He is very helpful and nice to boot. He was always smiling and answered all questions. He really made you think about different views and brought the material to life. I recomend him to anyone who has no experiance in psychology.
Although open book test, must of the credits goes to paper
easy and lay back teacher
Bruce is really helpful and nice. His lectures are funny and the tests are really easy, they're open book. He is a wonderful and knowledgable teacher!
BRUCE ROCKS, HE READS TO YOU AND EXPLAINS EVERYTHING, HE IS A SWEET LIGHT HEARTED MAN, AND IS ABLE TO RELATE TO THE STUDENTS AND JOKE WITH THEM. TESTS ARE OPEN BOOK. LOTS OF GROUP EXTRA CREDIT AND CLASS PARTICIPATION. I LOOK FORWARD TO THIS CLASS EVERY WEEK! THIS CLASS IS AN EASY A. AND YOU WALK AWAY SMARTER EVERY CLASS!
he is such an amazing teacher. He learns your name and uses it everytime you walk in the classroom. his lectures bring real life siuations into them and the tests are easy. The paper is really fun to write because you get to apply psychology to your life. I would strongly reccomend this teacher to anyone!
He was a really nice teacher there are quizzes and some papers but he helps you whenever you ask for it. Funny and understanding guy.
I absolutely loved taking this class. He is so kind hearted and will answer any questions you have. The class consists of a 2 point quiz, weekly quizzes and a paper. Although the quizzes are open book, most of the points go to the paper so you would have to work hard in that. Overall, I loved his class and wouldn't mind taking it again.
Very nice person. His lectures were enjoyable and entertaining. I recommend this class. Class is based off a point system. Come to each class and earn your grade. Textbook is used.
great lecturer. you take open test, then review chapter for next lesson. he reviews chapter page by page, makes connection, uses humor. pay attention, review chapter, easy A
This guy is amazing! super fun! each class he asks a question about the previous lesson as soon as class starts, so be on time. After that he gives a 20 question chapter quiz (OPEN BOOK/NOTES), and then you grade the quizes as a class(so you know what you got) and then he goes over the next chapter. you get one break & can leave, but its on you.
Awesome teacher! He is hilarious, super nice, and really relatable. He learns EVERYBODY's name and is very helpful. Get the book. Show up to class and get points, 20 question open book quiz, and then a lecture. No midterm or final, but you do have to write a paper - about yourself. If you need psyc, TAKE HIM. Love him.
good teacher
Absolutely amazing teacher. Definitely worth taking this mans class. Even if you aren't serious about psychology he always makes the class interesting and he makes sure everyone understands. Plus the tests are open book! He will encourage you to speak up in class and he shows a few videos. Probably the best psychology teacher at AVC. :)
Coolest teacher ever, very passionated about psychology. Easy A. But beware of the essay asigment if you miss it you are doomed.
OMG, I Love Bruce. He is such a Great guy and so easy to talk to. He makes the class fun and makes everyone laugh. He is such a Great Guy and really loves what he teaches, which makes you love the class. Amazing teacher. BRUCE ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bruce is awesome and the class is an easy A! ALL tests are open book and open notes. He goes through the entire chaapter prior to the tests. He loves to joke around and he is VERY friendly. He always has a smile on his face and is very open-minded. There is NO MIDTERM OR FINAL! He only makes us write the paper because it is a California Standard!!!
This is a wonderful teacher he is very nice and friendly. He likes to make jokes and smile which is a plus. His quizzes are all open book and 1 paper. It is impossible to get anything less than an "a". He also gives you questions at the beginning of class 4 points so dont be late/absent!Awesome class/teacher. recommend it to everybody!!!
...Is not hard. But just not fun or exciting.
Bruce is just awsome. Has a daily question that he asks right when the class starts so dont be late. Weekly tests which are easy. Reads from book 90% of the time during class but makes it fun. Easy A. 1 Term paper which is easy. I got it done the 2nd week of class and had it turned in on the 3rd week.
Bruce is a very nice teacher. He lays out what he expects you to do from the beginning. Everything is a point system. You have to do good on the tests, you have to be ontime to get points and you have to pass the daily question. He doesn't give you any slack at all. It all points and you get what you get. You have to work for the grade!!!!!!!!!
