Comment:

Professor Vielbig just talks the whole class and everything is related to his life. It's kind of boring how he teach. BUT, he provides study guides for every exam that you can print out and !!!STUDY!!!!! those exams aren't easy. if you're good with your grade you decide if you want to take the final. :)

Make sure you attend class everyday and pay attention to his lectures. There is no homework, but you really have to study and make sure you're prepared for the exams. Your grade is only based on your exams so do well on them!! Book is required. His lectures are funny and he's a great teacher. You'll learn a lot. Definitely recommend!

Love the stories he relates to the material. He adds study guides that are exactly like the test at the beginning of the semester so if you study it then you should be fine. Six absences are given.

He's not the friendliest person to talk to but his class isn't hard and his lectures are funny. So, as long as you study, really study, you'll be fine. He does provides study guides for every test at the beginning of the semester, so take advantage of that head start.

One of the funniest professors at AWC. Be prepared to be put on the spot ever once in awhile. Your grade is based off of 4 test's so make sure you study. Doing bad on one of them pretty much seals your grade in.

I regret taking this class. If you're the type of student like me that likes teachers to dedicate time to students and feel comfortable to ask questions don't take this class! All he does is talk about life experiences, I had never dropped a class and sadly this was my first class I dropped.

Dr. Vielbig was great! I took his 4-week PSY 101 online course and learned an immense amount of information. He does not lecture, but provides you with powerpoints and reading from the textbook. YOU MUST READ. I got a 98% in the class. 4 exams (1 per week). No homework or assignments. I recommend Dr. Vielbig for any PSY class!

The worst professor ever. I am student from another country, but like this bed professor I never see in my life. One class wasn't about what we study only was about his life with stories what are not impossible. He grade very hard and bad! DON'T TAKE HIS CLASS!!!

He is so terrible teacher, he talks too much about his life stories. The class is boring and he's not focused on the chapters. He grade exams awful and doesn't have understanding for students. I am disappointed.

Super easy class. No homework assigned for Psychology 101, just four major tests that are worth 25% of your grade each. The tests contain multiple choice, and essay questions, and he gives you the essay questions in advance. Hilarious lectures, and allows 6 total absences throughout the semester. Highly recommend.

He is such a terrible teacher It's such of waste being in his class, for the first few minutes of class time he would barely talk about this weeks chapter then go on about telling a life story I'm not there to learn about him I was there to Learn about psychology

Comment:

This professor is by far the worst one I have ever had at AWC. Nothing outdoes the disrespect and inconsiderate ways of Vielbig. Anytime I asked him a question he always belittled me and only talks about his "life stories". Which most of them sound made up anyways. Get ready to study on your own. You have 4 exams and it's easy but he's a pain..

I took his online class, we had only 4 exams as well. Unfortunately, I found his class very difficult because he did not give clear instructions and when writing him an email to clarify, he would write me back talking to me like I was dumb. Questions remained unanswered. Classmates felt the same way! Not a good online teacher, would not do it again

Loved this class! His lectures are all stories which is very useful for exams because you can use them in the example portion. Write the most important things in class but listen to his lectures! The study guide IS the first portion of the test so if you do good in the written part & bomb the multiple choice you can still pass the class. Good luck!

Not a teacher. More like "story time" with Vielbig. You'll have a better time reading your text book than listening to him.

He is so much fun in class. Gives a list of all essay questions for exams on BB so you know exactly what to study, sometimes goes a bit overboard on his lectures but overall a great prof.

Comment:

He's mean cuz he didn't really help me out when trying to choose a topic for a paper we had to write. He just kept saying no to all my topics and made me feel dumb instead of explaining things to me and help me out. He talks about non related topics in class. I got to the point I preferred not to attend cuz it was pointless; Very Difficult course
