She is awesome! Anatomy is a difficult class but she will do her best to help you understand. She also give extra credit to help your chances of passing or for a better grade. Take her!!!!
I was very successful in this class. The teacher is a very excellant teacher!!! She is very helpful and gives extra credit if you need it. the class itself is demanding of your complete attention, but Mrs. Monlux helps you with any barriors. I recomend this teacher very highly.
The best prof. ever! Clear, concise & fun. She teaches exactly what she tests. Never any surprises.
She is an excellent teacher. I would highly recommend her! She's extremly helpful and will answer your questions clearly.
She's just amazing. I ace'd that class from start to finish. She's very clear and to the point. She uses awesome analogies. She tests you on only what she has taught. She's one with high spirits. But don't be mistaken, Anat is hard in itself. You have to put in good hrs of study to do well!! I highly recommend her.
It has been years since I had her class, but rest assured I will never forget just how awesome her class really is! You will need to enroll into her class first thing, because so many vie to have her as an instructor and to have anatomy without her, is a down right mistake! MJC is very fortunate to have Michelle as an instructor!!!

there is so much to learn in Monlux's class, but she manages to make it interesting and easy to remember. she is also very patient when extra instruction is needed.
She is awesome, anyone who needs this class shouldn't think twice about taking it with her.

Michelle loves teaching, and anatomy- and it shows. She explains things clearly, and constantly reviews. She is a fair professor who will take the time to explain things in a way that you will remember- she has lots of great hints for memorizing things. She is interesting and motivational....I highly recommend taking her class!
You must take Michelle for this class. She is very enthusiastic about teaching anatomy that she makes you enjoy the class. She gives out a lot of helpfull hints to remember information. The course itself requires a lot of time for all the memorization. I really enjoyed taking that class because I learned a lot and there was no surprises.
YOU MUST TAKE MICHELLE! She is such an awesome person. I love her! She speaks the student's language and is so organized and easy to understand. There are no surprises on her tests. There is so much to learn, and she makes it as easy as possible. Truly the only option if you are thinking about taking Anatomy.
She is a very good teacher and really wants to help her students. She tries to think of ways to help you remember the material in ways that you can understand! I would recommend her to anyone!
Michelle is awesome!! She is such a great techer. SHe makes Anatomy fun and interesting!! I loved her and she gives lots of extra credit!!
Anatomy being a hard class will be made easy and fun to attend if taken with her. her instructions are very very clear. if you do you work, you will work our with an A in the class. she is the best teacher. you wont find anyone better. from the cells, through bones, muscles, skeleton, and trough cadavers, she will be with you all the way. TAKE HER!
Michelle is without a doubt the best teacher I have had in college. I couldnt wait to go to class. The class is a lot of work, but she is very straightforward in what you need to know and conveying that to the student. If you need to take anatomy then you need to take Michelle...trust me you will love her!
Anatomy is a difficult class but she makes it sooo much easier! She breaks down everything so that anyone can understand it. She is the ONLY one you should take Anatomy from! We've seen some of Upton's tests and Michele doesn't require near as much detail.
She is the nicest teacher ever! She goes by her first name (Michelle) because she is cool.
She's the best teacher 4 the subject and really wants to help u learn the material. She's really fun and energetic.
She is awesome. She wants you to succeed and is very good at what she does. She is very clear and doesn't make you feel stupid when you ask questions like a lot of other professors. This is the person to take the class with!
she is energetic, interesting, easy to understand, and best of all straight forward. Tells you what is going to be on the exams, reviews info 4 quiz right before taking it, gives extra credit and doesn't waste time DUMBBB ?'s. Nobody wants valuable time spent in the labs wasted with people who don't even know where they are for the 2nd semester
This is the first class since I started college that I have became friends with the instuctor and thought that learning can be very fun and exciting
Michele is an excellent teacher, and very kind. She uses helpful pnemonics to remember different structures and often compares things to food ;D She is very clear and organized, and her tests were not bad. Do the work and study, study, study.. and you should do fine. She also has the funniest laugh too ;)
Hands down the best instructor I have EVER had. If you are going to take Anatomy -you have to take it with Michele. She obviously loves teaching and she makes this challenging subject fun and interesting. Very clear on what will be on tests & quizzes, no surprises. Great lectures and labs. Very helpful - always makes herself available to help. A+++
Michelle is a wonderful instructor...she should be teaching other instructors how to be a successful teachers and how to treat your students.She is clear on all aspects of anatomy and did'nt try to trick you with hard test questions. You did'nt have to take the final if you had above 98%. She has a beautiful personality and was helpful.