Super Teacher and Super Man
I really liked him, he was funny and crazy! I never missed one of his classes because it was so exciting for me. His class is VERY easy. Only one essay its pretty easy, but it counts for like more then half your grade.
This is as easy as a psychology class can get. There are no tests. You will have a 30 minute multiple choice open book quiz every day, and that's 60% of your grade. The other 40% is an APA format paper but it's about your life so it took me maybe an hour to write. The guy himself is very full of himself, but ignore it and this is the easiest class.
easy class i got a B i could have done better but oh well, there is one paper and open book test on every chapter.He is a nice man and i like his teaching methods he really likes to get his students involved :D
Loved this class, interesting and funny. Wish all my classes could be like this one!!
Easy teacher with a sense of humor. My only complaint is that he gave me a B when I got an A on every single assignment. Hmmmmm.
This guy is damn hottt
TERRIFIC!
Great guy
Bruce is a very talkative person, he can be funny, there is tests but you use youre notes, No midterm, No final, just a 9 page paper about yourself which is rather easy. I recommend him :)
Great professor loves to keep the students interested. NO final, or mid term. Just all Quizzes and one paper. He's the easiest teacher ever and a great one!
no final no midterm quizzes every class and there open book but they are not that easy and can be tricky i thought he was kinda weird but overall nice guy who will help you
Great professor! Open book, multiple choice quiz on every chapter, one 9 page paper on yourself, and always a 1 question of the day worth points at the beginning of class. No final or midterm. He's pretty funny and will keep you awake. I got a c but i barely studied, so I could have done better! I'd recommend him!
Bruce.. words can not do this man justice. He is engaging and unafraid to ruffle feathers.. I loved this class, it was my treat for the week.. and, quite frankly, I'm amazed that people couldn't get A's in this class... OPEN BOOK & NOTES, people.. :) k?
I loved this class! I highly recommend him! He always had the class interested in the lecture. He's a funny teacher and gives everyone the attention they need. The tests were all open book but that doesn't mean the tests were always easy. You do have to somewhat study.
Very good teacher! Lectures are always interesting and engaging, open book tests, and no final or midterm! Attendance is required in his class. There's a 9 page essay due near the end of the semester, but he lets you know about that the first day of class, so there's plenty of time to do it. Definitely recommend this teacher.
the best psych teacher at av. open book tests that are easy as long as u study. he is engaging, has great lectures and keeps the class laughing. take this guy if u need psych 101
Amazing instructor! Keeps the class involved in his instruction. No midterm or final with only one paper about yourself and how what you learned in his class applies to you. Weekly open book quiz that if you don't at least read the chapter you will not do well on. Take him if you can, you won't regret it!
GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR, WHICH HELPS LEARNING THE MATERIAL WAYYYY EASIER.COMPARED TO ALL OF MY TEACHERS HE WAS AND IS THE BEST. GREATTTTTTT SENSE OF HUMOR LOL, REALLY COOL, NICE AND EASY TO COMPREHEND.TAKE HIM I PROMISE YU WONT REGRET IT :)
I really enjoyed going to Mr. Bruce's class. He made learning more enjoyable with his silly stories (pertaining to the classroom topic) and animated humor. He made my night class something to look forward to. His tests were pretty easy as well as his research paper. He was very clear and understanding. If you have to take pysch 101, take Bruce S.!
TAKE THIS CLASS. He is a great teacher. He's really knowledgeable and his stories make the class really fun and interesting. He doesn't assign a lot of work, and his weekly quizzes are super easy, since you can use notes and the textbook.
He is the best Psychology teacher that a student can have. His test are straight from his notes and the book, which he lets you use during the test. There is a paper that has to be done, but it is simple. I say take him, he is an easy A.
Mr. Bruce, great teacher!!! very healpfu, very funny, and his lectures are interesting, clear, and funny. He will keep you enetertain with his lectures. You need the book for the daily quizes. You have a question of the day so kind need to pay attention in lectures because on those ones you cant use the books or notes. TAKE HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Super Easy. He is not hard what so ever. lets you have an open book test. If you miss the test, he will let you take home the test. His lectures are easy to follow. Gets the class to be very open with each other. The class can communicate personal stories towards the lecture of the day and it really helps as far as understanding the subject.
