Comment:

Not only did I hate the material but the professor was sooooo incredibly boring, good god! And his "ABSOLUTELY NO EXTRA CREDIT" remark on his syllabus means just that. I was at 89.45% (0.55% from an A!) And he wouldn't give it to me, shouting at me DURING THE MIDDLE OF HIS FINAL a reference to that very notice within his syllabus.

This is a clear professor. Always says that his class is an easy A, and it really is. i took his class T and Thursdays and one day was doing work (copied section from the book), and the other was taking notes( which where really specific and short) You only use the notes for the exams nothing else.Take him if you want an easy A and not do much work

Awesome teacher! Has jokes. light notes, and easy tests if you study. I broke up with one of my long term bf's from what I learned from him & it was a great move. I learned a lot, I loved his class, & def recommend him to anyone!

this is a great professor. Attendance is not mandatory. all you have to do is come to class copy your notes and thats it.only 3 tests and he dosent make you do any public speaking or class participation. this class is basically an easy A. And everytime you leave the class you have a much better understanding of why you think the way you do and life

Comment:

This professor is horrible he doesn?t care about you learning he just cares about leaving and finishing the class. There?s 3 test and they have nothing to do with the notes he gives. He is lazy and doesn?t do his work. He curses and tells you he doesn?t give a crap if you pass or not. If you want to pass this classes DON?T TAKE HIM!

Comment:

Teacher is terrible. First he spends his time talking about sex stories instead of talking about psychology. The only connection to psychology in this class is through the text book. Otherwise don't expect to learn any psychology from his teachings.

Comment:

You really do learn in this class, it helps that he makes the atmosphere light, always cracking jokes. Doing the assignments and studying lightly should ensure you a pretty good grade, but actually study. The only thing I don't like is that he makes you feel dumb about the questions you ask so expect a pompous answer from him.

Comment:

If you're looking to actually learn something related to psychology, you'll have to learn to depend on the book or find another teacher. Otherwise this class is an easy A. All of the assignments were questions from the book and if you finished it in class you were free from hw. His lectures veered off-topic but are essential for the exams.

This is a great professor. He makes sure that everyone understands the lessons that are being covered.Before the exams, we review everything that it has been covered for that particular section. Everything that is on the notes that from MWF are what is in the exams. On Fridays assignments that cover 25% of grade.Great!!

Man this prof is craaaazzzyyy! But he kept the class interesting. Like everyone knows he is very loquacious! Funny @ times but cusses a lot which got quite annoying for me. Easy work, be in class cuz each paper counts and need ur notes for the tests big time. Good luck!

Comment:

I don't like him. He doesn't seem to care at all, and there were a lot of things in the test that he didn't go over. Plus, when you ask him a question he gets too excited and he seems like he's screaming at you.

Comment:

Really easy...he does talk about so many things that are way off subject but interesting and you still learn. Just make sure to go to class every Friday for the class work which isn’t hard at all. The test aren’t bad just look over your notes and you should be okay. Overall I certainly recommend this professor.

Been a full time student and a full time employee, this teacher is heaven. He is very direct, no BS, you come do your work & your set, easy going, not so much homework and is willing to work with you as long as you communicate things in time. I requested to take my final test earlier becuase I had already some vacation planned and he work with me.

He only takes attendance when you turn in the classwork which is only one time every week. I got a B for his class and so did 7 other friends of mine, another friend got an A and another a C. I got a C for every test and I skipped all the classes for my last test. Then again, when i did study for my 2nd test i got a C. There are only 3 tests.
