Prof. L is a cool teacher and very animated when he teaches which makes learning in his class fun. He draws the illustrations of what he's talking about and since I learn pretty well with this style of teaching, it works for me. He's very informative and funny. He's willing to do what he can so the class to understandswhat he is teaching.
i really liked him! he makes studing for these material easier than other professors! prepare to learn and dont slack off. i promise you will do well.
great professor, prepare to work though, take your time and you'll do great in his class, ask questions, read, and you'll do well.
Professor Lil' Yeah Doll is mad cool. He teaches well and he makes it interesting with his "side stories." Don't take his kindness 4 weakness. He is NOT a pushover! Oh, and he is not german . . .
Karl Liljedahl is a brilliant, charismatic, and sexy instructor. What he brings to a classroom with his humor and effortless witt is unique. He's very relatable and animated in his lectures and keeps you engaged by his passion and enthusiasm for the material. He uses a lot of common analogies in relation to the material to make it easier. Loved him
I just started my class and I am already enjoing his lectures. He is energetic and very charming.
No Comments
too cute great lectures makes you look forward to being in class test are staright forward no trick questions
Professor Liljedahl should moonlight as a stand-up comic. He's very sensitive to students' with extenuating circumstances. If you fail his class, you did absolutely nothing the entire semester!
Good looking and funny, who wouldnt enjoy going to class?He is pretty easy and approachable to the student. He makes learning fun!:-)
First of all he is prof Lil ya doll is the best instructor in the world, I loved him, actualli fell in luv with the way he teaches. His sense of humour and examples makes evrything easy to understand. he is not an easy A, but Ya He is an easy A if you just leran evrything from his notes or if u note down whatevr he says in his lectures,,, I luv u p
he is the biology teacher ever.. i took bio 109 before and failed because the professor did not relate the topics to the students but with liljedahl he is awesome.. class is so fun and he is very bright.. i wish he was teaching 110. so thanks to him i am so interested on bio and i recommend him to everyone!!!!
Prof. L was a good teacher. I will recommend. You will find some of his joke amusing.
What can i say i came in hating biology and now i love it. Professor Lilijedahl is a great teacher.I just think it's unfair he doesn't teach 110.
Hmm, I still miss him..he is the greatest teacher I ever saw.
He was an excellent instructor.
He's the coolest biology teacher ever. He gives you notes which makes things a whole lot easier to understand. He's very patient and listens. He makes learning biology fun and exciting to learn. Here my advice take him, you wont regret it.
This is an good professor to take for BIo 109
he is one of the best techers i've had in my college experience so far and i started in 2005.
Prof Lilijedahl is a GREAT instructor. I'm a Bio grad from Temple University and Prof Lilijedahl puts them all to shame. He actually TEACHES the material, unlike the profs at TU that just give the pages to read and expect you to teach yourself. Overall, Prof Lilijedahl gets a A+++++++++++ review. Take him if you can...it's a MUST!!
Karl Liljedahl is the greatest professor i have ever had!!!! I didn't know if i could pass a Bio class but he is making it possible. He brings his sense of humor and charm to his lectures. He gives everyday examples. His test consists of multiple choce and a knowledge probe. Hes also very charisma and sexy. I would def take him again!
Oh my gosh what can I say about Professor except he wonderful.If you do not learn it is only,because YOU chose not to.He is one of the best college professor I have ever come across.His teaching skills are great,and he has this sence of humor that is wonderful and refreshing that makes you enjoy his class even more.Highly suggest his class.
TEACHER IS INTERESTING, VERRY SERIOUS ABOUT BIOLOGY. IF YOU TAKE HIS CLASS. DO NOT SLOUCH IN CLASSWORK OR ON YOUR READING AND TRY TO READ AHEAD IF YOU CAN.GOOD LUCK!
Fantastic Professor!! This was my 3rd time taking this class and I wish I had him 1st. He really knows this subject and makes sure you have what you need to do well. Study sheets for lab which was a blessing for me. I Love this Professor and was praying he taught 110 this semester. Unfortunately not.
