Professor really cares and helps the students throughout the course. If needed help or extra credit just ask and it will greatly be granted. Lectures explain the topics very well, addresses what to go over before taking the exam, and tries to be on good terms with everyone to create a comfortable learning environment.
Great!
Amazing professor! Very caring and understanding, always willing to work with the student. Would have him as an instructor for every class if I could.
I would highly recommend this professor. He is very knowledgable and very helpful if you do not understand the material. He replies in a timely manner to your messages on Pronto. Over all I would definitely take this class again with him.

Very good professor and super understandable, you'll definetely learn during his labs which were fun and quick.
He's a great professor. Very accessible and helps students to understand material.

The class was super easy, he's clear in instructions, he gives a lot of feedback in lab, he's always available in pronto and he's very flexible. His exams are fair, there's a quiz per lecture chapter and lab quizzes per week, there's no homework, at the end you have a project but he provides the slides so you only have to explain the content.

Very nice professor, I would take it again, the exams is on the content, very communicative, he provides pp so there's no need to have the lecture book, but it does require the lab manual
Best professor ever, really understanding and willing to work with students schedule also makes the material fun and interesting would 100% take again
Best teacher ever. I thought MICROBIO was going to be the class I needed to be worried about the most, but it wasn't. If you need MICROBIO please take it with him, you won't regret it. He is genuinely nice and incredibly understanding. Easy A if you do all your work and are on top of your homework.
The professor is super understanding and does not try to drain or stress you out. Quizzes are held on lockdown browser, but they should not be something to worry too much about. 4 Lab exams, 4 Lecture exams, and 1 group project. These are the most important things to watch out for. Really funny and loves to joke around! Goodluck!
This professor is very understanding and gives enough time for each assignment. If you do your part in this class and do what is given you can pass this class with an A. I would definitely take this class again. Best teacher ever!
Professor Aquino's passion for teaching Microbiology translated into the students in our class which made learning fun and engaging! Grading was fair. Quizzes due weekly. Lecture exams and Practicals were based on powerpoints and labs! If you read and put the time required into studying, you are guaranteed to pass! Lockdown browser required.
Awesome course and lecture/lab conjunction. Very lenient as long as you apply yourself and give 100% during lecture.
Mr. Gomez is a great professor and a great person . His teaching style helps you learn and he gives lots of extra credit .
The professor was really considerate about grading and made assignments as easy as possible. This course does have a lot of lectures and the quizzes and exams are based on lectures. The answers are all in the lectures and easy to find. The assignments were very simple and easy to understand.
This professor is someone who looks for your best interest and is willing to further explain if you are in need of it.
He is a very great professor and cares about his students. He is also very attentive to his students and provide awesome study resources.

He was such an amazing professor, he taught us so well, he was clear with deadlines, homework, and class activities. He gave us a lot of chances to and extra credit assignments. I would 100% take this class again.
I had one of the best lecturers I've ever had. He collaborates with you; all you have to do is learn how to connect with him. Excellent lectures, excellent explanations of the courses, and answers any questions you may have. I strongly advise you to use him for any future biology classes you may have.
A great, down-to-earth teacher who was available when I needed help outside of class hours. Class was always enjoyable, even when I had a headache or was just tired, and he really connected with this class. If I was taking another required science class I would most definitely pick him again.
Really care for students success.
Amazing professor! He is really funny and teaches really well. His work is easy to understand and everything on the exams is on the information he provides for us on the power points.

Very good professor! The exams and quizzes follow the lectures exactly. Definitely recommend!
Honestly one of the best professors I've had. It was so refreshing coming into his class after a long day of school. I honestly wish I could take more classes with him. He really made me like bio again. If you take any science courses and have the opportunity to take it with him, do it!!
Mr. Gomez is such an understanding professor, he knows that some of his students have something in their life that occupies their time and he is willing to help you by giving you some extra time to finish the assignment.

