Very good instructor, once you get over her accent and her different teaching methods. I would deffinatly reccommend that you actually attend her class she adds things that aren't outlined, and she sometimes gives HUGE hints to whats on the test

loved her!! helpful, explains things well, caring, helps you learn, not memorize, makes it fun and interesting. I enjoyed showing up for her classes. Best Biology teacher I've had!!

Read the coursepack and the text and you'll do fine. Use the CD-rom that comes with the text for online tests/review - HUGE help. She runs a self-directed class - in other words, if you need help ASK!

BEST teacher ever...actually enjoys teaching. Very helpful and always gives hints! Also explains everything in good detail so that you actually understand the concepts, also a great help in the lab! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK =)

Extremely informative. Very clear, answers all questions and sticks to related material and time limits. Quite possibly the best teacher in the school for this field.

Absolutely the best biology teacher I have ever had. She's smart, interesting, funny, and meticulous, just the way a biology teacher should be.

Lynette is one of the best biology teachers I've had. She is very helpful. Totally kept her students interested in the topics at hand. Totally recommend her to other students.

really nice and really helpfull. Her tests are pretty fare in that you have to study to pass them... but they are not impossible.

she is so helpful and her class is very academic

she is tough, but fair. She prepares you for the mid-term and finals. Always ask her if you do not understand something because this is the instructor that explains everything so clearly that even my children would understand. You may need to brush up on your spelling because she will take marks off. If your interested in learning this is definitel

Great Prof! She's easy as long as you keep up with the work. Does a good job preparing you for the mid-term / final. Definately the best teacher for biology!

I took a previous course with Lynette and would only take 1110 with her. Her lectures are clear and informative. She provides relevant examples that clarify the content. Not an exceptionally exciting course (but a pre-req for 1210) but she makes the learning enjoyable. Highly recommended.

Lynette is an excellent teacher.She is very approachable, so ask questions if you don't understand, she will clarify it so anyone will understand.You will do well if you do the recommended readings and study for the weekly quizzes, dont't wait for the for the midterm or final, and spelling does count.I would highy recommend her as a teacher!

I LOVE Lynnette...

Dr. L is a great prof. She is soo good. NOTES are great. Very helpful. Spends time to go over everything. Lays everything out for you. Lab exam was pretty****though. think the avg was 50%

Smart, interesting, and enthusiastic about what she teaches. Not really understanding of ways people learn other than to what she teaches (i.e. don't ask for her notes, she thinks you learn by writing...I learn by listening & seeing). She moves VERY fast through material, so keep up. Maybe take a tape/digital recorder to go back to lectures later.

Very very very clear on what she asks of you. If you do bad in this course you only have yourself to blame, shes straight to the point, gives you review sheets weekly (which help out tons), points out what is potentially on the tests, very helpful and good sense of humor. Course load is tough, but she makes it interesting.

An excellent teacher! I never missed a single class, she makes everyday exciting to sit and listen to her lecture. She speaks thorough and clear, provides notes, and makes the textbook useful (not just the course manual). I commend her for being an excellent teacher and making this class worthwhile.

She is the most amazing professor I have ever had! She is extremely helpful and there is just something about her teaching style that makes it stick. She will clarify things as much as possible and gives weekly reviews that are VERY helpful. Make sure you do them because it really helps with studying. Weekly quizzes that let you know where you stand in the class are also very helpful. Anyone who does bad in this class can only blame themselves for not studying hard and focusing. You DO NOT need a Biology background to do well in this class. The only thing I didn't like is that the midterm and final are written by all the profs and not just her so there was just something about them that didn't fit with how she taught. I was scared to take this class but it ended up being my favourite class all semester!

the course is a bit of everything and concise... :( She is good prof, and seems to like what she is doing:) knowledgeable and encouraging ... although the course is quite demanding, but comprehensible, previous knowledge rather preferred, time is an issue recommended;)

Very informative, interesting teacher. Obviously likes to teach and cares whether you learn or not. Study weekly, the course covers a lot, and she quizzes each week which helps solidify the material. Never makes anyone feel foolish for not understanding. Do not have to have a background in Biol. but it would help. Recommend her highly!

Definatly one of my favourit profs so far. Explains everything clearly, is extremely helpful, and is super nice. She's not really a hard marker, but she does expect alot of detail in written answers. My ONLY complaint is her pronounciation of evolution.

she is a pretty cute good teacher, she doesn't make you feel like a moron like lucia for not knowing an answer shes not bad for her 1st cell bio class

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!!! Take a class with her!!! I hate Biology and science in general (I'm an English major, but this course was required for me) and this class was actually enjoyable! Lynette is extremely passionate about her field and makes sure that everyone understands what she is teaching. AWESOME INSTRUCTOR!! Thank you Lynette! :)

REALLY HARD. Amazing teacher, just very hard classes. There is no cutting corners in her classes. She is intimidating at first but very nice when you get to know her.

Lynette is a very nice lady who care a great deal about teaching and she REALLY knows her stuff. I feel bad because I wish I had put more effort into her class because the one thing is: she is a demanding marker which makes it kinda tough considering how much material is covered. You must keep up with all the material and review the course manual.

Dr. Sigola is an awesome instructor. She is very clear and concise and has an extremely effective teaching method. NOT a class for slackers or those who think they can get by without studying. It won't happen.

On time and organized. She knows her stuff and expects others to know it as well. Hard marker. That being said, I was very well prepared for 1210. If you want to learn, take bio with Lynette. If you want an A with her, you have to work for it.

