This guy is great. This class was very hard and he made it do-able. He's a Berkeley neuroscientist who is giving back by teching at City. Amazing! I learned a ton in this class. If only they could all be like this.

great professor. he has a good sense of humor. he's not easy but he really wants his students to do well.

Best professor I've had. He is very clear in his explainations of the subject matter and is quite funny at the same time. He is very fair in grading too. Wonderful experience.

Great professor. He's not super easy but as long as you do all the work, you'll get a B at least. He's funny sometimes but usually corny. He tries to help the students as much as possible and is very approachable. Any problems just talk to him.

This is the best Bio teacher ive ever had. He is very approachable and is always willing to help you out. His teaching methods are great and he'll even burn you a copy of his notes on a cd if you ask him to. The material isnt that easy but he makes it so that you can understand it.

Alot of grop work plus outside activity

Dr Reyes is one of the best teachers I've had. He lectures from power point and and can be entertaining. Just be sure to sit with smart people on your first day of lab since 20% of your grade comes from a group lab presentation at the end of the semester. If you pay attention and do all the work you should get at least a B in class

Excellent Prof=clear,fair,available & personable;will copy powerpoint lectures onto CD for students;emphasizes team work in Lab;requires outside reports supported by peer reviewed literature;translates difficult concepts into practical and easily understood forms;very helpful to students;very nice person and fun lecturer.

Dr. Reyes ROCKS! Makes everything clear, goes from concepts to details--study his notes and you'll ace the exams! He's awesome, and most of my friends had a massive crush on him :D

Dr. Reyes is the best! Not only does he know his material, he genuinely cares for his students. Since he is so passionate about the topic, it makes you learn more. His lectures are clear and interesting and the labs are fun. He is very approachable and welcomes any questions yo u may have. No question is a stupid one. A overall great professor!

Very helpful and approachable... our class always had a great time with him especially during lab hours though majority of us were tired from working the whole day.

Great teacher, applies physio to everyday life. Would have liked it more if we didn't have to do a group presentation in lab. My group was lazy and I did all the work & we all got the same grade regardless of how much work we did individually. If I had known this before hand I would not have taken this class.

very helpful, whoop dont have a crash on him...

he nis one of the best profesor I ever had he is clear funny and his subject he never lecture from the book i would like to taking againg

He brings an enthusiasm and clarity to a very difficult subject. He makes you believe that you can handle the material and drives you forward gently and lovingly without ever giving a direct answer. He invites you to think and form an opinion of your own as opposed to parroting him. I learned a tremendous amount in what is an introductory class.

reyes is a really great teacher. i wouldn't have dropped the class if he was the only one teaching. i kind of don't like hanson. He confuses me...

Good lecturer, clear, entertaining, & to the point. Exam ques. are based on lecture notes & reading. Keep up with the readings or you'll drown, not to mention fail the weekly quizzes. I had Reyes for lecture and Hansen for lab, both instuctors grade hard on the lab reports, so don't slack there. Few extra credit points avail. on quizzes & exams.

Excellent Prof-Clear, knowledgable, fair, engaging & fun. The subject requires a regular and sustained effort to accommodate the high volume and complexity of the material. His enthusiasm & great teaching style heightened my motivation to keep up. Truly remarkable considering the very large class sizes. Lab group projects were a challenge since we had clashing personalities on the team but it was a valuable learning experience.

great teacher. like any science class, your grade depends on attendance. my only gripes were that we only covered about half the material on the silibus and the lab was virtually pointless.

BEST TEACHER I'VE EVER HAD

If you want to learn something, take a course from Dr. Reyes.

GREAT teacher, makes it very clear. Weekly quizzes are easy. Physio 1 and 12 are pretty much the same, the difference is that Physio 1 is a little bit more detailed but not much more at all. Recommended!!!!

One of the most enjoyable science professors I've ever had. Relates seemingly complex material to easily understood, real-life situations. Great sense of humor. This class is a lot of work but doing the work guarantees an understanding of the material and good grades.

BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!! i learned A LOT from him. VERY helpful, nice, funny and clear. He's always there to help you when you need help. Never seen him yell at anybody or give attitude in any way. Go to his lecture and he will make everything simple and clear for you. A lot of work in his class, but they're all really helpful. TAKE HIM! TAKE HIM!

