Fantastic Teaching Style- Way to go, Dr.P!

Too sweet! You'll love this class!

He is a good instructor

Uses varied teaching methods; provides clear answers to questions

WHAT A FUN CLASS. HE WAS A TEACHER I TREASURE. U R 2 COOL

this guy is a great teacher, goes out of his way to help students learn!

If every teacher spent the amount of time and energy teaching his students school would be a much more satisfing experience.

He is very through, but very difficult. I wouldn't take him again if I had the choice.

Awesome teacher! As long as you do your part and are prepared when entering the class, you can do well. It is amazing how he teaches. Even if the material sounds Greek to you, before you know what hit you, you understand it. He is extremely intelligent, and goes above and beyond to help.

His outlines are great and he gives you everything you need for his tests. Though is a little hard to listen to toward the end of the semester. but overall he is a great teacher...

I've heard many say that he goes into too much detail, but its not knowledge that wont be useful to you in your careers as nurses, docs, etc...so listen, learn something, and stop complaining. Besides for anyone who struggles with the material, he goes above and beyond to pull you through the course offering spare time to anyone.

Dr. Susan is so cute! an awsome teacher too. thanks to him i passed the class! he goes out of his way to help students, and is passionate about teaching!

I keep getting good science teachers, and Susan is definitly up there on the list.

i love dr. susan he's awesome...he tells you everything you need to know to do well..he gives great lectures and makes the material interesting and gives helpful advice on remembering terms...great guy...always will help you after class too. as long as you do the work and study you'll do great.

i had dr. susan last semester and gawd do i wish i had him now...my 211 teacher sux. dr. susan is fun and passionate about biology...he may tell you extra stuff but it's always things that are helpful to know in the long run. basically if you are a good student and you study you will do well if you are slack then forget about it. great guy.

Dr. Susan is such an intelligent man. Yes, he can be quite difficult. I don't know about anyone else,but I am in school to be challenged so that I can learn new things. If you come to class and pay attention and study the notes, you will learn! He is a great professor and I highly suggest him.

Dr. Susan is by far the best professor I have ever had. In the six years that I have been in college I've never had a teacher be soooo helpful, he goes out of his way to do for you. unless you have a good understanding of biology, I would have a lower level Bio first befor entering his class.

If you are a person who has to write things down to learn them, do NOT take his class. He talks too fast and too much to write, very boring

He is hard, but if you don't want to learn then don't take his class. I took him for 210 & 211 and got A's in both. If I can do it then its not impossible. The trick with him is study the notes he gives out even the little sentences written in the corner...it'll be on the test. you don't need the book unless your really lost.

Dr. Susan is always available to help. The class was very tough, but he makes it easy to understand. I took microbiology and bio211 at the same time over the summer and he tutored me for 3 hrs on monday and wednesday each week just so i would not get behind!! I recomend him very highly!!

You don't need the book at all, but you do need to study his notes closely. He will always help out. He is a fun, but difficult, teacher. I wouldn't mind taking him again, but I will try for an easier teacher first. It's also better if you at least look at his notes before he teaches that part. It made it easier to understand.

Truly enjoys the material & wants students to learn. If you want to coast through class, this is *NOT!* the instructor for you. Requires you to apply the info, not just regurgitate it. Doesn't use the book. Handouts are jammed but worth their weight in gold; study them. Always willing to help! You need a strong BIO & CHEM base to pass this course.

Awesome instructor!! He's a little scary at first, but once you get his method and figure out how to study his notes, you are golden!! He is all knowing when it comes to this stuff!! He is always there to help and gives ample pre-quiz study time in lab with the models. He was great!! I will take him again and again!!

Took it online. Optimal for online because everything is in the notes that he prepares. No need for the book at all. He is very technical and really emphasizes chemistry, but a great teacher. He does come off as rude in the beginning, but you just have to follow his rules. If you can't spell or learn to spell, don't take his class.

Dr. Susan IS demanding, but he'll help you if you ask him. Remember, folks, that this class is a gateway course to the health professions & he's most likely weeding out the mediocre students--do you REALLY one day want a nurse who can't adequately pass A&P to be working on you?! Give the guy a break! He does his job well, and with passion.

I think Dr. Susan is an awesome teacher. The first month is tough because he is weeding out the bad students, but after that he is great. He is very helpful and will answer any questions to make sure you understand. You will leave his course feeling confident about what you know.

Everyone was so scared of Dr. Susan. If you are a slacker, then drop or he will make you anyway. Don't try to ride it out, cuz it won't work. You better be on time every day because he does mark it. He does not use the book cuz the book sux. His notes were great once you got the hang of them. He is very intelligent and if you need help, ASK!

Extremely smart. ATTEND HIS CLASS. You will learn if you follow his notes, but he does notice if you leave early or aren't there. he'll assume you know your stuff if you do. He really wants you to pass despite always telling people to drop, and he will help you. Most important class of my semester and the best.

