Very good teacher... you dont even need to waste your money on that $70 text book...

Robin is such a fantastic teacher - friendly, helpful, and quite a fashion statement for herself. For this class you don't need to waste your money on the required book. Her notes clearly come from the book, and that is what will be on her tests.

Great teacher. Straight to the point. All you need to do is show up to class and take her notes from powerpoint. Everything on her review sheet, WILL BE ON THE TEST!

she is such a nice teacher! she is so clear, and makes it interesting! I love her teaching methods..very easy! I wish she taught other classes!

Yes, as everyone else said Robyn is awesome. Great class, don't waste the money on the text book just have to buy the Dietplus CD. She makes the class easy to understand and pretty easy to pass. You even learn a couple things about Nutrition. Awesome.

By far one of the best teachers SCC has employed! Her class is easy because she is great at teaching! What she lectures on will be on the test! The book is not really necessary although it can be helpful when looking up certain things.

A in the class because she made it possible. i took it three years ago, and i still remember everything. dont buy the book, just go to class. it will change the way you eat. i am a lot more healthy, i dont eat a lot that i used to. i have lost weight as well. take her, you will enjoy her class.

Such an awesome and helpful instructor. Even with overcoming life's obstacles (fighting to survive), I was able to pass with a B. I remember everything in her class and can't help but apply my knowledge to my help. She really makes you feel guilty about bad habits. Helped me quit smoking!

A great teacher who makes class fun! You can tell that she enjoys teaching the subject. She is very knowledgable. Don't buy the textbook. Go to class and take notes. The study guides for the tests will help you get an A.

I took this teacher online. It was all laid out and really easy. You were able to work on your own time along with taking the test. (A week to complete each section) She is very helpful and a great teacher.

The teacher really does make all the difference. Not only is she exteremely knowlegeable in the subject, but teaches in a way that is conducive to everyone. Keeps things simple, as a result makes the class fun and easy to learn. The only class you'll have to TRY to do poorly in.

Really easy class to take. I still use what I learned from her. She gives notes and it is very helpful come test time.

Fab-u-lous! Systma's class inspired me to major in Nutrition. Not only is the information life changing and interesting, she makes it fun and easy to understand.

I really loved this class! Sytsma really made everything interesting. I highly recommend anyone who is thinking of taking nutrition to take Sytsma!!

This is a VERY interesting class...mrs. systsma is SO FUN! and it's pretty dang easy too!

great teacher. easy class. tests easy all from lecture, MC/short eassy. lectures from slides, if you takes notes then you dont need the book.

Robin is such a great teacher and i took her when she was pregnant so she was very laid back. I learned so much from her and enjoyed her class more than any other i have taken at Solano! Don't buy the book you won't need it as long as you take her notes and you'll be fine. Her tests were easy but you learn a lot from the material.

Awesome teacher!! As long as you show up for class and take notes and study for the test you will get an A. Gives test review sheets, so you know what is on the test. Tests are easy as long as you study. Makes class very interesting and she is very nice! Highly recommended!

I took this class on online, and it was awesome. Tips for survival are to do the weekly discussion, and read the weekly chapter. Trust me if you put in behind. it will hurt you, and her lecture notes help to a certain extent. Her test are not bad at all. Returns emails in a good amount of time. High Recommend!

I took her online course. She was very fair. Very helpful and responsive when I asked a question. Enjoyed her class. I would recommend her class.

She is a great teacher. Her class isn't easy, but if you work hard, then you will be fine. The tests are moderately hard, but she gives extra credit if you need to make up the points. I wouldn't recommend her if you plan on slacking in the class, because you will fail with her. However, if you don't mind working hard, she is a great choice.

She's very informative, and I learned much more than I thought I was going to! She gives you all the info you need to study for tests, but you still need to read the text. The book's website is also VERY helpful! Lecture is fun and upbeat. I really enjoyed her class.

She was one of the best teachers I've had so far at Solano. I highly recommend Robin. She is very helpful and very nice. I learned so much about health and nutrition from her, I feel like a healthier person.

She is VERY easy! i did not even pay attention very much in class and I got an "A". her notes will tell you everything for the test and she gives you study guides. so easy.

Loved the class, you will learn alot just by doing your PDA (and get lots of points so don't slack). Attendence is a must especially if you do not have a book. I didn't need one at all this semester and im pulling a B+, tests arent too hard, just attend class and you should pass no problem. would take again!!

