Dr. Hoyo is the best professor I 've had he truly cares and will help you become a better student and pass the class all professors should be as great as he is.BSC2085L
B E S T!!! teacher in twon, by farrrrr!! he reallly cares && understands that we do have lives its not only school! he teachs GREAT && reviews before!! his super nice and sweet and could REALLY REALLY TEACH!! best teacher for LAB i love him <3
Awesome! Very personable, easy going..interested in his students progress, not only in his course, but in life. Offers extra credit. Is extremely helpful. There is a quiz every clas, so attendance is mandatory or you'll miss it. He is flexible and understanding, a knowledgeable pathologist.
THE SWEESTEST PROFESSOR YOU WILL EVER HAVE!!! he is so understanding and flexible not to mention that the practicum's and quizzes are a breeze, whatever he covers is what will be asked of you on the tests.. He genuinely wants you to succeed in his class. He reviews right before the quiz and the class before the practicum. MUST go to class though!
Super easy A and genuinely cares about his students.
i took him for a summer term and hes AMAZING!! supper understanding he knows students have a life and that they work and he really takes it into consideration. he was great the material wasnt the easiest because we only had six weeks to cover it and he was extremely understanding of that as well. he goes over the tests and is just overall caring!
ez class, 1st test majority failed, then he gave us a retake of test, i mean come on how many professors do that, and ohh yea everyone passed the retake test, he knows his stuff and its real comon sense whats gona be on tested, NO BOOK NEEDED
I loved this professor! He was knowledgeable, fair and very sweet. I would highly recommend him.
The sweetest professor I have ever had. It was a pleasure coming to class. The majority of the class did bad on the first test so he gave us a retake and we all passed. I would love to take another class with him. He has a very good teaching style and makes the test material really clear.
DEF TAKE HIM!! HES GREAT! I have Professor Hoyo for BSC 2085L right now. He is the sweetest teacher. He has a lot of compassion and cares alot about his students. What he goes over in class is whats on the tests. He doesnt surprise u with anything. He gives hw for extra credit, and sends u powerpoints after class, so u show up but can study later.
Beautiful person. He cares so much about his students and his quizzes and practicums aren't difficult at all. Took him both for BSC2085L and BSC2086L got A's in both. Take him!!
I took Dr.Pino for A&P1. Best thing I ever did. I took Prof.Hoyo for A&P2, I didn't learn anything. He is a nice man but too nice. Ofcourse, if you are not going in Medical/Rx field donot take him because YOU WILL PAY LATER IN UPPER DIVISION. If your major is non-science then take him for an easy easy A.
He is an awesome person, he CARES for the students. He teaches, he is not hard. You have to know your stuff, you won't pass the class unless you study and pay attention to his lectures. Great man. Take him! Don't look back, he is just great!
You said: I didn't learn anything. I think that even a student with a low IQ will learn a lot with Prof. Hoyo, because of his good style of teaching and motivating us to study hard. He is extremely clear and an experimented pathologist and links anatomy and physiol. with the diseases. He knows about diversity and how to be focused on our needs.
I took him for lab and handown hes an awesome professor. Its anatomy so you do HAVE to study and he gives a lot of extra credit. Highly recommended.
Dr. Hoyo is the best Prof. I have had at Kendall Campus; he truly cares and is very compassionate. He understands that people have life challenges so he gives you a chance, but you have to study and try hard, he is not a push over.
Being a sweet and understanding person does NOT make you a great teacher. Doesn't actually teach anything, just uses slides and videos that have been outdated for 20 years. Has a wealth of knowledge and no understanding of how to share it with his students! You have to learn from the book, not him. DON'T take him if you need to learn Biology.
He is the best professor ever. He is understanding and will help you whenever you need it. Trust me I have seen pretty awful teachers, and he is Not one of them. In addition to that, he is not a homework person, instead he will provide extra credits to those who need it.Get him, he is excellent!!!
I took him for bsc 2086 lab in the summer, and I thought it was going to be a hard course, but he was very helpful and very intersted in making sure we understood the material.I got an A on the class. He is not hard at all. Take him, he is GREAT!!!