He's a great professor! He's easy if you pay attention. He loves teahing and it is his sense of humor that helped me. Also, he tries to relate biology to real life. I highly recommend him to everyine. Take him and you'll see what I mean. He's one of my best professors. I am not good at biology and I still passed with an A.
Funny, a good teacher, must study to pass, covers all content before test, follows study guides, gives handouts, finels were alot but you new exactly what to study wonderful teacher!!! TAKE HIM.
Take him and take good note you will get an ''A''he is good
He is awesome!!! You do have to study to pass. Take alot of note! He is funny and HOT!!! would love to take him again.
BEST TEACHER EVERRR !!! && he's sexxxxyyyyy.
Come on people!! My favorite professor of all time. He is the best. He is funny and makes you want to learn. He is not bad to look at either. I could do without his knowledge probe but other than that my favorite class. I recommend him to everybody.
Professor Liljedahl is a great professor. He actually teaches the material, and makes it easy to understand. Study for his tests and take notes. You will get an A.
Sexy!
Prodessor L is a good teacher. Teaches straight from class notes and a study guide he provides you at the start of class. If provides you with his number and email, however, save your time and energy, he never responds. Somewhat rude and inconsiderate.
Good teacher..lacks communication skills. Says he will email you information but never does. Says email him anytime but never responds..thinks he's above you.Reminds you constantly that HE is a professor. If you need to contact him outside of school hours...forget it! He ignores you. Stay clear of him, take profesor Dino Fiabane way better!
Professor Liljedahl is a great teacher, but as far as being considerate he's the worst(will not respond to e-mails so don't bother) He gives good notes and test tips. If you really want to learn Bio you should take take him. Overall his teaching Bio "priceless" Communication/Consideration skills, "horrible"
Professor Liljedahl is a great biology teacher...knows his stuff. He enjoys his little jokes here and there. At times comes off arrogant and rude. For the next six weeks you don't have a name...you all are now 'people'and he is the PROFESSOR. Forget about emailing him...he doesn't respond. If you're ok with the above, go ahead and take him
I got stuck with this guy twice. He's def prejudice. Talks down to people. what a lonely miserable person. Thank god he's not qualified to teach Bio 110. I never have to see this guy again
Prof Liljedahl doesn't like to teach. He isn't very interested in you as a student...he could care less is you try hard or not. Is never available for you. He's a control freak. If he says I'll email you don't hold your breath and don't send him emails..he'll ignore you. Out of 24 people maybe 3 liked him. Avoid him if possible
This guy is High-larious, Very fast paced, would enjoy taking his class again. Sorry he wasn't teaching summer II bio 110. Demanding but Straightforward.
He is a good professor who uses he personality as well as his knowledge to keep us interested in the work.
Keeps you going with his sarcasm and makes course interesting with his babbling.
He is an excellent professor, I like him for the jokes that he inject into his lectures. And he seem to want everyone to pass his class. He gets an A+ from me.
Professor Liljedahl is a great teacher. I had him for Summer I (6 week class)and still managed a B with-out much effort. He's straight foward and provides a great study guide. The people who are neg on here prob didn't try or show up! Besides being a great teacher, he's hot
Best Professor I ever had. He prepared the best outline for a textbook that I have ever seen. Gives funny stories to explain course material. He's not hard, but the material can be if you don't study. He's also nice to look at. looks like Richard Gere with glasses.
Great teacher. Very helpful. Tests are fair and curved. I recommend him.
If you want to learn biology Please do not take his class! He is all over the place!
He's OK. Tests are curved but extremely hard. Without the curve you're not passing. he jumps from one place to the next causing confusion. No sure that I would take another class of his.
At times very confusing...tests are extremely hard. But he curves. He has a great sense of humor. However, due to being disorganized and his outrageous tests-I would not reccomend.
