Shes a great teacher, even though i got a C, I was going to get a big F if it wasnt for her. She is really helpfull when you maintain a good relationship with her and of course if you dont interupt her during her lecture class. Overall she wants all her students to pass so just be in her good side and she will help you out. She is leniant and nice.

She was very helpful with questions, although sometimes it was a little difficult with the language barrier/accent. However, she knows the material, and is very approachable. She will help you to grasp the ideas, and is not at all condescending, makes it a fun and easy class if you're willing to do the work.

She was my lab teacher for micro. Very nice. Easy to get along with. Very understanding when you needed clarification because of her accent. No problem. Tough. It's a tough class. She has a great sense of humor too. At first you're wondering what you've gotten into, but by the end, you love her very much.

shes nice and everything but the study load was a lot to handle when u have already 2 hard classes and a full time job. she does give extra credit. shes a good lab teacher but sadly she wasnt mines. lab matters so get a good teacher

Dr. Khamankar is a very good professor. She tries her best to help students understand, and wants everyone to do well, but she doesn't like when people don't show up for class. YOU HAVE TO GO TO CLASS. Even if you aren't the best at biology, it's okay because she gives a lot of extra credit opportunities, you just have to show up to get the chance.

Dr. Khamankar was really helpful and approachable. She gives out a lot of extra credit, just attend class to make sure you get the opportunity for it.

VERY nice teacher! She is willing to help and is very laid back. She is still a biology teacher, and though her class/ subject might not be the most fun, she is still willing to help any student.

Hard subject, hard tests, easy papers. Dr Khamankar is sometimes hard to understand because of her accent but she is very nice and very helpful. She understands that this class may be hard for many people so she is very flexible with giving extra credit. Effort goes a long way in her class.

She is very willing to help and wants you to understand. Used the lecture book rare but def used the lab book. If you do bad on a test she is more than willing to help you retake.

She taught the lab only in my section and did a great job. Really nice, great explanations, and extremely helpful.

Dr. K is extremely helpful and kind. She is very approachable and makes it clear that she's here for the students. Her accent is not difficult to understand if you're actually following along when she's teaching. Dr. K is one of the best instructors I've had a NLC. :)

Bio is hard, so don't expect it to be easy. Dr.K is really awesome and talented, and she explains well. Be attentive in class, and take notes. I made an A, but i worked for it. One advice, don't drop the class even if you are failing; she will work with you at the end.

Biology is not a easy subject, at one point I thought about dropping this class but don't! Make sure you attend class I promise it will be worth it in the long run, I really had to study for her class, by no means is it "easy" I definitely had to work for my B+ in her class. She gives A LOT of extra credit in the end so it's all worthwhile!

she is the best

Great Professor. Good sense of humor. She wants you to succeed. She offers extra credit opportunities and post study guides for each exam. Not an easy subject but she will try to make things less complicated and clear.

Dr. K is a great lab teacher, but not a great lecturer. Her tests are MC but mostly critical thinking questions, which I liked, but most students don't. I used the MasteringBiology website A LOT for this class, and it helped me tremendously. Biology is hard - you have to study, even if the lecture isn't great.

She is a sweetheart! She does help you if you ask for help! She is so nice and will try to explain things you do not get. The tests are hard, so to pass you must attend class and study not only the powerpoints but also read the book. The class is a bit challenging so be prepared for it. She is willing to help but you need to study hard!

Currently in her class. She does have an accent, but she's very well spoken & easy to understand. We've had 2 quizzes & our first test. Got perfect scores on the lab quizzes & an "A" on the test. I have never opened my book. Her lectures & labs have all the information you need. Show up every day, pay attention, & take notes & you will do fine!

She is an awesome teacher! Just show the effort and she'll always be there for you. She will make sure you get the grade you want as long as she sees you work hard for it! She's the sweetest professor I've met and honestly I won't mind taking this class all over again :)

Dr. Khamankar is a great professor. She is so sweet and is willing to help in anyway she possibly can. I took this course online and it has been pretty difficult. The key to succeeding is to stay on top of your work or stay ahead. Thoroughly read the book and study the lecture notes and powerpoints.

She is such a nice lady, the powerpoints she goes over in lecture are online. They are helpful for tests which she also gives a review so study both and you'll do fine. I enjoyed her lab. She gives quizzes which aren't that bad. Make sure you attend lab, used for points. I really enjoyed her class over all! Does offer extra credit.

great teacher

Dr. K was very helpful when I asked. I took this online. Read the book, look at the powerpoints and WATCH ALL YOUTUBE VIDEOS from other professors that follow Campbell's Bio. The youtube SAVED ME. She gives mostly applied questions and her tests are hard! Print out practice tests 1 and 2 to study for the midterm. Same for final.

Lectures are good, but goes too fast over the material. Overall, a good biology teacher!

Prof. K is an awesome instructor. I took Biol 2420 in Summer 1(8-week class). Initially, I was struggling with the class because she was fast and the class was full of Nursing students but I went to her for help and she assisted me. She was willing to give tutorials before the exam. Ask her for help if you need one. I will take her again.

wonderful professor. very nice and sweet. pay attention to her lectures and read the textbook. she is a great teacher but the material itself is hard. lecture tests are difficult but quizlet will help!!! her lab practicals are difficult but you can pull through if you participate in all experiments. still managed an A even when i took in summer

I liked Khamankar ; she is very knowledgeable and helpful. Her class wasn't really hard. The one thing that was a bit hard was memorizing terms. There is a bit of challenges with her lecture tests, too, but if you study beforehand, you can ace it. Khamankar can have a bit of an accent, so staying in front of the class is recommended.

