Reviews of professor Akintayo Akinleye

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Like all BIOL 111 labs, a lot of work. He clearly cared about us, making sure we actually understood the material every week, sending many helpful emails, learned the names of everyone in all 6 sections he taught & was readily accessible outside of class. Pretty funny too! Loved how he related concepts back to medicine for the premeds. Respected.

Tayo was a great TA. I do believe I learned more when he was teaching than in my actual lecture. He is super nice and he's pretty funny and easy to talk to. Going to the reviews for the midterm and final are so useful. His grading method helps you out a lot and you won't lose that many points

Learned more from him in my bio lab than from my prof in lecture. Really funny and explains things well. Gives you a little leverage on grading and made bio lab fun. His exam reviews for midterm and final bio lab exams were very helpful.

Akintayo is literally the best TA I have ever had (I've had 6). Hilarious, cares about your grade, and wants you to learn. His accent may be hard to understand occasionally, but other than that this man is as good as it gets!

Tayo was an amazing TA for this lab He went over a lot of things we went over in lecture to make sure we understood it! His quizzes tiwards the beginning were rough but he made them easier! He really set us up for success on the final and would grade very fairly on the labs! You could tell he cared a lot about the subject & medicine so we cared too

He was a great TA, and helped to explain concepts better than my lectures. He is very clear about what material will be on the exam, is available outside class, gives good feedback, but also has fairly difficult material to cover. Don't skip lab and pay attention! He is also very funny.
