Dr. Rodriguez is so fun! I really loved her class and lectures. Tests are easy if you read the chapters. Watch the show "In Treatment" and you'll do fine on the exam, it is easy. You'll learn a lot from her. She really helped us completing this course successfully in this global pandemic. Take her, you won't regret!!

Her class was great!!! I took her for clinical psych. Literally all you need to do is study the power points, and go to class. Her lectures are NEVER boring either. She implements her actual experience into the lecture to give students a better understanding. I honestly learned a lot, I wish more professors were like her.

Tests and quizzes every week but quizzes are online and open book. Tests are short and on each chapter so everything is divided well. Only issue is attendance is required but all she talked about in class was her personal experience in the field so dont take if you cant learn the material on your own

Terrible class. Seems like her quizzes test only our test-taking abilities, not on actual content. I've caught a couple mistakes on her quizzes, then confronted her about it, and she gave no feedback. Makes me question every one of her exams and how accurate they are according to the text/ppts she AND her TA swear by. Gave unhelpful study tips

She is my favorite professor so far. I love this clinical psych class. She makes it so interesting and gives a realistic point of view about each topic. She explains everything in detail, she loves to answer questions. 1 online and 1 in class weekly tests based on the lecture and textbook MANDATORY.

I took her class online and she has a TA who does everything. The frustrating thing about this course was that both SHE and her TA don't reply to emails or anything so you're left lost. The whole class is quizzes only. You're paying for a class to teach yourself. She doesn't provide answers to the quizzes so you don't know if youre right or not.

Incredibly wise and smart woman , I used to tell her that she was my idol and indeed she was such a big inspiration for me during that particular semester. Doctor Rodriguez is brilliant , you really learn a lot from her. But make sure you do your work, she doesn't mess around. In short, she is the best professor I have had at Montclair so far.

This Professor changed my life. She doesn't teach from the book much, but lectures about real life lessons about being a psychologist. She has in class exams every week and online (not timed) exams every week. She cancels class a lot. I LOVE her and even go to her office hours just to talk, she is cool and kind.

Intimidating. will definitely call you out in front of a class if you are slacking or not paying attention or didn't do your homework. She does not mess around, but her lectures are more than interesting and her humor makes everything more enjoyable. Work is not hard. Also, do NOT bring a visitor to this class unless you ask.

Comment:

This is possibly one of the worst professors I've ever had. I am never the one to lambast a professor over challenging course material (this is college) but Rodriguez is the most unfair, pretentious, narcissistic hypocrite I have ever encountered. She doesn't teach material, loves to talk about herself and is extremely rude to everyone!!!

Very passionate about the subject and very knowledgeable, and cares about her students. Gives a test every week for every chapter, but as long as you read the book and pay attention in class you'll get a good grade. Would definitely take her again!

Don't take her. Talks to much off topic. Tests are harder than how she lectures. Very opinionated about topics outside the subject. Rants. sometimes she is funny. Hard to learn from. its like learning from a bragger. Very high and mighty.

Dr Rodriguez has been the best prof. I've had in Montclair. She's amazing, and truly knows what she is talking about. You have to go to class, she takes attendance seriously, but she's understanding so if you tell her why you missed she'll let it slide. She gives a chapter MC exam every week, so make sure to have read the assigned chapter. Love her

I had Prof. Rodriguez this pass fall 16, wonderful teacher full of knowledge she can read you the moment she sees so don't try to get cute with her it's not what you want. She is a stickler for having your name tag present on the desk top and Please don't be late!!! Even if she is, make sure you read all material & study and pay attention !!!

Had her for both psych of women and clinical. The class is super easy if you read whatever chapter the exam is on, and follow the study guide. She preaches about being on time, but is never on time herself. She also doesn't show up a lot. Most of the time the TA did everything and when she does show up, she just talks about herself... easy A though

Love her class. Exams are 85% of grade. But she tells you before hand what is going to be on it. Offers extra credit for the Albert Ellis. And drops lowest grade. What more can you ask for.