Very good professor, very helpful if he sees you struggling. His labs are interesting and informative. Exams are not difficult but need studying in order to pass, this goes for lab exams as well. The way why lectures it is very easy to follow along and helps you learn when struggling. Extra credit opportunities that help the end result of grade.
Professor Gomez has been one of the best professors I have taken so far here at South Texas College. His dedication and ambition towards the students success is like no other. I would for sure take him again. Of course you have to put in the work this is a microbiology course so don't expect to be nothing. However, I guarantee an adventure.
You will get an A in this class if you put in the work! Very accessible and understanding! There was a lot that I learned in this class and the labs were very interesting. He will go back over material if you do not understand little things!!
Exams are difficult and no reviews are provided to study before exams so good luck with that. Lectures are nothing like the exams.
Good professor, 3 exams and exams are not hard. Makes sure that everyone is on the same page.
He is for sure one of the best teachers I've had. Do the work and participate and you'll be fine

He will be very hands on during the labs and we help you wwithout hesitation if you ask. If you miss and assignment and let him know he will most likely open it back up for you. Very funny guy, whole class liked him as well as myself. Would take again. :)
He explains the material more clearly, which will make it easier for you on exams and assignments. His grading is flexible and gives you opportunities to complete all assignments. He helps you anytime you ask for help and is always available outside class hours to answer any questions.
Great Professor. He always makes sure you learn the subject, he cares a lot for his students' wellbeing, and he answers very quickly any concerns you might have. He made biology easy for me, and I would totally take him again as my professor.
Dr Gomez gives every reasonable opportunity to pass, you very literally will only fail due to extreme negligence and can make a good score simply by applying yourself a little.
Wonderful class. Understands peoples situations. Very helpful.

great professor, passionate, and very understandable.
The professor is very open to understanding if you have issues with content. Grading is not lenient but rather respectable.

While there may not be much review, there are plenty of quizzes and practice exams that get a student properly prepared for the upcoming exams.

Mr. Aquino Gomez was one of the best Professors I've had. He makes lecture not only simple but also entertaining. He gives a good amount of work but nothing over the top and he also provides extra credit to his students who need it. 10/10 would recommend for anyone who is taking any biology class!!!
Professor Aquino Gomez was an amazing instructor and extremely helpful when dealing with work and with lab experiments. The extra credit assignments were helpful with bringing up my grade, and the homework load was fairly light. However, it is mandatory to keep up with the textbook chapters for exams and quizzes.
He is 1 of the best teachers I've had. He takes his time to answer questions and makes sure everyone understands what's going on before moving on. His tests are not too hard if you study. There are 2 quizzes a week, 1 for lecture and 1 for lab. These are not hard if you understood everything that was happening. I highly recommend him as a teacher.
This professor was very patient and understanding when it came to the workload and made sure to not overwhelm us; while also efficiently going through the course material. So far one of the kindest professors I've ever had and it was truly a privilege to learn from him.
Make sure to show up, communicate and review all notes before exams. He is really understanding, wants all students to succeed, he makes time for any questions during lecture and outside of lecture as long as you communicate that you need help he is more than ready to give that. Take him! You wont regret it
Very good professor I would love to take more classes with him. He was always available and ready to help at any time you needed help. Very helpful during labs and gives good quality lectures.
Very good professor, always available on pronto. Not a harsh grader at all and he offers extra credit!! . Assignments consists of labs he provides a video of the lab and we have to just follow along and answer the lab sheet. There is always a quiz and a discussion but nothing difficult at all. I totally recommend this professor. :)
Amazing teacher, who always responded within the same day. And gave so much extra credit that I had a 103 at some point. I highly recommend taking him.
He is extremely disorganized. First day everyone had past due dates from last year. He thinks we are biology majors with the proctored exams and whatnot. 2/10 would not take him again.
Super understanding and kind! My love for biology definitely boosted after this class !
He answers any questions you have throughout the lecture and the lab. During the lab, sometimes I couldnt hear him so i'd frequently ask him to repeat himself and he never got annoyed. Best professor.
