She kept the interest of students. Made it very clear what was needed to get an A in the class. The class had lotz of laughs. Definitely take this prof for psy 100 if you are interested
No Comments
she is a awesome professor. she makes the subject very interestiing but she is kind of hard but if you do your work you will be fine .
Lousy and hard. Not committed to initiating student success. Unrealistically demanding...expects besides extra credit assignment on weekly basis, also tutoring to get extra points. Extremely hard for working people.
Very interesting lectures. You will not fall asleep in her class. I took it on a friday night, and was dreading to go there(would rather go out), but it was so much fun that i started looking forward to her classes. You do have to study, but overall, if you need psychology for your major, take Prof.Busbee, you wont be disapointed.
She made it very interesting and pretty fun. She does give a lot of extra credit possibilities, 1 a week. Tests are every week on a new chapter. If you study, pay attention, and do the extra credit...you'll do good. Overall good class! I enjoyed it.
cool but 5 absents you atomatically fail her class. 2 quiz per week on blackboard. final exam in class on all chapters. she is cool, but a hard grader.
professor busbee i sone hell of a professor she gives 2 chapter tes weekly but you do them on blackboard and at home so you can use your text bok to help find answers do all the test and participate in class and you will pass. no mid term and no home work. final is msde up of the weekly test you take on blackboard so print and study them.
i wish she taught everything. i loved her method of teaching and she is very clear. busbee makes it very easy to pass and she knows her work. i hope to have her again.
it's very easy to get an A! She also gives handout and the quiz is basically from the book,u just have to read it!
Very outgoing and very interesting. Would love to have her again. 2 quizzes a week can do @ home. Midterm & Final in school but are exact q's from quizzes. Wish all classes were like hers. Great professor & great teaching skills.
Busbee is straight up, no nonsense. Do the work and get an A. Miss class, $#%@ up and goof off and fail. It;s that simple.
the best proffesor ever !!!
Great professor. Two quizzes a week, quizzes are done at home using blackboard. She gives out sheets reviewing each chapter. Answers to quiz questions can be found in these sheets as well as in the text book. Midterm and final are the same questions in the quizzes, just not all of them.
She very interesting and i would recommend her. She was one of my favorite professors and i bet she'll be yours. Go to class and its an easy A+.
She was a wonderful professor. Who was very in depth. I would definitely recommend students to take her course.I would like to get in touch with Professor Busbee does anyone have her current email address?
Be careful with her. If you write an "A" paper, she'll accuse you of plagerizing because "no one writes "A" papers besides her." Overall shes a bad professor. I wont recommend her to anyone.
I took psychology in high school , Collage Now at Hunter and with professor busbee, by far she was the BEST professor I ever had. She tells you exactly what she expects from the class during the first day. Her midterm and final is SUPER easy if you do all the homework. If you work full time and want an easy A i recommend you take this class.
Great teacher. I learned a lot from her and she makes lectures fun. Took what I learned from her and exceled in my other psych classes.
She is a darling! Her humor is ridiculous and her sacarsm is worse!Can't help but love her...class worth taking! You learn so much more than Psy!
she a good professor.
I actually thought of studying psychology after taking her class. She's excellent.
professor busbee made learning fun you have a 99% chance of getting an A GREAT PROFESSOR I HIGHLY RECOMEND HER
SHE IS GREAT!!! IF YOU DONT LIKE PSYCHOLOGY... YOU SHOULD TRY HER,,,THEN, YOU WILL LOVE IT...SHE IS AMAZING. HER CRITICAL THINKING IS WOOOWWWW!!!!
SHE IS GREAT!! If you are disorganized, often late/abent, don't have neither blackboard nor memorizing skills, you are not welcome in her class but other wise, she is the best professor there is. Trust me she is WORTH TAKING. You'll be glad that you chose to be in her class. If you choose not to take her class, you'll regret everything. I LOVE HER
SHE IS THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER!! I LOVE HER! SHE IS WORTH TAKING!! Only if you are often late/absent that you are not welcome in her class but other than that she is an A giving teacher. You'll not see a teacher like her. She is amazing and very easy and friendly. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO TAKE HER CLASS!!! YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID!!! Take her class!!!!
