CollegeProfessor Hofmann was awesome!! She is obviously passionate about her work and her section of EEMB 3 was super engaging and interesting. It is also the most difficult section of the class, and while it is a lot of memorization, she teaches it in a way that is very easy to understand. She is also very accessible and approachable.
Professor Hofmann is by far the best professor of the intro bio series (and I'd assume upper divs too if she teaches those). She makes lectures very engaging with her silly personality and real-world examples, and does an excellent job of communicating information in a way that is very easy to understand. Definitely take her!
Lectures provided were from 2 years ago. No effort at all. Had to rate the professor when he basically was not present, and test was prepared by someone else on topics that were not covered. Lectures are boring and monotonous. The only good thing tbh was a cute dog Tyler, this guy was the only thing I was looking forward to when watching them.
He was a really sweet professor who really cares about his students. He showed us really cool videos about his dog and plants that he sees on his hikes. Informational, inspirational, and interesting. Hope he continues making them!
Prof. Hodges is a really passionate, kind instructor. Lectures are detailed and reflective of exam content. CLAS and practice questions (especially from in-class quizzes) help. Organization could be better, and there is a lot of studying involved in his portion, but overall I recommend taking this class!
Extremely disorganized lectures which seem to jump all over the place, but if you pay attention and take good notes you'll catch on. He provided a practice final which contained a handful of exact questions from the midterm we were graded on, which was nice. No need to even open the textbook for this entire class.