He's a great professor. Seems passionate about the topic and helps a lot during labs. He sometimes likes to talk about stories during lecture but they relate to the chapters so it's cool. Overall, great professor, very funny and cares about his students.
Great professor learned a lot about microbiology. Exams were fairly easy if you would practice the study guide.
He cares about his students and works with you when you need assistance. His labs are enjoyable and gives detailed instructions on how to preform each skill.
He cares about his students passing. Always answer your questions and provided great examples. Very informative while lectures and labs. Does give extra credit if needed. He is very organized and makes lectures fun as well.
He is very kind, caring, and understanding. I look forward to coming to his class every time we met. He is a very fun, and funny professor his class goes over a lot of information, but it all interesting I would rate him an 100 out of 10 a professor I will never forget
Very lenient with grading, it helped me pass.
Overall, this professor is about as easy as it gets. He's very understanding and will work with you in any given situation. As long as you put in the work you'll pass his course very easily. He gives extra credit very generously as well so as long as you take the time to do it you'll pass with a high A+. Would definitely recommend!
This professor has becomes a live saver, he has end less stories to talk about. He's nice and generous, he's not strict but he's always there to remind you about certain things.
Pay attention and ask questions!
This it's a great professor, the quizzes and exams are based on the lectures. All the information he teaches would appear in the exams. He always asks if someone has any questions and if they do he explains and answers the questions very well. He explains one chapter per day, which is really good since you get to learn the information more easily.
This is a great professor he goes over whats going to be on the exams very well. He goes over and explains the chapters and almost always what we went over on the exams. He is very nice and caring and will work with you if you have any questions about the class or the work. The lecture slides were also very well organized and posted online for us.
I really recommend taking his course because he is very detailed with his lectures and he is always willing to work with you if needed.
This professor goes into extreme detail in lectures all the while he describes these lectures in simple ways, he is also very understanding and doesn't mind when you ask an influx of questions, he encourages it!
He is a great teacher, and there are multiple opportunities to get a good grade in class. I chose bio for non-majors, and it was pretty easy. He is one of the most understanding professors that I had.
Overall an easy class.
Definitely great as a teacher very intelligent and helpful. I believe does have expectations that aren't impossible to meet. Definitely do the extra credit assignments they help constantly.
Great professor
mr.aquino is a very understanding teacher, he's caring and ready to help you with any problems you may have. He is one of the best teachers to take for bio , i definitely recommend his class is fun and always felt relaxed able to ask questions.. just go in and do what your asked and you'll be fine
he is a very fun and outgoing teacher that made the labs and lectures enjoyable.
fun and easy I highly recommend
As long as try your best and listen, you'll be golden.
best professor I've taken ❤️
This professor is very respectful and goes the extra mile with each student if they are having trouble with any material. He is the professor all professors should strive to be.
This professor is awesome gives extra credit and is willing to work with you if you have any trouble regarding the course
Great professor, labs where done in groups and were easy to finish. quizzes every week with honor lock. Really easy class I would take him again. There is lectures one day and lab the other.
Responds to all student's questions. Not a hard grader. Made lectures interesting and fun. Overall, his class was not difficult at all.
The professor is very easy to talk to. He is very flexible with exams and uses HonorLock. He cuts the class into two sections. The first day would be lectures and the second half would be lab.
He is an awesome professor that actually cares about his students and helps them grow. He is very understanding and respectful. There is 5 exams total but he makes sure that you are well prepared and have provides great study guides. 10/10 recommend!!
Very good. Strong accent but other than that he is a very good professor. Class is mandatory and the labs are fun.
He is a wonderful teacher who goes out of his way to accommodate every student. He's well informed if any questions need to be addressed! Would definitely take him again
10/10 would recommend! His assignments are based off of the lectures and labs, which are easy to follow along. He is very clear during his lectures and I had no issues keeping up with his work. He gives practice tests so you have an understanding of what to expect on the exams.