I have Dr.Reyes's Lec. Learn a lot from the class. The materials are hard. Have to wrok very hard if you desire to get an A. Very clever and very nice guy.

Dr. Reyes is a really great teacher in Physiology 12 class at CCSF. I am still taking his class this semester (Fall 2007)and I have been doing fine. He is a very flexible and understanding professor I have ever had. His lecture are as clear as crystal and he is humourous too. You will never get bored going to his lectures and labs. Recommende

one of the best teachers i've had. keeps things funny and interesting. most of lectures were from guyton text(required), not germann,the required one. i learned so much from this guy in a short amount of time. tons of work to do!!!

dr reyes is the best professor i have ever had in my long college career. he loves what he does and it shows. he knows his material, he is prepared, he is tech savvy, he is funny, he relates physio to every day life to help you understand. weekly quizzes. few papers and final project. he is always available to hellp and explains things really wel

Best professor that I have ever had! There is no limit to the depth of his subject knowledge and his ability to explain it to you in a way everybody can understand is impressive. Can not give him a high enough recommendation. There is no way to make physio "easy" hard work is unavoidable but having a good guide truly helps!

def. take reyes over hanson any day for physio. he has got his teaching down - great explanation of difficult subject matter. and yes, he is hot!! he s just a great person and superb teacher.

i took physio 1 instead of physio 12 due to limited seats. it was okay except the group presentation at the end of a semester. extremely busy up to the final week. however, his exams and quizzes directly come from lecture handouts and a textbook. review them every week, and you will succeed. p.s. recording was really helpful for me (esl student).

Dr. Reyes is one of the best professors in CCSF. He knows his material very well. Physiology is a hard subject but he explains the subject matter clearly and tries to make it fun. Lectures can be downloaded from his website. He is very helpful, don't be scared to ask. Great guy. Highly recommended!!

Great teacher. Keeps you interested.

Great teacher. The best in city college.

Great teacher. Funny at times. His work is very tedious but it's also helpful. He gives a quiz every week (most quiz questions will be on the tests). I love how his lecture slides and assignments are all on his website. I didn't use the book but attended almost every class and did pretty good. His quizzes are based on his lecture. His labs are fun.

I wish all teachers were like this one...that's why his classes are always frickin' full!!!

14 quizzes, 1 midterm, one final. 2 lab reports, 2 outside reports, 3 problem sets. He is one hot turkey!!!!

15 quizzes, 1 midterm, 1 final, 4 problem set, 2 lab reports. most questions from quizzes will be on the midterm, but not on the final. lab reports are a bit hard. like any other science class, this one is hard, but if you attend class, review notes weekly youll be ok. you need to work hard for an A.

Dr. Reyes is my favorite instructor, although he would not answer all the questions which I asked him. Not only did he explain his lecture clearly and enjoyably, but also he used his physiological knowlege to make his students feel relaxed and interested during the stressful studying. You will learn a lot beyond physiology in his class.

Amazing teacher and great leader. Never dull, never down, always there to raise spirits, give confidence, and explain complex ideas in understanding ways without omitting detail. The homeboy is Super-****.

Great teacher, sold the material very well. Super engaging, medium difficulty, if you kept up and studied. Really highlights whats important

The class is never bored. He makes difficult subjects understandable. Attendance is not mandatory, but you do not want to miss any of them since you will have trouble to find it in the book. If you cannot come, ask a friend to share their lecture record. Tutor is a great source for reports. Overall, I love his teaching. Smart,Understand teacher.

Dr.Reyes knows how to keep his students engaged, helpful and straightforward with his lectures. class can be overwhelming sometimes and requires alot of work, its once best interest to not slack off in this class due to alot of material to cover.pay attention to lectures, recommend a digital voice recorder for lectures to help study for quizes.

Prof Reyes is awesome--he speaks in terms we understand and frequently uses everyday analogies. He gets us worked up and interested in the material and encourages students to work together and learn together.

The best teacher i have had at city college. Explains everything very well is able to relate very well to his students. The lab is very fun, 2 lab reports and a group project. The tests are a bit hard but he explains what will be on them. Is very friendly and down to earth I HIGHLY recommend this class if you want to understand physiology.

