Reviews of professor Josue Urbina

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I took Prof Urbina for Biology and while he's a good person and you can tell he really does care, it's hard to understand his class. The way he teaches is confusing and I was constantly lost. You do need the access code to do your learnsmart homework, which is an easy A but time consuming. I failed the final exam, yet somehow passed with a B.

This assignments were easy but exams were a bit hard. Be sure to study a lot in this class. The professor is nice and responds fast. He did offer extra credit which does help your grade. Like I said, be sure to study for exams.

There's ALOT of info to learn in this class. Professor Urbina breaks it down to where anyone can understand the material. There are labs which are fairly easy and fun but make sure you are really soaking in that info in because the lab exams are hard! There are 4 exams + the final which are timed and on lockdown browser! DO THE WORK! and youll PASS

Biology is not an easy class. however, professor Urbina was very helpful. he uses analogies, videos, and different ways of explaining. he gives also extra credit that supports your grade. Wish he teaches Bio II. The semester is not done yet, but I'm pretty sure I'll get an A.

DOES NOT RESPOND TO eMAILS UNTIL YOU ''CC" THE DEAN IN THE eMAILS. Avoid this professor at all costs. Treats the course like a chore and not a job. Reluctant to provide accommodation for student disabilities that were registered with the school (he legally HAS to). Bunch of HW, online labs, exams are hard if you can't find the answers online.

First science course in college & it really stood out to me & fueled my love for the field, he is very knowledgeable & will clearly answer any questions asked, 2 lab practicals, and 5 exams including the final. Labs were fun & the reports were fairly easy if you understood the lab. Do not expect to pass if you dont study outside of the course.

Let's just say I've had worse teachers than this one.  The class isn't difficult, but it's not that easy either, if you do all the homework and get a good score on the exams you'll do well.  What I didn't like at all is that he NEVER answers emails, and when he does, he never does it clearly, so you waste your time.

I've emailed him three times during the duration of the semester and was never responded to.  He would forget to upload and grade assignments and when asked a question he would not clearly respond with an answer. The only thing I can say that was good about the class is that he gave us two attempts for every unit test however, they are proctored.
