Even is an amazing professor. He makes biology, even the branches of biology that I originally had no interest in, seem so much more fascinating. He makes the subject matter come alive. I came away from each of his lectures feeling that I had learned a lot and had spent my time well.
Usually it's hard for me to actually attend EVERY lecture of a class, but it was not the case for EEMB2/ 3. Prof. Even IS defintely one of the best professors i've had here in UCSB. Not only does he make class fun, his style of teaching actually helps you retain some of the dry materials needed to be taught. Take him and you won't regret it. :)
This prof. and class was awesome! It not only is interesting, but it is easy and fun too! He is hilarious and tells priceless stories so you should definitely go to class. The book is pointless to read but you should read the reader (which is interesting anyway). Highly recommended!
BEST Biology teacher ever, I was dreading taking this class because I am not a science person and it ended up being my favorite class of the quarter and he is one of the best teachers i have ever had, I highly recommend this class, perfect for the GE requirement
loved him
great prof! tells great stories and class is pretty easy if u go to lecture
Great professor! Go to class and you dont have to read anything. He gives you the exact pages to read and focus on. Review last years midterm (if you know some one who has had him). Its very similiar. DR EVEN ROCKS!
best bio professor on campus
awesome
well...being that i am my stupidest in science, this class was so hard. so hard to the point where that i am retaking it to get rid of my F. yeah, if you sucked at bio in high school, do not take this class. it's not "easy bio" like my friend told me, it's just "easier" than what the bio majors take. still way hard. however, he is a cool teacher.
Hilarious! Also makes things very clear. Great professor!
so interesting. He was able to relate the information to everyday life. Class was good and so was the professor. I read the entire reader because it was so interesting!! And he is hot.
He made lectures fun and interesting. He has a sense of humor and isn't bad to look at!! :)
He is SO awesome! He made Bio Interesting with all his examples and throwing vegetables at us! HAHA!
I LOVE HIM
His name is not TJ, it's Thomas (in case you look for him on a catalog). He is the best professor I have ever had in 3 years. His tests are exactly what he says they'll be. And they're super easy if you study and go to lectures. On top of that, he's not dull or boring, very funny and brings the lectures to life. TAKE THIS CLASS HE'S GREAT!
while doing his evaluation today, i could not find any reasons to give him less than "excellent" for ANYTHING. great professor!!!
What the heck was that person talking about (05/16)? I cannot remember one time he was cocky or uninteresting at all. His lectures are exactly what is on the midterms. You don't even have to study much to get an A. He is such a great professor. One of the best. You don't have need much of a biology background to take this class. Highly recommended!
Definately recommend this class. Lectures are sooo much fun and he always adds in personal and funny stories to spice up the lectures. Tests are the most well written (it's not a BS test and it really does test to see what you know). I wish I could take more classes w/ him... he's great. :O)
Even is cocky and not attractive at all. He is obsessive compulsive which is good at time and a pain in the ass at other times. His lectures aren't very interesting and he says some pretty inappropriate things. I wouldn't reccomend this class.
Great professor. Loved the class. Bummed to find out he's married with 2 kids.
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!! He's such a great lecturer & person altogether. He always tells us hilarious stories and his midterm was really easy (I got an A and studied for about an hour and a half). He's the best professor I've ever had. He's also really cute, almost in a nerdy but charming way.
Dr. Even is one of the most thorough and conscientious instructors I have ever encountered. His teaching style is not only effective, but inspirational. Teaching is not only his gift, but also his passion. An added bonus is that he is one of the most charming and handsome men you will ever meet.
OMG! best klass i have taken thus far!!! his klass is SO fun, VERY entertaining and actually makes Bio really fun! He tells you Exactly whats going to be on the test so if you study for a while then you'll surely get an A! Oh yah, and i forgot to mention...he's HOT! I HIGHLY recommend his klass! :)!
