Lisa is a GREAT teacher! She makes class fun and interesting. I would recommend her to anyone!

Hard class but this should be expected. A lot of work and memorization but it's by no means unmanageable. A lot of studying is required but she is very helpful in giving notes. Overall a good teacher...very nice with a good sense of humor.

Tough class but in following classes you will be way ahead. damm hot to

Very perky, you won't fall asleep

very good class. Interesting. Had study guides made for us. Able to use our own personal notes for the quizzes. I would definitely take her class again.

Lisa Leden is a great teacher. Her daily quizzes keep you on track and her exams cover what are in the notes. If you study and keep on track with her lab schedule you will learn and excel. There are many different teachers at RVC. If you need basic science credits, take an easy teacher and leave this one to the serious students.

Lisa is a great teacher. She definately knows her A&P! Her daily quizzes are easy points. Her lecture exams cover 3-4 chapters but are strictly from notes. You're able to print out the outline for lecture ahead of time to look at during the lecture! Helped me follow her better. Lab tests are hard! Lots of points in the class to earn which helps!!

all of you that say she is a bad teacher don’t know what your talking about i feel she is the best Science teach I have had since middle school!! She brakes thing downs so you get the basics you need in other classes! The daily quizzes help you gain points other then just having test scores

Lisa is young. & at times VERY sarcastic, but she definitely knows her stuff! There are daily quizzes (10 pts each, with extra credit) Homework for each chapter (10 pts each) & 4-5 100pt tests. She uses power point, and I found that you HAD to read the book to be sucessful. At first I hated the quizzes, but found them to be quite helpful!

Love, love, love her! Hard class but I learned alot that helped in succeeding classes. I found her to be very helpful (when asked) and made class interesting. Plenty of opportunity to earn points in class. Alot of material to cover and tests were not easy, but she was an excellent educator. She definitely knows her subject!

Leden Is a great teacher! I love the way she teaches the class..the powerpoints make everything so much easier to understand...and she doesnt act like she is a recorded she actually makes lectures interesting! Great Bio teacher..Good Teacher =]

Easy to understand, uses power points all the time. Lab time is always independent which can make it difficult. She give a quiz every single class!

OK, I've only had two teachers at RVC, but I LOVED her. She's funny and makes class interesting, but it is pretty demanding...easy work, but quizzes everyday, homework once a chapter, and tests over each three... final wasn't cumulative, though, which was fantastic. Mrs. Leden was awesome.

Super nice... and funny. she relates everything in a manner that you can understand it. she lectures with powerpoint and doesn't talk too fast

good teaching skills, pretty good lecture notes provided.

Awesome teacher. I have learned so much and plan on taking her for every science course I need. There are quizzes every day, homework over each chapter and the exams include three chapters, but the final is cumulative and you can drop a test. I highly recommend her to anyone wanting to learn biology.

TOP NOTCH!!! She cares more than others think is wise. I would recommend her for any class at RVC. She is not easy, and you will have to earn your grade but she will help you every step of the way. Every school beyond RVC will EXPECT that you know what she is teaching so take advantage of someone that will help you get it!

WOW! she was awesome. I took the class online and finished with an easy A. Do the discussions & reflections. They may seem stupid but are easy and add up. The homework was right out of the book & there were no tests except the final.She has podcasts for her online students which are really helpful.She's a great great teacher & its an easy class =)

Understand before you take this class that by the level of the class and nature of the material, THERE IS NO EASY "A"!!! Once that's said, she gives you everything you need; info, help, structure. You provide the discipline, and you'll be well prepared for dental hygiene or nursing school.

Although I got a C in her class, it wasn't because of her. If I would have paid more attention and spent more time studying, I would have gotten a better grade. She is a great professor and I would recommend her. ANd she's pretty and hilarious.

Lisa is an extremely helpful prof. I got a B in both 281 and 282. If i studied to more often they defintely would have been A's. Your grade requires work in the class but she gives you everything u need to make your grade whatever you want it to be!!! LOVE HER!

She is an amazing professor! She will help you if you just ask. She explains everything so that it is simple and she makes lecture interesting! I definitely recommend her and will take her again for A&P!

Just took her Bio100 online course this summer. In my opinion the class was super easy. Just keep on top of the assignments. There is only one required campus visit for the final and most of the points you accumulate are from homework (which she does NOT grade), but grades only for completion! Easy, easy A if you do all the assignments.

This is the first internet class I have taken. I chose BIO because I already knew quite a bit about it and thought it would be a good starting point to see if I like internet classes. Leden is very organized and answered my questions fairly quickly. I liked the way the course was set up. Not a simple class, I still learned something from it!

fill in notes on power point lectures. you know what to expect. lots to learn and study. but she gives you everything you need to know and is willing to help.