"He does not look like Richard Greer". Test are hard and you need the curve. I really thought he was a good teacher and cared about those who cared about the class. Available via email/office hrs for help.Suggest you take his class (must attend) and please read the text book along with his book.I would take him for 110

Fair, weird, funny, interesting & sexy...for Biology professor. Suggestions; FOCUS ON STUDYING & MEMORIZING HIS OUTLINE, you may do better on HIS lecture test. Also, come to every class & lab. For the 109 lab exams, take good notes on all labs (especially that 1st sugar lab; a significant part of exam). Study those cell slide often.
First of all he's hotter than Richard Gere! Second,this may be the best class you ever take! So great I thought of switching my major to biology (seriously.) Just attend every class, PAY ATTENTION, read the book..it is school,after all. You will learn so much and have so much fun, I guaranteed!! An Awesome Professor and great guy!!!
He is well prepare for his class and take no nonsense.
Prof. Liljedahl WOW! Excellent instructor. Your sure to learn A&P and remember that two year olds don't like to share (NO) Polar/Non Polar bond. You'll wish he can be your teacher for all your other classes. He definitely loves teaching. Just wear closed shoes to lab or you'll get kicked out.
This prof is one of the best profs i've ever seen he really makes interesred in bio i look forward to have him in Bio 109.
Great Professor! Very clear with material & very interactive to help you understand the info.
He is by far the best professor I have had at CCP. He is knowledlegable, passionate and clever. ... "people.. you know you should be writing this**** down" , may come at a time when you were just about to stress over new material presented and his humor helped you though it. He was incredible and informative.
take him. excellent. don't need book. hilarious. curves test.
Excellent teacher! I really enjoyed the class. He's very funny. It's very clear what you should study for the tests and if you actually do this (I made notecards) you will most likely do well. I cracked my textbook only to clarify material for studying for tests.
The most clever and hilarious teacher at CCP. Very engaging. Made me look forward to going to class. Highly highly recommended!
Great professor..however don't take this class unless you absolutely have no life. You will need to study 24/7 because the test are EXTREMELY hard. Overall, I did well in his class but I had to dedicate the majority of my time to this one class
AWESOME teacher!!!
Simply Fab-u-lous! Not bad on the eyes.
best prof. He was beyond clear in his expectations and didn't try to fool you on tests. Gave amazing outline and followed it. Very funny-"come on people" and talking about his aunt was hilarious. I wish I took him for 110. I got an A in his class. Study and listen and you'll be fine!
Very interesting. Gives a great outline. alot to study but makes class interesting and keeps the information simple. Took him in the summer and received an A. What he went over in class and what was in the notes is whats on the test. Dress appropriate for Lab or points will be taken from you grade. Very professional and helpful.
Great teacher!!!
I am not a BIO fan, but Prof L made this class so much fun. I found it hard not to pay attention. I didn't do as well as I could have but that was for personal reasons. If you put in the effort, you will do well in this class. FOLLOW ALL THE RULES!!
Loved this class! Professor made class Fun and interesting! He answered any questions we had, knew us all by our first name and our personalities.He gives an outline, and prepares you for his tests. Easy A. And he is Hot in a Richard Gere way!!.
What a refreshing professor! If you want someone who can bring anatomy & physiology to life then take him! It was a pleasure and I've learned so much from the class lectures & lab. Very straight forward and don't believe when you read that he isn't always available outside of class because that's definetly not true..emails quick and cares.
Great professor overall. Do not eat drink or chew gum in lab!!! He's extremely clear in relating material so that you understand the termanology. He is constantly adding jokes and scenarios to keep up interest. Everything he covers in the classroom will be on the test and he constanly recites important information... He is awesome!
He actually makes this class interesting for me. His jokes may be a little bad, but they definitely make the class more enjoyable. He teaches in a very clear, easy to remember manner and I find myself more interested in biology than I was prior to taking this class.
