Best professor I ever had.
explain and makes things clear,aslo has very good examples
He has an amazing teaching styles. He explains things in a way that you will always understand. He always want to make sure that everyone understand before he proceeds and willing to repeats himself
excellent teacher. If you read the text book and attend class this class will be your favorite
this class is great he is a really good professor and tries his hardest to explain everything and cracks jokes to make sure you understand the lesson.
He is so funny, and has patience for his students. If you need something,a quick email is all it takes. And his quizes and test are easy.
AMAZING PROFESSOR. very clear. Cute/corny jokes. I loved him and his class.
WOW.. where do i even begin? This Professor is one in a million. He has his own amazing teaching techniques. He never raises his voice. His exams are based on class assignments. I recommend him truly to anyone that enjoys being taught from the heart! Yelena-
This guy is just a kid! Seriously, he`s an excellent prof, very clear, concise and has a great sense of humor. Managed to get a very easy B Plus-and I hardly even studied for it!
Prof. Troy is a GREAT teacher. He's straight forward no B.S. if you go to class, and study his notes you can't fail.He sticks to the attendance policy so if ur a late person and miss class a lot don't even bother Anyone who takes this class will have a blast I learned a lot!
Excellent professor. Easy going manner, interesting material, encourages questions and is never impatient. If you can, take his class - you won't be dissapointed.
3 quizzes, 2 tests, 1 final. Lowest quiz is dropped. Quizzes 15% of final grade, 2 tests are 25% each, and final is 35%. All MP. Gives EC questions if you come to class on time. All quiz questions get repeated on tests, test and quiz questions make up a good part of final. Come to class, take notes - he doesn?t give you notes. Fair A.
Professor Troy was a Excellent Professor..He has 3 quizzes, 2 midterms and 1 final.. ALL Multiple Choice...He is so amazing!!!..Overall easy class.. just study your notes
One of the best teacher I have ever had. Great to talk to and is very immersed in his work. high A zen type of person
Professor Troy was OK. I pass the class .He gave me a C I'm not mad in less I got my three credits. He uses the text book a lot and his exams can be tricky if u don't study. He is a very fair and helpful man .I would recommend him to other students to take the class he was OK.
dr. troy is an awesome professor....very cute which made coming to class even better. made psychology very interesting for a person who never took it b4. and easy if u take good notes and study!!
Professor Troy is an amazing teacher, and very attractive. His lectures are extremely interesting, and he actually cares what the students have to say! His tests are fair along with his quizzes, just take good notes, and you are good to go!
AMAZING PROFESSOR! Very patient and understanding. Do your work and you'll do fine. Would definitely recommend his class to anyone. Prof. Troy makes sure you understand the topics being taught before going on to the next topic. He really is an an excellent professor!
umm i dont know what to say about him he is very good looking very helpful but i feel like he could do more to help his students pass. i think that he doesnt want to teach just looking for some extra money. the course was okay if you have options i would recommend another professor
i thought he was good u dont have to take notes u can follow in the book he gives 3 multiple choice quizes drops the lowest and lets u keep the quizes the midterm is basically all the quizes+ 10 extra quistions that u havent had before its pretty easy by the time u take the final u have seen about 90% of the qustions :)
GREAT PROFESSOR!!! Has alot of experience in the psych field and his personal stories make coming to class a treat!! A stickler for attendance and expects you to read the chapters that he covers in class. 3 quizzes, a final and a midterm.
gr8 and interesting class. sexy professor that i loved coming to class for
This is the best profesor i ever had. Smart funny and good looking
Professor Troy is amazing!!!his classes are intresting and fun, he is always calm but energetic, he has a beautiful voice, and such good looks that is great to go to class just to look at him...also he has kind eyes, and sometimes behaves like a little kid. But he takes his job seriously and his main goal is that you leran and pass his class.
This class def the best class i have taken in my two years of kbcc.The proff. is very kind very funny and easy going.The text book is about 100 bux .I loved coming to class and especially came just to stare at him.about 3 quizzes midterm and final.HHes def the best proffessor ever!
