Reviews of professor Zandra Pinnix

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Pinnix is an amazing professor! She genuinely cares about her students. Lectures were always engaging. Weekly quizzes made you keep up with reading and studying. She was always available during office hours. Take her class; you won't be bored at all!

Dr. Pinnix is a nice and caring woman, but a HORRIBLE biology professor. She barely teaches and when she does it is reading off of a slide quickly that does not make any sense to people. She also cancels class a ton or has you come in just for exams, aka you don't learn at all but are tested on the material at least once a week. Take a dif prof!

Reads directly off the PowerPoint way to fast to take notes. Does not inform you about what you actually need to know until the last moments of class before a quiz. Is not available for office hours. DOes not respond to emails.

Dr. Pinnix is kind of a mess. I don't think she's as bad in lab as she is in lecture (it's definitely bearable) but her instructions often don't make sense and it often seemed like she didn't really even know what she's talking about. The tests were also a mess; she repeats questions and didn't tell us there was a practical on the midterm.

Took her for bio 201 at UNCW it was the hardest class I have taken at uncw. The test and quizzes are super hard and there is rarely a curve. class is just lecture and moves very fast. PowerPoints on canvas are different than the one she uses. Homework assignments every week. Only gave one extra credit opportunity but it was kinda a lot of work.

she's all over the place, you'll have a quiz every tuesday and a test every other thursday, the notes are online but she's not a good teacher, great person but she repeats questions on tests and makes mistakes while grading. i wouldn't recommend her

This course taught by Dr. Pinnix was absolutely amazing and engaging!  She taught genetics using science fiction movies!  Take this course.  You won't be disappointed!

Dr. Pinnix is a very caring person who wants to make sure that you understand the material. She used demonstrations in class to explain what would have been very difficult concepts. If you have trouble understanding biology, you should take her class. She makes hard concepts very easy to comprehend!