This class can be really easy all you have to do is show up everyday! she gives you a quiz each day only 5 questions (don't worry) about the lecture prior to the class, you fill in the blanks on power points and really thats all her tests are based on (your notes). If you don't understand something she will help you figure it out.

Very helpful!!

this class is very easy, you have a short quiz every other class day, she drops your lowest quiz and test,

I will be the first to admit that I hate Biology and so when I took it at RVC i failed and then I took it online and wow what a difference I have a 93% and all that i have left is the final. Take her online bio trust me!!!!!!

She is a great teacher easy to understand and follow, if you take the time to show up to class fill in the note packets and do your homework. It is college and I worked full time while taking a full 16 CH semester and still got an A in her class and the others.It takes time and effort to do it though.

I absolutely loved her! It is a very challenging class and you have to spend a lot of time studying, but if you pay attention and stay within the time limits of the syllabus, you shouldn't have any problem. Her lecture exams are straight from her notes. Take her!

Best Bio Class thus far. She makes the class interesting during her lectures, all of them are posted on Itunes which helps if you miss a class. The tests are all multiple choice and requires a lot of memorization. She is a terrific teacher.

Best Bio Teacher at RVC. Her class is difficult only to those who do not read and study for her exams. I could listen to her lectures all day long. She makes each part of the note taking process as easy as she can by posting fill in the blank notes to download and then also adding her lectures to itunes. A+++ Teacher!

Best biology teacher at RVC

Love this professor. I am impressed with her knowledge and passion for what she does. She is always energetic, laid back and always willing to help!

This teacher has a passion for what she is teaching which always makes it easier to listen to. Her homework and tests are fair. She makes note taking easy and her tests are right off of the notes in class. While she does go fast if you don't understand something she will stop and go in depth until you get it. I will take her again!

She is a super fair teacher and i agree with others when they say she has a passion for what she teaches. She really wants people to understand the material she's covering and is always willing to help. I really wish i could take her again!

Great teacher! Just study the notes and you'll do fine on the lecture exams. Lab can sometimes be vague but she is always willing to help of you don't understand something.

I had Leden for both BIO 281 and 282. Come on, Anatomy in itself is a hard class, but if you study the note packets, you'll do great! She is always there to help so if you have questions, JUST ASK. She will not send you away if you don't understand. Changed the "lab book" to her own layout and it was SO MUCH EASIER to understand. She's very fair.

she has hard test but is really fun in class. keeps your attention well. i like her alot but i dont know if i would take her again because i didnt do good on test. she is helpful and outgoing with tons of enery that can be contagious sometimes.

These are very hard classes. Lisa gives all expectations up front, is interesting during lecture, and is VERY helpful. She is an amazing teacher and she really knows the material. Make sure you study and are able to apply the information.

Def a keeper! She's friendly, but not too friendly, always keeps class on track & will help if you're showing you're dedicated to learning. Not too hard on materials & wants to see you do well. Overall very happy I took her classes.

Professor Leden's lectures are very informative. She also has a kind of morbid sense of humor. "If your sodium potassium pumps don't work, you're going to die". "If your proteins denature, you're going to die". Her class made me want to remember to take my daily multivitamin...

Lecture-based exams. Research papers with abstracts cut out that she nit-picks about, despite no pre-req for stats or research methods course (unethical). Labs based on course books, in class materials, and some abstraction of learned anatomy. Won't teach you how to study for the course (unethical). Study as well as you can for each lab. She's hot

Dr. Leden has an absolutely hilarious sense of humor. Class flies by while she lectures. As long as you pay attention in class and take notes you will do fine on the tests. She is also always willing to meet with anyone struggling with material. She truly wants to see her students excel and LEARN.

Be prepared to study; she's super tough on grading. She expects you to actually apply information. She hates cell phones, and will kick you out if you're caught using it while in class. Don't eat in class 'cause she thinks it's gross--even though the cadavers are in a different area. Just not what I was expecting, and I'm an A student.

She is a great teacher!!! The subject matter is hard and she won't take it easy on you, which is a good thing because this is not a subject you want just to be handed an A. Make flash cards and study the questions at the end of the chapter! Find or form a study group off the bat and you will ace every test!

Leden's class was not a very difficult class. However, if you planned on simply showing up and passing, good luck. You must actually do you work if you want to receive a good grade (which is expected out of any class). The lecturing is very helpful, however, studying out of the book helps greatly. If you do all your homework, it's not hard to pass.

She was a delight to have and I feel blessed to have taken someone who pushed me to work and not take the easy road. All the Questions at the end of each chapter should be looked at and reviewed with her during office hours, you will pass all of her tests and learn that way.

