She is a great teacher. Very passionate about her work. She's tough though and wants you to try your best, but she is always available to help and genuinly wants her students to succeed. More teachers should be like her.
Awesome teacher. She is so nice and helpful. The class is hard because there is a lot that you have to know before entering a medical career and she wants to help you do well in class and in the future. Lots of opportunity to earn extra credit. Gives you overhead notes. A+!
Very good professor and nice too! She really knows what she is teaching and she wants you to learn and became a good professional. The class is hard, but she gives good notes and the reviews(before the exams) help a lot. I wish she taught A&PII; I would take her again.
Awesome professor. A+++++
Excellent professor and passionate about her work, I wish she taught A&PII
Awesome teacher. She is so nice and helpful. The class is hard, but she gives good notes and the reviews because there is a lot that you have to know before entering a medical career and she wants to help you do well in class and in the future. She really knows what she is teaching. A+
I took this class in summer session and it was a lot of work but she is the first teacher to teach me so well! She is helpful, clear and really cares! Gives extra points for effort. A+
Awesome Teacher!! She is so creative with class activities and assignments. Her directions are crystal clear and she's always willing to do whatever it takes to help you. If you really work hard and attend all the classes, you can be successful in her class. I definitely recommend her (1,000 times over).
EVEN THOUGH IT IS A VERY SHORT TERM FOR THE SUMMER- I THOUGHT SHE WAS MORE THAN FAIR IN GIVING EXACT DATES - I MEAN THAT IS WHAT A SYLLABUS IS FOR - RIGHT? - SHE IS VERY HELPFUL AND VERY DOWN TO EARTH- LEARN TO PAY ATTENTION AND NOTES. ITS SCIENCE - ITS NOT SUPPOSE TO BE EASY. JUST LISTEN AND REVIEW HER NOTES AND STAY ON TOP OF THINGS-YOU'LL BE OK
She's a great person.She's strict-follows the guidelines by the dept.There are no make-ups for anything, but there is extra credit.If u want to pass, all u have to do is take home what she teaches and STUDY it.Isn't that what you're supposed to do in college?I think it depends on u-if u are willing to do work and study, then she is a great teacher.
Awesome! I loved her lectures and she is very helpful.
She's great.
very nicea and helpfull. her accent is a little thick but i was able to understand her
AP in general is a challenging course. I started with B to C and I ended up with a great A. This means I didn't give up. more than 50% of the class either got dropped off or quit. Dr. Kanani is very helpful, and I am against those people complaining about her accent. Guys she is a surgeon, and she knows what she is talking about. If you that kind o
She is one of the best professors I have had. She's very nice, understanding, teaches the subject very well, knows what she's talking about.
Goes too fast. Acts like we should have thorough understanding 1st time she goes over material. Better professors. Oral surgeon, NOT licensed to practice in US. Too sensitive to be a professor in the states. Does not understand American humor. Take Dr. Fran Frierson.
Dr Kanani is the simply THE BEST! Very knowledgeable, her lectures are crystal clear, and gives lots of opportunities to improve grades. I'm honored and lucky to have her as my A&P teacher. I recommend her 100%.
Took her for A&P, knows what she's talking about. The amount of info is ridiculous. You need to study every night to pass her test.
First of all, whoever said she was hard are either crazy or lazy. She gives you about 10% extra credit, lecture note, and study guide. She also drop 1 exam out of 3. I really don't know what to say if you can't get an A in this class. I study about 20 hrs each week. I know a lots of students are waiting to take her again. I highly recommend her.
She breakdowns complex information into words anyone can understand. She teaches so you can do it with ease and when you look back you say, " I did it"
Professor Kanani is a very sweet teacher. She will answer all of your questions to the best of her ability. She gives tons of extra credit and drops an exam grade. Just spend a few hours a week studying and you will be fine.
I took her class and found it extremely useful. She sets her expectations high and tries to get the best out of you. She remembers you because he cares :)
I could tell this teacher is dedicated. Not just to her job, but to her students success. I wish I could take her for A&P 2, because she is VERY ORGANIZED AND PRECISE. NO UNPLEASANT SURPRISES WITH HER =)... make sure you study!!
Dr Kanani is awesome, she wants the best for all of her students. She gives a lot of extra credit and also her class is base on power points, not necessary to buy the book. Make sure you study for the test and you will be fine. Great teacher! I wish I could take her for APII
What a awesome teacher. She is extremely knowledgeable and generous. This subject is a challenge and is designed to stimulate your mind. Professor Kanani provides all the tools needed it's up to you to put in the work. The test are challenging but you get study guides and extra credit to boost your grade. She is very detailed & excellent teacher
She is very knowledgeable and knows her stuff. Is clear on teaching but not clear on what is needed to be known, person below me lies does not give study guides, practicals are fast paced not enough time. Exams are fair but as said teacher does not give idea on what could be on the test. Too much information is expected to be known for class!
She is awesome.
Dr. Kanani is a great prof; she's EXTREMELY knowledgeable in what she teaches. And definitely knows her stuff and if you need help she's more than happy to assist you in any way. All in all a good course.
It took me a while to fully appreciate this professor, but now that I "get" her I really like her and hope she teaches for a long time to come. She is very helpful and does her best to explain.
Knowledgable - NO Study guides - covers way more info than you are tested on - timed lab testes very stressful. This is not a class you can breeze through so plan on dedicating LOTS of hours studying and reading the text. She is knowledgable but jumps all over the place. I got a "C" and worked my butt off to get it!
One of the BEST, very knowledgeable & cares a lot about her students. Gives study guide for lab tests. For other tests just follow her lecture notes. I?ll give her A+. Definitely take her again.
If you want to learn take her! If you want just an easy A look some place else. Her tests are not hard if you study her PP and assignments. Very organized, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable. I would take her again for AP2 but she does not teach it.
she is REALLY the best choice for teaching AP; she is teaching very well and explains every single thing in a clear way,even low IQ students can learn in the class and they are interested to pay attention to her; SHAME on VALENCIA that she is not teaching AP2 and MICROBIOLOGY but some professor who are not able to talk, are teaching MICRO.........
I have learned more from her than ANY other prof. She made me want to learn more. I had NO interest in this class. Very encouraging and very thoughtful. Thank You :)
She is a beautiful person and an excellent teacher. She TRULY cares. Her organized PowerPoints and study guides are excellent. She gives you all you need and is generous with Xtra-C. A TON of material is covered so it's easy to lose track during class, but she makes studying managable. Get past the first 4-5 weeks and you're clear. TAKE HER NOW!!!
Dr. Kanani is very nice and really good prof, she is very clear, willing to help. The course material can be overwhelming at times but she is there to help. A+++++
amazing.
One of the best AP professors I have ever taken. Yes, there is a lot of work, yes she expects a lot. You are in college, you should be prepared for that. You WILL learn a lot in this course and it is very well worth taking if you take pride in receiving a good education.
You will love this class. I have learned so much information. you can tell she really does know her stuff!
Mrs. Kanani love for what she does comes across in her teaching!
I highly recommend Dr. Kanani, although she's tough, you leave from her class knowing the material. She also gives students plenty of time to meet with her to go over anything they don't understand. Class attendance is mandatory!! She also gives lots of extra credit point opportunity.
She is the best professor. She gives lot of extra credit to help you get an A.
Dr. Kanani is awesome!! A lot of material is covered in AP1 so a lot of studying is involved!! She is very clear about what you need to know on tests. She gives a lot of extra credit opportunities and offers many other extra points to help students improve their grade. She truly cares about all of her students and wants everyone to do well!!
