she's very understanding, and a great prof. She teaches the course material very well and is always willing to help students understand concepts better.

PAT 202 was definitely harder than 201 for me but Petrina is the QUEEN. She is an amazing, kind, and caring prof and is ALWAYS there for you. I encourage you to post questions on the discussion board and read Petrina's responses to other students, it's genuinely REALLY helpful. You're SO lucky to have Petrina so make the most of it!

Overall teaching wise, petrina is okay. She reads off the slides and talks a lot about her experience at sickkids although it doesn't really relate to what we're tested on. Other than that, she's very nice, responds to emails adequately and helps you find strategies to improve your test taking skills

Content is heavy & requires commitment but lectures/slides are comprehensive and really help you understand why the information is relevant to nursing practice. Petrina is one of my favourite professors, she explains clearly, is interactive and invested in our success. Always looked forward to lecture! If you engage in the content you'll do well.

Petrina is one of those profs who really understands the material, and is able to teach it really well. I love her kahoots, and I love the fact that she's able to relate the content to the real world. Just attending her lecture lets me understand the slides way more than on my own. I totally recommend her as a prof.

She's very a hard prof, also a really hard marker. Will give you a 0 if she doesn't understand what you write

This is not like an anatomy class, you actually have to understand the material rather than memorize to do good on exams. Petrina is an amazing professor, she really cares about the students, I would say review the content before going to lectures or else nothing will make sense. If you are unsure about something, reach out to her.