She is one of the best instructors I have ever had. She loves her job and you can tell. She also takes an interest in her students and makes you feel very comfortable. She is very clear in what she wants and helps you learn the subject matter however she can. Love her!
LOVE HER! Prob. the best teacher I've ever had. She is such an awesome person. Tells you exactly what you need to know and prepares you for quizzes and tests. No surprises, she offers extra credit and will do whatever it takes to help you in any way. Can't say enough good things about her. She's an overall amazing and inspiring person. Super nice!
You couldn't ask for a better teacher! I couldn't imagine taking this class with any other teacher! Super nice, tries to make it as simple as possible...offers extra credit on all her tests. Teachers do not get any better than Michelle!
She really cares about you and will definitely help you succeed. Definitely want to take Michelle. Makes each and every topic very clear.
Really enjoyed this class, Michelle is the best...opportunity for extra credit..makes anatomy fun!!
She makes a hard class interesting. I don't think the tests have to be so hard though. I would have liked more extra credit opportunities. Make sure you make use of SI sessions.
I have always heard to take MIchelle. I did not expect anatomy to be easy. But I do expect an instructor to help their students if needed without a better than thou attitude. Don't get me wrong she's a good teacher, i just wished she offered more of her time to help.
best teacher you could ask for, study guide helps you a lot! she do not give surprises in the quizes or exams, everything is crystal clear, practice exams help and she discussed it before exam, Definitely recommend her for anatomy.
Anatomy is hard as is there is a lot of material, but you wont find a better teacher than Michelle to help you sort it out and present it in a way that makes it real easy to learn it all, she is one of those very for the student kind of teachers and genuinely cares, she is always available for questions and offers great solutions if you are having
She is very good at explaining everything, and if you dont understand something she will explain it in a way so you will understand it.
probably the best anatomy teacher you could take at MJC. She is so welcoming and so helpful all the time! Always has a huge smile on her face, she makes learning anatomy fun and makes it to were you can actually understand the terms and concepts. I wouldn't recommend taking anatomy with anyone else other than her...shes simply amazing!!
Michele is the BEST anatomy professor at MJC, you cannot go wrong in taking her. Everything is hands on, she never tricks you on tests, she is fair, fun and very helpful. If you do well enough throughout the semester, you may not even have to take the final, if your points allow. You can't go wrong when you TAKE ANATOMY WITH MICHELE!!!
Michele is a wonderful teacher. The class is difficult, but she tries her best to get everyone to understand. As long as you study, you will do fine. She gives one quiz per week and an exam every five weeks or so. I reccommend taking Anatomy with her.
Greatest teacher ever!! Hard class, fast paced, but really fun! Her labs are long, but super laid back with music playing in the background. To succeed, I highly recommend the S.I. study sessions throughout the week as there are hundreds of terms to memorize and studying the models is a must!!
She's the easiest professor I've ever had. She explains everything in detail, and her lectures/lab are easy to follow and understand. Attend every lecture and lab and you'll get an easy "A"! If you get a high grade on every exam, you don't have to take the final! Marvelous teacher! I highly recommend her.
Great teacher, genuinely wants students to succeed. Provides great outlines
She is one of the best instructors that I have had while attending MJC. You couldn't ask for a more caring and attentive intructor when it comes to her students. Can't say enough good things about her! Highly, highly recommended!!!
great teacher!! not much homework.
Michele was a great teacher who made anatomy interesting and easy to learn. Lots of memorization helps and extra credit opportunities. Highly recommend.
Monlux is so awesome. I couldn't ask for a better teacher.
I loved Michele! If you have the opportunity to take her for god sakes do it! she is awesome. tests are straightforward, she doesn't try to trick you..all you do is memorize what you need to know and go to class and you will be fine :) she is super sweet and super helpful..one of the best teachers ive had at mjc so far
Michele is a WONDERFUL teacher who cares and tries her best to help her students to succeed.If you attend the classes and study hard, you will get an A+!Tests are very fair and straight forward,practice tests are very similar to the real exams.You won?t fail if you spend time in the class and go to SI.You will learn anatomy & have fun in her class.