Dr. Kanani is one of the BEST. She explains in a way that if you pay attention you?ll LEARN and you learn A LOT in her class. Very clear about what you need to learn. She gives different tests, class activities, and extra credit points. You just need to STUDY.
I highly recommend Dr. Kanani. Very knowledgeable, answers the questions in the best of her ability, and teaches in a very clear way. She is easy to talk to, truly cares about her students, and spends time to help. I got 94% in her class by studying average 3 hours a day. Fair tests, not very easy but based on her notes. No tricky question.
Dr. Kanani is one of the best professors, she is really passionate with what she does, I am taking her a&p1 class right now and I am amazed in how she was able to increase, change my enthusiasm about learning sciences. I think she is the most organized and professional professors I have met at Valencia West.
All of these wonderful reviews about Ms. Kanani are true. She is an amazing teacher who actually cares about how her students are doing. Just stay awake and attentive during her lectures and do the study guides. If you take her for AP1 be sure to quickly sign up for her AP2 class. I want to sign up for her now but all her classes are taken up.
I recommend Dr. Kanani for anyone who really wants to learn Anatomy & Physiology. She's very knowledgeable & cares about her students. She gives you every opportunity to pass the class. GREAT teacher!
EXCELLENT teacher! Buy her power point notes and print out the lab power points. Tests are directly from the power points. Lots of extra credit opportunity. She makes class VERY interesting! She knows her stuff! One of the BEST teachers I've had!! LOVE HER!!!
The best A.P.1 Prof ever. Dr. Kanani is extremly organized and passionate about her work. She keeps class interesting and gives fair work. I would highly recommend her.
Dr. Kanani is the most wonderful science professor I have EVER taken!! She provides alot of studying tools for her students, and extra credit opportunities to have an A in the class. Also, All test are multiple choice!! & she wont put anything we haven't reviewed! just make sure to study her powerpoints & other material!! :)
She is the most amazing teacher I have ever had! I gave her a 5 for easiness because this is about as easy as it's going to get for this subject matter. She gives so much opportunity for extra credit and she is so organized. She is brilliant and so caring, and I wish there were more of her so she could teach all of my classes.
I love this lady! She gives so much extra credit and has study guides for her tests. There is no reason you should fail this class. She's always there to help, and she gives great advice. TAKE HER!!!
WOW!! Great Teacher!! Makes you really care about any medical profession you may be undertaking. Explains everything thoroughly and draws great pics on the board. Has a power-point you can buy that really saves your life in this class. Not an easy A, but if you put the time in, very doable. Test are straight forward, no tricks!! Will take for AP2!!
Great prof-down-to-earth, practical and really knows her stuff! She is caring, consistent and helpful! A gem!
Very hard to understand.Gives tons of work.Tests are super hard.Admits to being so emotionally detached that she doesnt even realize what tears are when she does cry.Speaks very fast and moves on so fast taking notes are very difficult.U cant listen and write as fast as she talks.She is a nice lady but her class was super hard.
Whoever says Dr. Kanani is hard is either crazy or lazy. Judging from below student's comment, he/she hasn't seen a classroom since kindergarten. AP is for serious learners; of course you have to study. Dr. Kanani explains difficult concepts in simple ways, is nice, brilliant, very helpful and cares so much about her students
Dr. Kanani is the BEST biology prof. at Valencia. Yes, success in her class comes at the price of lots of study which you can expect in any AP class. API/II are very dense courses. She explains thoroughly, has great powerpoints, gives study guides and practice tests. Has a GREAT personality . Also she has great taste in clothes!
Dr. Kanani, is the most wonderful professor! & I recommend every student to take her course!! She's the best!! To get an A in the course you must study!!.. her powerpoints and anything else she provides! All her test are multiple choice! Most of the class has either an A or B!! :)
Easiest science course ever. Provides the lecture notes online via powerpoint or you can buy her lecture notes for the semester from the bookstore. Minimal work outside of the classroom and she gives you study guides which tell you EXACTLY what to expect on the test. Also gives plenty of easy extra credit opportunities. BEST professor for Anatomy.
Professor Kanani is easily the best professor I've had so far. She really knows a lot about the subjects she teaches and really cares about her students. Tests are all from the power points, study those and you'll get an A. I wish I could take her for more than just A&P!
An INCREDIBLE professor! Very personable, cares a lot about her students, knows how to make a complicated concept easy to understand, very reasonable and fair. Has high expectation that keeps you on your tip toe.
I took her for AP1 and I loved this class. I wasn't very good with science before, but she has gone above and beyond what I need out of a professor. She will not spoon feed you, but she will do everything necessary to help you understand. Whenever I had a question, I emailed her and she would email back ASAP. Wish all professors were like her!
APII is a challenging course and requires lots of studying. Dr. Kanani is so clear and really knows her stuff; is incredibly accessible, explains in depth, and her drawing on the board is helpful. I wish I had her for A&PI, I would have known a lot more. A true gem at Valencia.
This course is not easy but Dr. Kanani is an awesome professor, well-prepared, knowledgeable, clear, and easy to talk to. Responses ASAP to the students’ questions and concerns. The way she taught made me more interested in science.
EXCELLENT PROFESSOR! Incredibly accessible, caring, and organized! You can tell she loves what she does. She makes sure students understand the concept of what’s been taught, always has time for the students, and willing to help. I wish there were more professors like her.
Best teacher I've had. She cares about her students and wants to see them succeed. We're very lucky at Valencia to have a great professor like her. It's rare in the CC setting. Take advantage of the opportunity to take her class, you will learn a lot from her.
There are no words to express how wonderful Dr. Kanani is. She has a WONDERFUL HEART and GREAT PERSONALITY. Is smart and creative with activities in class. Has the ability to teach a very difficult concept in a simplified way. A professional that Valencia is fortunate to have.
Definitely take this professor if you get the chance! She is wonderful, Gives study guides for everything!! Very thorough about the subjects. TAKE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dr Kanani is an amazing professor that truly wants her students to learn and understand the material.The material is not easy but she will definitely explain it and help you understand it. She uses lots of activities that help clarify complicated topics. Also gives study guides. Take her, you will not regret it.
Without doubt she is one of those people with a significant impact on your life. You rarely find a professor with the level of dedication she offers. She genuinely cares about her students, knows how to use real life examples to keep her lecture fun and interesting. Take her if you want to learn, it’s not an easy class but you’ll learn a ton.
Course is challenging. She wants you to be successful. Gives review guides that explain where questions come from. I found tests to be very tricky with wording. If I had studied more (I barely studied) I would definitely have had an A. Some students literally had a 96% in the class prior to final exam. Gives plenty of extra credit.
Dr. Kanani is a great lecturer, explains thoroughly, uses her impressive drawing skill to make the subject matter very interesting, and is very savvy with technology. This course is not easy but if you care about human AP, her excellent teaching skill holds your attention. She is very personable, nice, patient, and likable.
She is a fantastic teacher really knows her subject, she used to be an oral surgeon, You could go up to her with any question and she will give you a through explanation with out looking at her notes or book. She knows her health science. Study guides for every test! I am taking her for anatomy 2 this summer!
All these great comments about Dr. Kanani are true. She is the BEST professor I’ve had so far. I enjoyed her class, both API & II, and having her as instructor made all the differences in world for me. I’ve learned from her more than any other instructor. Always there to help. Just be ready to study a few hours a day, APs are not easy courses.