One of the best professors I ever had. Makes the material interesting. I graduated with BA social work and I took her class back in 2000. She has and very engaging personality and helpful demeanor. She is very passionate about teaching psychology. She really knows her subject well. Very challenging but you will learn alot. I strongly recommend her!
Take her. She's very nice, fun and has a lot of good stories. She's a good grader too.
prof. busbee is of the best prof. to have and take. she is really a fair prof. people that gotten F on psy. take her she makes the material easy and straight forward. Just do her daily quizzes they average and study for her midterm and final which she gives the answers too but just study him.
Proff. Busbee is a really good proffesor she keeps the class engaged, and she explain very clear and give good examples. i really reccomend her. i took her class las semester and i got an A . i did all my quizzes on time and good attendance she is very fair proffesor...the best i ever had.!
very funny outgoing professor very helpful
One of the best classes I took at BMCC. Busbee's lectures were so fun and I accidentally learned more about the basics of psychology than I meant to.
Excellent Professor.
She's real straight foward keeps the class intresting and intertaining isnt so easy though talks threw the whole class not much showing the work if u dunt catch up you'll need to ask for help Her booklets dunt really Define meanings or clears things up stright foward just like her no explaning jus definitions needs to Write things out more clearly
all her test are online so you can do them at your convience.her class are lively and you will pass. she gives extra credit to make up scores. finals are based on the same onlnie test so jus cram and you will get full score.
Prof busbee is very helpful. If it wasn't for her i wouldn't of pass this class bc psychology is a little hard for me. You only have to take her quizzed online on your own time and the midterm and finals are straight from the quizzes. She talks a lot hense the name busbee but shes a great prof.
Horrible, no help what's so ever . Came to class everyday to look at a packet every week with the same boring talk. Plus it was a night class so very tiring. Other than that no home work or class work. Grades were based off of online quizzes weekly and heavily on midterm and final which people also thought was limited. Never again would I have her
This class is a no-brainer. If you want an A for the technicality of showing up and doing no work, this is the class for you (I refused to be party to this). If you are actually interested in the subject matter and want to learn something, take it with anyone else. This was singularly the worst class I have ever attended in any subject matter.
Great prof! Juss pass your online quizzes, show up to class, and pass the final which is soo easy! Of course if you study. Do not be late for class she will not open the door!
Lectures were very interesting. Midterm and final are exactly like the homeworkers.
This is my 3rd full time semester and my second amazing Professor. It's the interaction more than anything else. Prof. Busbee is very knowledgeable and cares about her students. She shares her knowledge of life as well as psychology.
I felt very fortunate after taking her class, as she had tremendous amount of knowledge in Psy( She has PHD). She cares for her students 100% and her teaching style is outstanding. If you do her h/w and pass the quizzes, you will get an A. I LOVE YOU and I will always miss you.
remember this at all times..no cell phones allowed in class or that'll be 5 points off your final overall grade. Each class she gives you a booklet on the chapter so theres no need for textbook, weekly quizzes of each chapters 20 questions each. midterm and final is based off the online quizzes. she can be a bit nuts in a good way so just sit back
This class was horrible. Not only was it not the least bit challenging, but the professor could not stop expressing her liberal views. She spoke of politics more than she did psychology. If you want an easy "A", take her, but if you want to challenge yourself intellectually, take another professor.
Informative, knows the material, engaging, knows how to teach the material. My second professor that was amazing.
Prof. Busbee seems to go off topic 70% of the time. Sometimes I have no idea what she is talking about, other times shes great. If you have a question about homework, test, or due assignments you are better off asking your peers because she will laugh in your face and keep it pushing. Her sense of "humor" is different from another human being.
You can tell she loves what she does. Very educational and loves to involve stories into her lectures which makes it easy to recall information while doing online quizzes. She gives a quiz for each chapter. And the answers to the quizzes are in her lecture handouts. There are two exams that consist of all the quiz questions.
