Comment:

This professor is a lot of fun - with all the singing, etc. He uses all kinds of methods to make students understand the material. He is very helpful to students. Despite my ADD, I am able to focus on his lectures and take notes. Hence, he is clear. I learned a whole lot from taking his PSY220 course.

Comment:

I was so excited for this class but it was an extreme disappointment. Loved the topic & book but found Goldberg utterly disorganized & unhelpful. For easy material, his tests did NOT reflect your knowledge. The worst part though was that he really thinks he is a great lecturer and is always saying how great he is - but he was horrible!

Comment:

Goldberg is the worst teacher ive had after 3 years at uoft. Avoid taking ANY courses with him, his tests and lectures are completely irrelevant to his ridiculous lectures and the marking is worse than psy100.

His class wa lots of fun. Humble and easy going. Nice guy. Not pretentious at all. The material was interesting and the tests were fair. So what if he's not a well organised perfectionist?

Comment:

He is HORRIBLE. He can't explain, he can't teach at all. He tries to be funny, which doesn't work out that well because he is NOT. In one short word, DISORGANISED!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment:

Very disorganized but this class wasn't hard to follow on your own. Read the textbook! It was a self-explanitory book. He's just a goofy guy. And the tests were ok, mostly M/C with 1 or 2 long answer not worth that much. The best is when he sings! The Extra credit assignment is a bonus too!

Comment:

Very disorganized, unclear, reads off notes from years ago and forgets what is on them. Tests are unclear also, just like him. Marks did not show knowledge of the course material. Everything was boring and confusing. Never again would I take his course.

Comment:

He was alright. I didn't really enjoy going to his lectures because he did sometimes go off on a tangent. Even though the tests seemed easy, I got a crappy mark.

Comment:

The man is sooo disorganized in lecture. Probably a nice man, but a terrible and annoying lecturer. He reads his lectures from a sheet and still seems to not know what he's talking about. The worst part is that he actually thinks he is a good lecturer.

Comment:

He's okay. Not very bad, but not very good either. He doesn't explain things well. I found his lectures some what boring in this interesting social psy field. He gives out way too many theroies during lectures without solid examples. OK course, ok prof.