If you are thinking about taking BIO-100 online DON'T. There is very little communication with the online class. Everything is done online except the midterm and final which were done on campus. The average our class was a 58%. I did go to her for help and she was VERY nice, but online classes are hard.

Good teacher. Have to know the material well for the tests. Would take her again. Shes funny and keeps it interesting. She really dumbs it down for you to understand.

She is the best!! She jokes around and keeps it interesting!! Homework for every chapter, quizes once a week, 5 exams, 1 cumulative final! She will drop your lowest 2 homework scores, lowest 2 quiz scores, lowest 1 test score (not final). Extra credit offered on every quiz and test! The class is very difficult material wise so make sure to STUDY!!

Great Teacher! Tests are very challenging. Quizes every week but on every quiz there are extra credit questions! Drops 2 quizes and 1 Test. If you ever have question send her an email or ask her during office hours and she will always help you out. Just be sure to take notes and listen or it will be a difficult semester for you.

Awesome teacher! she is very clear on what she wants I would take her class again anytime

she really wants you to understand biology, it is not an easy class and yes you will spend a lot of time on the computer. read,read,read and you will do great.

Leden is the best bio professor I've had. Bio is a hard class in general, but if you really take time to study, do her study guides, and look over your quizzes, there's no reason you shouldn't get an A. There's TONS of extra credit opportunities on quizzes and tests. Blood donation also. By far my favorite professor at RVC.

Leden is a good professor who cares about her students success. These two classes are definitely difficult and require massive amounts of self discipline and studying. Read the book and study everyday and you will do well. I learned so much!

Leden is an amazing teacher! She definitely makes you work hard for your grade, but in the end (if you worked hard) you will do well in the class. There are daily quizzes that are given to make sure you keep up with the material and she is always willing to help outside of class as well. She is very nice and is a fair teacher!

Lisa has been one of my favorite teachers. She always makes relatable jokes or stories to help you understand and remember the material. The exams can be difficult, but they are directly from the notes and if you actually take the time and review they are fairly easy. I would recommend her to anyone!

Professor Leden wasnt bad. I took the course online and there was homework due every other week on two chapters. There were 8 modules total, 2 chapters each. At the end of each module there is a quiz on eagle. If you listen to her recorded lectures, youll do fine on the quizzes. There are 3 test in the semester, all 100 points each. Take online.

Leden is an awesome professor. She explains her lectures thoroughly and tells you her expectations. She makes lectures interesting and is more than willing to help you at any time!

She is an amazing professor, she knows what she's talking about and gives you a sheet on how to pass. The reading in the textbook isn't required, but I highly recommend it. You need to study a lot for this class to pass, but she knows it's a difficult class and is there to help. Quizzes almost daily, except on test days. Stay for lab time always!

Bio100 is very entertaining subject. The class is about the human. Its great subject to understand who we are. The professor is awesome. She is very very good at her work.

Loved this class and I'm not even good as science, as long as you study a bit you'll be fine. The quizzes are simple and right off the lecture and there's extra credit on each one. You don't need the book but it's super helpful and so are the study questions she posts.

Her lectures were thorough and helpful. There were a few paper assignments that she graded really difficultly. Quizzes everyday - but they were only 6 questions covering the previous class session's material (either lecture or lab). She offers so much extra credit. I would definitely recommend her for A&P!

Seriously, such an amazing professor. This class takes a lot of self discipline but if you take the time to really understand and memorize content for her exams, you'll do great! All of the content for lectures is very straight forward, but there is a lot of content. Tons of opportunity for extra credit too! Would definitely recommend her for A&P.

Professor Leden is probably the best professor I've had. She is great at lecture and her expectations for her students are very clear. There's lots of opportunities for extra credit. She understands that this class contains a large amount of hard information, and she does what she can to accommodate to that. Not bad if you study and come to class.

Despite the difficulty of the class, Dr. Leden is my favorite professor I've ever had. She rarely assigns homework outside of the usual studying for her daily quizzes, which are only 5 questions plus a chance for extra credit. Attendance is crucial if you want to do well, and you will need to be willing to put in the extra time to study everyday.

Its definitely a tough class, but she makes it easier and provides everything you need to know on her PowerPoints.

Lisa is my all-time favorite professor. Her course is difficult, but Anatomy & Physiology is just a difficult course no matter where you take it. Her teaching style is very engaging, and she provides so many resources for success.

I LOVE Leden. Yes, the class is difficult, but if you are a good student and have previously done well, you should be fine. Put the work in, always show up to lecture (you can NOT miss lectures), and use the resources. She offers a good amount of extra credit, but you have to earn it. The tests are in depth, but there are study resources- use them.

Leden's class is tough, but doable if you put in the work. Attend every lecture, use the provided resources, and leverage tools like unstuck study for efficient study prep. The exams are challenging, but with dedication, you can succeed.
