Professor Sanja is an asset to UTM. She's one of the newer profs hired by the Bio dept at UTM and I have to say, she has made the courses (bio202 + bio210) fun to learn. She is always willing to help and values critical criticism regarding her lectures. I do wish that she would keep lectures more structured but with time comes experience.

Very nice prof who is always there for her students, too bad she cannot convey material well at all. Test 1 was brutal, test 2 very easy, exam was terrible- content I've never heard of. Had her for another course before and I hope to not be in her class again.

She's really nice and is willing to help her students. She can be a bit unclear at times, but she'll clear up any questions, and she'll work with the deadlines for tests and assignments so that it'll be in favour of students' schedules. If you need a bio class to take, I'd definitely take hers! Her tests are also very fair!!!

GOOD PROF! Shes one of the very few profs who will actually put so much effort into clarifying content that may seem confusing. In terms of the way she taught the course, unfortunately I feel like I've learned most of the content from the textbook. Her tests were fair, the 2nd midterm being the easiest (i got a 94), along with the exam.

One of my few professors that actually cares about the students. If she notices that people aren't understanding the content or that the test didn't go well, she will review that material and even take the mark off the test. She is really smart and I enjoyed her lectures. Labs were tough, work hard and you can get a good grade.

Although Sanja can be a bit unorganized at times, she was a great professor who explained things as clear as possible. There isn't much point going to lectures because she bases everything off the lecture slides along with information in the textbook. Overall, great course, super applicable, and wouldn't want anyone else teaching it :)

Prof's really cool and nice (favorite prof). Her tests are super easy, it's so easy to get a 4.0 in this class. If you just read the damn textbook. Not even the textbook, just look at her slides, all the test questions are from her slides. Its a physiology course, so obviously some memorization is required, but OVERALL BEST CLASS EVER WOOO!

Sanja is a great prof! She's engaging and enthusiastic. Her tests are easy as long as you study! She only tests you on the things she has in her lecture slides, nothing else. She's funny and gives great examples and tips for remembering things. Heads up this course has a lot of memorization, if you find that hard, then it might not be for you.

She enjoys what she teaches and is pretty clear. Tries to make future test better with a lot of feedback. She recently increased the amounts of test, one every two weeks which is much better than one huge cumulative one. Tests are mostly from the lecture slides and she will tell you that so believe her. She likes to make sure you understand.

SUCH A NICE PROF. She actually cares about her students and wants you to succeed in the course. didn't need to touch the textbook everything is on the slides but its not clear unless you go to class

One of the best biology profs at utm. she was always there to help you. Also, her tests are not hard, they are based on her lectures. so if you just read her slides, you will get a 4.0 for sure.

A really caring professor. Always does her best to address questions and encourages you to connect concepts (seen in test application questions).She asks for feedback constantly to improve her teaching style (you will see changes for the better while taking the course). Makes lectures fly by.

Sanja is a very good professor. She actually cares about her students and always asks for feedback so that she can adjust the way she is teaching in a way that is best suited for the class. Her tests are also not bad as long as you put the work in for the course.

Professor Sanja is very caring, understanding, and enthusiastic. The problems are the way she can be disorganized during lecture and the unclear wording of her MC questions.

She's great

At least she is good at teaching

To prepare for tests, you should mainly go over the slides and your lecture notes. Make sure to make good notes and review the LC questions/answers. The textbook is good for extra details incase you missed something and for labelling.

Prof. Sanja is a great prof, the course was easy. In fact, we only had to memorize 20 muscles in one unit, which was a joke for an anatomy course. Study two days before and youll still be fine, easiest 90 in my life.

Lectures activity sheets are easy ways to get marks. Labs are fun, learned a lot about birds this way also another easy way to get marks. A lot of assignments but can be flexible with deadlines; grading is fair and good feedback given. Lots of opportunities for extra credit bird watching. Tests were fair. Really enjoyed the course, great prof!

She's great! Her lectures are interesting and her tests are super easy. Readings are not required as she only tests concepts that have been mentioned in class and are found in the slides.

