Reviews of professor Michael Steury

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I could not have asked for a better prof. Very good lectures and his labs were not too complicated. He has a small amount of homework (pre labs and weekly quizzes) but gives plenty of time to get them done. He also has a great system to gain points back that you have lost so you can improve your grade!

Prof Steury is by far the best teacher I have ever taken. Cell Biology was a challenging class but it opened by eyes to the world of research. Material heavy and difficult tests that pushed me to learn. Instead of lab reports we had the choice to review relevant research literature, one of most valuable skills I take away from college.

Human physiology contains a lot of material and it can seem overwhelming at times; however, Dr. Steury's lectures are very clear and he is always willing to explain things again and answer questions. He cares about your success in the class and wants you to learn. Very organized, worthwhile labs, and a review session before each exam!

Dr Steury was a fantastic professor. Very clear grading criteria and participation requirements. Steury connects to students and makes you feel welcomed in a safe environment. I recommend!

Class is very tough. I did not like his powerpoint method. He uses a tablet to write on the slides as he goes, so it makes it hard to read his handwriting. He also does not upload the filled in slides, so if you miss lecture you don't have the information. Has some interesting stories, but the material is difficult.

Great at explaining topics, class is all lecture. Worst part about this class is literature reports where you read an academic paper and write a response to it, takes a long time if you aren't familiar with academic writing. Studying for tests was stressful because of the intricacies of the topics, but he gives good study guides

I really enjoyed him for BIO 110. His lectures were very clear and to the point. Stuery was a very down to earth and chill prof. The material was tough at times but he did a great job explaining things and always helps you if your stuck. Would definitely take again!

Professor Steury was one of the best professors I have had in my college experience. He gave partial credit and extra credit on exams. Our lab work-up consisted of us reading outside research material relevant to our labs and writing about it. Overall he was amazing!

The best professor I've had so far! The entire course structure is amazing, his lectures are understandable yet concise. Steury is also kind and understanding and you can always reach out to him for help even if it's not about his class. He truly wants you to succeed. I only wish he taught more BIO classes! Plus he kinda looks like Ed Sheeran! :)
