Comment:

She was the worst professor I have ever had at FIU. All she did was talk about her family. She taught NOTHING at all. I don't think the topic of discussion even came up!

Comment:

Incredible person, very sad and wrong that she is gone. Challenging and enlightening. REAL thinking and REAL learning. If you are smart, you will see that her stories are very applicable to real life. If you want to memorize terms and take multiple choice exams, take an average professor, they're a dime a dozen.

If you're expecting this to be like her other classes, you're wrong. There is more work involved since its the senior lab, but very easy to keep up with. Awesome lady. Great stories.

She's Easy As Hell But I Didn't Learn A Thing About What I Was Suppose To Learn From The Class.. All She Does Is Talk About Personal Experiences. If You Actually Want To Learn.. Take Someone Else!

Comment:

I'm so sad that she has been fired by the Psych Dept. Amazing teacher! She actually made you learn and work hard, although she wasn't a tough grader. She let you do things over when you messed up; the way real teaching should be! Not just academics, but real life concerns that sometimes matter more for your life/career than what you get in school.

Super informative and helpful. My first and favorite teacher at FIU. I'd love to take another class with her. Plus she made this class seem even more interesting.

Comment:

I have never had such simpler assignments in all the time I've been at FIU. In a way she's an unconventional teacher because she doesn't really teach with textbooks, she just wings it and teaches us what we should know. Highly recommended!

Comment:

Best psych professor ever! She's cool and full of weird and interesting stories, but she sometimes has a tendency to go off track... Not a class for someone who wants to learn from a textbook. She's always willing to answer your questions.

nice lady & very slack; interesing to listen to lecture! Plus: Papers are only a page long typed & if can't meet the due dates, she lets you turn in all assignments the last day of class before finals week & midterm & final are take-home exams!

Comment:

No one should go through FIU Psychology without taking one of her classes. She's amazing. Really gives you perspective on all the crap you learn in other classes.
