Reviews of professor Denise Jarboe

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Jarboe is very knowledgable. She tends to go off in tangents, but her stories helped me remember critical information. She teaches the same way that she thinks, scarmbled, so be prepared for that. She wants all of her students to fully understand and be able to apply information, so she wont just pass you if she feels youre not understanding.

This was one of my favorite professors, she is very passionate in what she does and always motivates you to do better and always helps when your having a difficult time.

Dr. Jarboe is very understanding, if topics were not understood she would break it down or the next class she would come with a group/ class activity. When she isn't sure about a question she isn't afraid to say she will have to look into it and would come back with a response the next class. She always comes prepared with multiple resources.

I took Pathophysiology with Dr. Jarboe. She does go off topic from time to time. Her handout and PowerPoints are good resources to study with although it's a lot. I suggest using Patho Made Easy book to better understand the information in simpler terms. The exams are majority of the grade.

I was so excited for patho last semester and it did not go well. As a person I really enjoy her and I believe she is very funny and in clinical Im sure she is great. But, in class she makes all these big plans at the beginning of the semester and by the end you realize you havent learned a thing. You need read to learn

Textbook chapters are long and hefty, but online resources are provided that can help you on exams and to understand the chapter better. ASK FOR BREAKS during class because she will forget. Blueprints for exams are helpful (page numbers provided). A lot of homework that is due at midterm or final, BUT WILL HELP YOU, start this work early.

Dr. Jarboe is really not a bad teacher but I think she just isnt very organized. She gives 30 handouts every class and expects you to read all those and the textbook to understand the information which isnt bad if during class we got something worthwhile. I honestly feel like shes a lab professor shes just better in practice.

Dr. Jarboe is very knowledgeable and passionate about nursing. Her passion is often misinterpreted as being mean. She provides a lot of resources including handouts and PowerPoints that breakdown the information for easier understanding. Her blueprints are fantastic and her exams are easy if you read. She is great and I loved being taught by her.

Dr. Jarboe is an exceptional professor, dedicated to imparting all her nursing knowledge to her students. Provides handout notes and PowerPoint. Her sense of humor makes her a wonderful person to have around, especially for struggling students. She is an outstanding professor and truly deserves recognition. I wish she taught all nursing students.
