Comment:
Biology is a heavy course already, so going into the class just beware of the work demand. Professor Suni cares about her students and wants to help improve their grades. Keeping up with work, and actively trying to understand the material helped me the most. She gives out reviews for each exam and those reviews helped SO much. 10/10!!! :)

This is a really difficult course, but she gives out a lot of resources for help (videos, concept maps, office hours, study sessions, etc). She shows that she really cares about her students succeeding in this course and puts a lot of effort into helping them succeed. Her lectures and worksheets really do help you understand the course content.

Comment:
Dr. Suni was a wonderful teacher but she's definitely not for everyone. If you do not show up to class or do the work she assigned, you won't do well in the course. She was very helpful in making sure her students did well but she hates students slacking off. All around a wonderful professor.

Dr. Suni is an amazing professor! She presents the material in a clear way and really wants her students to succeed. All the materiel she tests for is on her slides which she prints out for people who don't have a laptop. Just come to class, do the pre-lecture quizzes, and you'll do great.

Dr. Suni is an amazing professor! Her accent was a bit troubling to understand at first but it fades over time. She always posts her PowerPoints on tracs and has pre-lecture quizzes before each class. Bio is a very difficult class but by listening to her lectures and doing outside reading you will be fine! I finished with an A in her class.

Dr. Suni is the best professor that I had this semester. She cares so much about all of her students. She posts all her lecture notes online, so it's easy to follow the course content. Go to her office hours after every exam to review it. It is possible to do well in Bio thanks to Dr. Suni!

Dr. Suni was an amazing professor! She truly cares about you succeeding in her class. Bio is a difficult class in general no matter who your professor is. She offers so many opportunities for you to learn the material well. And offers extra credit

I took this class honors and it really put your biology skills to the test. All of the exams were open ended since it's writing intensive but she made sure we were well prepared. We would take her regular tests that were multiple choice as practice and they were relatively easier! I absolutely loved her overall. Really passionate as a professor.

Literally gives you print out notes with fill in the blanks. Lectures about the notes and exactly what is needed on the test. No need to read the book. She gives PLENTY of extra credit, and she is available for office hours. Her tests are very easy if you paid attention in class. You won't find notes anywhere as organized and easy to read as hers.

If you're not a science major... DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. I am a CJ major and this class was a joke. Literally wants you to know everything about everything that she has said. Shes an awesome caring teacher but all my tests were in the high 40's and low 50's. Top hat is used during class but other than that this class is hard af.

Better than most biology teachers. She helps with tests by giving extra credit and the did you learn it questions are what will help you pass the tests. Study and you will pass!

This is by far the best biology professor I have had. I took Neirth and got a D in her class and made a B in Suni's class. she gives extra credit and gave a 3-hour review before the final. She cares about your grade but you still have to study as it is a very hard course no matter what professor. The accent is heavy but totally understandable.

Random pop quizzes and tests are challenging but not unreasonable. She seems like a sweet lady but she really could shape up on her teaching. I found her class interesting at first but now I rely on the textbook ALONE to teach me what is going on in class.

She has a strong accent, but its manageable, sometimes. a lot of the time the class would agree that we didn't understand her lol. attendance isnt mandatory but there are random pop quizzes for a grade. Bio is hard and i honestly hate science classes so either way i am not very good at it. just wanted a C. some people were able to get an A so try!

As a teacher she had our best interest in mind. Always teaching us as much as she can and even providing extra lectures when she knew we would not be able to finish the material in our class time. However she is extremely difficult and does not put up with anyones crap. You either know the stuff or you don't.

She is a very good professor. The only reason I didn't make an A is because I didn't take her tests seriously enough and made one too many B's! She did give us one pop up quiz, but after seeing how we all did horribly, we instead had to do a 500 word plant report on anything we wanted to write about with plants. Final exam is optional.
