Reviews of professor Elizabeth Hughes

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
If your going into your first year I would recommend take BIO1020 over BIO1000, although labs suck you will get a better mark. Do not take with this prof, she only reads off the power points and class is extremely bad atmosphere. Class is very fast paced and very content heavy and very broad spectrum of biology.

This is a very difficult course it involves going to every lecture because you can be tested on things said outside of the slides and memorizing many bacteria, viruses, etc. This prof does a great job of being clear about the difficulty of the course and gives you many resources to succeed. The prof does a great job explaining and taking questions.

Hughes can be funny and laid back, but her class is beyond boring. Every class is a lecture and you need to be there because her powerpoints aren't enough to ace the two tests. Only 5-6 assignments total so blow the midterm or final and it completely ruins your grade. LOTS of article reading and they are on the exams. Minimal grades. Hard tests

May/June term - very straightforward lecturer who primarily reads right from the PowerPoint. Lectures aren't super engaging but the class is easy and a repeat of high school bio in my experience. Dr. Hughes always answered questions clearly and checked in with students throughout the class. Easy open book quizzes and fairly simple exams.

 She is not a GOOD TEACHER AT ALL so aviod She does not even know what to teach all she does is read the slides, so not worth wasting your timeThe mid-term consist questions that are not even discussed in class at all. Please invest time in self-studying. Explore topics online and do very hard work by yourself if you want to do well in this class.

Do not take her if you dont have to. way too much work for just a gen ed. gives you a really hard midterm and really hard final. she gives you these annoying reaction vlogs that take up too much time as well as a photo activist discussion that was a bit difficult to collect.

Nightmare of a class. 3/4 assignments were not graded/handed back before the final exam, no help when it came to exam studying (no practice/guidance on what concepts to focus on). Lecture heavy, asks most specific questions on exams, will try to mess you up on exams by changing one word to make the answer wrong. "More than 1 of the above" MC q's.
