worst ever

He lacks communication with the class, rarely gives feedback on tests and papers, and he is always late on replying emails. Even when he let us know important notice about the exam, he sends us the email on the day of exam not before. He never inform anything in advance even if it's an important thing about the exams. He seems not like his job.

Absolutely terrible. Avoid at all costs. Lecture instruction is useless. Memorize the textbook. Prof replied to some emails, some not at all. Very disappointed.

Dr. Jones was generally a nice guy, but his lectures were dry and boring, he read paragraphs from his slides and was inaccessible outside of class time. I sent him several emails and he rarely ever responded unless I sent another, and did not give any support when I was struggling. Tests are hard and make up 60% of the grade. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Doesn't respond to emails. He is not compassionate or caring, big ego. If you have a disability don't take his class. His slides are old and I caught him giving us wrong information twice. Does not engage in classroom discussion. Should extend class to two hour classes twice per week. He is not available to speak to after class. Avoid.

He is extreme and miserable. I would never take a course with him again. Just from reading the syllabus you can tell what kind of a person he is. Just be warned..if you can take the course with a different prof, do so... any one is better than him. It's one thing if he was difficult grader but approachable and helpful.. but he is neither.

exams are ridiculously difficult, doesn't help that there is no study guide:(( unapproachable always seems like he is in a hurry to end the class and rushes the lecture:/ skips a lot of his slides:/ doesn't use up the entire three hours of class:/ funny sometimes but at times just inappropriate I do not recommend taking this course with this prof

The worst class I have taken at Douglas yet. So much -unnecessary- work. Tests are multiple choice with written sections and are very hard. Multiple choice is mainly from the textbook and get ready to read 2-3 chapters per week. Written answers are from the lectures and you need to write what he says and believes is right. The final is cumulative.

One of the most frustrating classes ever. He constantly cancels class only giving students 30 minutes of notice about the cancellation. Constantly makes derogatory jokes toward women and minorities. Constantly calls his students incompetent or not smart enough for the current material. If you're not a white man, you will 100% be offended by him.

Bryan is funny but there is so much material with so little guidance. He is usually a bit or quite late to class, skips over slides, assigns very lengthy chapters each week with quizzes, does not provide study guides for his exams, and never answers emails. There is also a big paper you have all semester to do. Would not recommend this prof.

This Professor made alot of sex jokes during the class, this made many students very uncomfortable as well as myself. He would talk about drugs like they're candy which should not be promoted in a introduction course containing many students under the age of 25. He is also the worst at responding to emails which is not very professional.

Avoid this prof if u care about your gpa in the slightest.

Bryan is very unprofessional, his tests were very hard, and subjective (you have to parrot his opinions word by word). Take this course during your last semester so your grade does not show up for your grad school application.

Doesn't show up to classes or is always a bit late, always in a rush to end, skips through slides, disorganized lectures and makes inappropriate sex and drug jokes which makes me uncomfortable.. avoid if you can

Do not take this course with him. Not available for any help. Degrades you and make it seem like you are not smart enough for all of your courses.

Innapropriate behaviour, doesn't put an effort into teaching. Has no clear expectations for his students and no rubrics, if you don't parrot his opinions you won't do well. Tries to be funny and it works when the jokes aren't creepy/gross but that isn't often, I'm afraid.

His exams are absolutely brutal. The questions are worded ambiguously, content dense, and he provides zero guidance on what to study to prepare. He doesn't answer emails, dresses inappropriately, and makes comments that sexually objectify women in his lectures. He talks about drugs like he's advertising them. Avoid at all costs.

Marking tough, disrespectful jokes, no tolerance on any late assignment even with excuses. If you wanna feel what pain is, take his class.

Do not take this course with him. Not available for any help. Degrades you, sometimes test questions are not relevant to content has learnt. No patience with answering questions.

Doesn't respond to emails. Big ego. If you have a disability don't take his class, he does not care and still mark harsh. Does not engage in classroom discussion. Not available to speak to after class, avoid if you can.

DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS

DONT TAKE THIS CLASS!

He has no clear expectations for his students and no rubrics for most of the things, missing deadline himself and expect students to make every assignment perfect, no excuses even if you turn in assignment one sec late, but get an "override" himself. If you don't parrot his opinions you won't do well. Creepy and sexual jokes are high-frequent.

Confusing and sometimes does not accept excused absences.

He talks a lot sexual jokes and he never respond to emails

Hard to talk to and his lectures often contain off-color jokes. Someone needs to get the higher-ups involved for him refusing excused absences.

Bryan makes inappropriate jokes throughout the semester that he believes are "funny." Every lecture is extremely heavy, and he doesn't give specific help when exams come around on what to pay attention to. He makes you write 3 papers throughout the semester, which don't really teach you anything. I would stay away if I were you! :)

If you have opportunity, don't take his classes, if i would know about him, i would definitely not take this class with him

I wouldn't recommend this prof. He missed classes without providing any explanation. When he did show up, his attempts to explain the material often felt unclear and unorganized. He made inappropriate jokes about sex and drugs, which made me feel uncomfortable in the class.

Makes many off colour jokes. Not available to talk to after class. Takes LONG to answer emails. Has low expectations of himself, his clothing. Seems to be full of himself on an attitude level. Avoid him if you can.

Honestly, I don't understand how this professor is even allowed to teach. He rarely shows up to class, and when he does, there's no any actual teaching. Then, out of nowhere, the exams are insanely hard, and he expects us to know every little detail that was never even covered. If you value your GPA, effort and time - don't take his class.

Dr. Jones is far more interested in being a comedian than a professor. He uses the class as an audience, making inappropriate jokes. He is condescending and will lose his temper when he doesnt know the a nswer to something. He is needlessly transphobic. His lectures are dry, lack any teaching. Exams are nothing he taught you and extremely difficult

you can take him if you want to get no knowledge and low gpa

no study guide, doesnt teach. no feedback AT ALL for exams/writtens, just gives the grade and doesnt tell u what u did wrong. he makes a hard subject even harder. weird jokes, thinks they're funny and they're not.. overall i wish i never took this class and could go back in time and drop it.

take this class if u want ur gpa to drop and to learn absolutely nothing. did well on the first written, then failed the second. they both had the same quality and writing but didnt even let me know what i did wrong, just failed me and left no feedback. doesn't teach whatsoever and makes people uncomfortable

He is an extremely tough grader and creates very difficult exams. He decides partway through the semester what assignment he wants students to complete. There are no assignment due dates listed on the syllabus, and they are not posted on Blackboard, so if you miss a class, you risk missing important deadlines entirely. Just a horrible prof.

If I could give this a 0/5 I would

I would avoid his classes at all costs. Big ego, doesn't even show up or is late, can't teach well, and is rude to students. I don't get how this guy is allowed to keep teaching. The other psych profs I've had at douglas are great, so just sign up for anybody else but him.

because of him I'll have to retake the course

Really hard tests and last minute papers. Given a week to write 2000 words.

The exams are too heavy and the lectures do not prepare students to succeed. This class dropped my gpa unfortunately :(

Absolutely disgusted this is the only prof who teaches this course. Never have I ever failed a course in my entire life but there was nothing my peers and I could do to appease him. Extremely unfriendly and ridiculous marker. No proper outline for absolutely anything and is the hardest marker I have ever encountered. AVOID at literally all costs.

Anyone in here saying he's not bad is setting you up for failure. Avoid at all costs. He's absolutely awful and the worst prof at the college. Nothing is good enough for him yet he does a poor job of properly teaching so that you know the material. Contrary to other people's words, he does NOT answer emails quick. Even ones that are important.
