He is the weirdest professor I have ever seen. he knows what he's talking, but he MOVES AROUND so much that I can't focus in class.He likes to touch things around the room,swing his legs, and contradict himself with the textbook.He has an extremely boring tone. But, according to him, his lectures is not important,coz the tests based on the textbook

You have to read to understand. The professor open to answer questions and help to understand but not traditionally. He prefer to challenge by thinking. Encourage participation and discussion. Concepts always necessary and required but not always spent class time teaching it. Readings brings good knowledge to facilitate discussion and debate.

Dr. Manier is totally fair, and never plays favorites. One thing you can be certain about is that, if you fail this course, it is because you did not study enough. He is the best professor I have ever had, and although I did not get a good grade from him, I blame myself, because I know I didn't study enough.

Not an easy class. But read the text, and read your notes consistently. Best way to study for his tests are to make index cards of each person or concept he discusses and memorize the facts about them. Only gives a midterm and final, no need to attend class. Extra credit also given in case you're scared about your performance in the class.

Prof Manier teaches this class from ancient philosophy. If u have no interest in ancient then don't take this class. He goes into heavy detail about philosopher's & their theories, which is not an easy to understand. He doesn't explain the topics well. If u don't do well on the midterm then writing the extra credit is a must.

In short, Manier is a great professor. He stresses the importance of philosophy in psychology, and he does well in explaining each school of thought (which is not an easy feat). He really engages everyone in discussion and has a very laid back attitude. He gives reviews before tests,so as long as you do the assigned readings you're getting an A.

Prof. Manier is one of my favorites I've had at Lehman by far. His voice is a bit monotone but he heavily encourages class discussions and is very invested in the material. His detailed lectures and numerous extra credit opportunities are foolproof for a good grade. He is beyond kind and understanding. I'll miss his classroom, in person and online!

Prof. Manier made things so much easier during the pandemic. Hes very caring and understanding. He encourages group discussions. His tests can get tricky, but just make sure you study and you should be fine. He gives study guides and posts his powerpoints. No homework, and you can email him if anything. I highly recommend taking him. A true gem!

Great professor. He is very understanding. My grade will be based on four tests. Of the four tests, three were multiple choices and one essay. He also offers the opportunity for extra credit. The test is tricky; however, if you listen to his voice thread reviews for the test and read the book, the exam will be easier. (I took the course online)

Nicest guy, understanding and laid back. Keeps his students up to date with lots of helpful emails. If you listen to his lectures and take notes, especially his exam review ones, it's impossible to not get an A.

Super easy going and very to the point. I had him for an online History of Psych course and I couldn't be happier. The syllabus was clear and to the point, the textbook was free and short reflection essays can be turned in for every chapter as extra credit. No homework, the lectures were prerecorded and 3 tests. Mostly independent work.

GREAT PROFESSOR, he actually cares about the students and is very flexible with work. Class time is only to go over the chapter and for any other questions, extra credit options. The exams are not hard, he provides a study sheet, and the questions in the exam are based on the sheet just has to be prepared. I would definitely recommend him.

Proff David is the best. Took this course online with him and he uploads his lecture prior to the class. You can chose to read but everything is already on his slides. Exams are easy as long as you use his slides and his study guide. He gives extra credit by writing an essay on the chapter you read, summarized. Definitely recommend him.

Prof. Manier is great! All you have to do is watch the recordings, attend class if you want, and always look at his test reviews because his exams are exactly like the review. He is very nice and funny, I don't know how his score isn't higher! He also provides some extra credit essays, the only con is that your only grade is based off of 3 tests.

Very clear grading criteria, very flexible and helps review prior to exam. All information to the exam is given just study it.

Prof. Manier is great. Attendance is not mandatory after first 3 classes. There are 3 exams- for which he provides thorough reviews the week before. They are very easy to pass (multiple choice). No homework, no papers. Comprehensive final exam. All lectures are posted, so you can learn at your own pace. Plenty of extra credit opportunities. 10/10!

even though its an online class, its set up to be asynchronous so you can basically work at your own pace. I stopped going to class a few weeks in and i just read the chapters and notes instead. I would have appreciated a better format, the slides weren't very organized. He is a nice and chill professor but I think the class needs more structure.

Makes attendance mandatory for the first three classes and than the class turns asynchronous. Offers extra credit and study guides are voice threads which are straight to the point. Exams are open book and follows the study guides. Very funny and likes to engage with his students. Easy A!