Take him if you have the chance! I love him. He's so understanding, and nice. And you do actually LEARN. You have to study a lot. But he's not one of those intimidating lab professors. He's really sweet, and encourages his students to learn. He makes you want to learn, and he's genuinely concerned with his students passing.
Worse teacher I've ever taken. If you take science seriously, don't dare step in this mans class. Your understanding of Biology will be WORSE than when you started. STAY AWAY.
Biology is hard and requires from you to study. Dr. Hoyo is a knowledgeable, helpful and understanging professor. He truly cares you to become a good student. I would strongly recommend him.
OMG this prof! is amazing!!! I love love love love love this prof!!! He tells u from the start what you need to know, he quiz and practicums are NOT HARD AT ALL! compared to my friends, Its super easy! Im actually going to take him for 2086L this prof is AMAZING!!!!! his accent is understanding! take him you wont regrettt ittttt!!!!!!
Super easy professor! You dont really need your book unlerss bio is your major. He gives you a study guide with exact questions and answers given on review day, that will be on the test. You dont even really have to be in class to pass. just memories the study guide and do extra credit he always gives and you pass EASY! RECOMMENDED!
AMAZING PROFESSOR. LOVE HIM. Helped me Tremendously. Very sweet. He tells you exactly what will be on the tests. If your doing bad, he helps you, did to me. Take him! :)

he is the best professor ever...he helps you in the class, gives extra credit and he actually cares about you, ill definitely take him again!!!
Very nice teacher and straight froward with the info you need to know. Quizzes and practicums come as no surprise if you listen in class and study. Unfortunately students take advantage of how nice he is and he seems to be getting sick of it (I don't blame him)
He is the best professor at MDC! He's super sweet and wants all his students to pass he gives reviews right before the quizzes and will meet up with you if there is anything you do not understand! Take him you won't regret it! I wish he taught other classes
Prof. Hoyo is superrr sweet. Hes a cute old man. all he really does is play the powerpoint videos and gives you a couple easy assignments. the class is ok just do good on 5 the tests (which he gives u the answers for) and youll pass with an A. (( dont need the book))
He is an AWESOME professor and He is VERY VERY VERY helpful.
PROFESSOR HOYO IS A GREAT PROFESSOR, HE WILL TEL YOU EXACTLY WHAT'S GOING TO BE ON THE TEST, BUT YOU HAVE TO STUDY OF COURSE, BUT OVERALL EXCELLENT CLASS bsc2085l
Professor Hoyo, is a very helpful and sweet. He gives you many hints on what to study for the tests, and also he gives a review before the test which is very good! The attendane is not mandatory, but if you have perfect attendance he will give you a 2% extra on your grade. Tests are not multiple choice, but it is ok that way you learn more!
DR. HOYO IS AMAZING. I LOVE THAT MAN! SHE IS THE SWEETEST PERSON IN THIS EARTH AND HE KNOWS WHO ARE HIS OVER ACHIEVERS! HE MAKES THE SUBJECT EASY AND IS ALWAYS THERE FOR HELP OR QUESTIONS. TAKE HIM! YOU WONT REGRET IT!
Professor Hoyo is a great professor! Im currently taking him for BSC2085L and he makes the class interesting and extremely easy! There is alot to study and memorize but he helps you alot and makes sure the whole class understands everything. He does have a strong accent but he isnt hard to understand! I definately recommend him! Book isnt required.
BEST PROF. EVER ! Really cares about his students, makes his class easy. Just go to class and study from the powerpoints. He does all his quizzes from the powerpoints and tells you whats going to be on the quiz. He is amazing & has a great heart :)
BEST TEACHER EVER! ... VERY SMART AND HELPFUL.. :)
Great professor and person. If you need help he'll give it to you, but of course you have to study, but otherwise, why are you at college?
BSC 2086L - Great professor! Super understanding and will go out of his way to help you if needed. He is fair, takes care to teach in a way that will help you do well. Gives a good review prior to quizes and practicums but you will have to study in order to do well. The best thing is he teaches you what you need to know and does not go overboard.
Wow, what an amazing professor! Very organized and definitely knows his stuff! Tell's you what is on the quizzes and even reviews the material the day-of! He will tell you what is on the practicums. Definitely recommend him. Easy A!
