Dr. Capers is very nice. She goes over things so that you understand and will answer any questions as long as you ask them. She will let you know if you need to know something for the exam and even gives you a STUDYGUIDE, which it is EXTREMELY HELPFUL for the test. Pretty much take notes and do the study guide and you will be okay.

She really takes the time to answer your questions during lab, and if you ask exactly what is on the test she will tell you. Kind.

Dr. Capers is the most helpful and kind teacher. Will help you with questions no matter how long it takes. Would take her again.

Mrs. Capers is a wonderful teacher. She will take her time to go over anything if you just ask. Very quick to respond to emails as well. I am sad that she does not teach any of my other science classes.

A nice and friendly teacher who mostly tells you what will be on the test. Just study well because it's not always clear cut answers.

Dr. Capers is a great professor! Biology is an extremely hard subject for me, but she tells you what you need to know, gives study guides, will help you with any questions and if you have a problem, she is willing to work with you. Great teacher!!!

Capers is a very good instructor, very helpful. She speaks in English terms, easy to understand. Recommend to take her class.

Mrs. Capers was definitely the greatest teacher i had last semester. She is very helpful and makes her class almost impossible to fail. She gives study guides and goes over any questions you may have. I am taking her again for Bio 2 lab :)

Awesome professor! Will take her for other labs.

Took Dr. Capers for both Bio and A&P I Lab (was extremely relieved to see she slid into the ONLY A&P Lab spot!!) Not only is she very helpful but she makes learning something so boring fun and interesting. She is helps you ways to learn things you thought would be difficult. Hope to take her for MCB and A&P II!

Dr. Capers is super easy to learn from and very helpful

Dr. Capers takes a tough subject and makes you want to learn it. While the class is tough, lots to memorize, she makes you feel like you can ask her anything. She provides a great learning atmosphere. I hope she will be teaching my other science classes! If you can get into her class, you will not regret it!

I took Dr. Capers for Biology 1 Lab, and found her class to be very interesting. She is helpful, and clear on what to study for your practicals. Easy to talk to. This is a class that you HAVE to STUDY for.

Had her for lab, she is very nice and helpful.

Great lab class for AP2. I would think this class would be drawn out in a regular semester but in the summer it moves right along. Lots of info to learn but SO interesting. Not sure why the person below took any summer class expecting a cake walk, class work sounds exactly like a Bio class should be. Dr. Capers is a wonderful professor!

Dr. Capers is a new instructor, but she was born to teach in this field. She is straight forward and if you need to know something, she helps you find it and not just gives you the answer. That's what learning is all about. If you want to learn, and some of us still do. I would recommend her.

took her for AP1 Lab for the summer, she is the best!!!!!! would take her again if i could for ap2 and mirobiology if she taught it.

Dr Capers was born to teach, the person who said she sucks just told everyone on here what a little baby they are, bio 1 over the summer, not a bright move! She is without a doubt one of the top 5 instructors I've ever had, clear, consice and very helpfull.

Great teacher. She is very helpful and smart. I would take her again. As long as you study the handouts and materials presented in class you will be fine. She is very helpful.

Excellent teacher. Very Helpful. If you can follow directions and study the test reviews, you will do very well in this class.

Had her for BSC2010L and BSC2094L She is a very good Professor. If you pay attention in class and study the material she specifies, there are no surprises. TAKE HER CLASS

Absolutely loved this teacher! I took her for Bio 1 during the summer and struggled but she was very helpful. This is possibly the BEST teacher in the BIOLOGY Dept!! If you can't pass her, you can't pass anyone!

Great instructor, she presents the material that you will need. Very fair, if you do the work you will be ok. If you are a slacker than this is not the class for you.

I would have to say this is one of the greatest teachers I have ever had at IRSC. She was the most helpful teacher and will do anything to help you pass the class. You have to study and do a lot of work to do well though.

She is a GREAT teacher. I wouldnt say that she was an easy A class but she does not work you too hard. Does not go outside of study guides. Understanding teacher-TAKE HER

Amazing teacher, she loves to help everyone out and is very clear with her material, i had her for lecture and lab and the same material was said in each class to reinforce what we learned! she was an AMazing teacher!

