Reviews of professor Darin Peterson

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
I trusted the good reviews he had and now see why he has more bad ones. Peterson is not helpful at all, he will make you feel dumb for asking a question regarding his lectures. Pass, drop just do not take his class

I almost didn't take this class because of negative reviews but am so glad I ignored them. If you aren't lazy and actually demonstrate some effort, this class will be no problem for you. Very intelligent and clearly conveys his expectations and course material. Great guy, if he sees you put in the effort he will help you work through the material.

He was a good instructor. Gave you lots of opportunities to better your grade. Had lots of homework but all were pretty easy. Gave extra credit through the class as well. Really cares about his students. If you try you can easily get a good grade.

This class is definitely not easy but if you work hard you will pass. He is very intelligent and will work with you throughout the semester. He wants to see you put in effort. I would 100% take again. Great guy.

Probably worst biology teacher on campus. if you have him DO NOT take him. He does not make good study guides and makes them a day or two before the test. He used his high school anatomy notes over the college textbook. Half of the class is barely passing. Great guy but not a good teacher.

Will talk a lot in class(Noninformative).Better off reading it yourself to learn. Only time I listened was when he gave hints to test questions. Covers up flaws by creating quizzes(Easy Credit).Would always be making/announce Exams a week prior which left only days to study.Says he tries to help but his flaws limit you.Bad time management.Good guy.

He is very cocky and unresponsive with emails, he complains about everything that has nothing to do with our class. Study guide was pointless and he does not explain anything when asked upon. I passed but a lot of my mates did not

I enjoyed taking biology 20 with this professor, he was extremely accessible and fair, all you needed to do is complete homework on time and study for the tests.

I highly suggest you do not take this professor, his teaching is terrible and confusing. He is a high school biology teacher, so its almost as if he doesn't have time for this class. He has his high school students grade the tests. He will tell you what to study for a test, then the material on the actual test is nothing he said to study.
