I took her for General Biology, and the class was very content-heavy yet pretty interesting. All the slides and lecture videos are posted on time, and she provides a lot of tools to succeed, while still being realistic and pointing out specific things to memorize or focus on. To succeed in her class, you just need to follow the lectures, highlight things that she notes are important and study ahead of time!

Patricia is a very relaxed and knowledgeable teacher. She's nice, sometimes funny and is very flexible with helping her students and due dates. I definitely would take her again!
