Reviews of professor Luciano Matzkin

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Personally did well on tests not showing up but got a 73% on one test. Did As on other test, reports and essay. As as in 100s. Got a B on my final and ended with a B in the class by one point out of 304. Final dropped grade to 89.8. No extra credit. Only two reports, two tests counted, and a final essay in for grades. Dont mess up. Gl

This class has a lot of reading, but everything is layed out clearly in a way that is easy to understand. You could watch the lecture videos, but I was able to do just fine in the class by going through the slides provided. There quizzes really go in depth with the topic so if you don't take super good notes, you could do really bad. Easy A.

As long as you follow the rules on the papers, you'll get 100s on them. Tests are easy if you do study guides bc they are basically the same! Recommend for a chill 170

Easy and interesting class. Lenient grading on papers and as long as you do the study guide and pay attention in class you'll do fine on tests. Prof is a great person and knowledgeable about what they teach. Highly recommend for an easy natural science credit.

ENTO 170C2 is definitely an interesting and easy way to get your life sciences requirement out of the way, and Dr. Matzkin is a great prof. to take it from. He's really funny and a really nice guy. The tests are moderately difficult but the papers aren't at all and the grading of them is very forgiving.

sweetest man!! lecture heavy but he is very supportive and he really cares about what he teaches. Attendance isn't mandatory but the content is so heavy that you really should just go:)

Prof. Matzkin was a very caring professor. The class was difficult for a GENED especially if you dont attend the lecture. A couple heavy papers, 4 total exams and bi-weekly discussions. No homework. Great/easy class if youre actually interested in insects! He is very passionate.
