Comment:
Ok, so this guy is really sweet and nice. However, he was the most boring professor I've ever had. I could NOT focus to save my life. It was a struggle everyday. The content of the class is super easy, but paying attention to his monotonous voice was torture. I ended up getting a B+ because I couldn't pay attention. Take the class, not with him.

Nice guy, means well, but cant teach for his life. Hes like a sweet grandpa, just too old to connect to students anymore. First day of class, I swear he was trying to lull me to sleep. Lectures are terribly boring, where I never went to class. Just read the book and youll do fine

Awful professor. Nice guy, but can't explain anything to save his life. Lectures are painfully boring and attendance is taken at every class. No powerpoints. Homework assignments and quiz questions are unclear and ambiguous, although you do get second chances at homework and he will give credit for "wrong" answers if you can argue your point.

Really nice guy. Lectures are SO boring and hard to follow. He doesn't explain things well at all. There's no final though; just a final paper. He doesn't put much emphasis on the final paper even though it's worth a majority of our grade. He has a weird obsession with birds too. the TA was crucial to the success in the class.

like everyone else said, nice guy but his lectures are hard to follow. study guides are helpful, but whatever he puts on the study guides you need to know EVERYTHING about. the book isn't necessary, especially if you are a psych major. the powerpoints are very helpful but i wish they were posted by the TA before class so i could take notes on them.

I agree w/the rest of the students, nice guy but has difficulty getting his ideas across to the class. The classes are painful to sit through (which you have to because they take attendance) but if you study the powerpoints the TA sends you, you'll do fine.

He's extremely nice and knows what he's talking about but is terrible at explaining things and being clear. Without the TA I would've been completely lost in the class and not known what were going to be on the tests.

Nice guy. Long winded. The TA was great and helped a ton. He takes attendance which sucks but it's easy to not pay attention. First 1/2 of the semester is confusing but eventually it all falls into place.

The man knows his material and is a fairly easy grader. But his classes are very drawn out and boring and he DOES take attendence.