Wow, this class should be mandatory to all, she is a good teacher and makes the information come alive, really makes you take personal accountability for your health! She lets you drop one test(yeay)so I should? have an A --she deserves a hot vote as she great hair, always tries to dress cute and accessorize well :)

I am taking this class online now. She is not necessarily a bad teacher, but not fantastic either. You will learn a lot, but can easily lose a lot of points for wording something different than she would prefer even if it accomplishes the same task.

Robin is a great teacher. If you miss a class her whole lecture is online where you can print it out. Half of all the tests are essay questions and you get a cheat sheet for the final. She is very interested in what she teaches.

took her class online. read and study the book and you will do great. i didn't read the book and just skimmed it before the quizzes each week and still got an A. also weekly discussion that you do have to put effort in. Not an easy A but if you put in at least half way decent effort you can pull it off. also a big project, but easy to do.

I took her online Nutrition class. I wouldn't call it easy because you have to stay on top of due dates and make sure you're logging in and you always know what's going on, but if you do that you'll pass for sure. I would call it an easy A. You have tests and papers that take time, but with the book there is no reason you can't get good grades.

She is amazing. Makes everything so interesting. This class should definitely be mandatory. I learned so much! Nutrition is a huge part of my life now. I love her! NEED TO STUDY. Easy A IF YOU STUDY.

awsome trully recomend..

I loved this class! She kept it really interesting. She's always there to answer your questions and she's always giving some kind of extra credit to boost your grade. The study guides are always helpful and her notes are very relevant to her tests. Definitely recommend! Study, and you will do great.

Great class! Very knowledgeable. Easy A if you follow the syllabus. Makes class interesting. Is very helpful. Loved her class!

I LOVED this class. Robyn is an AWESOME teacher, took time to answer any questions you had. Explained the material in a fun, easy to understand way. Gave a lot of opportunities to boost your grade with extra credit. Gave you study guides for all exams - if you studied, you did well! I HIGHLY recommend her to EVERYONE! Thanks Robyn!!

She is very great teacher. In her class is funny, and she tries her best let her students pass her class. Sometimes she gave us take-home exam. Her big project is personal diet study. It is also pretty easy. and also she gave up 30 point extra credit!!!

tests, a 2 part project (which is EASY, but LONG), 5 easy inclass exercises, and a final. VERY nice lady, really cares about her students,wants you to succeed. If you're a decent student, you'll love her and do just fine.Super understanding too, i forgot to turn in a take-home test and she let me explain and gave full points! DO THE EXTRA CREDIT!!

Sytsma is EXTREMELY straight forward. She gives study guides for every test and the test is exactly the study guide. You must do the personal diet stundy which is superrrrrrrr easy, just time consuming. Only hard thing about this class is that its so simple, you forget to do things. Gives 7 in class asignments, only counts best 5.

Robin is great, if your going to take nutrition take her class, attend the class NOT online. Rarley used the book. She uses power points and she posts them online for you to print. She offers study guides and lets you drop one exam. Got to use a paper front and back for final exam. She is very helpful. This class goes well with mricobiology.

This class was structured very well! The information was clear, what she wanted from you was clear, what was going to be on the tests was also very clear... She doesn't try to trick you with confusing test questions. Just study and know what's on the outline and you'll be fine. Wish more teachers taught like her.

Professor Sytsma is an easy grader. Class attendance is not really necessary, just don't miss out too much or you might get lost in the course.

Awesome professor and super super easy! I loved taking her nutrition class it was so interesting. She drops your lowest exam score so that is nice. Her lectures are clear and pretty easy to follow.

Very awesome professor!! Super nice and very easy going. I actually looked forward to her class when I was taking it. Drops your lowest exam grade at the end of the course. Very fun and very easy class over all!

Prof. Robin is the best professor so far that i have met. Her class is really interesting and she make it easier for her students. She give many extra credit opportunities and is always there for you. I highly recommend to take her.

Professor was really nice and generous. She gave out extra credit often, and her review guides reflected what was going to be on the exams. Very easy; I ended with over 100%

This class is fun and interesting. She is very clear on her expectations. If you do the work and pay attention to the lectures you'll definitely get an A. I would recommend you take her class! Love her!!

May have been the easiest class I've taken. I was sitting around 110% right before the final. Tons of extra credit opportunities, you get to drop an exam, and reviews tell you exactly what's going to be on each exam. Great personality. Lectures are mostly powerpoints, but she goes into more detail than what is on the slide.

You almost don't need the textbook with Processor Sytsma! Her lectures are so clear and easy to understand. She handled a classroom of well of 50 students like a pro!

She's a great teacher! Easy class if you listen during the lectures. The extra credit she gives out for the test was easy to do if you're following in class. Would take her again if she taught a different class.