The best teacher super helpful available for tutoring textbook not necessary he uses the power point presentations emails you the presentations and tells you exactly what to study for the quizzes and practicums you do not have a quiz every class
He is a great professor. He wants his students to learn and is always willing to help. He gives very helpful reviews for the quizzes and tells u exactly what to study. He helps his students pass and makes the class as easy as possible.
He is great! Looks intimidating the first day of lab, but you will definitely learn anatomy. He wants to help students and he also wants to make sure you learn. With his powerpoints you will not need the book.
He's the best there is out there he is a must take there is no theacher like him if he sees your strugging he will help you great personality
This is one of the nicest professors I've ever met, extremely knowlegeable. I passed the class with an A. I studied and i learned a lot with him, his tests and quizzes are easy. If you make an effort, he will help you. TAKE HIM!
im taking him for lab right now. tells you what to study for quizzes & practicums. does a review before quizzes. in class exercises after giving a lecture. extremely helpful. its a pretty chill class so far as long as you show effort and you must study! he's great!
Stay away! Horrible! You must study really hard to do good on the quizzes!
Not a good professor. Take someone else if you plan on doing nursing.
An excellent professor! Extremely helpful! If you want to be a good professional, take him. Awesome!
I was having difficulty retaining information, and this professor took time out of his schedule to sit one on one with me to make sure I understood all material. GREAT professor, and GREAT man. He truly helps those who want to learn. I would definitely take him again! :)
his lab is the best. he literally tells you what you need to know for practicums. you have to study the material though, because he likes to test your knowledge. he gives quizes & sends you useful powerpoints. Overall, he's the best ! you don't need the lab manuel
An excellent professor! Easy to understand and you learn a lot. He sends you power point slides so you don't need a book. You do have to study but he tells you exactly what's on the quizzes and practicum. He also cares about his student.Overall he is a great professor!
super easy professor. sends you powerpoints ahead of time. tells you exactly what to study for the quizzes and practicums. the sweetest guy ever
If you show that you are willing to make an effort, he will do his best to make sure you understand everything. He is an awesome professor that makes the class enjoyable.
Best A&P Professor. He is caring and will help you out in any way. He tells you exactly what power points to memorize. Just memorize that and you will pass with an A. Thick accent but a great professor. I took him for A&P1 & 2 and passed with A's. Highly recommended.
Dr. Hoyo is very helpful and makes class very interesting. He will do whatever is in his hands to help you pass the class but you need to study. If you need clarification, he will take time after class to seat with you and explain until it is clear. He has a BIG HEART. Take him, you will learn a lot with him.
If you have no prior knowledge of anatomy and physiology then i really recommend you take him. Dr. Hoyo TRULY cares of his his students has really has a passion for teaching. He will do whatever he can do to help his students understand the subject and pass his class. And not to mention he makes class interactive and hands on. AWESOME professor
AWESOME!! do yourself a favor and take him. he is the best teacher ive had in my two years in dade. he truly cares about his students and you can tell he loves teaching. obviously you do have to study the material but he will help you as much as he can. He is very smart and nice. If you fail this its because you dont care. he sends power points
Awesome professor. Take him and thank me later. You will pass his class if you set aside 30 minutes of your day each day to study material it's no way you can fail. Its all about memory!
He is one of the best proffessor I ever encountered. He transmiit his enthusiasm of what he does , and makes sure his students are understanding the subject. It is not a secret that you havet to spend few hours per week studying the material in order to pass, but he makes easy for you!
Amazing professor . Taking him for BSC2086. You won't regret taking him for anatomy lab
Professor Hoyo seems very boring at first, but all you have to do is find some friends and focus your time to study for his class. Everything is based off of his powerpoints. It really helped me to sudy in groups. Anatomy 2 is not an easy subject, not to mention the lab, but you can do it if you put your mind to it. ADVICE: try hard on every test.
"better than me none of you the same as me all of you." his favorite quote. great teacher.