Dr.Kanani is one of the best professors I 've ever had in my life!She is extremely smartand her drawing on the board are really helpful. provides study guides, and some extra credit opportunities. Not an easy course, but if you study hard you will make an A or B for sure. I'm taking her this fall for A&P II. AMAZING PROFESSOR!!
She is AMAZING! I now have so much love and respect for the human body because of her! AP is not an easy subject but she makes it more bearable. Be prepared to STUDY alot and dont expect to get an easy A by being lazy. Her drawings are great and she is always approachable. Dr. Kanani is truly a gem at Valencia!
Professor Kanani is one of the best professor I've ever had in my whole life!study guides. extra credit activities. drops the lower test score! Take her you won't regret! I'm selling the book (PRINCIPLES OF A&P 13TH Edition) in a CD which is the one I used for both A&P's ONLY $25 EMAIL ME: ROSEGOLDPARIS@GMAIL
Best professor ever. Very attentive, draws on board, provides study guides,quickly responds to all emails and explains it over and over again until you have a good understanding. Untimed and unlimited amounts of tries for take home assignments (until deadline) a little opportunity for extra credit. Very respectful and beautiful inside and out.
A SUPERB PROFESSOR. Extremely smart, organized, and knowledgeable. A professional with a great teaching skill, provides precise explanation and makes sure every student learns. Uses real life examples to reinforce the material. Has a kind heart and genuinely cares about her students.
The time spent in this class(2009) was the most knowledgeable time of my life. I am in the final year of grad school(PharmD)and have yet to encounter a professor with the skill and passion that Dr. Kanani brings to class. She selflessly invests her time in every student willing to learn. She didn't teach BSC2094C in 2009, so I missed out.
Amazing teacher, knows her stuff. Multiple Choice Tests/Quizzes are from class work and her PowerPoints (available on Blackboard). Subject's not easy, but she makes it as easy as possible and wants you to succeed. If you don't do well, maybe medical isn't your field. One of my favorite teachers ever, took her for AP I & II
the best professor ever!!!!
I would not recommend this professor. As a student, she makes me feel like i was beneath her and I believe others felt the same. Her class is extremely hard.
Dr. Kanani’s lecture is interesting and fun. Has a great sense of humor, uses real life examples, and provides study guides to help you focus on studying instead of spending hours to figure out what you need to study. Replies quickly to all emails, always there to help. Caring and organized. Will take her for APII, great prof.
The best Professor I’ve ever had. She is extremely intelligent, knows her sciences, and makes sure you learn all of the info in the class. Goes above and beyond what you need out of a professor to help you be prepared for your medical profession. Always approachable, respectful, and down to earth.
I registered both API&II with Dr. Kanani. Very challenging courses, but I could not ask for a better professor! Has a kind heart, genuinely cares about her students, very helpful and truly dedicated to her work. She has a great personality, friendly and respectful. I wish she would teach all my science courses.
Hands down the best teacher I have had at Valencia. She cares so much about her students and wants everyone to succeed. This is Anatomy not Humanities so you will NEED to study your grade is EARNED. A&P is a tough course, but Dr Kanani makes it interesting and understandable. Always responds to emails and answers questions. Highly recommend her!
BEST PROF EVER. Sometimes difficult to get a seat because about 100 extra people come to the class that aren't in it, just because she's that good.
I really enjoyed being in Dr. Kanani’s API&II class, she is an excellent professor. Her course is well organized, I never got lost for a second. Explains thoroughly, gives study guides and class activities that help a lot. No unpleasant surprise with her. Attend class and take all class activities and STUDY, that’s the key. Highly recommend her!
Dr. Kanani is one of if not the best professor I've ever had. She's AMAZING at explaining the material, so your actually learning in class therefore you don't feel like your wasting your time. She's also very sweet and funny. Also very approchable. Uses power points so you won't need a book. You will ACTUALLY learned in this class. TAKE HER !!! :)
Such an amazing professor! Very helpful and clear when explaining material and will show you different examples so that you can fully understand. The assignments were very helpful in helping you prepare for the exams. Obviously, this is a higher level science course so you have to work at it. I would definitely recommend her to anybody.
Dr. Kanani is simply AWESOME! Come to class ready to learn, put in the time, ask for clarification when you get lost and you'll be fine! Make sure you draw along w/ her and write down as much info along w/ the notes.. it really helps. I'm so mad that she doesn't teach any of the other courses I'll be taking. If she was I'd take her class...PERIOD!
I love Professor Kanani;she is the best of the best! She is very knowledgeable, professional, kind, etc. She explains everything in details, provides study guides and offers to help in the lab on her time off. She is great!! Not an easy class but if you go to learn and study, you will have a great outcome! Professor Kanani ROCKS!
Kept an A all the way until the final and end up passing with a high B. i WILL be honest! I didnt properly study for the teacher. The only times i studied was right before the test on the same day of the test or read through powerpnt the night before the test. I took her easiness for granted. If i would have took it serious i could have kept my A!
BEST PROFESSOR EVER! TAKE HER YOU WONT REGRET! YOU DO HAVE TO STUDY, OF COURSE! SHE MAKES MATERIAL EASY TO UNDERSTAND AND PROVIDES LOTS OF EXAMPLES. HER DRAWINGS ARE EXTREMELY HELPFUL! LOVE HER!! PASSED WITH B+
Dr. Kanani’s class was the first science class that I left learning so much! Not an easy class but she is absolutely the BEST to teach such a difficult course. She’s very clear, gives study guides and practice tests to help and prepare you, replies to emails and concerns quickly. Also very personable and encouraging. She is a GEM at Valencia
Dr. Kanani is so smart. You can tell she genuinely cares about her students. Her teaching method is so amazing that regardless of your style of learning if you put enough effort you will succeed. Attend class and pay attention to her lecture and drawings, you actually LEARN in her class. Take her class activities, they help a lot.
SHE IS THE BEST!!! Please take her, you wont regret it! She is an amazing professor and truly cares about her students. I learned SO much in her class. I like how she related things that we were learning in class to real life scenarios and gave us good ways to remember things.
Four words "intelligent, caring, organized, beautiful" that's how to describe Dr. kanani. She is one of the smartest, kindest, most helpful professors I've ever had. Great teaching skill, attend class and listen carefully. Her class is significantly helpful to prepare you for any medical field. LOVE her and highly recommend her.
This lady is amazing! She is highly intelligent and her lectures are fun. I was worried about taking AP1 but I am so glad I did. You do not need book just use her slides. She gives a good amount of extra credit.
I am currently taking her for AP2 because AP1 with her was AMAZING. She gives study guides, and her tests are based on the study guides. She lectures off of Power Points. There are take home assignments (online) but they are easy and aren't usually due until the class before the actual test. There are only six tests (including the Final).
My first teacher who actually teaches! Although she makes power points, she doesnt read it word for word, instead she draws her on pictures and graphs to explain. She even uses real life experience to help. At times she gives these inspirational speeches that are really motivating. Overall she is AMAZING!! 3exam 2labs, 3easyHW, and extra-credit!
I promise she is an amazing teacher. I never met a teacher who had amazing lectures examples and power points like her. Easy A if you work hard. I regret not studying in her class end up with a B in AnP1 and AnP2. Hurry and get her before its too late.
Dr. Kanani is the best professor! She truly cares if you learn. Gives extra assignments for easy points and extra credit. You do not need book, tests are from power points. She explains things thoroughly. Study and you get A! Love her.
