Not clear, rambles in lecture and with her accent it make the class that much harder. does not seem like she wants to help you pass in anyway, paranoid about students using their cellphones and getting on facebook with their laptops during lecture. Its diffuclt to ask questions in class. wouldn NOT reccomend.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND! I have never met a teacher more against phones. ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY & points are taken off for doing other work. Class is almost 3 hours & she NEVER let us out early. It's agonizing since the lectures are very boring & so ridiculously long. I was scolded like a child for slouching. Doesn't really answer your questions

No phones. Attendance mandatory & don't be late. Gives power points. Quizzes taken during class lectures. Test are after every 2-3 chapters and taken at home on blackboard. Has a heavy accent (to me). Easy A if you attend class everyday.

She's adorable and very sweet, a little crazy. Attendance is a MUST. Tardiness will cause you to lose attendance points as well. Students think she's being overdramatic but I think she's trying to teach us to be responsible. Labs are pretty cool. Strict cell phone policy because she really wants you to pay attention. Tests are online. Nice lady

Lots of points (weight wise) for attendance. She mainly uses power points but also doodles on the board so you can see whats going through her mind. If you participate in class she allows for online exams, even for finals. But you have to be able to keep up with her when she goes over the chapter. Don't miss any assignments (really easy).

The teacher is very strict about attendance, and participation. Her accent and tone makes it difficult sometimes to comprehend what she is saying. Most of her tests are online, however if you do not participate in the class, she will give an in-class test instead of online. Overall, I did not enjoy this class one bit. Recommend not to take it.

If you ever wanted to contemplate dropping out of college take this class. This has to be the absolute best way to make you want to walk out the classroom and go sell drugs rather than go to college. Her lectures are awful, she goes off topic every 30 mins, she treats you like you're in grade school, I'm convinced she got her med license off ebay.

The online quizzes she gives are the same questions on the exams so studying with other people and trading quiz questions will get you a high grade!

She is very dedicated to her students and tries her best to give us mnemonics so that we can learn and remember the course material better. Because of COVID-19 all school courses have been moved online and she conducts voluntary zoom meetings regularly.

DO NOT TAKE THIS TEACHER! Professor Beg does not "teach" at all. no assignments, notes, learning practice or reviews are given. only weekly quizzes and exams. (through Honorlock!). Everything is automatically graded without feedback on what was right/wrong. Only interaction is passive aggressive weekly mass emails reminding of due dates.

Please don't take her. Anatomy and physiology is a class that has so much information and it's not taught by her at all. The assignments, tests, and quizzes aren't even graded by her, but by the platforms she uses. She is not helpful when asked for advice. Will belittle you. Her TA's are helpful but not enough to fully understand the material.

I promise all of these negative are the truth. Online, she is terrible. She belittles you and won't directly answer any questions. She gives little insight on what the tests will cover other than them being multiple choice and T/F. I learned more from Quizlet and the TA's than Dr. Beg. She added our midterms onto the syllabus 2 weeks before. AWFUL!

Do not take her. I understand that this course is difficult but she makes it almost impossible with her lack of care and her inability to teach her students! All she does is post hour long videos of a random Professor from YouTube. No PPT, no guidance on the exams, and when you ask for help she basically belittles you. Us students deserve better.

Uses HONORLOCK. Shes on a witch hunt for cheaters, but its ironic because she doesnt teach AT ALL- the only time we hear from her is when she sends sarcastic due date reminders. Belittles you when you email her. All her lectures are pulled from YouTube. The TAs run the practice zoom meetings. Worst class Ive ever taken at Valencia.

You're probably reading through these reviews thinking, "she can't be that bad, she has some good reviews" she is that bad, do not take her, you will learn NOTHING from her. I would bet my life on the fact that the recent good review was written by Dr. Beg herself. Don't do it. She does not tell you what to expect on exams and doesn't help.

Professor is awful! She does not teach or try to help out her students at all. In fact, I think she finds it enjoyable to watch her students on HONORLOCK fail every test. When students tried to reach out to each other to form a study group to somehow pass, she immediately shut that down! I feel I'm owed my tuition back from the school.

GO FIND ANOTHER PROFESSOR! She doesn't provide the necessary studying guides and piles on a bunch of repeated junk. The layout of her modules are a mess and needs to be fixed. If you score poorly on exams it will be hard to get back on good grading terms due to how low the common assignments are worth. Her recent ratings low for a reason.

Dr. Beg is first and foremost a Doctor, and is very knowledgeable as such. She knows what she's teaching, and you can learn a lot (and you will have to learn a lot in Anatomy and Physiology). The tests are hard and closed notes, but there are a plethora of other assignments that balance out the grades of those if you do bad. She's also funny.

This is honestly the worst professor I have ever had. She didn't teach at all. She told us stories for 1/2 the time in class that went completely off tangent. She would make us come to class prepared to give answers to questions she didn't teach us about. She made us teach ourselves then told us we were a disappointment if we didn't know the answer

Professor Beg is okay.... that being said she might be one of the best professors because the rest are terrible. She can get a little too distracted sometimes and off topic but she means well. It is hard but doable. The class itself is very intense and involves you needing to really set time to study. But passable! As I am passing!
