Dry sense of humor but interesting lectures. Super easy exams, the final was just a retake. Great psych class, many will be sad to see him leave.

Comment:

This teacher is extremely easy because he will help you succeed in any way. You don't get something, he will walk you through the problem until it is "solved." Attendance is "never" taken in his class because you just want to go. There are times that other students will just go in to listen to his lecture and not even be apart of it.

I had Torello for several classes at Cap and he is one of the best. His teaching style helped me a lot in my field, many things I'm not sure I would have understood/remembered. He changed me as a student and everyone should take a class with him. Take notes, read the book and ask questions, enjoy!

Comment:

Dr. Torello will fuel your interest in psych. He is incredibly intelligent, hilarious, and inspiring. You won't want to miss a lecture. Also, go to his REVIEW DAYS because he tells you EVERYTHING you need to know. Seriously. And visit his office sometime, because he's great to talk to. He's my adviser, couldn't be happier.

Best professor I've ever had! I took behavioral neuroscience with him (a class I was sure that I wouldn't like) and ended up skipping zero class (it started at 8:30 am). I am going to take drug and behavior with him next semester. He is awesome!!!

Comment:

I had him a few quarters ago but it needs to be said that if you have the chance to take his class, do it. Not only is he outrageously intelligent, hes the funniest person I have ever heard. He used to stalk around the room like a velociraptor and has these crazy voices he uses when he's creating an example situation. Take notes, study, laugh.

Comment:

Dr Torello was so funny. Taking notes in his class was fun because you could write what he said and remember it later. But seriously, Dr Torello is amazing. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone for whatever class he is teaching. It doesn't even matter. You won't skip that class, I can assure you.

Torello is a great guy! He knows his stuff, too! He is a funny guy that makes learning easy and fun. He's slightly inappropriate but he's easy to connect to as a college student. I took classes I really didn't want to just because he was teaching them.

Dr. Torello made my experience as an undergraduate student enjoyable.He was also my academic advisor and I could not have asked for anyone better.He was always available,sometimes even at a moment's notice,to help with anything I needed.His passion for psychology and neuroscience is infectious...one of the best professors in the country.

Comment:

Dr. Torello, is by far my most favorite teacher thus far. I'm writing this 2 years post grad, and still think about how wacky and strange he is, yet developed my love for Neuroscience. I wish anyone who reads this to take his class. I'd retake his class in a heartbeat.

He's is the most helpful professor I've had thus far, in and out of the class. He has helped me with classes outside of his own and does not have much work required for the class. I enjoyed his strange demenor and over all, he makes even boring psychology entertaining!

Comment:

Psych is my favorite class because he's hilarious and the information he says sticks. Attendance isn't mandatory but it's the only class I haven't skipped. He makes the info interesting, and although he's really weird it's funny.