Prof Sanja was one of my favorite profs, simply because she is such a warm and caring person. She always has her students' best interest in mind and goes above and beyond with office hours, group tests, and more to help everyone succeed. Test questions were sometimes odd, but she usually accepted multiple answers if necessary. Amazing prof!

There were 6 tests but because of their predictable format and content it was easy to do well. Lectures were okay. Definitely helped solidify course concepts and are important. Shes very understanding and helps where she can. Would take another course with her.

The course was awesome! Make sure to pay attention during class--she drops hints about what's on midterms. She's very approachable & loves class discussion. Tutorials are great for honing skills relevant to the social-cultural aspect of healthcare and accessibility issues. There's diff. grading options; if you don't like tests, you can opt out!

SHE WAS AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

one of the best profs i've had. very caring and understanding of her students. goes above and beyond to ensure students have all the resources available to make the course go smooth. even has drop in student hours to relax and play games and just get to know your prof and meet with other students. tests are not hard but course content is heavy.

Prof Frlog is by far one of the best professors I've had to date. Very supportive and considerate about your time and stress management. She structured the class excellently and much better when compared to other professors teaching online classes. Lecturettes were extremely informative and the textbook was very important to support learning.

She's amazing and truly cares for her students. She was very considerate given everything going on and her tests were fair. She was flexible too and overall a great prof.

Hands-down the most caring and sweet professor I have ever had. She truly cares about her students and wants them to do well, especially during times like these. The combination of asynchronous and synchronous lectures really helped with feeling connected with the class. Her grading scheme is flexible to ensure your mark matches w what you know!

Prof Sanja was absolutely amazing. A DELIGHT this semester. She truly cares about her students, and you can definitely tell. 10/10 would take again.

I'm genuinely sad that my classes with her are done. I've never had a more helpful and thoughtful prof in my university than her. She is a real gem and you can honestly discuss anything with her. I would highly recommend her.

She is a 5/5 no doubt best prof I have had at UTM thus far! Amazingly kind, considerate and overall great person who cares for her students and their well being. She offers so many grading options to make sure it fits your schedule. Tests are fair, and all her customized video lecturettes condense the material you need. No textbook needed!

Professor Sanja is very caring and willing to help her students out. The mark breakdown of the course was rather fair, however the team term tests component was often harshly marked by the TAs. Overall Sanja was very understanding and she made sure to look into all concerns the students had about the course and the content.

she is so sweet and caring. I love her class and would def take again 10/10

She is the BEST professor I have ever had in my entire life. She is caring, loving, accommodating, understanding, supporting, passionate, .... I don't even have the words to describe her. I love her 10/10. will take her again and again and again and forever!

simply amazing. If you run into ANY problem, simply talk to her and she will help you find the best solution.

the best and amazing!

recommended 200%

very accessible outside of class, find the best solutions to problems

100% recommended

most accessible professor I ever had at UofT

goes above and beyond to help students achieve their goals.

She does the most to accommodate all her students needs in order to help them achieve their best possible grades

this woman deserves the world. she was so extremely accommodating and constructed such a course that it was meant to help you get the best marks possible. this class' grading scheme is based on your liking! god bless this angel

Loved this class! They only thing was early mornings for tutorials (8am) but it was a good time to see the birds. Lots of mini assignments that can bring up your grade, just don't forget to submit them (each worth like 1 percent)

Very kind towards students, and explains concepts well. Always willing to be flexible and help students out. Expect to actually know the content for tests. My only real complaint was that tutorials and labs for this class were garbage, and felt like they contributed little to actually understanding course content.

I really liked this class, especially that she included both online and in person options for people that like to work on assignments at their own pace!

She is such a sweet heart. She designed the course for students and unlike some profs really cares about the students in her class. She allows you to pick which grading method you want (you can choose just exams vs exams and assignments) so many options. Its amazing to see someone like her. So glad I got her and appreciate her efforts.

She is an absolutely amazing prof, gave us over 16 options on how we wanted the weightings of projects to be distributed, I wish she was teaching BIO209:(

Prof. Sanja truly cares about her students and it shows through the various choices she provides to students including showing your own assessment methods. Prof. Sanja makes it easier for you to understand through her video and in-person lectures. I highly recommend taking this course with her as you will walk out truly having learnt something!