The best teacher I've ever had.He is very smart , very honest and very well prepared for class. I had him last semester and just love Bio 210 because of him.

If you are not in school for a specific purpose, if you are not motivated to work on this class, do not take this professor. If you are however, He will be one of the best teachers that you have ever had. I enjoy his class greatly, but it is not one that you can sleep through. He is a very good professor, and I've had plenty to compare him to.

I've taken A&P at 2 different universities(they didn't transfer) I know for a fact it doesn't have to be as hard as he intentionally tries to make it. He expects you to know too many details. Even if 210 is supposed to be taught from the clinical perspective it is still an entry level course (whether he thinks it should be or not).Class too hard!!!

At first I was intimidated, but I really enjoyed his lectures. He post all the notes you need, so just follow his notes. He is very helpful and is a fun class. He made us laugh a lot even though I do not think he meant too. Really informative and fun class.

He scared the crap out of me the first week, but I'm so glad I stuck with it because he was an amazing teacher. I've never done that awesome in a BIO class before! All you have to do is study his notes and you are set. I didn't make below a 97 and my highest score on his test was a 109 because I studied his notes he's a piece of cake!pay attention

He is a very in-depth teacher, but if u listen and pay attention u will learn alot. Make sure to study notes and check your spelling.

Anyone who thinks he is a bad teacher didn't study. You can tell by reading who worked hard and who didn't. You are learning about the human body, and you want it to be easy? He expects a lot out of you so you are a great health care worker. Lots of information, all you have to do is study. He is a great teacher who explains everything.

Great teacher, knows his stuff. You have to study and actually learn the material. If youre lazy and uninterested in the medical field, probably shouldn't take his class. He's there to make or break you. He wants you to succeed and will help you if you ask. If you want to be a great nurse, take his classes.

Very passionate teacher and knows his stuff about the human body. His entire class is based on his notes that are given at the bk store and his tests are basically made up from those notes. Recommend not missing class and keep up with studying to recieve the best grade. Overall I enjoyed his class!

I enjoyed his class.

GREAT TEACHER!! He loves to teach biology and knows his stuff. He is not easy but you will learn. His test are much easier than his quizes. Do not miss classes. I'm currently in the nursing program and I refer back to his notes at times. Learn the notes every detail and pay attention to his drawings. He has alot of information in those drawings

Dr. Susan is an extremly smart man and knows his biology. You will learn alot if you buckle down and pay attention. But he talks and goes over material like you should all ready know it and have your masters :( but i loved him! very sweet guy. I learned ALOT from him! this is my 2nd time having him. He is really good at what he does.

Wonderful an amazing teacher. I recommend him to everyone as long as you study his notes a show up to class you will do find.

Excellent teacher! He really cares about his students and their grades. He really wants everyone to pass. He is always more than willing to help. As long as you read/ study his notes, show up to class, and take it seriously then you should do fine. I took him fall 2012 and got an A. I definitely recommend him!

If you have other priorities, I would not recommend his class. His notes, although helpful, are no consistent with the book.

He's very specific as he should be! Only serious students should take him. There is no room for slackers. Hard but also very informative.

GO TO CLASS! He keeps track if you leave early or come in late. Make sure you do the check in also. You don't need the book, I never opened my textbook. The lab manual you need. Spelling is a must in lab. He will help you only if you ask. This class is what you make it. Study hard or you will not pass!

These horrible reviews just blow my mind. I can tell you, without a doubt, he is the best professor I ever had. He supplies you with a booklet that contains literally every piece of info you will be tested on, and he explains it VERY meticulously in class. Show up and pay attention. If you can't do this, you're not ready for college.

I never actually had him as a professor, but he filled in for mine a few times. I just have one thing to say.. He is brilliant. He definitely knows his stuff and is totally willing to help. His lecture was clear and I feel like I learned more from him than my own teacher during that chapter.

I'm taking his class now and I can tell you that if you miss a lecture, it hurts your grade. He is so passionate about the subject. Some people come in with no knowledge of basic biology and they fail. Those are the ones who give him a terrible review. He may seem condescending, but this man is SUPER smart. Definitely weeds out the weak.

Great teacher. He always sends emails making sure we know whats coming up next class. Incredible smart guy. The only thing i didnt really enjoy was the long lectures.

Dr. Susan is the best teacher you can have for bio lab. He knows his lessons very well. I recommend to take his class. He is very helpful to his students.

Dr. Susan was great. He tells you in the beginning if you cant make the time for the class go ahead and drop. Remember you are cramming 15 weeks worth of work into just 7 weeks. He is clear with the assignments. There is no homework just study guides to be done, that he gives an answer key too. He curves his grading!!!

Dr. Susan is an intelligent individual. He teaches with concepts, not definitions. If you want basic one word flash cards, this class is not for you. That being said, when he explains something, he not only tells you what it is, but also how it works in tandem with everything else. Not an easy class, but definitely a fun one for me!