She was the best teacher I have ever taken on campus ! Some professor you could less if you see them again.
Dr. Kanani is one of the best professor at Valencia. She's so kind and genuine. Not to mention super funny. She gives excellent advice. She brings her experience and knowledge of been a Medical Doctor and integrates it into her teaching. Truly love this lady. Her class is not easy but manageable. She 's a gem at Valencia.
Dr. Kanani is simply amazing! If you show up, put in the time to study, and do your work, you'll pass without any problems. The course isn't easy, but she helps in as many ways as possible. So many chances to make up for points and exams are based off her powerpoints, not the book. I had a lot of fun & excited to take AP2 with her next semester!
Dr. Kanani is amazing. Take her. Go to class, study and do the work. She gives many opportunities for you to earn points. Her teaching method is so easy to understand. I would take her again.
She is great but class is hard. She's one of the best professors at Valencia.
Absolutely phenomenal professor. Knows what she is doing and passionate about her students passing. Lectures are organized as well as exams and labs. You get heads up everyday. Lots of opportunities to keep your grade where you want it to be. Exams the same day and you get your results. Study hard you will pass.
OMG!!! Now I knew why it was so hard to get a spot in her class. I had to email her and asked her to add me which she did. Ive learnt so much. She is really awesome. A real gem at Valencia. She is extraordinary . She has really impacted on me as a student. She is beautiful , funny and a real professional . Take her you would be so happy you did.
Best Prof. ever!!! An awesome professor with and overwhelming knowledge of the medical field. I learnt so much. Take her you wont regret!!!!!!!!
OMG! Kanani is such an amazing teacher! She is very smart, super helpful and very caring. I took her for Anatomy & Physiology II, her tests are not that easy, could be very tricky, but than again its about the Physiology. What I can say is that get ready to study, at the end it is all worth it. She gives an adequate amount of extra credit.
You get points for showing up to class. You get points on take home assignments and in class activities- do this and get your easy points!! Also gives a little extra credit. No book needed, her classes/tests are all off her power points, which are easy to follow and study from. have a ?- she will get back fast- loved her!!!!
Dr. Kanani is so full of information and extremely smart! She believes school should be your top priority but helps in every way she can. Tests are hard so REVIEW, make notecards, and ask questions! If she sees you make an effort, you'll be rewarded. Offers tons of EC, so take advantage! I would take her again!! DON'T BUY THE BOOK!
Dr. Kanani is one of the best and most desired professors at Valancia. If you don't believe me, just try to sign up for one of her classes. It's hard to get into one. Her lectures are the most organized and sensible on the planet. She manages to take an extremely difficult topic and make it comprehensible. You still have to study though!
Dr. Kanani is by far the best professor I've ever had. I had her for both AP 1 and 2. Hard subject matter - put in the work, you'll pass. Got A's for each class. She gives amazing lectures, diagrams, clear explanations, and gives extra credit points in every class, and study guides! Her classes fill up quick. Take her... She's fantastic!
Most amazing professor I've had the pleasure of taking. Very smart and her lectures are "crystal clear". Personally, I thought the class was extremely easy. So much extra credit it was hard to drop down to a 95. But you need to show up. The only issue I've had were students in the group projects. She's hilarious as well. She's a 10/10 human being.
She's the greatest professor I've ever had. Really puts things in perspective for you. Doesn't sugar coat anything & is willing to teach you more than 1 way. If you take her class, I will say you should take it alone because it is time consuming. I recommend her to everyone.
Dr. Kanani is by far the most intelligent person I have ever met. Her method of teaching cannot even be put into words. Everything that may not make sense does after she lectures on it. She creates additional pictures to "dummy down" the information, and some are rather funny! If you are lucky enough, take her! Study, you will get an A.
Doctor Kanani is one of the best professors who I met during all my studying years. She is very intelligent and organized. All her assignments and tasks are cristal clear. The lectures are very interesting and interactive . To pass this class, You definitely have to study all the material. I would really recommend to take this class.
Dr. Kanani is perhaps the best professor I've ever had. She cares about her students, and is passionate about anatomy and physiology. Her class isn't easy, but it is absolutely worth it. I learned so much and feel prepared to continue with my education. I wish there were other classes I could take from her.
If I can pass, you can pass. She teaches the material clearly and is willing to answer any questions. She offers LOTS of extra credit. Always prepared for class and takes attendance. She genuinely cares about her students and is friendly. Her lectures are interesting and she relates it to real life situations. Lot's of powerpoint and some videos.
The best A&P professor Valencia has to offer. She explained everything clear
She is a GREAT Professor! I took her twice for A&P 1. The first time I failed with a D but it was completely my fault . I would not recommend this over the summer. I took A&P over in the fall and got a B. I was a couple points from an A. Yes I cried. Overall her teaching style is wonderful and you can understand if you pay attention and STUDY!!
This teacher is absolutely the best professor I have ever had. As long as you do what is asked you will get an A. The first day her accent threw me off, but I got used to it and so happy i took her. I loved her class so much I took her for AP2. Take her I promise it will be the best thing you do for yourself at Valencia.
I would recommend, but her class IS NOT easy. She expects you to dedicate your life to A&P. I do like how you can bomb the test but manage to have a B due to the class activites and other assignments. There is ALOT of group work(almost every class) Shes like to draw pictures and answer questions. BUT she sometimes says rude things. STUDY EVERYDAY!!
Professor kanani is one of the best professors I've ever had in college. She is one of the most inspirational, motivational, and understanding professor. She wants all her students to succeed and will help her students as much as she can. Being in college I always just wanted to get by but with her class she makes it enjoyable and worth it
She's the best. She makes sure you understand the content and her drawings really help out if you are a visual learner. Took her for AP1 and AP2 and wish I could have had her for more classes.
Amazing teacher! Very straightforward about what she expects from you. The wording on her tests and are tough, so you really have to know the material forwards and backwards.
Stop searching and chose her! I thought I was not going to like her class. However, at the end, I love this class. She explains every detail, gives good examples, and she is so funny. There are 3 online quizzes, 4 tests, 1 class lab, extra credit activities. Do not miss one single class because there are activities every class. I end up with an A.
I took her for AP1 & AP2. Ended AP2 with an A. She is very detailed, and that can cause you to miss the question. Group activity almost everyday. Learn & understand the material, don't memorize. She has a study guide. Her test can be tough if you don't study. Take the class seriously and STUDY, you will pass. People drop because they don't study.
This is my first review on a professor, I didn't feel the need to do one but she's so good with explaining! The professor is very passionate about what she does and she cares a lot about the students, she's very professional. Take her you'll learn a lot! I passed with a B if I studied more I would have earn an A!
Prof. Kanani is the BEST prof I've had in college! She is so passionate/knowledgeable about what she teaches, keeps lectures interesting, cares deeply about her students and a great inspiration. make sure to attend/pay attention in lectures. Gives study guide-dont just memorize, understand material, go to office hours. Study hard & you'll do good!
Dr. Kanani is the best professor at Valencia and I sincerely believe one of the greatest at any school you go. She explains the material clearly, is organized and friendly. She is also very funny. She puts a lot of her energy into her lectures and she will help anyone who is willing to learn. I love this teacher. Don't hesitate and choose her.
She is simply AMAZING! best professor in Valencia! I wish I could take all my courses with her.