Prof Sanja is one of a kind. I've never met a professor who catered their entire course to the success and comfort of their students, and she is exactly that. She had many grading options for you to personalize the work you do. My biggest problem was that there are no lectures and only videos + discussions, and how disorganized her Quercus page is.

She's a sweetheart

Amazing prof! Definitely recommend. Cares so much about her students and actually puts in the effort to ensure they understand the content.

She actually cares about her students and has very flexible grading. She was such an amazing prof.

Professor Sanja had a flexible grading scheme that helped a lot with your grades in my opinion. The textbook readings were not too much, the content and lectures are interesting. The class I took (BIO208 Physiology and Anatomy) was difficult because of how heavy the content is and how much you need to know, not on fault of the Professor

Great professor! She is very respected but never intimidating. Genuinely enjoyed the course because of her. She also allowed and asked the students' opinions regarding ways to improve the course and which writing assignments we prefer. Lots of assignments but professor and the TAs are so helpful. You can always see her passion for the course.

Sanja's tests are relatively fair and she will provide practice tests. Her grading is split among many things, quizzes, tests, and labs, which helps with your final grade. Also, she spends a lot of time with students to help them understand. She will dedicate a lot of hours and Zoom sessions for students to ask questions.

Easy to keep up with, tests are easy to study for with lecture slides and the labs are fun

Really good lecturer. Essentially all of the test content will come from her slides. Not intimidating at all and very approachable outside of class in office hours. Test questions are a little confusing sometimes due to wording, but they are fair. An A in this course is quite doable if you review consistently. Watch out for labelling questions.

Very nice professor, definitely cares, and gives multiple options on what you want your exams and assignments to be weighted. Only concerns, there were a couple mistakes in her lecture slides that went uncorrected until a lot later and wording confusion on exam questions, also the multiple assignments can make the course have a heavy workload

Best prof at utm by far. She cares so much about her students and making everything accessible to them. She only tests on lectures and makes everything so much easier for her students by giving different grading options. My favourite prof ever!

Prof Sanja is one of the best profs I've ever had. I would recommend taking this course with her as well as any other course she teaches. Provides a ton of different grading options for students that prefer tests and students that prefer assignments. Just put in some effort and you can easily get a 4.0 in the course

One of the few professors that genuinely cares about her students. She has an excellent grading scheme and allows all students to do their best at what they're good at.

Amazing Prof , I love her, she is so helpful, and BIO202 and BIO209 are NOT bird courses, put in the effort for the grade you want, or else you will get a 60,

Prof Sanja is a sweet person and always tries to make her class easier. The best thing is her multiple grading options catered to everyone! However, her lecture slides are really unorganized and I don't like studying off them. Her tests are not the best as her wording is very poor and it gets really really confusing.

Dr. Sanja is such an understanding and caring prof. Despite the complex content, she makes her courses seem doable through her flexible grading criteria, recorded lectures, and accessibility via extra office hours. Truly a respectable professor who you can tell cares about her students and the content she teaches.

Super nice, gives flexible grading options so you can pick how you want to be graded based on your needs. Her active learning model made the class interesting and engaging :)

amazing prof. would recommend.

amazing professor; well-spoken, knowledgable and will go out of her way to help you understand the course content. lecture slides were more than enough info to do well in the class, and her flexible grading options are great!! we need more professors like her

Incredibly accomodating. Lots of leniency on test grading. Be sure to engage with lecture content since there is still a lot to memorize, but she gives a lot of ways your mark can stay high (quizzes, labs) and mcqs can sometimes have multiple correct answers. Very friendly and polite in person, relaxing to be around. Highly recommend.

THIS PROF IS GOATED REAL SHI

Sanja is an amazing prof who cares about student learning. With multiple grading options and helpful resources like Unstuckstudy, you can easily get a great grade in this class.

Probably one of the best secondary year profs I've had. She allows students to choose from different grading models which was really helpful. Lectures are really easy to understand and midterms are directly from lectures. Overall really good prof, would recommend.