This is the best professor. Personally, I dont like science. Can't stand it. But this professor made psychology real fun. He would give us perfect examples from past experiences of his. The way he teached made me remember everything for the quiz. I wish he teaches other psych classes. BTW, very hot professor. Good looking, looks young for his age.
Chilled about how late is late, but will crack down if taken advantage of. Overall casual (for some too casual) teaching style. Textbook required to help with lecture. Excellent communicator, great illustrative stories, makes learning easy. Fun teacher.
Yes,I strongly agree,class was boring.But easy; and book is not needed.$90 -save your money.You can use old edition from library if you want.Professor Troy is nice and sexy
Great prof! Easy teacher and grader! LOL AT THE MOTHER STORIES!! But yea...we don't want to hear anyone personal stories. Sorta boring class but he tries to make it fun. You DO need the text. Final exam mainly from 2 midterms and quizes. Cool guy overall. Take him for easy grade! Also allows extra credit and makeups
Hes classes are fun and I enjoyed going to them, he makes jokes and is young soo its not stupid jokes. You have 3 quizzes 2 midterms and 1 final. He gives you a extra credit paper to replace a midterm paper which was very helpful. He answered my emails all the time and was helpful to all the questions that I asked. I highly recommend him.
Extremely articulate and engaging. However, he needs to make the class more serious and intense. This I think, will cause the students to take the class more seriously. Incorporating humor and casualness in his teaching is nice, but will backfire when the test comes, as students are not expecting a tricky test. Otherwise, smart, funny, and cute
very nice educated polite.. Pretty handsome he looks young and i like his 100 watt smile.Nice stories he has that relates to psycology easy A plus.(A+) hope to see him around.
Professor Troy is by far the best professor I've ever had. He is an amazing teacher and his technique keeps us excited to come to class. He is professional yet extremely funny and cute! I most definitely recommend taking his class.
He needs to stop talking about his ex-girlfriend,we get it u had a girlfriend. Other than that he was a GREAT professor! very clear&understanding,his i looked forward to his class, he kept us interested,definitely not boring at all, pretty entertaining.2 tests,3 quizes&the final.simple&easy,optinol essay to replace a test&drops 1 quiz.i recomennd
Professor wise, he was amazing. He relayed the information well, kept his exams short, brief and straight forward and made his class fun with in-class personality experiments and hypnotizing. Personality wise, he is a bit self-involved. From the class I know he rides a motorcycle, has a blackbelt, went to Yushiva U. &went to Paris for Thanksgiving.
He reminds me a shampoo(3 in 1) - attractive bottle, good quality and long lasting effect !!! I highly recommend him since it donna be a treat instead of the boring PSY class. If he is your professor you are the lucky one. Millions thanks to Dr.Troy
He is a great professor. If you come to class and listen well, you will get an A.
Professor Troy is such a great teacher, so easy to talk to and a beautiful smiley face. He's also an easy grader. I wish I could I have one more class with him. I totally recommend him.
Professor Troy was an awesome.He kept me interested in psychology throughout the semester,great stories and still managed to cover everything. You will learn tons and have fun at the same time don?t get scared off by his testing technique you will get used to it. Take notes come on time don?t use your cell phone in class and you will do great.
Professor Troy is one of favorite Professors. He was very clear on what he expected from us and what to expect from him. The grading I consider fair, He prepares you the whole semester for the final so bring your books,take down notes and you will pass. He kept the class interesting and fun with his teaching techniques and smile.
I was lucky enough to have Dr.Troy for both psych 11 and 32. He is an excellent professor, very professional and fair. He has a great energy which helps make the class fun and you will actually learn alot.
Dr. Troy is one of the most amazing psychologists ever! He is very professional and full of knowledge. One class with him made me want to pursue a career in psychology. He is extremely helpful in and out of class and is willing to help you out in any way possible. He is extremely cute and always has a smile on his face! Great professor! MUST TAKE!