Hard class. Good lecture. Good study guides. Are you an "A" student? No? Then you will have to study hard and long. Some assistants are excellent, not necessarily the ones she caters to. You'll see. Are you in the "in" crowd? No? Good luck
Brutal! The teacher has many rules which some students must follow ( not all ) if you know what I mean, Excellent lectures and video photos to follow on blackboard. But it's still very nose to the grind studying.
Didn't like her. Plays favorites to the smart crowd and the snobby party group.Need help? Tough luck if you are an average joe. Does give good study guidelines and you can learn from your book or on line and pass her class but her exams are rough.
Michell is a touch cookie, dont thing that going into her class will give you an A even if you are already an A student. The material is fast fast fast and memorzation is key and there is allot of it. Bones i never thought existed before we had to learn and every muscle in the human body alon with allot more had to be learned within 1 week, almost
do your self a favor, before you take her class memorize all of the human bones,the ones you can see and the ones inside the bones,along with the entire muscle system. it will give you a BIG advantae and give an already A student a possible B in the class. Plan on attending SI classes too it will help
Michele is so good at what she does! If you have the chance to take anatomy with her definitely do! She makes things very clear to where it just clicks.
Best anatomy teacher! I started with an F on my first of 5 tests but passed with a B. You must memorize about 200+ things per week. This requires a study group, SI time, flash cards and name game practice. Never put off studying daily or you'll fail. This class was very interesting & lots of fun but don't expect a life outside of it! Good luck!
I don't how she was in anatomy but in physiology she was horrible. She had to keep correcting herself because the book she used was wrong. She should know her material and the student not point it out to her it is wrong. Makes me wonder how much other stuff she taught was wrong. Doesn't respond back to student or her office hours
She was great. Always had time for students with questions, but kept the class moving. Engaging lecturer who makes a difficult course seem easier.
Good Luck to all the students who had her for physiology. So much material she taught was incorrect. I just love it when instructors "really care" about her students. Never available during office hours, has trouble doing what she says. Has a big ego and can't seem to admit when she is wrong.
I had Michelle for Human Biology and she is awesome. She explains things really well and answers everyone's questions! Tests are a little rough. Chapter's homework is online and not hard just practice. Overall she's great, take her and you won't regret it!
Shew is a very nice person, but the test are HARD i never understood them, but i passed the class with a good grade.
Great teacher! Helps you retain hard information by giving you hints to remember. I got an A but had to work for it. She did play favorites, so hopefully you are a favorite.
I had her for physiology but when I transferred I took the course over. What a huge difference between teachers. Take it at state university you will actually love it. I just hated this course with her. i got an A at the university. I love science but it was monotonous with her. Knowing what I know now I would have demanded a better education.
She absolutely plays favorites. She will tell you to study one thing and test on another. Don't question her on grading mistakes because she is always right and will not change the grade. She doesn't know the subject and reads straight from her notes. She says she won't test from anything but her notes but you better have the book and know google.
Don't waste your time with this horrible professor! She is ignorant, cold hearted, and plays favorites. She needs to be corrected constantly cuz she doesn't know Physio! And she is FAR from hot! Save time and take someone who knows what they are talking about! From a student with an A!!
I had her for both courses. She pays favorites towards the people who are actually TRYING to suceed. She was always quick to respond to emails and everyday before class she had 1 hour of study group where she would help students to understand this hard meterial. However, only a few of us would attend. She makes mistakes but she is fair!!!
Michelle is an AMAZING professor. She really knows her stuff, but it is ultimately up to the student to study. She really pushes her students to their maximum potential and should be considered a great choice for either anatomy or physiology!!
She is a good teacher. Does learnsmart which is online version for notecards & APR which is an online version with detailed pictures of cadavers&bones and its VERY useful. Don't be late! she's nice but i think she's bipolar. I love her, had her for Bio 116 and Anatomy 125.
She is a really great teacher for anatomy and human biology. But its not an easy class you have to try hard to get all of the concepts and take time to memorize all models. She gives extra credit which is good. All and all if you try really hard you can get an A .
