Comment:

He is the worst teacher I have ever had. My experience in his class was so awful that I actually wrote to the president of the college. After having such a great semester at Marymount I was really disappointed with him and his class.

Comment:

Do not take his class. Worst professor I've ever had. Doesn't know how to teach & not helpful. You can make up your own questions on his exams, but it doesn't really help... they're still insanely hard. You're whole grade is based off only 3 exams. He can be funny, talks about sex a lot which is weird. But still DO NOT TAKE A CLASS WITH HIM.

Worst class with the worst professor. You learn nothing. He doesn't give out a syllabus and doesn't use email. It was totally unorganized and he is impossible to get a hold of.

Comment:

Williams needs to retire. DO NOT take his class. He was funny at first, which made the class think he was going to be really chill and fun but he turned out to be a nightmare. He is SO disorganized, never returns emails, shows up to class late (one time, and this was a hour and half long class, he showed up a hour and 10 minutes late to class)

Comment:

Williams is funny! he's pretty old and he'll talk about sex too openly. there's definitely laughing in class. you just have to read the textbook and his tests are awesome because you can make your own questions (aka DO IT and youll do great!) he did called me a "retard" in front of the whole class though because i said one word during his lecture

Comment:

You must know a lot about psychology before taking this class or you will fail. He is nice and knows a lot on the topic but he will not help you so don't ask. He is pretty understanding and inspiring. Work Hard and you might get a good grade but if you don't study there is no way you will pass. I like him a lot as a person though.

This guy has no concept of how to teach. He's boring and pulls his questions on tests out of nowhere. Avoid taking his classes if possible.

Comment:

Do. Not. Take. Him. no joke none of the stuff on the test is in the book or notes. and when you call him on it he says "too bad." it is too much work and not worth it. the only catch is he gives a ton of extra credit. please get out it if you are planning to take him.

Comment:

He is the only class I have taken and studied like mad and gotten a B. I am a good student, went to the majority of classes, did the assignments, and got higher grades that the majority of the class, but somehow got a B in the class? Unless you are his favorite, he does not help you or show interest in letting you get an A in his class. DO NOT TAKE

He is really funny, and he always lets class out at least an hour early. He sucks as a teacher though he has given our class the same lecture for the past 3 weeks. He is getting too old to teach, and you can tell he is not passionate about it.

Comment:

I had him for Psych 101, and he's an okay guy, but prepare to be offended in his class. You have to teach the material to yourself, and you might as well not pay attention in class, because nothing he says is on the test. Oh, and almost the entire class fails the tests.

Comment:

He's not a bad guy or a bad teacher. If you're looking for an easy grade don't take him but I like him and his way of teaching. He's honest and up front if you don't like him, it's because you're a big baby looking for someone else to do the work for you. Grow up this is the real world!!

DO NOT TAKE HIM. Our whole class failed TWO tests in a row. He is the worst teacher ever. My classmates and I had to go to the head of hte school and dean of academics to do something about this teacher but NOTHING WAS done. He makes up this test questions in his head!

Horrible! The class is incredibly difficult and he expects you to spend 9 hours a week studying for it. The tests are crazy tough and he is no help. He lectures all class and will definately put you to sleep. Don't take this class if you can help it!

Don't take his class- his lectures are boring and tests are way too difficult! The best grade you can get in his tests would be a C.

always a pleasure to leave his class. Material is easy, material through williams difficult, only knows psychology a tangent into any other subject during class is marked by an unusual lack of knowledge. Has good intentions(I believe), but is unable to come through, overall a terrible teacher.

Comment:

I agree... do not take him for general psych if you plan on being a psych major. I learned nothing in his class, which only made me have to play major catch-up in all of my following psych classes.