Had her for lab. Amazing teacher. Always willing to help. She made it really clear what was going to be on the final, and it seemed to good to be true, but it was a really easy final. Almost everyone got an A. Great professor, learned a lot, used the book.

While she spends almost no time teaching and lecturing this lab, there really isn't a need for her to do so. She provides ample study time and answers questions quickly. She even admits when she doesn't know the answer but will find it for you.

Dr. Capers is Awesome! She's a great teacher and is really nice. Do the Study Guides and you'll pass with at least a B

Who doesn't love Dr. Capers? She is an amazing professor and wants you to do well. I had her for A&PII Lab and wish I had taken her for other classes. She is very clear, helpful, and a joy to be around. There wasn't a moment that she didn't look around to make sure her students understood the topic. Love her and you will too. Thanks Doc! :)

Dr. Capers has to be the best professor at IRSC. She is not a push over, but she is extremely helpful and wants you to do well. I took her for biology & both A&P labs. She is Awesome.. You have to sign up for every class she teaches.

Dr. Capers is the BEST teacher that I have ever had. she is extremely helpful and wants you to succeed and do well in the course. She is just GREAT Please take her class..... AWESOME teacher... very understandable!

i had Capers before and she WAS great. But these past 2 semesters I have been really disappointed. I mean, her class is easy but she is not all there. And she will never get back to you on email. She probably has emails from years ago she still has not read. The study guide is the only helpful thing now. I hope she bounces back..:/

OMG people! She was really nice. She never had a problem stopping for questions. She would stay after. She showed interest when I had questions.In this class you have to memorize and study, I am sorry but she doesnt hand out free grades. I would take her again.I passed C. Thats on me. I do not memorize well.

Great Prof. she is really helpful and her material isn't extremely difficult. If you think she is hard, try taking Tyler or Presely..

She tells you exactly what she expects you to learn and doesn't throw any surprises at you come test day. If you don't undertand something, tell her and she will do all that she can to help you out. As a helpful study tip, print out her slides from her website, bring them into class, and take pictures of all of the specimens that she points out.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND! If ya care about your GPA, you better STAY AWAY FROM CAPERS! She's horrible! She gives study guides which were pointless cause I still failed the tests anyhow. And she gave extra credit. Still doesn't help. She goes through her powerpoints fast and you end up teaching yourself. Just safe yourself the trouble! Take someone else!

Dr. Caper's class is not for everyone. It is difficult, but she is so helpful. Email her, ask questions, use all the materials she posts on her course webpages, and most important tip READ THE TEXTBOOK! Many students just looked up the definitions or only the topics listed on the study guide - really bad idea, they didn't pass.

LOL! These people on here are trippin'! Dr. Capers isnt for everyone so dont depend too much on other ppls experience to decide for you because everyone is diff.! I took her over the summer and I STILL got an A Study guides werent helpful but the powerpoints were all you needed! Heres how I passed:Print ppt. and take notes on them as she goes! DUH!

This is a continuation of my comment below..people say she goes fast only because they are trying to copy down the ppt instead of having it with them! Dr. Capers was super nice but you have to put in work to pass! I took Presley for BIO 2 and I CRIED because she was sooo hard. Dont be fooled,Capers is better than any of the other professors folks!

Dr. Capers definitely kept my attention during my weekly life science class. The tests were a bit difficult, but if you have ANY questions, she's always willing to answer. She's extremely helpful and I recommend her for science. I plan on taking her for bio I and II

She was an amazing professor. I read the study guides, did not get the book and still did great. Helpful if you need additional help.

Had her for Micro lab. Great Prof. Very helful. Very nice. She gives out sheets with the info for what we are supposed to learn in class, and all you have to do is study the info, and tests are pice of cake

Very nice teacher. She is willing to answer questions during class, or meet in her office to go over anything with you. As long as you read your book, notes, and do her exam study guides you're fine. You definitely need to put forth the effort, this is not an easy class. A lot of memorization.

She was a really good Marine Environmental teacher. All her exams are based off her study guide and powerpoints! she is extremely nice and a pretty good all around teacher!