BEST PROFESSOR EVER...he is the best teacher I've had. he REALLY cares about his students n he definitely loves teaching. STUDY is mandatory or forget it, but he will help u as much as he can. He is very smart, lots of knowledge n nice person. If u don't pass its because u don't care. he sends power points study them. take him!!! RECOMMENDED 150%
He's possibly the most dedicated professor in all of MDC. He has a genuine interest in his students and will do everything he can to help you. However, if you think it's an easy class and you don't have to study, you'll fail. It's very hard but if you STUDY STUDY STUDY and take it seriously, you'll pass with an A. Everything is off the powerpoints!
This is quite possibly the most genuinely nice and helpful professor ive ever encountered. You'll probably find his lecture boring at times and his tests are pretty hard, but if you study the structures and stay after class and ask for help and really try to do better , this guy will make sure you pass his class. So glad i took him.
He is a great professor. He cares about his students doing well in the classroom. At first this teacher was very boring. His test are hard but if you study you will do well, they are all based on the power points. Don't buy the book its useless.
He's amazing; a sweetheart; a phenomenal teacher; an even greater individual. You must study, but he is willing to offer all the help you may need. He loves what he does and is SO knowledgeable. Only good things to say about this Professor. We need more like his kind.
Dr. Hoyo is the greatest, Anatomy is not an easy subject, but he genuinely cares about the well being of his students. He's the BEST!!!
Mr. Hoyo is a great professor. He is caring and very knowledgable teacher. Tells you what to study for the practicum, there are only three. Also gives quizzes every other class that are extremely easy. Yes you have to study but its an anotomy class what do you expect. Take him, you wont regret it
BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!!!! MORE THAN CLEAR AND HELPFUL!!!!!!! I RECOMMEND HIM 100%!!!
Great professor! He can be a little confusing sometimes w what will be on the practicum, so ask questions. He will help you if you talk to him and you show him you care and want to learn. Don't skip class. Uses all of his class time. Befriend him and show him you are trying and you'll pass with an A. 3 Practicums and 4 quizzes. Take him!!
I took him for anatomy lab 1 and 2. Amazing professor. He mention what you need to study for the practicums and tests.
Great professor that cares about his students as long as you show interest in the class/ subject. The test are not as hard as long as you study. Is a Power Point mostly based class so you won't really need the book, tough I recommend it for studying. As far a study guides there isn't, so basically pay much attention to what you covered in class.
Great professor, take him. The class is basically 4 quizes and 3 practicums. No homework or projects. Just print the PowerPoints and get a highlighter so you can mark what you need to study. If you do this you won't be lost trust me. Take him , he's a very caring professor.
Honestly this was a really tough class for me. The memorization of so many different anatomical terms does not come so easy to me. If given a word bank on the tests,I most likely would have passed this class. Overall a great and inspirational man . Great teacher too,but the tests are no joke.
HE WAS GREAT. I was failing the class and he gave the class extra credit. Write down everything he points out and study it. He is extremely helpful if he knows you are trying. Ended with an A great professor but the test are hard. You better study cramming the night before doesn't help. I would take him again no problem
Just started summer camp second class, i really like his class, inspiring human being....
Take him you will learn a lot. The class is the usual he sends the power points of his lectures and you study from that. I took 1 and 2 with him and don't regret it.
This professor is beyond helpful! He does have an accent. There are 3 test and 3 quizzes in-between test. If you interact with him after class or during his office hours, he will help you out. No one really fails his class unless you really don't want to pass. He will give you chances time and time again.
4 TESTS. GIVES GUIDES. QUIZZES IN CLASS, HE GIVES YOU GUIDES. NEED TO STUDY. KNOWS HIS CRAFT. GREAT PROFESSOR. BE RESPECTFUL, HE IS OLD AND GETS UPSET FOR NO REASON. GOOD EXPLANATIONS. TAKE HIM!!!!!
This is one of the best professors I have ever taken. He makes the information easy to digest and he is a wonderful person. I would love to take him again.
He is inspirational indeed. We all know that Anatomy is not a joke but professor Hoyo gives you confidence and you have no idea of how important it is , especially for a student, to feel confident. Wonderful environment. Thank you so much professor! We need more like him at MDC.
Really great guy. No book needed, everything is in the powerpoint that he provides. Doesn't speak very clear, and all exams have a second half done through powerpoint where he points to the questions with a laser.. he goes fast but if you miss something he will help you out. Cares about you and your grade, genuine. Much respect for him. STUDY!!!
