Pretty easy class, not interesting at all, flip n flocks all the time with boring stories. Not easy with communicating on missed notes. It's and ok class but reading and self reliance is a must.

Comment:

A fairly intelligent, not overly intellectual guy who takes psychology and presents to people in a way that it is clearly understandable. Topics are interesting and useful in daily life, and the discussions are only as intriguing as the people in the class. Good professor overall!

Comment:

Overall his teaching is good. You will learn a lot in this class but you do have to put forth effort and participate in the class. But if you do that and study hard for the exams you will do fine. He has good stories but swears a lot. I would recommend his class. He is a nice guy but you better be in class.

Comment:

This teacher has pissed me off since day one. He is not professional at all, and is an idiot. He does not truly care about any of the students. I have never been so bored in a class in my life and would never recommend him to anyone.

Comment:

I love this guy! What you see is what you get. He doesn't have to like you, and doesn't care if you like him. He is there to teach, and he does it WELL. He uses personal experiences and brings outside information to reiterate his point. His expectations are laid out in his syllabus;abide by them, attend class, pay attention and you'll do fine.

Comment:

Comes across hard during beginning of semester to weed out students who aren't gonna try. He is a pretty good guy though, and uses life stories to relate to the current topic of study. Funny, but at times distateful. You get what you put into it. I wouldn't take a psychology class at Kish unless he was teaching it.

I've taken 102, 256, and 286 with him. You really either love him or hate him. I thought he was awesome.

I've taken two classes with George and I have to say that he is one of my favorite teachers at Kish. As long as you do the objectives and attend class it is easy to do well in his classes.

HE is a good teacher that wants you to walk away at the end of semester knowing more than you did walking in at the beginning.

Comment:

Like others have said, he comes off as a hard ass in the start, and his teaching style isn't for everyone, but it was for me. One of the few classes that i truely took more away from than what was taught. great teacher if he fits your style

Make class very enjoyable. Comes off real tough and is scrict but in the end you learn what is he has done and it is brilliant. He loves his daughter very much and is really a warm man. He turned me onto thestudy of psychology.