Dr. Susan is a very intelligent man. If you're taking to this class to retain the information for a career, I would definitely recommend him. Tests are very tough. You need to be dedicated in order to make a good grade in this class.

If you are truly interested in science and understand that doing well in college means working hard, you will love Dr. Susan. He is one of the best professors I've ever had and I can't believe how much I learned in his class. Sometimes he gets a bit off topic, but he always loops back around to the subject at hand. He is always willing to help.

Dr. Susan is the best, hands down. Don't come to class unprepared and yeah his lecture are long, but the man is a great teacher. I wish I could have had him for both 210/211. If you are taking this as a nursing pre-req, don't complain, if you think this class is too much then you will not be ready for the nursing courses. Study and pay attention!

He sent an email a week before the class started and warned everyone on how difficult his class is. you you are not prepared to spend countless hrs studying you don't need to take bio 210. Its a very fast pace class and there is a lot to cover. he grades his quizzes and midterm exams with a curve. They are hard but it made the final easy! Study!!

Dr. Susan is definitely an outstanding teacher. I had him for my Bio 210 in Spring and what everyone else says is true, he teaches concepts and not definitions. My only complaint is that he does teach at higher level than where you're at in the class so I was lost for a while but if you study and read the material, it should be smooth sailing.

The way Dr Susan teaches is marvelous! "Teaching concepts not definitions." His class is not to be taken lightly, but if u listen and pay attention you will actually learn and develop a deeper understanding of Anatomy. Would reccomend to anyone who is willing to work and learn.

Dr. Susan is hands down one of the best professors at TTC. If your truly interested in the medical field TAKE HIS CLASS. No he is not the easy A professor, but if you really want to learn he'll teach you and the best part about him is he truly cares and will spend as much time with you outside of class as you need you just have to ask and GO!

Dr. Susan is by far one of the best professors I've ever had. He teaches you to learn conceptually and not memorize everything. If you are wanting to go into the medical field, then take his class! You have to work, but you will learn a lot. I took his accelerated 4.5 week course and it was challenging. Study and you will learn SO much! Wonderful!

Wow! He is the best professor I have ever had hands down. I am currently taking his acclelerated 4.5 week class and I am in love. Yes, the class is difficult but you enjoy it as long as you put the work in. I wish I could take this class over and over. He drops 4 quiz grades and gives bonuses on tests. If you want to be in medicine take his class.

His class is not easy, but he very much cares about his students passing and if you put in the time you will be fine. With his class being difficult, it means you need to learn, and you will be better prepared for subsequent classes built on the material.

Difficult class, he does the best he can compressing all of the information he can into a 7 week format. Quiz (or multiple) every class, usually about 50 questions each, grades on a curve (loved this!) Clear assignments and very structured class schedule. He really makes sure you are prepared for the final, his tests made it feel like a breeze!

There are quizzes almost everyday, as long as you study the list he gives you then you should be fine! Study every night! He seems harsh on grading at first by all the red on the quizzes but hes actually extremely generous with grading. Most prof will count wrong by a simple mistake, but he actually will give you credit. Would take again!

Dr. Susan knows his stuff. His lectures seem very long but he goes into a lot of detail which for me was awesome! He's very organized, meaning he gives you a schedule and sticks to it! We had quizzes every day, as long as you study what he went over the last class you'll be ready. Notetaking and listening are very important!

If you like powerpoints than take another teacher, he goes over the course objectives. Quizzes were given every day but you'll read if you study the notes from the last class. For tests, he gives the quizzes back with the right answers to study and they really help! I would take him again! His grading is very generous!

Dr. Susan is a great professor. He really knows his stuff, and he genuinely wants his students to learn. You can't just memorize A&P information and expect to remember it all, so he's big on conceptual learning. If you do the work, you will be fine! He's a super generous grader in both LEC and LAB. He's also available for office hours.

This guy is the greatest teacher I've ever had. If you're looking for an easy walk through, than your in the wrong class. I took his class a year and a half ago and spent hours after class in his office helping to better understand the information. He is willing to do whatever it takes to help you succeed as long as you are willing to. Good Luck!

The most challenging class I've ever taken. The materials he provides are EXTREMELY helpful. Although it's really difficult to keep up with him in class. *He writes the departmental final.... so taking his class is like a massive prep for that final. If you can adjust to his style successfully, you'll appreciate his class. Pretty solid curves.

I absolutely loved this professor. He is accessible outside of class and answers emails in a fashionable time, and sends emails explaining everything you need to do for the day and week so there is no excuse for not knowing something. You will need to study 3+ hours a day not including class hours. So just do what is expected and you will succeed.

Dr. Susan is awesome. He gave me an extremely sound understanding of anatomy and physiology and explained things in a very memorable and easy-to-understand way.

over all awesome professor.

The professor made complex material feel seamless. He emphasized understanding concepts over memorization, using stories and drawings for visualization. The class wasn't easy; t was information-heavy but following his advice to print his materials and take detailed notes paid off. Reviewing tests to learn from mistakes was key.