If you slack off that will be on you, but Mr. Gomez is overall a great professor. Just listen and you will be good to go!
Very good professor, classes very straight forward, all labs group based
Don't be afraid to reach out to him for extensions to make up late work! Take advantage of the extra credit he gives to pick up your grade! And don't be afraid to ask questions, he's glad to help students in need!
He is a very understanding professor, which you do not see often. He made the course very interesting and easy to understand (considering I had to take this class again because a different professor was very hard). He is very nice and helpful, If I could take him again for any other class I would. :)
His grading was fair and worked with me when i was having difficulties with my schedule of work.
He was overall a great professor. Would take him again. Before an exam he gives you a practice exam that looks very similar to the real exam to help you study. You have assignments due every week. He uses lockdown browser on all quizzes and exams.
He is a very good teacher, and he will help you by giving you extra credit and he also give you practice test so you could practice for any test you have coming up.
He is a wonderful Professor who goes out of his way to accommodate every student. He is hilarious and definitely very understanding if you have a job and turn in an assignment late. He is also very fun to talk to and I would definitely recommend this course for people who need the credit. 100/10 reccomended. M
Great professor. There was 1 lab assignment and 2 quizzes per week, one being the lecture quiz and the other the lab quiz. He offers extra credit for each exam and creates a practice test for students that does not affect your grade. He is very attentive in class and if you need help with an assignments he will help. Tests are lockdown
Good professor! Goes over everything that needs to be done and gives a good amount of time to turn in assignments and quizzes. He does use a lockdown browser but it's not intimidating at all. 10/10 would take again :)
he is very helpful and explains his projects clearly, his tests are not that hard but attendance is minatory when doing labs .
I had never had a good experience with a biology class until I Took Mr. Jeffery Gomez Aquino's class. He is a very understanding and caring instructor. He always asks if we have any questions after every 15 min. of lecture as to make sure you are getting the lecture. There are weekly quizzes about 2 per week and chapter exams every 3 weeks. STUDY
Professor knows what it takes to be a student, so he definitely try's to be fair with everyone taking his class. Class is fun and and his lecture were hilarious, I enjoy his class even though I don't like science. His assignments are straightforward and quizzes are over his lectures. He provides a lot of extra credit for lecture exams and lab exam.
I had a good time taking this class. This class in my opinion was easy, the labs and the exams were easy to take. He does give out extra credit, but it is optional. He is very understanding and will answer any questions that you have. I recommend anyone to take his class, and it was pleasure having to take him this semester.
Taking professor aquino is a 10/10. He is a great professor, understanding, and hilarious. If you have any concerns, he is always there to help. Grading is clear and assignments are easy. He speaks both English and Spanish, which is amazing. I would retake this class again, that is just how fun he is.
Awesome way of teaching and making class fun and enjoyable. He does give out extra credit and it is not required to do so, however, it is extremely beneficial if you do it because you learn more and helps you with all the assignments and exams. He is always available outside of class, is truly caring and understanding. I highly recommend him!!!!!!!
Mr. Jeffrey was one of the best professors I have ever had. I learned a lot in this class and he cared about his students and whether or not we were learning. The tests were proctored but we were allowed to use notes.
Mr. Gomez is a good teacher I've learned a lot. But the class has a lot of work. Every week we have (2 labs) and (2 quizzes) through Honorlock. Every other week, we have a (50-question exam) through Honorlock. We also have (2 labs per week) and (1 Discussions per week ) I'm passing with an 87, but the class is stressful because of all the work.
Great professor; would definitely recommend to take his class. Very flexible and good with communication.
Great Professor to take for BIOL-2421. Very knowledgeable about this subject and makes learning fun.
The professor is very understanding and will work with you on matters if it is necessary. Be prepared to study but the work is easy and when you dedicate time and manage it well, you will pass.
This professor is nice and cares about his students. He makes it possible for you to pass with a lot of extra credit opportunities and even guides on his exams. I would take this professor again.
