Professor Zimmerman is a great teacher. She is accessible and checks her email frequently. Since this was an online class, every assignment and test is given through ReggieNet. Make sure you complete the study guides and take the practice exams prior to taking the exam to be prepared, and don't hesitate to complete any extra credit assignments!

Comment:

Dr. Zimmerman was funny and very easy to meet with! Sometimes criteria is not always clear for assignments, but she is more than understanding and willing to meet with to explain or go over what is expected. Make sure you read and fill out the study guides before doing the homework assignments and self check questions, it'll help you do better.

I absolutely loved her. She is a great and funny person that makes the material more fun than it actually is. She is very clear on what she expects. If you ever need her help, she is there for you. 4 2 page papers that are not bad. Little homework. Tests are the most difficult part but should get a B on if you feel comfortable with the information.

Avoid this class if at all possible. She thinks she's an English teacher, not a psychology professor. She is often unclear of her expectations. Do your self a favor, take a different class

She's the sweetest person ever! She grades papers really hard, but is very chill with everything else. She's kind of dry, but is very concerned that her class understands the material.

She is a wonderful person and teacher. This was my favorite class of the semester. As long as you put in the effort you will pass this class. Plus, it's very fun. She makes even the most boring topics extremely interesting. Highly recommend this class!

Comment:

This class was the worst class I have ever taken. She doesn't know what she is talking about. She gets off topic ALOT. She gives ppt slides but they don't even help for the test so you have to read the book on your own. She is a very hard grader. You write alot of papers, two big research papers that are 8-12 pages long. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS!

Comment:

She gets off topic quite often, but she's so quirky and it can just make your day. Definitely have the book because she may not cover everything. She does print out her slides though and it is helpful to follow along. Super sweet teacher and she really does care.

Comment:

She's a corny teacher. She's very energetic. She knows what she's talking about but sometimes can lose you. Her notes are no help. just read the book but go to class to because her test as made up of examples that are from the book and class discussions or videos that you watch. She gives you experiments & about 4 papers to write. she's mediocre

Comment:

Dr. Zimmerman knows what she is talking about, but sometimes has trouble explaining things to those who are not familiar with the topics. If you actually do your reading and write FULL, grammatically correct, meaningful answers on the weekly homework and other writing assignments, you should do fine.

Tries her hardest to make class interesting but usually doesn't succeed. With that being said, class is still bearable most days and some days are better than others. Go to class, in class assignments help your grade and use the study guides when studying. Kind of difficult but went to most classes and got a B.

This class is a joke.She doesn't keep control of the class= distracting.Shes a nice person, but gives horrible, minimal notes and then makes the test rly hard.U must read the book for all the info she leaves out in class.I studied my butt off for exams, and only got C's. She words the Q's badly. If you have a choice, definitely take 111 w/ Wagman!!

She is really nice and helps to explain and go over exmaples whenever someone is confused. She sometimes has trouble remembering words, but she always has funny stories and makes the class enjoyable. If you love psych you will love this class & professor.

Comment:

This class is not about memorizing terms but rather knowing the terms and applying them to situations. Go to class because we do weekly or biweekly attendance activities for extra points. Do the extra credit as well. Tests are hard but fair