Loved Liljehahl! Very clear lectures, made the class enjoyable with his jokes. Would definitely take him again.
I would recommend him to anyone> I don't even like biology and I was so excited to attend this class everyday. This professor clearly loves teaching and he SUPER FUNNY REALLY. He grades on a curve. I got an A in this class. He gives all the tools to succed you just have to utlize them
AMAZING! I would reccomend him to everyone. he makes the subjects extremely interesting and is willing to have fun. he has a great sense of humor. tests were difficult if you don't study and labs were graded tough! but his class was so enjoyable it was worth it!
Wodnerful! He knows his stuff and he knows how to lecture well. His tests are quite difficult if you don't study, it always apply to what we learn in class, so fair enough! I like that he's humorous because he keeps you interested. He's really good at explaining class notes and very fair. He makes sure that you know what to study for the exams.
Omg..he is the besr ever.He luvs teaching he explains well and he keeps the class upbeat..his test Q'S can be a bit confusing and he says himself but as long as you take notes and study u shld be fine and dont take his jokes personal..Good luck:-)
His voice is great. Tests on what he teaches. Apparently, I didn't remember a lot after I finished his class but that's because it was in the summer (1.5 months or so). Wish I took him during a longer semester. But he's easy if you ACTUALLY study. if you wont study, dont bother going to college.
Great teacher. He hands out a lecture book & lectures straight from that book. Test are only on what he goes over in class. If you study, you'll be fine.
He is a great teacher but your grade will be based on test. He does not give extra credit or homework so if you are not a good test taker this is not the class for you. Be prepared to study!!
Don't waste your money on the text book. You won't really use it. If you can find a recent version on abe books. His class is great and an easy A. If you show up and pay attention you can do really well in the class.
He's such a great teacher, so freaking funny and he keeps things interesting. Make sure you study a lot though because his tests are pretty hard and he don't give extra credits. He's also frank about what's going in the exams so pay attention and write tons of notes! Didn't do as well but its because i didn't work as hard. But he's awesome!
He is by far my favorite teacher! Not only is he hilarious but he does his best to make the information stick in your head. He outlines the entire textbook and goes over everything he's putting on the test. If I could, I'd take him over and over again.
Prof. was great. He really makes the class interesting and has a funny point of view about everything. If you need a teacher that makes real life examples out of what is being taught then this is your guy.Tests are tricky but he always puts an example that is easy to remember so PAY ATTENTION!
He is hilarious! Great lectures. Always keeps you interested, even though he uses every second of that 2 hour long class! The only complaint would be that he gives no homework or assignments, just 7 exams. Might be good for some, but it's very easy to have your grade slip from one bad exam. But it's college, you'll adjust. Highly recommend.
Best Teacher Ever!! He is soo funny! I took the class this past summer 1. Even though it was REALLY fast the class was great. He made learning a lot of fun. But you do have to study. I wish I can take him for 110 but he said he was going on sabbatical.
best and funniest professor at ccp. bio 110 cant be any easier than his class. don't need text book. 4 exams and final.2 lab exams. no homework and lab reports. good luck. thank you prof. lil-yah-doll
he is a great teacher. always has the class laughing. he makes jokes all the time. he always keeps class interesting and he explains a lot sometimes too much, but it is helpful. he talks semi fast which makes it hard to keep up sometimes. the tests are pretty hard so make sure you read and study. i would take him for every science class if i could!
Hilarious. Understands the material at an in-depth level and explains it to you in a way you will remember. Don't need textbook, but you need lab manual (sold together, unfortunately). Gives you pre-made notes, which are amazing. No homework or lab reports, just lecturelab exams, and he tells you exactly what you need to know. Take him!
Great guy. Don't give to many test in the summers makes it kinda hard to get an A.. But you have to really listen to lecture record if you can on your phone. Cause he talks really fast. Test are what he lectures on only which is really great! I got a B. Wanted an A but hey!