Mr.Gomez is very understanding. Although he has a strict deadline for assignments, he gives practice exams for both lab exams and lecture exams that help immensely. Don't ever feel intimidated with this professor! If you're having trouble, he is readily available to help. Very knowledgeable guy. You want a good class, take this professor.
There is a good amount of extra credit, and as long as you try, you are pretty much guaranteed to pass the class.
Dr. Gomez was a great professor! He was organized and easy to contact. He's willing to help you with your grades, and it is clear he is interested in the class! Not hard at all as long as you do the assignments, keep up with them, and take the extra credit opportunities. Highly recommend.
Very cool professor. 10/10 would take again
Prof. Gomez was always engaged with the class and willing to help us out during labs. A lot of content is covered in the overall microbiology course. However, the quizzes and practice tests allow you three tries, and the actual exams can be taken with one cheat sheet. Definitely keep up with your homework though, it can pile on fast.
The professor is awesome sauce.
I loved Mr. Gomez, he clearly knows what it is like to be a student having to juggle so many classes at once. He is very understanding when it comes to attendance and work, and is always willing to work with you if needed. He is a great teacher and has engaging labs and lectures, would take again.
Professor provided everything necessary to study and pass this course. Would recommend.
One of the best professor's I've had so far. Professor Gomez's lectures/labs are always helpful and engaging.
The course is difficult as it is microbiology , but he makes it as easy as possible. There are a lot of exams, but everything is in the power points and it is very doable, he gives extra credit opportunities and makes the lab really fun.
The professor is amazing - def recommend! He explains the material very well and ties it well to the real world which made it more digestible. He is also willing to work with you if there is an issue. Very understanding! He also uses power point lectures which he provides you with a copy available online which is very helpful when studying!
Professor Gomez is by far one of the best professors I have ever had! Makes learning fun, is always accessible, teaches in an easy manner, is flexible and understanding and overall a great person. You will not regret taking his class!
Professor Gomez is super knowledgeable about the subject and is willing to help out no matter the question. He is super caring about his students and understand we have more than his class. He made learning microbiology fun and easy.
amazing professor that makes classes and labs very fun. is always helpful and willing to answer any questions had. understanding of personal circumstances and is as accommodating as possible. lots of assignments, though not TOO hard, and plenty of extra credit oppurtunity.
The professor is very clear and easy to understand during lectures, explaining concepts in a fun way for everyone. He genuinely cares about his students' success and well-being, always creating a supportive learning environment. Definitely recommend and would take this class again!
Professor Aquino is an amazing professor overall! Took him for both 1408 and 1409 and have no regrets. His course consist of lecture and lab quizzes weekly, exams for every few units, research paper and final exam. He is flexible and understanding. Although biology is a tough subject, he makes class interesting and understanding. 10/10 recommend!!
The teacher was really helpful to us all students and was very respectful and helped us understand if we didn't know what something meant, and he would explain it to us in a way we could know. He would also explain the lab handouts so we could know what to do.
Awesome professor! Would take again if possible.
Mr. Gomez is a breath of fresh air for a biology major. He knows how to teach and hes very forgiving and lenient with tests. His class is very good and im glad to have had him as my microbio teach.
I really liked his class and felt that I learned more than I would with all of my previous professors.
Great professor! He explains clearly and keeps the class engaged. He offers a good amount of extra credit and is always willing to help. Highly recommend!
This professor helps you as much as he can. He is very flexible and works with you. He is awesome and fun. Just dont fall behind but very easy to catch up.
Such an awesome professor I really recommend, he is very caring and lenient. Microbio was so far my best science I've ever took because he made it so simplified and interesting. Tests are really easy and just do the practice tests and review the quizzes since most questions show up on the test and show up to lecture. 100/10 professor.
He is a great professor, there were never any issues when it came to tests, assignments, and overall feedback. You can leave after you have taken your exam. I actually learned a lot and enjoyed receiving new information. He offers practice exams to see how your test will be before taking them. The labs were always fun.
