he is hilarious! he is hard, but who said that was a bad thing? at least we are learning from him.

He is unorganized which can be frustrating. But I thought he made the subjects (I had him for 2 classes) interesting and easy to understand. His English is a little hard to follow but that made me pay better attention. I learned a lot in his classes. If he knows you are trying really hard he'll work with you - don't talk while he is!

Although the content is very hard, Dr. Bishr makes every effort to help you learn. He has an accent, but he is pretty easy to understand he will repeat himself if needed. His tests are pretty easy,no essays. He provides a study guide if asked. He alsolets you have a notecard for tests. Open book quizzes. Overall, I enjoyed the class!

Took his Micro class and I really enjoyed it. He's a little hard to understand due to his accent, but will happily answer any questions.All lectures are on power point and he is very helpful. I recommend this class for students who don't expect an easy A, and love to learn from someone who loves to teach.

Just as you would expect...you have to study your boody off for this class. Watch out for pop quizzes at the end of lab when you are least expecting it. He goes from the textbook in this class and does a good job of explaining. Also lets you have notecards for lecture tests. Easy A if you are willing to study.

I loved this class! You need to study alot... there is no room for slackers. Dr. Bishr is awsome

I was really apprehinsive about this class and not looking forward to it at all. He made it so easy because he only tests on what is covered in class. I passed with an A and I maybe only read one chapter from the book. I really liked this class because of the teacher.

He is a really good teacher, a little hard to understand at times but will slow down and explain things if asked. Lectures off of power point and if you follow the lecture and read the book you should be able to get an A. You are going to have to study alot in this class.

Awesome class! had him last spring semester. He is a very good teacher. very dedicated and knows his stuff! there is no room for slackers in this class though. Slackers only love to complain. If you want to be successful you will enjoy his class a lot. Getting an A is not hard at all if you love to study. Plus, he loves to give extra credit.

Dr. Bishr is great at what he does teaching that is. I highly respect him as a professor. He is the one to have for all of your biology classes.

Pros: He uses powerpoint notes, helpful for when you can't quite decipher through the accent. He's a bit of a jokester. If you show him respect, he will show you the same. He lets you use a 3X5 (or 4X6 on the final) notecard for tests. Attendance COUNTS! Cons: sometimes hard to understand. The material is really a lot to take in. Otherwise GREAT!

If you're taking this class take great notes! Use textbook to clarify notes. Very random test questions which makes tests harder. I have med background and struggled with super detailed questions not gone over in class. Study reviews help somewhat. Plan to spend time reviewing and studying outside of class.

This is a good teacher and he knows his stuff. Do not have any prejudice about his accent or whatever. As long as you are willing to put some effort you will be fine and can easily have an A. But if you are just looking for an easy class where every body get an A without any effort this is not the one for you. look somewhere else.

He is an awesome insturctor. He is tough but he makes sure you know your stuff. If you do your best it is very possible to get an A in his class.

I would absolutly recommend Dr. Bishr to anyone questioning whether to take his class. he is an amazing teacher who cares about his students. he does have an accent but I did not find it difficult to understand him. His classes are fun and upbeat but you must pay attention and studying is a MUST!!!

Dr. Bishr is A-Mazing, he is so helpful and REALLY wants you to understand the material. He does have a thick accent however was not a problem at all to understand. My entire class loved him. He throws in alot of extra points for attending class and pop quizzes. You WILL have to study, but any A&P you WILL have to, LOVED HIS CLASS!

He is a great teacher, has a great since of humor, but doesn't like students to be distracted or being a distraction. He is a little hard to understand, but his heart and his teaching is in the right place!

Great teacher..Treats good students w/much deserved respect & a little more leniency. Hates cheaters or sharing of test questions with other classes

Micro/A&P are generally harder classes. Dr. Bisher is one of the best professors I've had. he will spend extra time with you if your put forth effort. He allows you a 3X5 card on exams but don't rely on them. If you pay attention and study, his classes are easy, and his extra credit is helpful. A's are possible. You suck if you get less than a B.

I don't think Dr. Bishr is a hard teacher. This is a hard class,it covers a LOT of info in one semester. I found him willing to explain and answer questions and he gives you extra points on tests. Attendance and participation count and will improve your grade. I had 3 other classes and still got an A.

Bishr is one of the best instructors I ever had. This micro class is also very easy. I feel like a loser for getting a low A in the class. If I had just studied a little more I could have gotten nearly a perfect grade. Nothing is hard about this class. Everything is in the book and in the slides. I hope nursing school is this easy.

Dr Bishr is a great teacher if you show interest and pay attention. Language and accent can be difficult but if you read the material before class you should have no problems. Material is difficult and there is a lot to cover so keep up and there is no problem getting an A.