SO easy!! It is impossible to not get an A. All the quizzes are open note and book! Schribfeder is SUPER funny and makes his lecture interesting! Never a dull moment in his class and you will learn a lot about yourself!
This guy is a total comedian! Fun class he makes psychology a blast. Believe it or not most say his class is easy, I would say least stressful instead! Even with open book some ppl manage to not do the best so pay attention to the lecture.
The best Psych teacher. He's very passionate about his work. He makes his lectures fun and interesting. Tests are easy, no homework and a 9pg essay due for this class. I would highly recommend Bruce to anyone.
Good teacher if you have the book or take good notices you'll get an A on every test since the test are open book/notes ... he's nice and funny would definitely take again
Love his class, I've learned so much. He was so funny. Enjoyed going to class Quizzes like every other week but super easy, you can use notes and it's open book. Would highly recommend!!!
Prof Bruce is seriously one of the best. He's super funny & he's a sweet little guy. Enjoys his class & made it so simple to follow along with lecture and my grade. Super chill just review notes before a short quiz every week. Open book and notes. Just one paper that was simple and pretty easy actually enjoyed. Take this class foreal he's so dope
I loved his class. He made every lecture enjoyable he's so funny. he reminds me of your typical grandpa that everyone loves to visit lol. His lectures are powerpoint. No homework, open book and not tests, sometimes even take home tests, question of the day in the beginning of class as extra credit towards your grade and an easy paper. RECOMMEND!!
GREAT sense of humor and enthusiasm, he knows how to keep the class awake and entertained. Quizzes are easy if you actually prepare for them and take the class seriously. You'll also learned many things you didn't know about yourself. Take this class if you must take Psychology or need a great time during a semester.
I HIGHLY recommend Professor Schreibfeder. I took his psych101 class over summer. You only have one essay, NO final, NO homework, and quizzes on every chapter that are open book and open note. He is VERY sarcastic and likes to joke. He enjoys participation, so if you take his class don't hesitate to participate. I'm very glad I took his class.
Awesome teacher! No homework, no mid terms or final. 1 apa format paper due and all quizzes are open note/open book. I would take him again.
Easy A and loved his lectures. You have 1 apa paper and chapter take-home quizzes. I recommend renting the book if you want to fly through without too much effort. Definitely would take again!
Very easy and interesting class. All you have to do is take notes from the powerpoint lecture and then he'll give you a take home test at the end of every week. His tests are not hard if you take notes. He will interact with the class by asking questions and sometimes tell stories. He also has an extra credit question every day if you're on time.

Mr. Schreibfeder is funny and his class is easy to pass. I personally love psychology so I was able to learn quite a bit from his class but if I didn't like it I probably wouldn't have learned anything because all the quizzes were open book and open note. No studying is necessary for this class. Lots of quizzes and one paper.
Schreibfeder is the easiest teacher ever. No final or midterm. All quizzes are take home. He calls out answers as you guys grade, so just get an extra sheet and copy all the right answers and turn that one in. Only thing is the 9 page paper he gives nearly the whole semester to do. Majority of class did it last minute and still did well. Cant fail
His lectures are very memorable, I was able to learn Psychology easily and relate to his lectures. He's a funny guy, just have to respect him and you'll be fine. He gives take home tests and those tests really help you out in remembering what you learned. He offers extra credit every time you are on time too, so that's a plus.
He has a routine of two days lecture and one day quiz but his lectures are actually not boring, there pretty funny sometimes. That is basically all the semester expect one essay but the essay is super easy because it's a biography essay.
He does not give a midterm or a final. He gives quizzes once the lesson is over. You have to write a paper about yourself, he gives you 3 months to do it. Every morning, he gives 1 extra credit (half a point when you get there early and the other half if you answer the question right). Count your points received for grade.
He is such an amazing professor, he cares about you learning! Tests after every chapter (you can use resources) and makes the lectures not boring! Show up, listen and do the work, its a solid pass! ;)
Bruce will forever be my boy. Taking his class was the only plus of my semester. Just show up, crack jokes and the information in his lectures become easier to remember which will reflect on your exams.
