Reviews of professor Denise Zabala

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Prof Zabala is great at what she does. She demonstrates and she tells us what to know for exams. She also gives great feedback and explains how to note things for each system. The quizzes are open book and she goes over reading questions to see what's important. Her kahoot for finals was super helpful! Point is: work for your grade.

There's a huge difference between her in lab vs lecture. For pharm lab, she was the sweetest person ever but I heard nothing good about her for health assessment lecture. In lab, she broke down everything really well and made it clear what to practice for each exam. Everyone also felt really prepared for the skills final.

Professor Zabala is a real gem who makes sure you understand the material before going forward. She has a straightforward grading policy- which is to work for your grade. Every exam and quiz is what she says and the blueprints help. Lectures are saved for future reference and she is available for office hours to help you! Love her so much.

Professor Zabala is one of the great professors at LIU. She's thorough with her lectures and exams. Listen to her lectures and take notes, especially when she says, "know this, highlight this" it means it's gonna be on the exam. And also, reading the textbook helps. It's no easy A; you work for it, you get it!

this course is difficult. Students have to know how to study instead of reading textbooks only. what we learned will apply to future career. Students have to know the knowledge of practice and lab materials. DO pay attention about the weekly lab report. This is the most useful tip for this course. Meet professor in the office hour to get help!!