One of the best teachers I've had, very good at teaching and gives very good instructions on how to do lab and what he expects of lab.
This professor is amazing at what he does, you'll love to be in class no matter what. I really recommend this professor for any of his classes. If you ever need help, I can guarantee that he'll help you and explain it clearly.
He is a very good teacher i learned a lot during this course and would retake. He goes over all the material in the book and gives a fair amount of projects.
Professor Aquino is an amazing professor if youre going to take microbio. The class is very quiz and test heavy but there is extracredit offered. He is very accesible outside of class and is easy to work with. I would take his class again.
Mr. Aquino/Gomez is amazing, super respectful and kind. Honestly as long as you study and don't slack off on his practice exams and quizzes, you'll do great in his class. He makes his labs fun and entertaining, you'll never leave not knowing or understanding the material. He answers super quick and very efficient in his responses to problems.
Dr. Gomez was an incredible professor. He always made sure everyone understood before he moved to a new topic. I would 100 percent choose him for a class again.
An amazing professor—very passionate about his teaching, and very understanding and helpful to everyone.
This was my second course taken with him. He is very kind and always willing to help.
Professor Jeffery gomez was amazing. Best professor I have ever taken here at south texas college, take him while you can he's awesome took him for bio 1 non majors and bio 2 take before his classes is fulllllll.
Professor Jeffrey Aquino Gomez's online class was very stressful. We had 2–3 labs almost every week, quizzes with Honorlock, weekly discussions with replies, and exams every other week (50 questions). A total of 89 graded items! He did offer extra credit, and I still passed with an A-, but it was a lot of work.
I took Professor Jeffrey Aquino Gomez in the summer and he was the best professor I've ever had. He is so nice and cares about his students. He gives practice tests- very similar information to the test. Extra credit opportunities. Wish he would teach BIOL 2 ! Just pay attention, take the practice tests, and do your work and you should get an "A".
Great professor if you have the chance to take him do it!!! The first week can be overwhelming but once you got the hang of it it's super easy took him in the summer he was rehash to reach out and really care about his students.
he was amazing would take it again.
He's a really good professor—if you can, definitely take a class with him. 10/10!
Mr. Gomez taught this class of 8 weeks and did well with the time allotted. There was some time crunch involved and some lectures had to be made available over the weekend. Even though he was busy with other matters he made time to respond promptly to student questions. The experiments were also very informative and were conducted safely.
Super nice and understanding professor! Very accessible to students and answered any questions that were asked.
Professor Gomez is an excellent instructor who explains difficult concepts clearly and makes learning engaging. He genuinely cares about student success, offers support when needed, and organize lectures well. Highly recommend!
Super chill guy just ask questions and he'll easily help you out
Great instructor, explains everything very well, very knowledgeable, and very professional.
This professor was one of the best ones I have ever had throughout the whole time in STC. He was patient and very informative. I really liked how he taught because he is very knowledgeable and knows how to break things down, and all the labs were fun. He is very kind and understanding, I would definitely take his class again.
I really enjoyed being in Mr. Gomez's class. He explained everything clearly and made the class fun and interesting. As long as you show up and stay engaged, you'll be fine. He's also very understanding if something comes up.
The professor is very passionate about the courses and material he teaches. The information he provides is the most useful and applicable for our future carriers. The knowledge he gives us is applicable as we continue to move forward in our careers or purse of higher level education.
Mr. Gomez is an amazing instructor. Very understanding as the majority of us are nurses or nursing students. He provides practice tests to help prepare for exams, and powerpoint lectures are really all you need for lecture exams as well. I enjoyed his class and have already recommended him to my friends who plan to pursue their ADN, RN or BSN.
AMAZING professor. Great with communicating with you. He assigns 2 chapters a week, 2 (5 question) quizzes, and a few exams throughout the semester. (everything is proctored and he will check recordings.) HE WILL HELP YOU IF YOU NEED IT! Just ask. There is a research presentation, very chill grader for that. Just do assignments and you will pass!