This guy is one heck of a teacher. He makes learning physiology fun and also puts it into real life contexts. There's a lot of work though. You have to put it a lot of time into research but it all really is worth it in the end. All of his quizes and exams are based 85% on his lectures and 15% on the book!

Awesome teacher, but makes you work. I would take any of his classes.

The best teacher in my 50+ years of having gone to school! He makes everything extremely understandble and is very engaging. Every week a quiz over the past week's material which are your study guides for 2 exams. It is easy enough as long as you stay on top of the material. Presentations are clear and downloadable. Miss him already.

Very Helpful, and A LOT of work. Go to class, take good notes, and do your best. If you get anything lower than an A, it's because that person chose NOT to work for it. He is fair, clear, and helpful.

No, he's not easy. Work your butt off to get his A! You also will have to self-learn a lot. It's not his fault though, just because the course covers so much stuff that you will definitely have to learn by yourself. This is greatly reflected in the problem sets with the questions he's never or rarely mentioned (lack of time). Anw he's good to take.

Dr. Reyes is the BEST instructor in CCSF..!!His class is hard, ofcourse it's physio, science course so what do we expect? you have to work hard to really get an A.,,I really like his class, and the way he present his lecture..you're the man!!!

Dr. Reyes is the BEST!! (i took phys 67 and hlth 70) I learned SOOOO much! I loved both classes. AMAZING lectures. He explains complex concepts clearly and is very helpful when you have questions, plus very helpful during office hours. One of the greatest teachers EVER!!! plus he is funny!

Dr. Reyes is inspiring and amazing. He will make you work hard but if you are up for the challenge you will feel like you can accomplish anything after taking his class. He genuinely cares about his students.

Reyes is extremely passionate about physiology and teaching! He moves through material at a very reasonable rate and gives many opportunities besides tests to get a good grade, and he wants his students to do well. I would absolutely recommend this class, and am actually going to miss it!

Took his class few years back, and still remember many of the stuffs I've learned. Helpful teacher, interesting lectures, easy small quizzes and (big) tests. Lab could be fun too!!

Reyes made me love and understand physio. Weekly Quiz, Lab reports and problem sets are a pain but you will learn so much from them. I got an A in the class because I worked hard on his weekly quizzes. You end up not having to cram for the exams since you are forced to study for the quizzes weekly. He is brilliant!!!!

Cool guy, very passionate about physio, not an easy class though. I took it with other science coursework, worked PT, and was struggling. Tests were HARD!

:D This professor is so cool! Very nice/understanding and has the patience for anyone. Wants you to learn. Two lab write ups + one group project. Boy, you will have SO much fun doing the group project. Many memories made and I will not forget them. Thank you :D highly recommended.

REYES!!! Amazing Professor. Such a cool guy. I only had Physio lab with him but I learned a lot and I enjoyed his lab. He's very patient with his students and provides a lot of examples and easy-to-understand metaphors to explain physio concepts. He is approachable and easy to talk to when you need help.

Dr Reyes hands down the best professor you'll ever have. Not saying it'll be easy, but you will walk out learning. Expect to work hard make sure your not taking alot of courses because physiology period is very demanding. Reyes teaching method is extraordinary original making the subject fun and non-boring. Great professor

Great professor, encourage people to try harder, I find the class very easy, just listen carefully in class, you wouldn't really need to study or review as the problem set and outside research paper is enough to keep you on track. The weekly quiz is really easy too, it's all based on his lecture. I never really used the book I borrow from bookloan.

One of the best teacher i had.I love his analogies. it makes the lecture easy/fun to understand.He is a very loose teacher.As long as you pay attention to the lecture, the quizzes are easy.The only thing that is hard is the lab reports/ few problem sets. Multichoice & T/F on midterm/final.you have 33% of answering his multichoice correctly sometime

awesome professor. Must take him if you are a hard worker who want an A. weekly quiz base on the last two or three lectures. He give 50 points for attendance so at the end of semester you will find half or one grade higher. Reyes make the hard class easier.