She makes learning about nutrition interesting. You won't want to miss class because the lectures can a lot of information. Your grade is based on the exams, a few assignments on Canvas and your personal diet study. You have chances for 10 extra points on the exams. Study guides are given and notes are allowed for the final exam.

Great personality, easy going and gives lots of extra credit opportunities.

Very nice and out going teacher. She give extra credit and really good study guides This class was an easy A! If you fail, its on you because she literally gives you every chance to do well. I missed a lot class due to work but I got over a 100% in class because she sets you up for success!

Robin is a great professor. Very nice woman, and her class is super easy to pass. I got a C+ because I literally am stupid and didn't really study LOL but that's okay. I am actually super satisfied with my grade. The grading criteria is clear and the only big parts of your grade were the tests and a personal diet study. Super easy! Can't go wrong!

Shes super nice and funny! Highly recommend to take her class in person. You wouldnt want to miss lectures because they are straightforward and easy to understand. Grading is organized and lots of extra credit opportunities. Its worth putting in the effort to study for exams. Learned so much from her class!

I took her online class and absolutely loved it. She is organized and is very clear about her instructions. I definitely suggest anyone to take this professor for Nutrition, you will learn a lot. She also allowed notes for the final exam, always a plus.

Professor Sytsma is probably the nicest professor I have ever had. She is very caring and approachable. The class was mostly powerpoints, and homework was assigned maybe once a month. She tells you everything that is on the exams before they are given. There are a few opportunities for extra credit. Love her!

Robin Sytsma is a very good teacher. I took this class online and she was very helpful through email and canvas. I totally recommend her!

I took her online class and it was easy! Be prepared to read a lot, and make sure you keep yourself up to date on the modules and you should be able to pass her class easily.

The cycle every week was to read the chapter, read her lecture (which was a summary of the textbook), turn in discussion post & then quiz on 2 chapters every other week. Kinda annoying that she doesn't unlock all modules to get ahead. Doesn't accept late work for discussions and quiz - you will get a 0. Just make sure to be on top of everything.

I enjoyed the class, it wasnt too difficult but you have to pay attention in class. Study for the tests! Be sure to keep up to date with the assignments online. As long as you read the notes and study you should be okay.

She's great! If you just do the work, there is reason you shouldn't get an A. She is very clear on what to do on all assignments. I took this class because I had to, but I ended up learning so much because part of it is assessing your own nutrition. So you will learn a lot about nutrition and a lot about your own health while taking this class!

I returned to school after aprox 17 years and I was afraid to dive into the class, specially because it was an online course. This Professor communicated well throughout the course. She quickly responded to my emails and clarified any questions. There is a lot of work involved, but the instructions are pretty clear and easy to follow.

Professor Sytsma is amazing! She truly cares about her students and makes the class very fun. The course material can be a lot but she gives out study guides that are extremely helpful and prepare you for her test. She also offers a lot of extra credit assignments and all of the answers to the assignments are straight from the book.

You have to work hard to get an A, Shes a tough grader!! Gives short answer test on the final, she uses turntin for this one! She also uses turntin to check if you plagiarized on the written assignments! you have to participate on the weekly discussions or you will be graded down The biggest assignment she grades is the personal diet study

Robin has a very clear grading criteria. She is pretty fast at replying to emails. There's only discussions, quizzes every other week, personal diet study, and a final. She doesn't let you work ahead but overall, the class isn't that hard. She gives extra credit opportunities. I enjoyed & learned a lot from this class!

There is a lot of reading in the class and a discussion every week. As there are aspects of anatomy, I found some chapters difficult but, aside from that and the reading, everything else is fairly easy. Her lectures help summarize the sections of the chapter which helped a lot when I was reading. I learned a lot in this class.

Professor Sytsma is a good professor. Her lectures and assignments are engaging and makes the topics easier to understand. The only hard thing is putting some time into reading from the textbook and taking notes from it. Overall, you'll be fine as long as you do them.

This class was pretty fun! I took a few classes this semester and I dedicated soo much time to this class - at least 30 hrs per week. Lots of reading and tests were a bit tricky

Exams were online and open note. No quizzes or any discussion assignments. Lectures were very straightforward followed with some in-class assignments including a personal diet study at the start and a review of it including an essay at the end of the semester. Professor Sytsma is not too difficult and very caring. Would recommend.

She is very kind towards her students. Very understanding. The class mostly consists of smartbook assignments, a personal paper, and a few exams. As long as you follow along with her lectures, you'll be fine.
