Im taking the class now, and she is a bad teacher. Its her first time teaching the lecture and she doesnt know what she is doing. You dont have to go to class, because she post the notes online, and all she does is read her notes to the class for lecture. She gives bad examples. You have to learn all on your own. Her first test was difficult.

She's under 30 which I think makes her a more productive teacher vs. some 50-something who could be burned out. So this is good. Class tests mostly come from her PPTs. Class Assignments boost your grade. A couple chances at extra credit. I had to put in a lot of library time but it was worth it-- I'm content with my B, considering the subject.

Show up EVERY TIME because what she considers "Skill Check" points are actually just Attendance Points. Other than that, study the PPTs backwards and forwards for the quizzes and you'll do fine. Then do it again 50 more times before the Practical (80 questions) and you will be set. I got an A in lab which I was actually thrilled about.

Vanessa is the best, science has never been my forte but Vanessa is really fun and teaches you the material in a way that you will learn. She gives you a day off from class before an exam and she truly wants you understand and learn yet knowing that your a college student that has other things to do.I would definitely take another class with her.

She is an amazing professor!! The class is very hard but she makes it easy. All you really need to do is study the powerpoints and you will be fine. One thing i found challenging was that she says things that are not in her powerpoints so make sure you write down whatever she says. I suggest printing the powerpoints out. GOODLUCK!

There are 5 PROCTORED exams (but 1 gets dropped) - it was stressful! I got an A as my final grade, but I worked SO MUCH! But Prof Hormann is amazing. This crazy course isn't her fault.

Organized, provided materials for exams. Here is my tip: you can only pass if you STUDY. Don't cram at the end bc it's A LOT. Study whatever on the practical sheet after each lab. Complain: averagely 3-5 hw assignments/each lab, exams are hard and proctored, spelling matters. I've heard other professor give full credit if the class get 60% correct.

Fantastic science professor. Even though I dislike science, and biology especially, she made the class bareable in her easygoing teaching style. She was very sweet and funny but the class is not necessarily an easy A, I had to fight for the grade.

Professor H is organized, but the class is tough. Lots of info to memorize, with no word bank on exams. Use the review sheets and unstuckstudy ai to prepare - a must for this class.

Anyone who is in search for a lab to pair with the lecture, I would highly recommend this professor. She is very caring to her students and will let you know when assignments are due. There are quizzes each time in class but if you read the manual, you should be perfectly fine.

Yes it is a lot of work and you need to take time on your own to fully understand the material but she lectures very well and explains the material to your understanding. Her D2L shell is very organized, the course workload is clear, and she is passionate about her teachings. Half the test is in person and online labs for the half of the test.

Very nice professor, but be prepared to read and spend various amounts of hours doing homework.The test are a large portion of your grade so its important to study. She does allow you to use a note card on the test, if you want to pass stay on top of the schedule she provides and be sure to study for the test. if you do all of this you will pass.

As a non-bio major, this proffesor was so understanding and so nice, although the amount of assignments may seem intimidating they are easy to do, and she does give you second chances to get a higher grade. Do study for the tests but at the end of the semester there is a participation final test you can take if you want to bump your grade.

Listen! Dr. H is very organized, she is probably one of the nicest people at BC. I have never seen someone focus a microscope so quickly. I took the lab as blended, 7 weeks, crazy busy...learned a lot, but it was hard work. Won't lie, Dr. H made it bearable, answered all my emails, offered advice and study tips. Wish I had her for lecture as well.

Professor Hormann is one of the sweetest professors I have ever taken. She is so nice, very engaged with her lectures and makes Bio easy to comprehend. She is very organized with everything. Three tests in class, one online and the final is a comulative exam that is optional. Assignments are online, very easy also, you just have read the material.

Professor Hormann is a genuine, sweet professor who always lightens the mood with a few jokes and made going to class enjoyable. She is patient, cares about her students and wants everyone to pass! Workload was not too heavy and was blended online & in person. I took the fastest session for the class and the lab and passed with an A. Choose her!!

Professor Hormann was a joy to have during online. She sends announcements each week to help keep you on track + very responsive to emails. She manually checks the quizzes and exams which was very appreciated. Exams are filled in the blank, no multiple choice, so if you don't study you won't pass. She provides PowerPoints to study off of to help.

She is Hilarious! She really knows a lot and is a great professor. One of the only professors that actually teach. Graded class assignment every class, as well as connect assignments and test. Attendance not mandatory but you will get a zero on class assignment if miss. If you study you will do good. Take at home final unproctored, and use notes.

I am terrible at science and in high school I could barely get a B in my classes but with this professor she made the class easy to understand. The exams were also pretty easy! I also took her for biology lab which was a super easy class. There's a bit of work but all of the assignments are super easy and took me max one hour to do them.

This professor runs a very tough class packed with super heavy reading with no study guides. You must read entire chapters as anything can appear on the test. Quizzes are hard since you only have 15minutes to answer 30+ questions. But she's responsive to emails, handles issues well, and offers some extra credit to help boost your grade.

Professor Hormann is an amazing professor. She helps her students to succeed and excel in anatomy and physiology which is a hard subject overall. She is quick to explain and answer questions when needed in class. She gives great tips on remembering certain things. Her powerpoints help a lot for practicals and quizzes.

She's very helpful and super nice. The material can be difficult, especially if you're not majoring in biology or a science field, but she always helped and guided us. The exams were pretty hard, I would say, but the assignments were totally fine, and she gives extensions if you need them.