I absolutely LOVED Dr Kanani. PSA IF YOU ARE NOT A NURSING STUDENT OR GOING INTO THE MEDICAL FIELD/ DON'T CARE ABOUT SCIENCE DO NOT TAKE HER. She is one of the only professors that I took where i genuinely retained the information. She is very strait forward but wants her students to succeed. Get ready to study. Overall great professor
Professor Kanani is most definitely one of a kind. Everything we learned in class was in direct correlation with the tests. There are NUMEROUS chances to pass this class, don't go into it lightly. Study, draw diagrams and ask questions and you can get an A! She's always willing to help, I wish I had taken better care to study better earlier.
This is my second review. Took AP1 and AP2 with her. Got a really good grade in science on my teas test. I learned a lot in this class because she gives amazing lectures. She is an awesome professor, and I wish she taught every single science class. Got A's in both classes. Don't miss her lectures.
Dr. Kanani is very big on her lectures. I think that because of her surgical background, she expects everyone to be as brilliant as she is. She can be very harsh when students are not doing well in her class, even goning as far to saying that students may want to consider changing majors, simply from doing bad on one test. Make sure you study!
Best prof. EVERRR! I'm actually taking for for AP 2 next semester. Her tests are easy if you study and not by memorizing but by understanding the concept. So when she draws something on the board draw it and understand the anatomy before you learn the physiology! I think that's why some students fail but she gives extra credit so there's no failing
Dr. Kanani is a fantastic professor! Her lectures are very informative and helpful. For tests provides study guides. Be ready to study! She will prepare students for any medical profession. I learned a lot in her AP 1 and 2. More than any courses I've ever taken. Very inspiring, a beautiful human being in and out!Highly recommend taking her class.
Dr Kanani its my best professor ever. Her lectures are the best ever, she knows what she is talking about and also she makes you feel comfortable to ask questions. She gave a lot of extra credit. Pay attention in her class, study the study guides and you can definitely have a good grade. The best choice is this professor.
The best professor I've taken a course with. Her great lectures and class activities both help a lot. She answers as many questions as you have. Very respectful, caring,and encouraging! Gives good study guides, answers emails quickly, simplifies complex concepts so learning them is easier. Her lectures made me more interested in science.A true gem!
Take her! She is one of the best professors at West Valencia! You wont regret.
You will love anatomy in her class She will prepare you for the program as well as the teas exam Take her! She is awsome!
Dr Kanani is a wonderful professor! She is so passionate about what she teaches and makes learning the material interesting. Taking her is the best thing you can do for your academic career!
She is wonderful! Very organized, caring, clear and passionate. I absolutely recommend her.
Dr. Knani is a great proffessor who explanse evey think in a clear way. Many class activities which help alot in the overall grade. She gives a study guid, and her power points are very helpful. She really cares about her students and their grades.
Very passionate. Great lecturer.
Dr. Kanani is amazing! She is very organized, clear, and explains well. She really teaches her class. TAKE HER! You wont regret! Best professor ever.
Always helpful and available and gives a lot of extra credit.
I can't even begin to describe how good a professor she is. Her lectures are very clear, engaging. She cares a lot about her students and their academic success. She is willing to help and replies to emails even on the weekend. Her tests are not hard if you study. She gives plenty of extra credit. You won't find a better professor.
Dr. Kanani made my experience with A&P I very enjoyable. Her lectures, including the PowerPoints and explanations are the most clear and concise you can get. Every class there is at least two activities that help you understand the material and give you extra credit points. If you do all the work and study, an A is very achievable.
I really enjoyed Dr Kanani, take her, you will learn so much. I would have gotten an A if I had studied better. I studied a lot, but just not right. She was a great professor and I never regretted taking her. Shes funny and class goes by so fast. She will do everything she can to make you understand. She wants you to succeed. Very passionate.
Dr. Kanani is the epitome of the kind of person I want to be. She does her part in teaching you and then you're expected to do your part and with medicine being a complex field, she does her best in preparing her student for the medical field. I am forever grateful for all she has taught me not only about science but about other life stuff.
Simply put, this professor is the best of the best. You wont find someone who explains as clearly as she does. She is respectful, professional, smart and caring and wants to see you succeed. She loves to answer questions. No other science professor compares to her.
Best of the best seriously, she explains everything so well and makes sure you understand it. No lab practical just four lecture exams. A lot of extra credit, super easy group activities. Its AP2 so of course its not easy but she makes the class stress free and and some what enjoyable!
I took this professor for two semesters and I genuinely recommend her. She is very strict and to the point but very highly respected and actually teaches you. She gives you plenty of diagrams to actually help you understand the topic and I actually learned something. You HAVE to work for this class. Do all the assignments and study. Take her!
Dr. Kanani is the best science professor I have ever had. She is so passionate about every topic she teaches and she is very accommodating to students who need clarification while explaining topics. I am going to take A&P 2 with her next semester.
I love professor Kanani! She is very clear on what she wants. Her lectures are what i found to be most helpful. She gives a LOT of information, and it is overwhelming at times, but A&P is a challenging subject in itself. She makes it very clear on what she does and doesnt want. Definielty recommend!!
Take her! If you don't pass with at least a C it was because you really put no effort into the course. I could of gotten an A had I studied more. Love her overall!! took her for both AP1 and AP2
She was an alright teacher, but every chance she got, she would mention how she got her first PhD at 22 and how this is just a "college" class and apparently that makes it less significant. Overall, good teacher, she has very high expectations, and a LOT of your grade is determined by the lab final and the final. I had an A all semester until then.
Dr. Kanani is a superb professor. She's intelligent, encouraging, and cares about students. Her teaching style and the way she simplifies complex topics is very helpful. I took both API and II with her and learned a lot. Her class activities and study guides help. Be prepared to study, getting an A is not difficult though. Highly recommend her!
Dr. Kanani is the most dedicated, brilliant and down to earth professor that you will encounter. Her teaching style is amazing and if you do your part and study you will succeed. The material is not easy but anyone can understand her lectures. Take this professor you wont regret it. Shes fantastic.
Dr. Kanani is an amazing lecturer. She simplifies AP topics in a way that makes sense. Five tests on what she covers in the class. Make sure to take note and follow her study guides. Her class activities help a lot. Getting an A is doable. Also she is geniunly caring and kind which makes it easier to ask question. A true gem. Highly recommend her!
Professor Kanani is one of the best professors I have taken. Her lectures are wonderful and she breaks down topics to be clearly understood and if you don't understand she will help you understand. What you need to know in class is clear and she really cares and has a passion to help others learn. If you work in this class you can do well!
Shes gonna make you work for the grade, but for anyone pursuing microbiology after, the work is worth it. The quizzes every class seem tedious, but they are extremely helpful. The tests are not easy, but she does provide study guide with ALL the information you need. And there is plenty of extra credit, i never dropped below an a the whole semester
incredible teacher TAKE HER TRUST ME DO IT. JUST DO IT.
Dr. Kanani is a knowledgeable professional. She explains everything perfectly and helps you fully understand the systems of human body. I have learned a LOT in this class, and I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn. She is amazing! A true gem!
Incredibly dedicated, organized, clear and helpful professor. Valencia should ask her to teach more than just AP. If you have a choice, do yourself a favor and pick this prof. Yes you will have to study, but if you pay attention in class, half of the work will be done. She teaches in a way that difficult material will make sense to you. A++++
She's pretty amazing.. Definitely made a difference in the world of Medicine and my personal little knowledge of medicine and anatomy and physiology. I feel very fortunate that my beginning knowledge of Anatomy, Health, Medical Science began with what she taught me. I am very grateful. Shes a realist,. *Could be a Harvard professor easily.