I don't know where to start...if I could take every psychology class with him I would. He is full of knowledge and experience and is willing to just give it to you if you want to learn. Workload wasn't a lot and he was extremely helpful if their was any issue in class. Very fair grader and wonderful professor. Must take!!
Great professor, very interesting lectures and really nice to look at. An easy A if you study for the quizzes and exams...
He is the Best Professor I have ever had!!! Friendly, funny, explains everything very clear. You will not be bored in his class. Take his class you will not regret it! Easy testing, he is not hard on students at all just follow the rules and study! Write everything he gives in class, because his testing based primary on that info! He is The BEST!!!
Dr. Troy is a professional and excellent teacher/psychologist. He loves teaching and loves engaging in class discussions. I recommend taking him for all psychology classes!!!
Dr. Troy is a great professor. He knows his material and kept the class moving along smoothly. Also, he is easy on the eyes :) Take notes, read and study you will do well.
Professor troy is a very good and profetional professor. He is very easy and teaches the subject very well.
He's a good professor. He definitely has a bit of a napoleon complex and he gave me a bs grade. I tried to talk about it and he basically told me there was nothing I could do. He's a good professor but if you believe he gave you an unfit grade, GO STRAIGHT TO THE DEPARTMENT. That's what I should've done.
TAKE HIS CLASS. HE IS THE BEST.
Awesome Professor . Highly recommended if you want to learn. He makes teaching really fun. Overall a great professor.
Wonderful professor. Clear, dynamic, interesting delivery of info. Very organized and helpful. Provides interesting examples, has a great sense of humor. Makes psychology come alive.
best teacher!! nearly impossible to fail this class, he basically walks you through it, there are no surprises everything is clear. has a great attitude as well,makes class enjoyable
Great Profesor in every level of it
By far best prof at kingsborough ! Actually learned a lot in his class and he always made it super interesting. You can tell he cares , he is always willing to make time to help students. Great over all professor - absolutely take his class if you can!!!!!
The best professor in kbcc. His class was very entertaining and we learned a lot. He has power points that are very helpful and his sense of humor makes class so much fun.
I took this over the summer and never in my life have I learned so much in 6 weeks. If you are continuing with your education after kbcc, take him b/c you will learn so much that you can use later in your career. His text was expensive but it is a very easy read. If you are continuing, buy it b/c you will look back at it. Study and come to class!!
He is very clear, VERY interesting guy, you can really learn a lot!!! Very intelligent and makes class very fun. It was the only class i actually wanted to go to.
LOVE THIS GUY!!!! he's soooo nice and soooo funny. his funny personality makes him hot and he's sooo good! i never took psych and when i took this class, i loved it! this class is highly recommended
Ah I love this guy! He's absolutely amazing, not to mention beautiful=) Learned so much from him. Highly recommend him!
He's a great professor, keeps the class engaged with laughs and stories to illustrate important points. he also weighs the grades you get differently from most professors - whatever you do best in will count as more, and your lowest grade will count as the least percent. totally geared towards helping us do well
Overall a great teacher. Very helpful and teaches well. Everything that I learned in the class is beneficial when taking a test and now I have a better understanding.
Pretty Easy. Make sure you dont miss a class = missing a lecture = failing a quiz/test. very straight forward with information. loves having class discussions. 3-4 tests (easy if you study the slides he puts up on BB). Rarely gives homework.
He's a very good guy :)
AWESOME and passionate about his work. :)
His third quiz for years has been an attendance quiz! Automatic 100% (if present of course). If you like hot professors, take him. His personality will make you never be able to take your eyes off of him and focus on everything he's saying!! Easy A if you attend and participate in his lively discussions. If only I wasn't leaving KBCC...
One of the Best Psy Teachers in KBCC!Hands down! he has a passion to teach.
Cool teacher, cute guy, very sensitive and intuitive. He is sensational, take it, you won't regret. He help me a lot. Attendance is important for him. Class was very funny, he jokes a lot. he makes psychology 32 alive. At the beginning I hate him,but finally I love him and you will love him too. Easy teacher. Easy grader.
