Comment:
A great professor that really cares about the students. Boosted my interest. Very respectable, and intelligent but also personable. Lana the TA is not fit to be a TA. She's too busy and her marking scheme is totally subjective. She's awkard and doesn't know what she is doing. I wonder if she ever passed English in high school?

Comment:
One of the best profs I have had at UBC and definitely the best in the psych department. Finally a prof that challenges UBC's approach to psych research...UBC's approach to most things actually. Very interesting, concise lecturer. Too bad he's retiring!

Comment:
He is one of the best speaker i've seen on campus. He really knows his stuff and you won't ever want to miss his class, it is just that good. His exams are gennerally not that hard, just like Dr. Dutton's, he talks about too much of everything in class, so just focus on the overhead.

Dr. Yuille provides community training to professionals. He is extremely interesting, funny and brilliant. He knows his stuff by heart, can quote stats to back everything up, and tells you if no one has the answer to complex questions...

You know he's a genius in his field. I found his class amazingly interesting - I only wish he would have taught all year instead of only one of the semesters. Wasn't around all that often - which wasn't good when we needed info. Looks a little like Santa!

Yuille knows his stuff. The lectures are great because he just gets up there and does his thing; no looking at papers or anything. Tests are fair and if you include some of the supplemental readings you can do well.

Lectures don't get much better than his. However, his large class sizes doesn't give him much chance to interact with his students and he isn't readily available for help.

He shows up to lectures with the attitude that it's punishment for him; that we should be honored to be in his presence
