This professor was okay. She herself was very kind and caring. The class was interesting. My only issue with it was you were expected to memorize an unreasonable about for the tests and she grades open ended questions vary harshly. However, She does offer LOTS of extra credit.

Dr,LaMastro is the best professor I have EVER had. She really made an impact wasn't easy to do considering I took her online. She provides great feedback, and truly cares for her students.

Comment:

Dr. Lamastro is easily one of the best Psych professors here at Rowan! I had her for Field Experience, so I can't say much about her tests and lectures, but I can say she is great at communicating, actually pretty nice and fun to talk to, and will go out of her way to make sure you get a placement. I am so taking this class again next semester!

Dr. LaMastro is awesome!!! If you participate in her class and show interest she will be willing to help no matter what. She responds to emails very frequently unless it is around the time everyone is signing up for their internships. I would recommend taking her class.

Comment:

Dr. LaMastro is a great professor and person. I enjoyed her class a lot! I now know what fields of psychology peak my interest! The class itself isn't too difficult (one midterm, one final, three reaction papers, and a resume/ personal statement). Also, she is really great at helping students find internships. Highly recommend!

She tells it like it is! She also helps you find internships, gives 2 exams (mid/final-multiple choice & a couple essays, simple), some reaction papers (simple), & she really cares about making lectures interesting to you by sharing stories & allowing others to contribute. I would take her again. I deff recommend.

Really nice lady. Says funny things during class. Calls class off A LOT. Listen to her in class and take notes and you'll be set for the exams. If you do that the class will be a breeze. Not much work required.

To reiterate what everyone else has said: yeah, she's really down to earth and personable. Her classes are easy, but you gotta be able to put up with CONSTANT class discussion. most class periods feel like an hour and fifteen minute long conversation. you won't learn that much, but you will do well and have a good time.

Good teacher I guess. Basically a discussion class. The only issue is her arrogance gets annoying. She holds herself on a very high pedestal because of her Ph.D. But other than that, very easy class!