There are so many sweet things I can say about this man but I know I am only limited to so much space so what I will say is, he cares for his students and makes sure you know it. He teaches the lectures in a way that just keeps you so intrigued and will involve the class with his examples to keep it a bit more interesting. His class is def worth it
Okay I took his class Summer of 2019 and can I say he is probably one of the best professors Ive taken. He gives you a quiz every day based on his lectures and notes, and usually theyre take home quizzes. His final is an 8 page paper but he gives you plenty of time to finish. I truly enjoyed his class due to his intriguing lectures and lessons.
This class is fairly easy; he just goes through some PowerPoints and you take a quiz after. The big assignment is having to write a 9 page essay about your life, but it's not difficult, since it's about yourself. He was sweet and funny, and I'd recommend him if you want to pass psychology easy.
He is a great professor. The class is easy. He just goes through a PowerPoint every day ( the lecture) and then you just take a quiz after. You can also take quizzes during class and can work with others. The only big assignment is a 9-page report, but it's just about yourself and how what you've learned connects to you.
Professor Bruce was absolutely AMAZING. His lectures were easy to understand. He was very nice and willing to help at all times. His quizzes were tricky so you had to pay attention in class but they were easy. 1 paper to write which was not difficult at! Im glad i took psy 101 with him.
There is a quiz once a week along with a paper at the end of the semester. No final, no midterm. Study the chapters for the quizzes!! Definitely recommend him!!!
This professor is very kind and funny. He is a kind grader on the big paper. Still do everything on time and keep up the work. Focus on that book and the live lectures and this is an easy A.
This professor is very nice. He assigns 20-question quizzes every week and they're pretty easy. He also assigns a 9-page essay at the end of the semester, but it's not that hard and he's an easy grader.
Easiest class ever and best teacher ever. Hes so sweet and his lectures are great the only thing is you have to write an 8 page paper which I thought would be difficult but it was pretty easy and a quiz every week easiest class ever
Psychology 101 with Professor Schreibfeder has been truly inspirational, very informative and fun class. The textbook was free for this class online. You just have to attend class, read and study the textbook, pdf lecture files for quizzes every week. You write one 9 page APA essay for class. You have 2 make up quizzes. Very easy class.
Professor Bruce was the best. He was so sweet and funny. Take him if you want an easy psychology teacher. You wont regret it.
Professor Bruce was a great instructor. He doesn't assign busy work; all of the homework were quizzes and was based on the book (online textbook available, which was convenient), and they were easy as long as you pay attention. One big essay towards the end of the semester, but as long as you give yourself enough time, you'll do good.
Bruce was a huge pleasure to have as a professor. Seems to be very comfortable doing what he does, he goes out of his way to crack jokes and make things more relatable to students. Super easy class to pass as long as you show up and pay attention to what he says. No finals or midterms, just a paper that you almost have all semester to do.
Very nice Proffesor easy A
Incredibly nice and so funny, no homework and easy overall class
Chill Professor and class. Uses jokes to make the lectures fun. Interacts with class well. He is very caring. Not much homework.
SUPER easy and really nice. I definitely recommend if you need to take psych 101.
This class was very easy. There will be quizzes for each chapter most of them are take-home quizzes, there were only 4 done in class. His lectures were good and I liked that he added more information while teaching. The textbook is completely free and online. Your final is a course paper APA style 9 pages (Get a head start don't push it off)
He gives a pop quiz every morning, which was pretty easy if you paid attention to the lectures on the previous day that you had class. Also, the final is a course paper, APA style, nine pages, and it's crucial to get ahead and start it. He is funny, and you can tell he loves teaching. It makes such a big difference in the student's education.
He is a very good professor; grading is clear in the syllabus. Weekly lectures take good notes, online quizzes, and 4 in-class, but notes allowed on each quiz. Quizzes are most of your grade, with a final essay at the end in APA format; start ahead but easily finished if you pay attention in class. I would highly recommend him.