Professor Liljedahl is one of the best professors I have ever had! He knows his stuff, and he knows how to teach it. His test are tough, you really have to study, but it is worth it because you will know the material. He makes the class fun and interesting. You can tell he likes teaching and it shows. Take him If you can!!
Liljedahl was one of the best profs I've ever had. He is the ONLY one you want for 109. It's such a shame he doesn't regularly teach 110, bc I would have taken him again in a heartbeat. Gives you pre-made notes and tell you EXACTLY what will be on exams. Lectures are very clear and answers all questions thoroughly. Don't take anyone else!!!
Prof. Liljedahl is very knowledgable and hilarious! He provided us with outline notes of his lectures. He reviewed before exams what topics he expect us to know. Exams consist of multiple choice only; however, there were about 75-90 questions each exam. There was lab midterm & lab final; no extra worksheets. Study and an A is very attainable!
I took Prof Liljedahl for Summer 12015. Very good teacher I must say he is very, very big on the chemistry side of AP throughout the entire class. I passed I now know more from him than when I took it by another teacher. He don't give extra credit at all so pass all test with a B and up from the start and you will get a good grade.
Professor Liljedahl is a great professor, I have taken two classes with him and passed with A. As long as you pay attention to his lecture and follow the notes he provides you do great. His test are all multiple choice and the final comes straight from the test.
He is very good at lecture, but if you are expecting homework to help you under the concept their isn't any. So if you bomb the test you have nothing to help your grade, he doesn't go over anything, no review sheet for test. Their isn't extra credit or anything. therefore you have to study on your own.
Prof. Liljedahl is great. He is a great lecturer and really wants you to succeed. He curves exams heavily. He provides a guide with everything you need to know and whatever is in the guide is far game for the exams. 4 lecture exams, 2 lab exams, 1 final. In the end, you have to take the time to study the material. Definitely take him if you can!
Professor Karl is really funny with his lecture, I enjoy his class and he is always on time. Tests you get back really quick, sometime he will mimic stuffs to give us best description about the human body. I would definitely take this professor again. He made Anatomy really easy not too hard. As long as you read his pre notes, and lecture notes.
He was amazing! I learned so much in his class! He is hilarious too! Don't believe when people say - "His tests are hard" Not true at all, plus he forms them from his study guide. Like come on, who does that ? To be honest, if you didn't study - you shouldn't expect a good grade ... Study like you mean it and do it on the regular basics!
Bar none the best professor I have ever had. He knows his stuff and is extremely knowledgeable. His tests are not hard, but you must study. All of his test questions are based on his power point slides. I never once read the textbook or used the lab manual. He generously curves and that is an understatement. Take him!
He is a fair professor
Karl is an enthusiastic and efficient professor. I have learned so much through his courses, but this does by no means make it an easy A. You have to really study for it. If you just sit in class and listen, you aren't doing your share, and the exams will wreck you. He does curve generously though. Take him if you actually want to learn.
I was pretty nervous to take Biology, but thank god for Professor Liljedahl. He made lectures interesting and enjoyable. I would recommend everyone to take him. There was a lot of information covered in this course, but as long as you study you will be fine!
Liljedahl is the best. As he said in the very beginning of the semester : "You think you'll get an easy A in this class? Well guess not, you have to learn people". I was scared when I took him in the beginning of the semester because there are only 4 exams and a final but wohaa I actually learned something from him class and passed with success!!
Take him!! You will not regret it. No homework based grades on the test. If he sees the lowest grade, he will curve the test depends on the lowest grade. He specifically will tell what will be on the test. He is funny! gives out a study guide for lab midterm and finals. If I had a chance to take him I would take him again.
Prof Liljedahl is one of the best professors I have ever had in college. He wants you to understand what he is teaching you and trust me, it will go a long way because if you need to take this class chances are you are in some sort of medical field career. His labs were also awesome and extremely informative. I've learned so much from him!