Great professor.

Khamankar is THE BOMB... Though people complain about her accent, but she's soo easy to work with if you're ready to learn. Gives extra credit almost at every instance, for example, you took a lecture test early like the first three days, and something went wrong at the testing center. For taking the test already, you get extra credit, and so on.

The best professor EVER.!!! She is so nice, easy class just do your homework, labs and you will pass. Wants every student to succeed in her class.

she is an amazing professor, amazing lectures, if you have difficult to understand, she will use extra time to help you after class, very wonderful person, the best

This class was really cool! Be prepared to listen to lectures though. They can be kind of boring. The Power Points are accessible outside of class, and there are no tests only quizzes. All the quizzes are online. There is one comprehensive final of 76 question comprised of all the quiz questions.

Great professor. Lectures in class are over powerpoints & powerpoints are uploaded online. She provides a free textbook online which is nice because no extra cost for textbook. Mainly consists of quizzes & 1 final comprehension exam. She is understanding & offers extra credit at end of semester. Would definitely recommend!

Professor Khamankar is incredibly knowledgeable! She is a very sweet lady who is genuinely interested in her students. Her lectures are very well explained and she made biology interesting and exciting. I sincerely recommend her. She is amaaazing.

I took her BIOL 1406 class and she is a very sweet teacher. I took lecture in person and lab from home- the labs were pretty tedious, especially for a beginner. Her exams are pretty hard and her study guides don't really match the material she tests for, so I highly recommend attending lecture and asking questions in class.

This class was hard in the beginning, but the professor gave ample time, extra credit and grading curves to assist us when needed. She is very caring and understanding. She allowed make ups for so many students that missed Test or work. She is very sweet. Professor Khamankar has a very vast knowledge of her material is happy to answer all questions

She is really an amazing woman. I was nervous after reading the reviews on here. However, there is a lot of work, but easy to pass. The only reason I received a C+ is because I fell behind on my labs. You have to finish 10 labs to take the final and I only did 8. No book needed, just use the powerpoints and study. But the lab kit is a MUST. Thx VK

Awesome professor, offers help throughout this course. Willing to help at all times. Provides tips for success. Lots of quizzes and exams but if you take time to do it you will do fine. Also gives extra credit!

Did the 4-week online Summer course. It's fast, content-dense and requires great time mgmt. There are a ton of quizzes/exams over the chapters and labs, and they don't always match up with the material. I urge you to review your quiz/exam results closely though. There were quite a few incorrect answers in her system that I had to bring up.

She was my 1st teacher as a returning older student. She always responded to my emails promptly. When I had issues with a chapter, she spent 1 1/2 hours explaining it. She genuinely wants her students to do well. Graded labs according to what was received in the kit (I was missing some items) and according to procedure, not just the results.

I took the 8 week bio 1406 class and its very quiz and test heavy. There is only 3 lab reports due for this class and the rest of your grade is dependent on your quizzes and tests. He gives you the whole 8 weeks to turn everything in and he doesn't dock if you turn it in late as long as its in by the end of the 8 weeks.

I took this as a 5-week summer course. It was a ton of work. But as long as you keep on schedule, you should do great. Almost all the grades are quizzes or exams and the exams have the exact same questions as the quizzes. So if you study your quiz results, you should be ready for the exams.

Professor Khamankar was very nice and understanding at least with our class. However, the lecture exams contain questions that go super into detail on subjects that half the time were not covered during lecture. I learned more in our labs than I did in lectures. I relied heavily on the textbook and studied from there. Just keep that in mind.

She is a good professor ! I was also not ready to take her class because of the bad reviews and ratings but I am thankful for taking her class. She is very helpful and be ready to read!!!!! I highly recommend taking her class for Northlake students.

She is the best professor for Microbiology. She is very nice and caring. Even if you email her on Sunday she will immediately reply. I also thought she would be tough by seeing her reviews but Trust me, She is amazing!! Dont think twice if you are studying at North Lake college. Take her class.

She is the best professor Dallas college has, I will quite worried when I read the review here first but she genuinely cares about her students and wants us to succeed, learned a lot from her class I would definitely recommend her . She is the BEST

I took microbiology in person she is such a sweet heart . If you take her class one thing is for sure you will get good grades.exams and labs are so easy. Lecture Exam and quizzes are online but 2 lab exam are in person but she do a review question before the lab exam and the day of lab exam so you will pass.mam you are great.

Take her class

She is the best .

Best microbiology professor in Dallas college.

Dr. Khamankar LITERALLY provides you with everything you need to pass her class, study guides are key! course is accelerated, so commitment is key. You can easily pass this class with an A. The ones that are complaining about how hard she is, did not take the time to study for her class. Again, you have to put the work in, then yes you will fail.

Her class was amazing. You just have to keep up with it.

Mostly lecture heavy as Microbiology supposed to be. Don't expect an easy A but if you would like to work hard and just need a proper guidance, she is the one. A lot of extra credit is there to help you out.