She is a nice professor and funny but her liberal, political views are really annoying. She spent most of her time talking about politics
BEST PROFESSOR EVER! she hands you out booklets for each chapter, and provides a power point as well. the answers are literally right in front of you. she's one of my favorites and she radiates positive vibes.
THIS PROFESSOR'S AWESOME! She gives you bookletsoutlines for every chapter which we all appreciated very much. The test questions come directly from the quiz so it doesn't make sense to fail the tests. I really enjoyed the semester because of her class!
She is the best , She is very understanding and very sweet but if you don't do her work she fails you. She takes uus seriously and I love it because she treats us like were something special towards us. She is very Funny and gives us chapter booklets. shes awesome.
Professor Busbee is an amazing psychology professor. She really knows how to teach students how to be independent. She gives chapter booklet so you really don't need a textbook. You take online quizzes and the midterm and final questions comes directly from the quizzes, which is super easy. If you show up and do your work you'll definitely pass.
Professor Busbee is a marvelous individual. She gave clear work, and gave due dates. It's safe to say an A grade is almost handed to you. She is a feminist(not radical), and does have liberal views. However, I didn't care I just did what I was supposed to do- then left. Easy class, and if you do work outside of it you will ACTUALLY learn.
Professor Busbee will give you every chance possible to get an A in her class. Book isn't exactly necessary. The weekly quizzes are extremely easy and she also gives TONS of extra credit. Just do all the work and show up and you will definitely get an A. She makes psych really engaging and interesting.
I loved Busbee! She mad a three-hour lecture incredibly entertaining. You will not be bored. No book needed in class, it can stay home, just bring a pen, she gives out the chapter outlines to take notes on. Quizzes are incredibly easy as are midterm and final. The only thing that was unclear were the three papers, but other than that easy A!
I love Busbee! She mad a three-hour lecture on a friday night incredibly entertaining. You will not be bored trust me. No book needed honestly, she gives out the chapter outlines to take notes on and gives you the pages where the answers of the exam questions are.
To all psych degree transfer students, don't take her please. She talks about politics in her class 90% of the time. She's strict about phones. Sleeping is a absent. And is very rude when you ask her a question. This is a easy class but feel like if she don't like you, she will give you a lower grade. If you see her name, run!
AMAZING PROFESSOR! If you need to take psych 100, i recommend busbee! she's amazing and an easy A. just do your work and participate, also don't be rude with your phones out or sleep, she takes away points for that. she's a very nice person and she really does care for her students and gives every opportunity for an A. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
She is not helpful at all. She gets mad when you ask her questions even though shes the one who isn't clear enough. She literally talks for the entire class with no breaks but is always getting out of topic. She spends more than half the time talking about politics. However her work is easy. Weekly quizzes, 3 easy projects, a midterm and a final.
Quizzes every week, 2 heavy project, and no absences if you did more than twice you fail without any condition. Very strict, serious and harsh grade..
Amazing professor! Her lecture tend to get off topic for a few minutes but covers the entire chapter in one lecture ! She makes the midterm and final super easy! 2 very easy projects, no homework, and weekly quizzes that will you help you remember the material!
She has very good intentions and clearly knows what she's talking about when it comes to psychology. BUT she is extremely out of line in a lot of ways. She lectures about who to and not to vote for (I took this class during election time). If you teach yourself the material you'll be fine but she doesn't teach it well. its easy, though, so whatever
She's not a bad professor BUT please do expect not to learn anything from her. You'll be reading on your own to learn the material. She talks a lot of the politics and presidential topics. I thought this was psychology not political science...? It's easy if you do everything but it's hard to learn anything in class from her.
Great professor literally the definition of if you want the A you'll work for it. If you fail a test there are many ways you could make it up, quizzes every week bt they're online and are simple yet VERY helpful and prepares you for test. Talkative but interesting.
Best professor I've had! She's hilarious and makes everything so easy to understand!
I love her! It's important to pay attention to lectures because quiz answers are always in her statements lol. Great professor, very approachable!
I would not recommend this professor she only talks about politics in class and put you to read all the time and don't know how to explain correctly. When you ask her something about the class she gets mad.
shes a good professor its that she loses track a lot and just rambles on about politics for most of the class. It was really hard for me to learn anything while in class. The textbook is not mandatory but helped me a lot without it I would've failed. Be ready to learn on your own at home. Final was based on all the quizzes so it wasn't too hard.