Prof L is an amazing Biology teacher. Very clear and understandable. His labs need to be written in detail, but just follow the directions and you'll pass. The best thing about this teacher is that he gives you a notebook before the course starts with all of the topics he teaches so you don't need to buy a textbook. 4 exams, a final and no midterm.
He's a really great teacher - obviously knows what he's talking about and does a great job making the information easier to remember. ABSOLUTELY TAKE HIS CLASS. He provides notes that are easy to understand, you don't need to use the book, but it will help if you do! Fair grading (he curves all the tests).
Gives you his version of the textbook via notebook. Totally jerked our class towards the end of semester. Only taught and tested us on chapters 1-4 and 11-15. None of which are on the Departmental Final except chapters 1-3. Departmental Final consisted of chapters 1-10!!! DOES NOT GIVE EXTRA CREDIT!!! 6 EXAMS PLUS FINAL FROM DEPARTMENT.
Very smart man. You will learn even if you don't want to. Gives too many exams. 4 lectures, Lab midterm and lab final and departmental exam. Not too bad as long as you memeorize his book. Does NOT prepare you for departmental final!!!! DO NOT MISS A CLASS!!!!! DO NOT GO TO HIS OFFICE OR ASK QUESTIONS, GETS IRRITATED!!!
Professor Karl is an amazing professor, his exams are from the material he covers in class; however, his exams are NOT easy!! In general, students who paid attention in class and studied hard were absolutely satisfied with Professor. Karl. I am willing to take him again for Bio 110.
Currently in his class! I must say it's by far the hardest class ever, his class is basically self taught. He just reviews his own book he produces. Not many details, jumps around a lot! His quizzes doesn't reflect the test. He is a nice man but he def needs better teaching skills!
This man is hilarious if you like sarcastic, dry humor. He provides you with a booklet of notes that you can add additional notes to. Don't miss class because he adds info that will be on the exam but aren't in the booklet. He is very straight forward and doesn't mess around. Doesn't play tricks. Know your stuff and you will pass. Make flash cards.
Professor Liljedahl is an amazing teacher. He's funny and compassionate because he does everything he can to get you to pass the class. And he know what he is talking about about. The test are hard especially if you don't study. He also grade on a curve. But you really have to study like everyday to really know the material.
Prof Liljedahl is by far one of the best in the bio department at CCP. Anyone who says anything short of it is just blaming the man for their own lack of paying attention or working hard. Study the book he gives you and what he tells you exactly to know before the test and you'll pass. I got a 94 in his class. Easy A
He's great. He keeps the class interesting and he loves his job. The class is tough, definitely not an easy A. There are 4 Exams, Lab and Lecture midterm and final and a departmental final. There is no extra credit. Read the textbook. STUDY, STUDY, STUDY!
His teaching style was memorable, but don't take his class if you are easily offended. His sequencing was very jumbled and was not detailed properly in the syllabus. He does explain well and give chapter reviews, but the class requires daily studying. He does not respond to emails. No homework, only grades by tests on a curve. Could've been better.
Such a fun professor, really makes the material interesting and his passion for the subject is obvious. Your whole grade is the tests, but they are pretty straightforward. My only complaint is that he doesn't shut down off topic questions, which led to us not getting through all of the material.
Professor liljedahl was amazing. I was so concerned about A&P because its hard, but he made the material fun and understandable. His way of teaching is designed to help you remember. His tests are difficult, but he is fair and curves when and where necessary. Flash cards and use the notes he provides. Hes also hilarious.
Currently taking him during COVID-19 online classes. And he literally responds to NONE of the emails. He uploaded homework the first week of class when our books werent available and still expected us to be able to complete the work, without an extension. Hes very inaccessible. Honestly its quite annoying and a waste of time.
I really liked Professor Liljedahl but would not recommend taking his Anatomy class online. He just uploads textbook Power Points every week and holds office hours. There are no posted lectures to watch or reference. Having an instructor actually explain these concepts and create a memorable story is so critical in this class and is so hard without