He is a hard grader, you really need to work for your grade. Make sure you do good on the homework and the Labs they really bring up your grade. Prof. Reyes is helpful, and is always there to help on anything during lab or office hours. His lectures are clear and he has great notes. I recommend him a lot!!!

I loved this class but get ready to work! You with have a multiple choice midterm and final. 10 point quiz a week (he gave a lot of free 10 point ones tho). 2 papers (one page only). 4 problem sets (he drops the lowest score). 2 lab reports. And one huge group final project in lab. Best advice choose your lab partners wisely!

great class! Makes a tough subject understandable. He is very patient and focused.

Professor Reyes is great, he knows what he talks about. Class is fun but it can get hard study for midterm/final. Get ready to work !! he gives lots of extra points just for being in class. Homework can take you a long time. Weekly quizzes are very helpful so just read his lecture slide show & you'll do fine. Lab can be a little boring sometimes

Very enthusiastic lecturer. Lectures are very interesting and informative. This guy clearly knows his stuff. Lab write ups are tough but experiments are interesting. One of the best professors I have had.

AMAZING ! I got a C in the class, and I am still saying this! (received A's on tests, missed some key papers.) The guy is hilarious, super suave, and loves what he does. unfortunately he is not teaching at the moment. But when he comes back, and he will, you need to sign up asap! And remember, he grades hard, but he teaches harder!

Professor Reyes is the Department Chair of Bio for a reason. His knowledge and passion for science and to help others understand it are unparalleled. Seriously one of the best professors I have ever taken. This was my THIRD time taking Physiology (1st time C 2nd time W). Finally someone was able to make this class make sense to me!!!

Prof. Reyes is an amazing instructor!! He really knows how to relate to the class and gives amusing and informative lectures. If you put in the work, he reciprocates 10 fold. He provides affordable solutions for class materials and genuinely cares about his students. Highly recommended!!

I love how passionate he is at what he's doing and teaching, it seems like he never gets tired. Whenever we ask him something, he passionately answers everything, w/o hesitant, you can see it through his eyes that he's excited about everything. He's always happy,smiling, glowing & he just got a good vibe aura. He's the best professor I've ever had.

The best prefessor ever, I love him so much!

Dr. Reyes is amazing professor. Hes inspirational and truly cares about his students. Make sure you study, hes not easy class. But if your purpose is to succeed in your career or to get a high score in the teas exam, then hes your man.

Dr Reyes is always supportive when I need help and engaging in both the lecture and the lab. I enjoy how he gives real life examples such as disease states and the pictures he got from the research all had a story to share. The class is not easy. Make sure you don't miss the weekly quiz (multiple choice) and find help for the lab report.

HES AMAZING! Although the class material is NOT easy, it is hard. But he tries his best to break it down for you and make it easy. Hes funny and a great guy. He seems really passionate regarding human physiology. Don't miss lecture because you'll miss tons of info! Expect weekly quizzes, problem sets, lab reports, and the midterm/final.

Dr. Reyes is the best instructor I have taken! He truly cares about his students and will do everything in his power to help you succeed. Just show up to class, take his extra credit quizzes, put in study time and ask questions. I would take his class again! I took him for Intro to human anatomy and physiology. Don't see the course option.

5/5 A very lovely professor and passionate about teaching. He wants you to pass and succeed. Work hard and ask questions, you will get an A. Very clear about deadlines, make sure you turn in stuff on time. He has positive attitude shine your day (literally). Take him if you are in health fields, you will have a great journey!

Materials were not easy but he made them easier to digest. His videos were clear, I never had to look up extra explanations from other online resources. His tests are mostly for your understanding of the concepts. One of the best professors at CCSF, I am forever grateful.

I have Dr. Reyes in my last semester here in CCSF and it was a incredible experience I ever have. He's caring, understanding and helping students. The lecture and assignments may heavy but he always give good feedback and chance to fix things to get higher grades. Finals is not counted so if you do good, dont have to care about the last exams

Dr. Reyes is kind, considerate, transparent, & always willing to help. The reading is heavy & the material is dense. Good @ making material digestible. Participation matters, but the workload is moderate & due dates are reasonable. Fair grader. Labs are fun. Group presentation @ the end of the sem. Final has no negative impact on overall grade.