Great Professor. One of the best professor I've ever had. She not only knows her material but she also knows how to teach it. She is very approachable. She has a very clear grading criteria as long as you take the quizzes and pay attention you will be good in the class. We don't use the book a whole lot. She is very funny, passionate and woke.
very easy class. you'll take a quiz after every class at home! quizzes are 20% midterm 20% finals 20% project 35% participation 5%. she very straight up with you. BTW she really HATES Trump lowkey think she wants to be president. MIDTERM AND FINALS ARE 50 QUESTIONS that are taken from your quizzes, very easy if you study. I give her 8/10
Its really easy to get an A with her. Just be aware that theres weekly online quizzes every week but they are so easy. There is not homework. She would just assign u a project that has two parts but she would give you plenty time to get it done. Midterm and final are taken from the online quizzes so just memorize them.
Shes the most sweetest straight forward person Ive ever met lol. No she will not answer a question thats given to us in the syllabus she excepts us to be independent learners. She does go off topic sometimes but she isnt a bad professor at all. I would recommend taking her.
love this professor. i would take this course over and over again. work load wasnt that bad and she really works with you so you understand the content. just make sure you show up to class, she big on participation. if you dont make a friend to write your name on the attendance sheet.
The best teacher!! Lecture in class and quiz online when you get home and she will give you the pages number so when you go home is very easy. The only bad thing is that she talks a lot but good cause u dont need to participate since do it by her self. you only do midterm and Final as a test and is based on the quiz you did at home. and 2 project
All she wants to talk about is politics. If youre a republican do not take her class !
Amazing teacher. She wants you to pass the class and makes it as easy as possible to do so. do your homework and the extra credit and you'll ace the final and midterm. If you pay attention to what she is trying to teach you politically and socially it is well worth some of the very boring technical things you have to learn in an intro psych class.
in all honesty she is an okay professor she talks a lot and makes corny jokes, has favorites in the classroom and can be rude sometimes. She does give good lectures though and gives extra credit DO THE FLASHCARDS if you take her class for real you'll need them.
Professor Busbee's class was a delight to be a part of. She offers a lot of insight into the psychological work-up of the mind and how WE can positively change our perception of things and the social contract. She conveys the material taught in a clear and concise manner.
Prof. Busbee made me consider changing my major to PSY. Her lectures were very informal and she made them very interesting, she knows what shes talking about! youll have quizzes after each chapter you finish which are fairly easy. and no text book needed, all her slides have the information you need and she prints them out for you. easy tests!
I just took her class this semester and it's really an easy class to pass if DO the FLASHCARDS, study the lectures she makes copies, do the quizzes, also the exams. The questions on the exams are LITERALLY on the flashcards. You would have 2 exams, 2 projects based on a video and quizzes on chapters 1-10, 13 and 14.
she is a great professor her lecture are great but she doesn't let people use technologies in her class , but you won't get bored in the her class she joke a lot while she teaches , she gives extra credits sometime but if you do well in her quizes and projects your won't need them, she also post her lecture online, she give copy of the textbook
show up on time, DO THE FLASH CARDS! And homework, projects as well, very easy class!
i think she's very good at doing her job , she make this class so easy for her students. Basically all you have to do is go to class pay attention to her lecture then go home take her quiz . she also gives extra credit and do the flashcard cause it helps on the midterm. Her project are very simple, you watch a video and answer her question.
Professor Busbee delivers clear straight forward class. All the materials,quizzes, exams and lectures are presented in an easy to understand plain language and you do well with this class if you pay attention. Thats all she asks.
I learned so much with Professor Busbee! Great professor!!
Professor Busbee was the best. Especially during the pandemic, she didnt load us with a lot of work. But we did have to pay attention and participate during zoom
She's really great! Her lectures are dense, and if you don't take notes you're likely to miss a lot. She makes them fun though! She's really strict about due dates and taking the initiative to find the answers to questions about them on your own. She tells you to study the flashcards for quizzes- DO IT. If you do, you'll get an A. Loved this class!