Professor Hoyo is hands down the best professor i have ever had. He explains the material incredibly well and explains it to you until you understand it. Pay attention to his lecture and his review at the end of each class, it'll help you a lot for the practicums. He is the most caring and thoughtful professor I've met. Take him and respect him.

Professor Hoyo is without doubt the greatest professor ever. He truly cares about his students. I took him for Anatomy I and II and passed both with an A. He provides all the information you need for the quizzes and Practical on his Power Points.
Prof. Hoyo is very accessible and if you do not do well he helps you a lot with the quizzes, there are only 4 quizzes and 4 practical tests. easy A
Prof. Hoyo is very clear and he give you a good review for the test and quizzes. Easy A
professor cares about his students passing the course. he gives 4 quizzes and 3 exams.. the PowerPoints that he provides be on the exams and quizzes. He also kind of old and don't like to walk around as much. you can pass his class.
Dr. Hoyo is a great professor. He really cares for his students and tries to make sure the class understands the importance of Anatomy for our future path in the healthcare field. I am taking Dr. Hoyo for BSC 2086L, he is the first professor that I signed up to take another class with. Take him and if you need help, ask him for help.
He is sooo easy. I take him for Lab and all you need to do is print out the PPT that he is lecturing that day and highlight the things that he tells you to remember for the test. HE gives 3 quizzes and 3 tests, and if you are struggling in his class just talk to him and he'll try his best to help you out, he cares about his students. Take him!
he is just beyond amazing. I will take him again for BSC2086. he cares a lot about his students. just study hard and you will pass n
Professor Hoyo, is an incredible professor for BSC2086L. He uses the powerpoints as lecture and mentions which powerpoints are very important for the exam. There are 3 practicums and 4 quizzes. He also gives 2 mini homework assignments that are very easy to do. He is very kind and truly cares for his students. Highly recommend this professor!!
Not a good professor. Take someone else if you plan on doing nursing. i never knew my grade probably won't
doesn't answer emails unless a higher up is involved and doesn't tell you whats on the exams in other words you have to memorize everything which is impossible.
Hes a good guy and he has a good heart he wants all his students to pass with that being said , he isnt a good professor hes very boring and doesnt know how to teach , if your gonna take class with him I recommend you teaming up with classmates that way you guys cant study together If not I dont recommend him :/
He teaches grate he has a bit of an accent but everything he tells you to study is what you need to know! Helped me pass this class easily I love him and wish he was available next semester.
Don't hesitate and take this god-like creature of a man. He's a beast, and he looks like one too. Easy A!!!!!!!!!!!
If anyone can help me Im taking him for lab do we need his book or an access code for the class
He is a very caring individual but he does not explain what will be on exams and basically you must memorize everything. As far as the format for his exams hes really not specific in what he's doing. He talks a lot mainly on personal life and issues. Best thing to do if you get stuck in his class is to team up with other students and study.
If you study for the class like you should for any other class you will pass. However, professor hoyo can be extremely rude. Nothing was explained in depth he just got through the powerpoints and that was it. I got an A because I studied. I learned more from my lecture professor.
This professor is extremely sweet and funny, but he is not very clear on what is going to be on the exam.
If you are good memorizing stuff take this class, if not, look for another professor, because this class is basically memorizing everything of the powerpoint. He tells you what to memorize for the test, but its a lot. The first Pratica is the easiest one, try to get a good grade on that one because the second practica is the hardest.
Prof Hoyo is an ok professor, he is sweet but he does have a thick accent that makes things hard to understand sometimes which is difficult with anatomical terms. He doesn't really tell you what you need to know on the test and often picks the most random, insignificant part of the model to identify during practicums so really study them.
Professor Hoyo is a really good professor, quizzes every 3 weeks, 3 practicums and the easiest of homeworks!! A little messy but you can manage to make sense out of it.
First of all, you can't miss class because he tells you what he will test on, you won't have to buy a book he gives you the powerpoints with are the best in the school. For those that are having a hard time in the class keep in mind that you need to know this stuff its not like the Pythagorean theorem
All I can say is like this professor no one. I had a little of a rough semester and he was beyond understanding, he was available through mail and class was easy as long as you studied.
