exams and they aren't difficult as long as you do the work and pay attention. There is a lot of busy work that you don't have to do but it helps if you do. There is also a couple of easy projects that are grade boosters. You're placed into groups of four and in class you do worksheets.

BIO 105 is pretty difficult but Dr. Freund was pretty good. He basically told you what was going to be the short answer questions for exams. Gives a lot of practice exams and questions, just need to study a lot.

The one great thing about this professor is that he offered some basically free exam points after each exam. BIO 105 was just a tough class any way you slice it. I had friends who had worse professors for the class and better ones. I'd say he's pretty middle of the road. Always talks about fishing.

I was surprised to see such low ratings for Dr. Freund! His lectures could get lengthy and in-depth, but his exams focused on main ideas and I thought they were fair. He provided lots of office hours and gave extra points back on his exams. He is enthusiastic about the content he teaches, and I would definitely take a class of his in the future!

He is a very nice professor who clearly lays out what must be done to succeed in the class. Tests aren't weighted too heavy and there are a few EASY projects that go in as a test grade. He gets it's a bio 100 class so as long as you get between 70-80% on tests you should have a very good grade.

Professor Freund is a great professor that wants students to learn the basics of biology. He does not make the class harder than it needs to be. I will say lectures can get a little boring, but you always know what he expects of you.

He is a nice professor; however, the subject just isn't interesting, especially for non-biology majors. You are supposed to go through the modules outside of class. I never did, though, and I still ended up doing fine on exams. He has a service citizen project and then a research project, and 3 exams throughout the semester. Lots of group work

Professor Freund truly cares about his students, and is very personable once you get to know him! Bio 203 isn't the most interesting class and there is a lot of information to remember, but Professor Freund is very straightforward regarding the info you need to know. He sometimes goes on tangents about a topic. But overall is great & passionate!

Dr. Freund was overall a good teach for bio 203. I think his labs were easy and laid back, but you do have to study hard for the exams.

He does not teach, but the class is so easy. Some exams are harder than others, so just make sure you study and do the coursework. An A is easy to get in this class.

Dr. Freund is a chiller.

This was a veryyyy easy class with him. He's funny without trying to be and gets the content across. He always hints at exam questions in class, so as long as you're paying attention, you should be able to pass no problem.

Had a lot of in class assignments which made attendance mandatory however were free points. Lectures can get boring but I'd say he does his best to keep it engaging. Lots of resources on canvas to review topics. Make sure to study and re read notes/ watch videos and you'll be fine. As long as the effort is there exams aren't that bad.

I loved him, he loves conversating with students and making sure they fully understand the content in class. He would get a little annoyed if you asked him to repeat himself. I loved getting to know him over the semester. Lab it's self was difficult and there was a lot of homework, and the practical were difficult so you had to know your stuff