If you want to really learn more about science and become a successful professional. You should take professor Kanani. She is simply the BEST of all. She inspires me in a way I can't describe. I wish I can be like her in the future. I'll definitely take ap2 with her and I wish I could have her as my master forever. She is brilliant. I adore her!
Dr. Kanani is by far one of the best professors I've ever had in my LIFETIME. She breaks down complex topics in simpler ways for understanding. Her study methods and life advice are phenomenal as well. She is more than qualified to teach this stuff and inspires every student she comes across. The content is HARD so pay attention and attend class!
Hands down the BEST B.E.S.T.! I was so afraid of having a bad teacher for AP1 and I chose her based on RMP reviews. Gladly I did it! She is EXTREMELY ORGANIZED so no surprises! She will be clear on how to get an A on her tests and she is always giving extra credit. She's so so so intelligent that I dream about becoming like her in the future. love
Class has 4 exams, 2 lab quiz, and 7 online assignments. Kanani is organized and teaches off her ppt's, which are simple to follow. I only had 2 problems with her class. 1st, every class you have 3 group activities, each with different partners. Last I checked, this is college, not middle school! 2nd, she would breeze through the lecture sometimes.
Dropped out of this class bc she would breeze through lectures and her accent made it difficult to understand so I knew I would struggle in this class. She also had you pair up with a classmate to complete quizzes which was timed and frustrating bc sometimes you wouldnt finish in time. I would finish in time if I was doing it alone. Shes okay.
I did AP1 and AP2 with her and I can say she is the best professor I had the honor to have. She loves what she does, so it's clear how much effort she puts to help us (her students) succeed in the course. Dr Kanani, I'll be forever grateful to you! she teaches you in the way everything is clear and easy do understand. I absolutely love her!
She is very good at explaining, clear and takes her time by drawing on the board for every topic of the lecture. I never had a problem understanding her. The group activities are not an issue since you can choose to write your own answer and initial if you dont agree with partners. The best professor you can take for a complex class like AP.
She is amazing with making complex subjects easier and understandable (also fun and enjoyable). Her exams are hard, but VERY fair if you study and use all of her resources. She sets you up well for the future in the medical field. The best anatomy professor, no doubt!
AP1 class had 4 exams, which were based on the powerpoints. Each class there are group activities, which I am not the biggest fan of. There are times where Dr. Kanani explains concepts in great detail, and then when she quickly reviews some topics. The textbook and YouTube videos helped me if I needed better understanding. You must STUDY for an A.
Tests are incredibly challenging and set up for failure.
plead the fifth. She's nice but no thank you to her class, too much in little time
Dr. Kanani is one of the best professors I've ever had. She is filled with knowledge and teaches anatomy in a way that's easy to understand. The class involves a lot of studying on your own but her powerpoints provide exactly what you need to know for the exams. She also gives group activities which are sometimes used as extra credit.
Dr. Kanani is very knowledgeable and provides every opportunity for students to learn and pass with good grades. Tests are straight from her PowerPoints and videos. I watch the videos and study the PowerPoints and have done well in all her tests. She offers extra credit too. No excuse to not do well in her class. Highly recommend her. A great Prof!
A superb professor, very organized with a great teaching style. She breaks down complex info in an easy way to undersand. No unpleasant surprise, exams are all from her Powerpoints and what she teaches, need studyin few hours a day though. She answers questions and helps in any way she can. She's kind & genuinely cares about studnets. Take her.
Dr. Kanani is an amazing professor! She made AP so interesting and easy to comprehend. She takes the time to explain subjects and repeat them (since short-term memory turns into long-term memory via repetition ;) ) You will work but you'll have a lasting understanding of the concepts and feel really prepared for the medical field track.
If you have the opportunity to take this professor, please do. She is one of the best professors I have ever taken. She really wants you to do well and theres so many opportunities to earn extra credit. I got a B but it was because I didnt push myself like I should have. She really prepares you if youre going into the medical field.
Took her for a&p2 and it was really hard. Her tests are very intense, has 5-7 answer choices. She does group quizzes in class every day and if you dont study you wont pass. She refers to the quizzes as extra credit but they affect your grade heavily.
Four tests all from her PowerPoints. No quizzes. She explains literally everything in her videos. If you study her notes and watch her videos, getting an A is not difficult. She gives plenty of extra credit. Very helpful and organized. There is nothing to complain about, it's AP needs studying. Would take class with her again in a heartbeat.
Very organized and passionate about what she teaches. Cares deeply about her students and goes above and beyond to help. Explains everything in depth, gives good practice tests and assignments. Clear on what you need to know. Just take note of what she teaches, you'll do great. Valencia is fortunate to have such a knowledgeable professor.
Greatest teacher Ive had. Incredibly knowledgeable, realistic, and caring. AP is innately difficult. If you actually care about this class, this is the prof you want. Go to class, pay attention, read, and read again. It's a beautiful course that deserves it Thank you very much, you're an amazing teacher and person. Until next time take care
She's good at teaching, gives power points, and videos on what you're learning, but her exams are super difficult. I'd study for days and still wouldn't pass her exams. She gives 6 options to choose from on her exams for example option A,B,C,D, option E would be answers A and D, and option F would B,D,A Quizzes every class too. Not my cup of tea.
If I would of paid more attention to her videos which are like gems I know I would of made a better grade. Truly cares and goes above and beyond to help you understand through her videos. Some extra credit, and will take off points if you are not present.
A great prof. She expalins everything and is very clear with what to study. Her exams are not really difficult. I studied average an hour a day and got A in every one of her tests. Her videos worth watching, and all her questions come from her lecture. It's a shame to not recognize such a great professor. She is fantastic, kind, caring, a true gem.
Dr. Kanani has been one of the best professors I've ever had. Her powerpoints are are very easy to understand and the lecture videos she makes are super helpful. As long as you study those you are set for the exams. She does offer various extra credit assignments which really help.
I love professor kanani when it comes to her face to face class. But when we switched to online format, her class became EXTREMELY hard. I would watch all the lecture videos yet when it was time for the assignments I would get several wrong which led me to failing the tests. There were so many lecture videos to watch. I recommend face to face!
Took API f2f and midway online, APII full online. Couldn't ask for a better professor than Dr. Kanani. Four tests, questions are fair. Gives points for assignments and some extra credit. Answers emails quickly. I read her PowerPoints and watched some of the videos. Found tests to be very fair. She cares and helps. Overall a five star professor.
I took her after being recommended by several people about her class. They took her face to face, so their experience was great I'm sure, but online it's horrible. I would study the slides, watch her videos, and even do well on the lecture assignments, but once the exam comes around it seems like it was completely opposite from the assignments.
She gives clear study plan. Her videos and assignments help. I find her tests easier than her assignments. Tests are manageable because she asks about main things, not every little detail. Took this course with another prof, had to drop it because of exams. She answers emails quickly and gives extra credit. Recommend her 100% online or face to face
she is a very kind lady, she does give extra credit but test... hard... there is a lot of trick question on her test. it can be a word that's so similar to the tea right next to each other and I was never was a perfect speller so ... that messed me up a lot. She's nice but overall she is tough, and I'm hoping I pass with at least a C....