You have to work hard but a good grade will have never felt so well deserved. Forces you to use proper study habits to do well. Wants you to excel! She won't give you the answer outright for questions. No easy A. I am the type to usually take the easiest prof but I am so glad I took her. Completely new outlook. THANK YOU LYNETTE

Very lovely person, but don't mess around in her class or you'll get the death glare. Her lectures are very useful and organized, make sure you do the reading because a lot of the test questions are on the info you'll find there. Don't expect your GPA to go up if you take her class, but do expect to learn a lot.

Lynette is such an awesome instructor. I find her very helpful. She is very knowledgeable. You really need to do more than just memorizing the facts. You have to understand and be able to apply your knowledge in-depth. You also have to remember that this course may be tough because this is where and when you build your basic knowledge of biology.

Lynette is a very strict marker, however this makes you better prepared for the final exams. One really nice thing about Lynette is she will actually give feedback on the weekly tests which is rather useful. Not an easy A, but can definitely achieve a good mark with proper studying habits.

2321 is just a really hard. Average of the midterm was 51%. The thing is, I dont think it is her fault that the average was really low. She even gave us the topic on what will show on the written questions and it was exactly. She is very clear on what answers she needs and that is detailed answer which anyone who studied well will be able to give.

Ill start off by saying I hate biology. Not because of Lynette mind you, but because i dont like the topic. However, Lynette did a rly good job of explaining the material and helped me navigate this tough class

She is a really nice professor!

Lynette is an awesome prof and tries to connect with students by throwing in jokes. She's awesome and tries to make concepts easier to understand by going over things slowly. I just never liked biology and wasn't strong in it so I was never motivated to study for it. But if you are thinking of taking BIOL 1110 I would take it with her!

Great teacher. Classes were enjoyable. I printed out the powerpoint slides and put notes on them as she went through them in class and mostly studied from them. Very passionate about her work and teaching and is eager to help you understand the material. You do need to read the notes and study but it was not an overly difficult class.

Lynette is one of the most brilliant people I know. Be ready to show respect not only for her, but also for other students, the lecture/labs and the material itself. Expect Cell bio to push you, be ready to UNDERSTAND the material and not just memorize it, which not only takes conscious listening in lecture, but textbook reading and obj questions.

She is very kind and knowledgeable about biology. Great lectures and points out how concepts inter-relate. However, she's also no-nonsense. Don't goof off in class, be late, skip labs, etc. Her tests are hard but fair.

Lynette is extremely kind if you are there to respect the class and put in the effort to do well - or at least try to. She helps clarify concepts if you go to her after reviewing the text about it, and points out key areas for you to focus on in her weekly quizzes. No phones, talking or noises in class, but lectures are comprehensive&put on BBoard.

Took it for the credit, and even though it was hard, it was also one of the best things I've ever done. Lynette's an amazing prof, very supportive, caring, and motivational. Expect weekly quizzes - that help a lot in the long run - and heavy and long study sessions. Be ready to write detailed answers and to read a lot. Overall, great experience!

The course was organized like most intro bio courses; weekly quizzes, lab exams, and a cumulative final. Lynette is a slightly hard marker, but super kind and supportive if you're there to learn and focus on the course material. There was an anomaly with some questions where it was difficult to interpret what they were asking, so be knowledgeable!

One of the most, if not the most amazing professor I've had. Cell bio has been the hardest class taken so far but it really prepares you. Her way of teaching is way different, she really wants you to understand what you're learning, not just memorize and write it down. You need to engage a lot with the material, she really gives you a lot to help.

If you really put in the work and do the reading you won't have a problem. I would not recommend this class if you are not someone that is serious about science and your career in science. Overall I learned a lot and the dedication I had to put in to get a good grade in this class has set me up for my future classes and given me a good base.

Lynette is a caring, friendly, intelligent individual who is genuinely interested in teaching her students. It was her first online semester and she adapted well, the online environment did not interfere with her great attitude and she adjusted her teaching methods accordingly while seeking feedback from her students. I would recommend her.

Amazing professor, truly caring and kind, but if you can take this course with any other professor, I would recommend it as it's the hardest class ever, and she expects a very deep understanding of the material. Average for most of her exams was FAILING. With all this said, I acquired better studying habits and learned more than in any other class

Taking BIOL1110 with Lynette was hard, but helped me shape my study habits. She is a tough grader and expects you to be specific with the way you answer questions. Be prepared to read the textbook and depend on the course manual as the lecture slides are mostly content from the textbook. If you are not serious about Biology don't take this class.

Lynette makes it clear what is going to be on quizzes/exams, and makes sure to spend extra time around these objectives. She connects each body system to one another so that it make sense. Her quizzes are straight to the point, and exams contain the material that she tells you to study. Utilize time in class to do the notes.

She is such a caring professor who wants you to succeed, but her quizzes are super difficult. I sat at a C+ the whole semester and boosted it up to a B- with the final. The whole class is heavy with Biochem!!! Nice, but prepare to have to put in the work for a good grade.

Lynette has had a tremendous impact on me. I took her class back in 2015-2017. You could tell she took teaching very seriously and was passionate about the material. Showing up from high school I was nervous. She helped me gain a passion for learning and confidence in my academic abilities.

I think she's good at teaching, her voice is kind of soothing so you can fall asleep listening to her, just caffeinate yourself before you go in because she does explaining everything fairly well and I felt that I learned a lot in class, she genuinely wants us to try and do well.