Great class. Professor Schreibfeder kept his lectures short and sweet. He also threw a few jokes in every now and then to make sure everyone was awake because it was such an early class. After every lecture, there's an open book/note quiz and a nine-page paper. But it's easier than it sounds. I highly recommend taking Professor Schreibfeder.
professor Schreibfeder was a great professor. he was funny and made the lectures interesting.
Very easy class, we only had one paper for the semester! We had a quiz based on the chapter we learned about every week but they were open book. Overall a very easy class!
This professor is Awesome! There are weekly chapter quizzes based off lectures mostly. There is a 9 page term paper based off how you were parented, it was pretty easy but start early on it. You get extra points by showing up on time and answering the question of the day which is based on the previous lecture. He is also kind of Dad joke funny.
An amazing professor! Interesting class and lots of fun. He is very funny and caring. Online/ in person quizzes and 9 page paper. No finals or midterm. It might seem like a lot but trust me it's very easy. Definitely recommend.
TAKE THIS CLASS, if you need to take psych, take his class. The lectures are a lot of info, but his lectures are great. He is a funny guy and doesn't assign too much work. There's the occasional multiple choice quiz (open note) and a 9 page paper. If you don't procrastinate on the paper, you will do great in this class.
Great teacher. Your homework are quizzes and one paper. The paper is 9 pages and is easy to make the requirements. Some quizzes are in class. Quizzes are open notes and book. Post everything on Canvas.
very easy to pass
Professor Schreibfeder is an amazing professor. He always makes jokes when he teaches and makes you feel comfortable to participate. He offers extra credit every day you go to class with an easy question. His quizzes are quite easy as long as you pay attention during the lecture. I recommend him 100%.
Professor Schreibfeder was such a fun teacher to have. It's easy to tell he's very passionate about psychology. The lectures consist of PowerPoint presentations and examples. A majority of your grade is made up of test scores and one essay. Tests are taken after each chapter. I learned a lot from this course and highly recommend taking it.
a very good professor, very kind and straightforward with the work and the lectures. would make jokes throughout the lecture, class was so smooth and well planned. the assignments were not hard and the class overall was easy to pass
Professor S. is one of the BEST teachers! I highly recommend him because his lectures are engaging and he's very funny! U will have quizzes that you can take at home & few that u have to take in class. OPEN NOTES! and he gives extra credit. U will have an APA essay in midterm. (very crucial it is worth a lot of points so do it!) NO FINAL TEST! :)
He is a great professor. I highly recommend taking his class as it is super easy. His lectures are funny and never boring. His tests are not hard and you are able to use your notes for them. He has an APA paper due towards the end but it is easy as long as you follow the rubric given. He also offers a lot of extra credit.
Very good professor and I think he use to be a comedian he was so funny!! I recommend him he explains things so smoothly and very caring teacher loved his classes!
This class was very easy especially since most of the test we had were online and done at home except for one test a month in person which was still done online! He loves participation if the topic allows he tries to get as many people involved in his lectures as he can. There was really only one big assignment which I recommend doing on time.
This professor is amazing, he is super funny and the class itself is easy even if psychology is new to you. Only really big assignment is the course paper but it's more about you than the lecture. TRUST if you want a good grade or just understand this class pick him he is THE BEST.
Amazing professor. He is always upbeat with good vibes in class. He explains the chapters very smoothly and is always available to answer questions in class as well. The only big assignment is the research paper which was not hard at all because it's supposed to be mostly about you! He also gives feedback afterwards, would HIGHLY recommend.
Super caring and fun professor. There's quizzes after every chapter and you take them at home. Sometimes hell have you take them in class but you have the whole class time for it. Textbook is online and he's super funny and makes his lectures fun
Very funny teacher, laid back, course paper is worth half the grade but we have a month to write it and the other half is quizzes given after every chapter. Highly recommend him
Summer semester was great 😊
Easiest class of my life! Took him over the summer and the hardest thing about this class was the research report but it was only nine pages (including the "cover" and sources). He gives out quizzes but they're all online and super easy if you use the slides he has posted.
Easily the best psychology professor there is at this campus! 10/10 If youre looking for great professor with a very clear lecture and a great sense of humor this is your guy.