Michele is very pleasant, helpful, and fair. An excellent professor. Never a boring moment.
I only had her for physiology and she doesn’t know the material! Nor does she care to learn it! She is lazy and only does the bare minimum - don’t expect her to care about you or your future.
Monlux is really the best Anatomy teacher one could have. She gives incredibly clear, detailed explanations and uses our time wisely.
Michele is an amazing teacher. Her lectures are very clear, and she provides notes with the information that will be on the test. Use the LearnSmart system and study your notes. The tests are not easy; however, if you study, you should be fine. Her questions are not stated to trick you.
Michelle's tests are very difficult to understand. The questions are confusing and very tricky. It's almost like she never wants to give anyone an A.
You have to learn SO much for one exam & she has 5 exams plus the final! Also gives a weekly quiz! The questions on her exam are tricky & hard to understand! She gives out an example exam but that is cake compared to the actual exam which is NOTHING like the example! Saddened over this class!
Michele is very organized and always excited about class material. She is always welcome to questions and is very helpful. She doesn't put material on tests that you wouldn't have the opportunity to learn. It's not an easy class by any means, but as long as students put the time into studying and doing well, they can.
I agree that some of her questions are not clear and specific. I wish we can keep our test, sometimes I feel like she has the answers wrong. You have to stay focused 100% in this class in order to get an A. Its a hard class but she does try her best to help and I think she is getting better with time.
Exams=very hard! Sample exams don't prepare for exams. In-class quizzes are poorly worded, she writes Q&A 5-10 mins before quiz. Dissection labs aside, most boring labs I've ever had, we just labeled models for hrs. Doesn't take control of the class & allows students to talk over her- very distracting. Nice lady but not all she's cracked up to be.
Michele is amazing. Always willing to answer questions. Anatomy has a lot of material to learn, but she makes it as easy to understand as possible. Do the work and you'll pass. She never tests on stuff she didn't talk about. All of her lectures are online so you can listen to them again. Gets grades back to you quickly. Labs are a lot of fun.
Love her way of teaching. Anatomy is not easy and contains a lot of material but she will try to make it as easy as possible to understand. She is there for you. If you have questions, ask! Studying is a def must! Do your part and you'll be fine. Exams are hard. And BTW, actual exams are nothing like the practice so don't rely on them.
Michele was a fabulous teacher! I think she is by far the best Anatomy teacher. She really wants you to do well and is very happy all the time, however she is a tough teacher but what anatomy teacher isint? Take her if you can!
YES shes a wonderful person and a great teacher.... BUT her tests are really hard.... if you are a good "test taker" you ll be ok... YES she wants you to learn but she is a difficult grader also.... I wouldn't take her class unless u dedicate ALL day to this 1 class OR if your just a genius at remembering things.....
She grades very very hard on any assignment she gives out. You get taken points off for any little mistake you make.. She expects perfection, not a fair teacher.
Good professor but she really tricks you on exams. You must really pay attention to get a decent grade in this class. She grades very tough and docks points on any little mistake you make. Wouldn't recommend if you can't dedicate a lot of time to this class.
Tests are VERY HARD. Do not take if you struggle at remembering material.. Very tough grader!!
Michele is an awesome professor. I would recomend anyone to take her class. She is brilliant, has complete understanding of the material and if you ask for the help, she will give it. She is willing to stay after class and help you out in any way. If you memorize the notes, quizes and labs, its an A.
Questions aren't clear, makes you print out every lab/outline/etc yourself, VERY tough grader, doesn't give enough time to finish labs, a TON of homework... the learnsmarts are horrible because she gives you like one day to do them. I'm a straight A student and yet I already have a C. DO NOT take this class if you are a working student!!!!!
Great teacher! Very knowledgable. Always eager to help, really great at explaining things and has you do learnsmarts before lecture and then explains everything further. Make sure to study if you want to pass the class and her exams! She makes you work for your grade but you really learn material. Amazing teacher overall I would recommend to anyone
Prof Monlux was absolutely wonderful both in Bio 116 and Anat 125. She was always willing to help her students and would spend lots of extra time with you if you ask, to ensure you understand the information. Would definitely recommend. Tests are tough, studying is mandatory.
exams are hard