Her only assignments total are 12 quizzes and 4 exams, NOTHING else to help your grade. Quizzes are easy but they are barely worth anything. Exam questions come from 20 videos but worded her way, which is confusing. She gives a "study guide" for exams but its just topics you should know, and she doesnt give the answers. Exams are proctored.
Prof. Kanani is organized and clear on what to study. 60% of grade is from 4 exams, questions all from her notes, pretty straightforward. Her assignments are all open book, they count for almost 40% of grade and she gives extra credit. AP needs studying. If you study her notes few times, you'll do fine. If you want an easy course, it ain't AP.
She's great. Super fast answering questions, very respectful and caring. Gives great notes and tests only on those. she explains everything in videos, easy to understand. Fair test questions. Gives many opportunities to help boost your grade. Replaces low exam grade. Study and ask if you don't get it. That's what I did and my low exam grade is 92.
This class had me done, she gives barely any assignments and gives quizzes, they do boost your grade up but not as heavy as the exam. Her exams are tricky and timed and for all chapters she makes at least 30 videos and expects you to know everything for her exam, yeah she gives extra credit but its not like it will bring you up a letter grade.
Her notes are GREAT. In videos she explains what she has in her notes. I take AP2 with nutrition & micro, don't have much time & just study her notes. Her videos are well made and help if you have time. I kept a solid B & I am not the best test taker. I recommend her to those serious about AP & willing to study.
She is super organized. Explains the content in videos she make. I watch most her videos and study her notes. Everything in tests comes from what she has in her notes. Gives plenty of points for assignments and extra credit. This class is hard, be ready to study a few hours a day, whatever grade you get depends on the effort you put in.
Professor Kanani is by far one of the best professors I've ever had. She makes videos for all of her content that are concise and straightforward. Use the videos to study the notes and you'll do great. Her tests are difficult but as long as you study the content and use the study guide you will do well. My lowest test grade is a 92- study every day
Dr. Kanani is awesome, A&P is a hard subject but she gives super helpful feedback. She gives TONS of extra credit. As a bad test taker I am really glad that she doesnt base your grade solely on tests which helps me A LOT. The only thing I was not comfortable with is that she uses honorlock which gives me anxiety but other than that shes great!
Dr. Kanani is an amazing professor and she'll do everything to make sure we are successful in her class, her lectures videos are super easy to understand and she even gives us notes, there's no way to fail this class if you study and do the work, tons of XC, I wish every professor was like her, taking her for AP2, TAKE HER !!!! You won't regret it
I took her class fully online due to covid. I took lots of notes and made many note cards. You have to memorize all of the information because she will ask about specific things. If you study and put forth the effort you will be great! Her lecture videos are also super helpful so I recommend watching those a few times especially before your tests!

Dr. Kanani is a superb professor. Thanks to her great videos this was the first science class during covid that I actually learned the topics. All info you need to know is in her notes. Very organized & respectful, answers questions quickly & gives EC. You need to study but the amount of work and what she expects is reasonable. Highly recommend her
Dr. Kanani will always set clear expectations on how to be successful in the course. She is always happy to clarify or reexplain a concept. She expects you put in the work, you won't skate through this course by putting in the bare minimum, but she is also there every step of the way. Homework is very useful in preparing for exams. GREAT professor!
This class is hard as it is, and it was made harder because there was little grading material, which made it seem almost impossible if you got a bad grade on even one thing. Also, she did none of the teaching at all, and was no help with anything. She seemed nice but was not great at teaching something like this. Would not recommend.
No notes on 4 honor-lock exams thatll kill your grade. Extra credit opportunities didnt help the complexity of the material. 2 lecture assignments due per week that didnt exactly line up with lecture material and each question has 10 subquestions. She tries to help but its overwhelmingly impossible for anyone with a job or other classes
If you're serious about learning AP, Dr. Kanani's course is great. If you want to skip through materials and get easy grade look for another Prof. I find her videos one of the best in all science classes I've taken. Take the assignments, study her notes, watch her videos. I got A in AP1 and have A in AP2 just by doing these 3 things. Recommend 100%
The course is organized and Dr. Kanani explains everything in short videos. Her videos are GREAT. I do the homework after watching her videos and reading her notes. Got 94 and 100 in exams. Fair questions, ALL from her notes. If you don't do well, it's on you. She answers questions super fast and is always there to help. Highly recommend this prof
the best professor i ever have. i took her for AP1 and 2 i recommend her for anyone. she is straight forward and exams are from power point she provides a lot of extra credit . she gives enough time to submit assignment . if you do not pass her class with an A then something is wrong with you.
Great professor, straight forward and clear with what you need to know for tests, read her notes and watch her videos, she explains everything, easy to understand, no unpleasant surprise, tests on the notes, gives extra credit, caring and helpful, always there to help, highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn
Dr. Kanani is a must! Her class is straightforward and organized. If you study her powerpoints and do the assignments you will pass the class. However she makes the class easy peesy. Out of all of my professors she was the best one ! Stop scrolling and just TAKE HER CLASS !
Dr. Kanai, is a incredible professor . As we all know human anatomy is hard but Professor Kanai makes the class easy. You have weeks to study the material and take your exam. Stop searching for other professors because it doesnt get no better than her. She is very nice, she respond to her emails quickly and she cares about her students progress.
I wouldnt recommend this professor at ALL!!! I listened to all the positive reviews and took her class and it was the worst decision I ever made. Her exams are extremely difficult. If you are looking for an amazing professor who cares for their students, take professor Kamal!
Professor Kanani is an excellent prof, organized, caring and helpful. Half of grade is from assignments, all open book from her notes. Her exams are pretty straightforward again all from her notes. I found her videos very helpful and her exams fair. No unpleasant surprise in her course, recommend this prof 100% if you're serious about learning AP
Excellent prof. Found her exams very much like her assignments. Has helpful videos explaining everything. Completed all assignments, watched her videos, read her notes, got A in every exam with no difficulty. She answers questions quickly and always there to help. 4 fair exams count for half of of grade. Need to know material and study though
I took this Professor based on all the good reviews. After attending class, I felt bamboozled. You definitely need to put in time to study and then some. Each student may have their own teaching preference, although I didn’t appreciate how she proposed that students change majors if they are struggling. I feel a good teacher should uplift you
Dr Kanani is amazing. Has great videos, explains everything, and is always there to help even during weekends and breaks. She leaves comments on all my attempts in assignments and helps me to learn. It is clear that she cares for her students and their success. Course is tough and needs studying, she's always willing to help though, a true gem
Dr. Kanani is very knowledgable and provides many resources to understand and learn the material. She is also very responsive to emails and provides great feedback on each assignment which helps to understand what you got wrong and why it is wrong. I am taking her for A&PII because she is that awesome!
Dr. Kanani allows you to use the PDF of her class, but she doesn't ask you exactly as she explains, so it makes everything confusing to understand. Even if she allows it you will have trouble because is not well explained. she is just a professor she does not care about a student just teaches and does it, if you don't understand go to youtube.
Dr. Kanani is an excellent professor, explains everything in her lecture videos and answers questions in detail. AP is not an easy course; there is nothing confusing about her videos, notes, or exams. If you study, watch her videos, read her notes, do the assignments, you'll be fine. If you're looking for an easy grade though, look somewhere else.
Dr. Kanani is a great professor, I found her videos very helpful, she explains everything in a way that's easy to understand, course needs studying so be ready to put in couple of hours a day to study her notes, she's always there to help, answer emails quickly and explains everything in good details, one of my best decisions to take this prof
Don't Take this professor she is rude and is not understanding at all towards students. I am not sure how she got all those other reviews but they are completely not true. Take Jamila instead she is way better!