Dr. Bishr is a very fair instructor. He gives 4 exams and 4 quizes for the whole semester, so there is not a lot of opportunity to earn points. If you study and show interest and dedication, you will do well in his class. Be on time to class, because he periodically gives pop quizes in the first five minutes of class that count as extra credit!

He is an excellent teacher Firm, Fair, and Consistent. Everything is in the power point that are on blackboard.

I enjoyed Dr. Bishr's class! He is humorous yet very stern and passionate about A&P. Prepare to study your butt off and pay close attention to things he repeats in class.

Dr. Bishr was a tough cookie and sometimes hard to understand. He also has a huge heart and doesn't want students to fail. He is very adamant about students knowing the material. Get ready to study, arrive to class early, and ask for help if you don't understand him!

Great teacher. Funny. Tests are straightforward. Gives you a review guide before every test. Expect a quiz the class prior to test date. Let's you use an index card for your tests. Would definitely take another class from him again. The class isn't bad as long as you study.

Great instructor. His accent can be hard to understand. Does everything possible to help students. Read textbook and blackboard notes. Pop quiz before test. Frequently asks if anyone has questions. I took micro from him, earned an A in both classes. Wish he could teach all science classes. Gives study guide, and crib notes. Tutors are available.

First let me start out, by saying that this is the best teacher I have ever had. The class is rigorous, but he gives clear cut review sheets, extra credit, tests only based on his power points, and answers any questions you have. Please study, it is two classes in one. He has a thick accent, but easy to understand after a few weeks and won't notice

Any science class is tough because there is so much material. Mr. Bishr is hilarious and likes to see his students try. Study guides are given and quizzes open book. He does have a thick accent but if you need extra help will be more than happy to explain it to you. If you do the work and study you will pass

Totally enjoyed this class. Dr Bishr is a great instructor but like any other class,you have to play your part by showing interest,participating in classroom as well as attending. Attendance is big as he marks it every day. NO CELLPHONES!! Otherwise this professor is very knowledgeable and willing to help you achieve your goals! I recommend him!

Funny guy who is very straightforward. Simply follow his reasonable classroom rules, go to class, and read the material. He lets you use notecards (I never heard of such a thing) that you fill out and use during lecture tests, but not lab tests. Getting as much info on a notecard as you can isn't enough to do well. His quirks are very entertaining.

Dr. Bishr was an absolutely amazing teacher who allowed me to fall in love with learning again. Compassionate, a little wild and insanely smart. Don't listen to the negative - he wants you to pass & will help you if you ASK. His lectures follow the book directly, and study guides are given that match the test material. A++

Dr. Bishr is very dedicated to teaching, but especially for the student to learn the material. He expects you to be in class, pay attention, and participate during lectures. Asking questions is very important as he is open to answering them, and at least for me, helped me understand the material very well. His accent takes some time to get use to.

It's difficult class but to be successful you must read your textbook with your lecture they go together... He's a wonderful instructor.

Lab tests required major memorization, but Professor Bishr noticed when his students worked hard. A&P is a difficult topic and needs a lot of time dedicated to memorization. I remember him fondly and still recall my classmates from that semester - we all worked our butts off and Professor Bishr rewarded that hard work.

Dr. Dr. Bishr is very kind yet straight forward on what he expects out students. Lectures are heavy however he explains very clearly what he means, and makes sure everyone understands, gives examples or stories for better understanding (very charismatic and funny). He announces tests and gives study guides. Allows 1 index card for exams.

Mr. Bishr is very passionate about micro, I typically find science courses easier than any other but this summer I took micro & math while working full time & never again. He is fair and caring which I think helped me pass class. He has a heavy accent & he expects you to read your textbook & make sure you take notes. I think I would take him again.

Overall this professor was great. The only hard part is understanding him with his accent. He did take attendance and was very strict on needing to be at class but also understanding if there was actually a problem. He does expect people to answer his questions and will wait or call on someone until they do.

He has patient with his students and is very kind. He never pushes and gives his students stress. If you read his lecture and the lab papers for sure you are successful in this class.

Dr. Bishr is a kind and playful man but it is difficult to tell if/when he is being serious and mean or joking because of cultural and linguistic differences. His Microbiology class is difficult because of the volume of information but almost everything is on the study guide minus a few questions come from the book review section.

Dr. Bishr expects you to be prepared for the course (moves fast and material is heavy). He knows the topics and explains them easily, the hard part is to understand him 100% with his accent (his handwriting doesn't help much either). If you want a good grade, DO NOT STUDY THE DAY BEFORE THE EXAM, 1 hour of review after class is more than enough.