She always rushed through class and let us out at least 15 minutes early, usually 30-45 minutes early. I found her class easy because I am good without much help, but if you need help and can't study well, you will most likely fail. She was really cute too, nice lady, not too much of a teacher though.

Great teacher. goes over key information on power points and then explains the big concepts on the chalkboard. She will answer any questions and she is quite good looking. easy multiple answer tests. All i did was read over the powerpoints and it was an easy A.

Not a whole lot of communication, but I read through all her power points and took notes out of the book. The study guides weren't super helpful, just made you further understand subjects that weren't always on the test. Pretty straightforward, just very inclusive, large tests so studying and reading the book would be most helpful. Use online hw!

I can't speak to how she is as a professor teaching a class in person, but she was great online. Very helpful when I had questions, prompt responses from emails. I missed a test and she let me sit in her office and look over the test so I could be prepared for the final. The class was not easy, but this is college; it's not supposed to be easy.

Immunology lecture is very laid back, but challenging. Lectures are enjoyable, and questions can be asked freely. Class usually opens with a discussion of current relavent events, which is fun and helps make topics memorable. The subject matter is advanced, and can be difficult, but lectures are concise. Study guides given for test are VERY USEFUL

I got an instructor withdrawal because I didn't understand a thing :(. I had a low C. Take somebody else she sucks!!!! Reads directly from the PowerPoint!!

She is an amazing professor! She would always help me if I needed it. Also she is an amazing person I swear I talked to her after every class. I totally recommend her for gen bio 1. I loved her so much I signed up for two of her classes next semester. I didn't even study for her class and I ended up with a B.

Overall good helpful teacher. just ask here any question.

Go to class and take notes, you will pass with ease. She is extremely nice and understanding. Only 4 tests in the semester and a couple homework assignments. Not much work at all.

From reading other reviews, I don't think most people realize that Capers posts the audio from all of her lectures on blackboard so if you miss class or you just need a refresher, you can listen to the whole class again. Also yes, the study guides are broad but she covers almost everything on tests in lecture. If you need help she is always there.

I love Prof. Capers. I took her class for gen bio 1 and 2. She is extremely intelligent and dedicated to her work. She goes over her PowerPoints in class with time to spare and answers any questions you may have. If you work hard and study, you will do just fine.

Tests are all multiple choice. Provides study guides. All ways replies to emails. Easy to understand and answers any questions. Heavy material but if you study you will pass. Skip a couple classes and some topics will be confusing. Provides powerpoints. Does visuals on the board if you are confused. Wonderful teacher, highly reccomend.

This course was the worst. It's taxonomy of everything for the first half of the semester. then the second half is all body systems. It felt like 5 classes crammed into one. Get ready to develop photographic memory or you wont get an A. the course itself is horrible its a mash up of so many concepts. a diff teacher wouldn't have made a difference

Dr. Capers was very helpful when it came to explaining difficult concepts when I visited her during her office hours. The lectures are power point based and if you study them along with the worksheets you'll do fine. The tests are difficult, but if you sit with the material and learn it they aren't impossible. You get the grade you earn.

She posts good lectures, and responds quickly to emails. Your grade consists mainly of exams, so make sure you study everything on the power points thoroughly. Lowest test score is dropped.

Shes a great professor I came to her with concerns about getting a c in the class she was very understanding offered me a chance to withdrawal before the final. She went over what was on the final and made me feel better bout it and I ended up with a b in the class. She does lecture so pay attention because her test question can be very hard.

Dr. Capers knows her stuff and is passionate about what she's teaching. No late work, but you can drop an exam and a worksheet grade. I took her hybrid and had online lectures (similar to in-class) that I listened to on repeat. You WILL NOT PASS BY ONLY STUDYING THE WORKSHEETS, they are a guide and not as specific as the exam questions. Study hard!

I took this class online. Didn't watch a single lecture. She is strict about late work. aka NONE. But other than that so easy. Homework was worksheets. I finished them the day they were due in like an hour or two. 2 proctored tests on honor lock. Still googled everything on my phone.. 2 tests non-proctored. Still found every answer on my phone. eZ.