She's very very helpful professor. Gives good explanations by providing life examples. I would recommend her 100/100
Easy stupid class. Just follow along, do the flashcards, and remember all of the stuff talks about. She's not too bright. Boring and with a lefty political slant all the time. Just agree with her, study the flashcards as they are the test. Over and done and never again. Much better virtually so I can zone out while she rambles on...
Bad professor
It takes a specific kind of teacher to not only show you the value in the world but to also show you the value in yourself. Its professors like Cheryl Busbee who keep us going even when we dont have anything left in ourselves. I am beyond blessed to be able to have taken prof Busbee for my psychology class. Thank you, you have changed my life!
Cheryl Busbee is an amazing professor. She's very straightforward and has zero tolerance for lazy people. Her lectures are clear and amazing. I would recommend anyone to have her as a professor. The homework always correlates to her lectures and you do weekly journals, but it's not hard.
Professor Busbee's class was great, although it was long it was packed with information. Very easy to pass if you do weekly journals and quizzes since midterm and final are based on quiz questions she has given already.
Busbee is a good professor
1. There is a lot to learn and she goes off-topic a lot, we waste a lot of time. 2. Journals of each class 3. She talks a lot about politics, she doesn't like Freud and she doesn't like that you talk about Freud 4. Easy Quiz, Extra Credit, Projects It's an easy class she likes to explain, and she is organized. Good professor
Cheryl Busbee is one great Professor was a pleasure for me to take a class with her. She is very organized, and the quizzes that she gives are very easy to do because all the material is covered in class, the journal's assignments about the class are very easy to do since that is about 3-5 thing that you find interesting in class. Best Professor!!
I had this professor for an online class. the camera is required. This teacher is rude and unprofessional to her students. she interrupts her students when speaking in class. she doesn't answer any emails and will tell you to refer to blackboard. she is not helpful. the course is pretty easy to pass but I wouldn't recommend this professor.
warning! she will talk your ear off on her dislike for Freud! also her very much hate for trump. if you can let her have a say the class is easy! the quizzes are on the slides she provided. people complain she dose not respond to emails but when i have emailed she did respond. you must show your face on zoom showing pets & babies will distract her
Enlightening, totally worth every second of it. Only flaw is the internet connect at times for online lecture but I think she is working to fix it next semester. Journals after lectures are actually a summary of what you learned in the lecture. Also loved the projects as I really learned from them.
She is a great professor. She is hard on her journal but her quizzes are easy if you pay attention.
I loved professor busbee's class. Great lectures, she uses real life examples so you understand her work. Two weekly quizzes and 1-2 journal entries a week. Heads up- The journals need to be detailed. The quizzes are all the same questions used on the midterm and the finally. She records her lecture which helps refresh your memory for the journals.
"Professor Busbee is very opinionated and often brings politics and including her upbringing by nuns, into discussions. She expects students to be very independent and does not provide much guidance, The weekly journals need to be done exactly as instructed, or you risk losing points. Personally, I find her to be somewhat rude
I took this professor based on good reviews but dropped the class due to a frustrating experience. She is a harsh and biased grader—points are deducted if your answers don't align with her opinions. She often brings politics into lectures, making it feel more like her personal journal than a psychology class. DO NOT TAKE HER.
I would drive to school without a seatbelt to her class because I wanted to die before taking her lecture.
Wow, she is a nice, sweet, and caring professor. Take her u will not regard.
Take her u will not regard. also she give you feedback which may help u to improve
Professor Busbee very scarsitic but she is sweet for a while. She treats the class like a roasting match.. Brings a lot of politics about modern world into the class so it makes it relatable. Obsessed with the discussions journals because its 25 if your grade. Don't FAFO and get caught using chatgpt because she knows. But she cool but talks a lot
This professor was extremely unhelpful. Lectures were just rambling with no structure, and assignments came with zero guidance. Instead of feedback, students received rude, dismissive comments that offered nothing useful. The class was frustrating, discouraging, and a complete waste of time. I would never recommend this professor.