He's cool. He's funny and he does a great job at giving fun facts and sometimes life morals, but when it comes to teaching the course.. He spends more time telling you personal stories then teaching course material. Is this a bad thing? Depends on you. The tests were annoying because they aren't straight forward. He's okay... And merely okay.
Great professor, would recommend him to any student, very clear and goes into more dept about the material he's teaching. Will answer all your questions, study for those exams.
Very sweet shy awkward funny professor gets intimidated easily would take again though hes sarcastic which made him a little cruel but he's a beginner in teaching so can't complain lectures are long and all on black board tests are easy u just have to study and he's got some jokes and stories he gets lost in but there interesting!
He is probably the best psychology professor in kingsborough! He tells a lot of personal stories, whch are actually helpful if you are interested in the psychology field. His tests aren't hard if you studied. And he is definitely not a tough grader. Take him! You won't regret it if you try a little bit.
The best!!!!!!!!! He is very funny, slighltly awkward in a cute way! By far the best professor I've ever had!
Not a tough class. But you have to be there every class cuz although all tests are based on the slides, many things that he says in class show up on the tests, but are not on the slides. Three quizzes. Last one is an automatic 100 if you're there. 3 group assignments, all easy. he's a good professor overall.
Very helpful professor. Makes learning process less boring.
He is a clinical psychologist with a large background in clinical work. That said his classes are amazing and you WILL learn every class. He loves to make references from his class to the real world which helps a lot. -Textbook was not necessary, print power point slides instead -Electronics are ok (tablets, laptops) -Participation is key
I took this class semesters ago when I was still at KBCC . He's very passionate about learning. His personal stories aid with his lesson beautifully. Oh yeah, he's cute as heck,If only I wasn't student , lol jk, maybe.
Very handsome Prof; He has such a lovely smile, he is the sweetest guy on earth, and seems to be a good psychologist in his field, but as a professor i dont think he is the best. He is very inspirational and would answer all your questions, including those that are not related to the class and that's precisely his problem. He easily goes of topic.
Life-changing professor
The most important parts are midterm and final tests. You have to be prepared well. His class is easy. Requires one presentation and one research project. It was interesting and easy. Grades by your test results of your midterm and final. He is smart, but his methods are not so good. He could speak more and cut off that students' presentation works
Great teacher. Didn't do well on first two tests, but got perfect scores on the last two and the final. He would not continue class until Everyone understood the material; if you had a question, he would make sure you understood his answer by giving personal stories and funny examples. Smart guy. Took him for his online class as well and was great
Honestly, I enjoyed Professor Troy's class. He wastes no time and goes straight into his powerpoints in the beginning of the class. The midterm, final, and quizzes consists of all the material he covers in class so if you're paying really good attention there should be no reason as to not getting an A.
love of my life! best professor in the entire world
His class is very interesting, he's a great professor, he gives great lectures but he loves to say "in essence..." it's a little too much let's calm down buddy
He is hands down one of the best psychology teachers ever! He gives absolutely amazing lectures with things you'll take with you throughout life. I would 100% take his class again.
THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER!! He gives absolutely the most amazing, inspirational lectures! I would recommend him over anyone! He is perfect! DONT MISS THE OPPORTUNITY TAKE HIS CLASS!
This teacher is bad. Really awkward and should be somewhere else and not teaching. Although he has knowledge of his subject he doesn't know how to teach. He is very strict with attendance. 1 second after you miss attendance is lateness.
dont seem to understand why hes got such good feedback? The professor talks about how bad his life was when he was working as a psychologist. Not to mention the constantly talking about his flight to NY ( he lives in SC) he goes off topic and we dont get a chance to ask questions. He hands us a packet to learn ourselves. His test are acumaltive.
Great prof! He gives absolutely interesting and inspirational lectures. Highly recommended, you will learn a lot from him! He is very intelligent and slightly awkward. Demonstrates excellent organizational skills and high level of professionalism. His jokes and personal stories made the class more fun. But be prepared to put in an effort.
