Really nice lady, interesting lectures. She makes clear references to help better understand the material. Slides are online so a lot of people stop going to class, but you get a lot out of lecture and attending will really improve your mark. I didn't use the textbook much and did well off lecture alone.

So genuinely sweet and caring about students. She wants all of her students to do well. Uses great analogies and lots of visual aids during lectures to help material stick.

Comment:
Her class was very interesting because she uses simple terms to explain complicated material-psych material. She is very professional, listens to her students and allows them to speak freely in class regarding the lecture's material. Tests are fair so pay attention in class and read the book assigned. She is a teacher who truly cares about you.

Took both intro to PSYCH classes online. Read and you're good. Tests are 4-5 short answer followed by approx 80 multiple choice. Very easy. Helpful when I asked her things!

GERALDINE! Great prof! used a lot of videos to help bring home complicated or interesting topics. definitely a good prof. sit closer to the front because class size was big. shes very smart and wants to see that you pass and excel. she recommended extra videos to watch at home to help explain topics.

Uses lots of slides and videos in her lectures to keep it interesting. My mark could have been better if I paid more attention and studied harder. I would take her class again

Geraldine is a great professor. During lectures she uses Powerpoints and slides 80% of the time, and the other 20% of the time she shows short videos to help explain things better. Fair test marker and is VERY interested and knowledgeable about Psychology. Highly recommend the course and prof!

Very nice and friendly prof. I thought she tried to make the class interesting by playing videos, telling stories, etc. Tests were straight-forward and marked fairly. Had to read the book in addition to the notes, but over-all the class is pretty easy. Would definitely take more classes with Geraldine.

I love her as a professor. Yes sometimes the lectures drag on and can be a little lifeless, but she really cares for her students and wants to see us succeed. I would definitely take another course with her if given the chance.

Very boring class but test are straight forward. As long as you either attend class, or stay home and read the text book, the class is pretty easy to pass.

I found it hard to stay awake in the dark room with only the glow of her lifeless slides illuminating the front of the room. She is unenthusiastic. She seems to be a nice woman but she should not teach.

I thought the material presented in this class was very appealing and I thought I may really enjoy the class and do well, however geraldine could put a student with sleep apnea to sleep in her class, I found her very boring and non-enthusiastic

I took this class first term and shortly dropped it! It seems to be more a biology class than a psch class! It was way over my head!!
