A&P II summer session - Very patience, hands-on, straight forward, NO tricks, explains things extremely well, open to ask questions, writes his own notes, text not needed, will need lab books. A&P II is a hard course in itself because of amount of material content covered. However if your willing to put in the time, your getting a QUALITY teacher.

Hands down - best professor I ever had! He makes A&P understandable & fun. He does not want his students to fail. He is so funny, extremely fair, & flexible. An absolute joy to be in his class. Study his notes & diagrams, put the work in and you will pass. He is very approachable. I can't wait to take A&P II with him over the summer! He's awesome!

Profesor Collis is amazing at teaching his students! Hes clear, detailed and very structured with his content. I took his A&P 2 class on campus and loved every moment. His goal is for his students to learn not only the material but also real world studies. If you put the work in to pass, he provides all the necessary tools and resources! A+!

Professor Collis is a gem & truly valuable professor. He provides really great examples, mnemonic devices, & fun facts. Open & patient with questions, & is very clear about what you'll be tested on. I thought I was terrible at science based on my high school experience. He made A&P so enjoyable, he will always be remembered.

When I enrolled for the class I was told by one of the WCC staff that he is a great teacher. I certainly attest it . He is a wonderful person and a tutor. I do not agree with some of the students comment. I say the exams are very reasonably easy compare to the other papers. I am very happy and glad to be his student. Safeena

Professor Collis is probably the best instructor I've ever had (and I have a prior bachelors and masters degree). He organizes and explains the content so well, shares clear, interesting and funny illustrations, and answers all questions enthusiastically. He loves to teach, and he's excellent at it. If you see a spot open in his class, jump on it.

Although the course is very difficult, robert collis is an amazing professor and explains the course very well. My advice is to take this class in person, it is way too lecture heavy to be taken online. be prepared to watch endless pre recordings, connect assignments, lots and lots of studying. You must devote alot of time to this class so be ready

I was having a very hard time retaining the topics because I had a lot going on in my life, but I am glad to say that professor help me a lot during his office hours. I strongly advise you to take this professor. The class itself is hard but he will make it worth your while when you take it with him. The best teacher for both A&P 1and 2.

Just take this guy for any/all science classes you need. He provides frankly, way more information than you'd expect, and ENSURES you have all you need to pass. A&P in general, is a very study-heavy course, so the more thorough the information, the better chance you'll have. Do NOT hesitate in taking this professor!

His lectures are clear & informative. He provides so much additional materials online that I used his recorded lectures to study. 100% recommend taking his classes!

GREAT professor for both Ap1 & Ap2. He explains the topics so you can understand and allows you to absorb the information in a fun quriky way. I would definitely take him again if I had the opportunity to. He gives all the information necessary but you must pay attention and take good notes because the test are a bit difficult and many questions.

Professor Collis makes this tough course engaging. His clear explanations and creative mnemonics help you grasp the material. Attend class, use the textbook, and try Unstuck AI - it's a game-changer for A&P study prep. Overall, a rewarding experience with a caring instructor.

A&P is a very difficult class but professor collis made it so easy to understand! You can tell he loves what he does and cares about his students. Of course there is a lot of material but he breaks it down so well. He is definitely one of the best professors on campus :)
