Prof doesnt teach from book. All course work is through lecture. Lectures are fine but prof doesnt have time to explain at end of class. So try to catch up with her when you can. Shes alright except for those faults. Gives extra credit but if you dont do well on her test you dont pass. And she will tell you that dont ask for extra points.

Professor Amy was great! She is kind and caring and makes the class very interesting! She is also very funny and I just love her. This was an emotional intelligence class and she really made me feel comfortable in the class and forced me to participate in group discussions. Loved her and that's why I am taking more classes with her!!!

Amy is what other teachers should strive to be. She made the most complex topics digestible for everyone without losing important details and applications. Amy made learning the material fun and easy and bio psych is not an easy subject. Take her for every class you can, she's one of the best ones.

Amy is an amazing person. She teaches you life lessons and not straight from the book. She teaches you parts of the book which she feels will be useful in life. That being said, do not buy the book. It's unnecessary and a waste of money.

She is a really great teacher. Her lectures were not boring at all. We had online quizzes online every week or so but it was not hard. We had about 3-4 tests not sure but fairly easy. Her final was cumulative, so always study the material. Honestly, the book was the not really needed. I bought it and did not use it. I highly recommend her.

I enjoyed taking this class. The tests are easy as long as you do the reading and listen to her lectures. One downfall is that her lectures are ridiculously long sometimes but thankfully she makes the topic very interesting. She's a great professor. I would recommend her for sure.

You will be graded based on your test score because she doesn't give any other type of assignment. To prepare for the weekly tests, you will have to read the entire chapter without a study guide because she doesn't give that either. TBH just take a different professor, she makes the class harder than it is.

I enjoyed the lectures and I learned a lot. But, she creates her own test and quizzes so questions come out to distort and not inclusive of word-for-word facts you learn from the lectures or class book. You can learn facts but the quizzes and exams are more based on what she has explained on the topic. I had her twice already and for diff. subjects

BEWARE! I had to report this professor! She non stop talks about su!cide, s3x, and contraception. She will call on you in class and only ask female students why they broke up with their boyfriend. She will assume gender, sexuality, and discuss it. Most of her knowledge is also wrong! Even her lectures on Freud! Which should be easy!
