LOVE this professor, I took him again for 1407 and made A's in both courses. He is very patient & passionate. If you have a question, go ask him. There are 4 tests but he makes reviews, DO THE REVIEWS & study & you'll pass. Come to class everyday, he has questions that pop up through out his ppts, its his way of attendance and easy 100 for you.

In 1407, the online homework w/ textbook wasn't bad, just do it. Also, show up for the 1-5 pop questions in his ppt, its how you'll get easy 100. His tests are alright, do the review he puts up and do not avoid the vocab words, these tests I thought leaned more to the vocab words than questions. Overall, study some, show up, and you should pass.

Johnson was a really great teacher. Be ready to devote a lot of your time to studying for the tests because they're a lot of information. There's three tests, class clicker quizzes every lecture, and there's lab. As long as you study the notes on Johnsons BB, for lecture, pretty thoroughly you'll make an A in the class.

His class was a fun class. Information was fun and he liked when people participated. It was very lecture heavy but if you study and understand the masterings you are fine. Lab was a blast as well.

Mr. Johnson brought me out of my struggle to love science. He teaches A&P so well and will stop during lectures several times to ask if anyone is confused/has questions. As long as you show up, take notes, and do the online work, you'll do great! I'm taking him again for A&P II.

I thoroughly enjoyed Mr.Johnson's class! So much so that I am taking him again for Anatomy II. Just show up to class, and do all of your work. He also always gives Extra credit on exams, and is very understanding. Highly recommend!

Awesome professor he dropped our lowest exam grade and some of our low assignment grades. Attendance isn't mandatory but he has a quiz every class that's like 3 questions long and sometimes its about class and other times he just does it to give credit for those who are there. So i would go to class.

Lots of homework

I had Johnson for A&P 1 and the course itself is challenging, but he makes it as straightforward as possible, provides fill in the blank notes to go along with the power points, he cares about his students, don't skip, his tests are very straightforward, he sometimes says what specifically will be asked, he does drop 1 test and multiple assignments

He just wants you to pass the class. You have to be show up to lecture, there is an attendance quiz every day. The homework is online and easy to manage. The lecture tests are made from the homework. He also instructs some labs. Lab itself is not hard by any standard just show up. I took another prof and dropped to take micro with him, worth it!

The lectures can be dry, but engaging with the material and using resources like unstuck AI for study prep makes this class manageable. Attendance is a must, so be prepared to put in the work.

I loved his class he's very clear that the test are basically all the notes and thats so true, if you simply just study the notes you'll pass no problem, you have to go to class though he has a quiz every class.

The only reason I didn't learn more than I did in this course is my mind and discipline. Professor Johnson is a great teacher, extremely understanding, and I recommend him to any student who takes any biology.

Professor Johnson was great! He truly cares and wants you to succeed. Tests can be difficult, but He gives extra credit on every test. Every class you take an open book quiz, so make sure you are there. Go to class and study for tests and you will be just fine.

Would 100% take this professor again. I knew taking A&P ll as a 5-week summer class would suck, and I'm sure that if I had any other professor, I would've dropped it. This should not be allowed as a 5 week course. However, it was obvious he did absolutely everything he could to help us succeed. Responds/grades super fast!

Material was clearly and thoroughly conveyed in each class. If you attend class regularly you will do well on the test. Mr. Johnson is very explicit about what is on the test (lecture notes only}. His demeanor is always pleasant and encourages participation. I thoroughly enjoyed this class and would recommend him highly to future students.

I love Mr. Johnson, and that is really it. He made microbiology fun and easy, which helped me maintain a high grade. Make sure to take notes and actually study, especially for the extra credit sections. He posts all the powerpoints so it is simple really!
