Laura is THE BEST. Just take this class with her! Such a gem. The class was easier than high school biology (in my opinion) and Laura tried to keep the topics interesting and relevant. I really enjoyed this class and it was an easy mark booster (for a science elective). Use her unit notes and study guide questions to succeed!

She was super kind and understanding. She clearly cared about our wellbeing and mental health. The assignments and readings were easy and if we didn't understand something she would give extensions and send out emails explaining. The work was never overwhelming and she always gave enough time. 10/10 would recommend/ take again

Amazing prof, very clear on expectations. Assignments are quite heavy for 5%, but that's okay. Exams are fairly easy, the student markers are sometimes a little shady and don't give great feedback and low marks. Gives marks back quick- replies to emails quick-- a true gem!

There is a lot to do in this course, every week there was an activity or lab we had to submit but no activity took me more than a few hours. This course isn't hard, there is just a lot to do. But Laura is very understanding and really cares about her students. Awesome prof.

Laura was a very good prof! This class was super organized and easy to understand (honestly was an easy 90)! Whenever I had questions she responded quickly and gave great answers. There is quite a bit of reading to go along with each unit but there were study guides at the end of each unit which were so helpful!

Comment:

In all honesty, I would wait to take BIO 140 in person. Laura is knowledgeable and replies quick, but the entire course has been converted into words. You simply read the content on your own, and complete the course work. Hard if you don't learn by reading. Decent class overall, but didn't get to experience the Laura who is rated very good here!

Laura really cares about her students well-being in and outside of the classroom. She gave us plenty of work time, and a lot of feedback on assignments. She words biology down into easier phrases to understand. Laura was always available out of class time if needed. There were many things that were optional we could do for extra marks as well!

One of the best profs I've ever had! She will go out of her way to get you a good grade. Even allows you to hand in your study guides for extra marks. Study guides are basically the exams. She is pleasant, so helpful and always available. Definitely recommend.

Laura is one of the nicest profs I have ever taken. Extremely understanding of personal issues that may impact the ability to hand in assignments. The class is taught extremely well and her grading is beyond generous. The course is composed of reading assignments, reflection papers and summary essays.

She is one of the best proffesors here. Very kind and always approachable outside class. Great class for boosting GPA. My grade was 93 and the class average was 79.12! She used to give lots of chances for extra credit (for students who didn't do well or, want to do better). I recommend this class with Dr. Laura Ambrose. She is the best!

This is the second time I was able to have Laura as a prof. I would take her courses again and again. She is very kind and caring towards her students. Her courses and expectations are at just the right level. No textbook for this class as all resources are free online. It was her first time teaching the course for my group, but she did awesome!

Someone was complaining about how if they speak, then she will look at you and make you feel uncomfortable... honestly, people shouldn't be speaking while she is teaching in the first place. It super disrespectful. Plus, its a distraction to other students trying to learn. She is a really nice person. Super easy going, and very accommodating.

Laura makes you buy a $37 app for attendance and says it's mandatory then stops using it after the first week so you pay it for nothing. She also tries to hard to be relatable and it just ends up wasting class time and no one cares about what she's saying. If you talk even the slightest bit she'll stop talking and stare you down. Easy content tho

She is just amazing, and also made Biology very easy. I'll definitely take her if I ever get a chance again. The best part is she made study guides almost similar to exams and she also gives chocolate or candies sometimes ;)