Probably one of my favorite professors! Intimidating at first but super knowledgeable in her field and she truly cares about properly educating her students! Exams correlate to the study guides and she gives great feedback to all assignments. Very fast responses to emails. Its not going to be an easy A but if you put in the effort, you will pass!
I'm going to be honest, this is not an easy course to take, but I've learned more in this class than in any other one I've taken. You HAVE to study the material, she does a good job at responding and making you feel comfortable with asking questions. Great professor, hard class.
DONT LOOK NO MORE!!! GET HER! SHE IS AMAZING!!! her work is extremely helpful, her assignment questions are the same questions that will be on exams. She wants her students to succeed.
Dr. Kanani is probably the best anatomy professor you can have. She is very experienced with the subject and makes sure her students understand what they are learning. She offers a lot of extra credit throughout the course and gives study guides to help with exams. I will admit, it is not an easy class but as long as you put in effort you will pass
Dr. Kanani has mastered teaching with how she conducts her lecture which hits all of the main types of learning such as Auditory, Visual, and Kinesthetic. Lots of extra credits offered throughout the course. Provides study guides and assignments that are near identical to her exams (info wise). Course is no joke but her resources makes it bearable.
10/10 professor, would totally take her again, she is so nice and understanding and knows what shes talking about. shes very knowledgeable and will take her time if you need something explained better. lots of extra credit opportunities to help your grade. she is tough but she knows what shes doing to make you successful
Amazing prof!Her class is tough but she gives you all the resources to be successful.Actually take time to study due to the exams are worth 60%of your grade.She replace the lowest test score with the average of the first 3 exams.Lots of extra credit.She was kind enough to make the last two exams no honorlock.She always gives reminders of due dates.
This class was the most stress-free course I've ever taken. Dr.Kanani has a very organized class and offers numerous self-resources. Quiz-based assignments have multiple attempts, similar to timed and proctored exams with tons of extra credit. You must study for this course as there is a lot of material.
THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER! if you have the opportunity TAKE her, she is the best! I took this class mix mode, exams are with honorlock , but she allowed you to use two sheet of paper with the information that you wanted. She is also very caring and she put a lot of effort into her power point. She responds to emails very fast. I love her
The course itself is quite hard. The textbook is not required. She offers plenty of Extra Credit and even disables proctoring for some of the Exams. Get ready to watch videos, take lots of notes, and read pdfs. Since this is A&P II, I would NOT recommend taking this course with another, lest you welcome the challenge. She answers DMs quite quickly.
A superb professor. Her course is well organized. Provides good notes & plenty of lecture videos in which she explains everything in detail. Her exams corelate to her assignmentsand study guides. No unpleasant surprise with her. Responds quickly to questions and geniounly cares for her students. Highly recommend her if you're serious to learn
Best professor I have had so far. This professor explains concepts in good detail, but in an understandable way. She does not throw too much at you at once and she gives extra credit. She answers quick and offers so many resources in case you need help. Her lecture videos and homework assignments are super helpful.
Overall a great prof. Gives good notes, has plenty of videos explaining all difficult topics. Her assignments and exams correlate and gives extra credit to help boost your grade. Course needs studying, of course, but her expectation is very reasonable, and answers questions super quickly. I would give her 10 out of 10
TAKE THIS PROFESSOR! I took this course as a mixed mode class it was very easy. She gives her students study guides of what will be on the test. She makes difficult topics easy to understand. And gives out alot if extra credit work. Its hard to FAIL her class as long as you do your work and not be lazy you can pass with an easy A! She is the best !
Dr. Kanani is a wonderful professor! You can tell she is passionate about what she does and it shows in her course. She has an appreciation for structure and her class is simply to follow as long as you do the work ON TIME and study. There are many opportunities for extra credit and she is very responsive. 100% recommend her! :)
This class was completely online but the professor was very involved. Its hard to fail her class, she offers a lot of extra credit, study guides and other things that set you up for success. You do have to do the work and read but its not overwhelming. I would take her again.
She has a plethora of video resources to help you understand the concept. Some of the questions from the quizzes may appear on the exam. She responds promptly to emails. Although the class is challenging, with a lot of information to cover, success is achievable if you put in the effort and do the work.
I loved Professor Kanani, you can tell she appreciates structure and loves what she does. Her video lectures are thorough and really help you learn the concept, at least for me. Audio/visual learner here. Her tests are structured around the assignments, if you do your work and study, you will get an A. Take her!
She is honestly the best professor I've had yet at Valencia. If you're expecting to pass this class without studying you'll most likely struggle. She expects you to KNOW to material because you need to know it in the real world if you aspire to have a nursing career. She offers lots of opportunities for extra credit you just have to be prepared.
Great class. The 'hardest' part was in class assignments that you can do in groups. She provides study guides shorter than the lectures with information that is actually on the exams. Exams are proctored, but she allows one paper which should be your study guide. Lowest grade is replaced with average of first 3 exams. Offers a lot of extra credit.
Dr Kanani is a great prof if you make effort and do the work. She gives great notes with tons of videos explaining everything, is quick answering questions, fair and respectful, and gives many chances to get points for a better grade. If you wanna learn, she's a great prof. but if you're looking for just easy grade, she's not for you then.
She is an OK professor. She has a strong accent, it is hard to understand really her lectures, I used khan academy to study for this course.
This prof is organized and thourough, has plenty of videos explaining difficult topics in a way easy to understand and gives good notes to study. Her tests are fair and follow questions in her assignments, be ready to study few hours a week though, she's always there to help and answers questions quickly, overall a very good experience
She is a great professor, clear with what you need to know, her notes are great, explains everything really well in her videos. take her assignments seriously bc her exams correlate to her assignments, very quick answering questions. recommend her if you're taking the course to get into health programs
If you're looking for a sign to take this professor this is it! Absolutely loved her she's one of the best professors I've ever had. The class is challenging, but she provides many resources that make studying much easier. There are plenty of opportunities for easy extra credit, and the course is very straightforward and organized.Highly recommend!
took her as a transfer student for h&p 1 and i would definitely take her again. she has a grace period on assignments and exams for 48 hrs besides the first one for fin. aid credit. she is super kind. the lecture assignments are a bit lengthy like 30-40 questions a week but its very doable bc its all in the ppts she provides. lots of extra credit !
Great prof, plenty videos explaining everything, no busy work or unpleasant surprises, pretty straght forward, gives assignments to help prepare for exams, exams are on her notes & videos. answers questions quickly, VERY attentive, obvious she geniounly cares for students, be ready to study, AP is not easy, but she makes it manageable, recommend
Professor Kanani is AMAZING! I took her A&P 2 class online, and she had many resources to help you study and pass the exams. She is very responsive when communicating with her; any questions I had, she was always very helpful. Her videos helped me when studying and with homework. If you put in the work, you will pass! I definitely recommend her!
Quizzes & exams are not proctored but that doesn't mean you don't have to study. Her answers for these questions are based off of her lecture videos/PowerPoints not the internet. Gives extra credit for on time submission on exams, extra credit quizzes and extra credit discussions put in the work and you'll do great! Would take again!
honetsly, the most organized class I've ever taken, the professor is really responsive, answers questions fast and is always there to help and gives good feeback, expectations are totally manageable, everything on exams comes from her notes and lecture videos, you definitely have to study, you can't just google everything.honestly highly recommend