Wonderful professor, interesting lecturer, enjoyed his sense of humor and stories. Not too many tests and dropped the lowest grade. Ive never seen anyone grade papers and post the grades so fast - usually by the next day. Loved his class.
loved him
Great Professor!!
He moves Very Fast, if you pass 3 tests with all above 90 then your going to get a solid A+ if you messed up then you have to make up for it there's 4 tests so do well on the all 3 and yo don't have to do the 4th. I loved him but i would not recommend him because he teaches at a level that he expects everyone to be at par with him which isn't fair.
I really enjoyed this class, maybe because I'm a psychology major, however this class was easy for me. All the tests were online, until the Psych board made him give in class tests. Even after that, the tests were easy and understandable if you showed up, paid attention and took notes from the powerpoints. I don't remember using the book.
he is very knowledgable you learn a lot about the subject he is caring talk to him if you need help he is very understanding
Professor Troy is relatable, and pretty clear cut. Just do what's asked of you. I'd take him again
He is great but his exams are hard and easy at the same time multiple choices questions are confusing they are similar to each other
Such a great professor! He explains everything in detail, and relates it to everyday situations. His test are easy as long as you understand the material. No homework and drops the lowest test grade. Textbook isn't mandatory, but recommended.
He's an excellent professor
Very straightforward. All his slides are online and during class he goes in depth and explains the slides thoroughly. If you listen to his lectures during class you will defenitely be prepared for his exams because everything on the slides and what he says in class is what is on the tests. He does not give anything that he did not already cover.
It was an online class and it was great. Professor Troy will give plenty of time for you to listen and study his youtube audio/ slides and do the homework. Fair grading and easy exams, just do your homework on time and listen to the audio and you'll get the info you need to pass the class. This was my first online class and I loved it!
He is not good professor. He give a hard question and time limited. He give a 40 question on 60 minutes . Question really hard. He doesnt give extra credit. I dont know why he has 4,5 rate. Its not right.
Professor Troy is the most organized and scheduled professor. I chose him for my next semester too. He is always ready to answer your emails, his feedback is good. His grading system is very clear and grades by few things. This was very interesting class.
I chose him for my online class. He has very good youtube videos recorded which you need to watch to do well on assignments. He also has notes on each chapter which is very helpful and power points as well. His quizzes are very straight forward. Great professor. Who makes online learning very comfortable
Great professor, does not give a lot of work. Grades fairly.
My course was async and I was very overwhelmed at first because I wasn't sure what to expect but he was very understanding and the syllabus was very self-explanatory. The PowerPoint videos were very helpful.l I have learned so much. There were 4 exams multiple choice If you watch the yt videos they are very simple. 3 assignments, I enjoyed them.
On tests and exams he gets the questions sometimes, out of nowhere. but overall the grade was great, I was expecting A- but he gave me A+ .. I was not that much into his classes since it seemed to me kind of boring.
A nice and straightforward person. Easy to pass due to his YouTube videos and discussion topics. Lovely experience .
Very easy class Only 4 tests 25-30 questions for the semester about 2 papers
Prof. Troy's syllabus was clear and concise with realistic expectations and deadlines. His video lectures were very informative and provided sufficient info necessary to complete assignments and exams.
This professor is amazing , i recommended this professor he is very helpful , he HM is no difficult. i really recommend this professor .
Pretty fair Professor, just do your work and you will pass
I advise Professor Troy to everyone exciting and valuable videos and material in general. He does not set many tasks. He will always answer messages if you turn in assignments on time, watch videos and read the material. The professor will give a high score.
He is a really great professor I would totally recommend him for psychology.
Interesting class!!!
Easy class. Very few quizzes, 2 attempts (grade is the average of the 2 attempts), and you can do them all whenever you want as long it is before the deadline. Other work given is also easy, and you will usually get the grade for your work by the end of the week it was submitted. Lectures and powerpoints are insightful
The class is interesting, you will learn a lot during the class, additionally to go over course online modules is easy organized. The professor is understanding person, He just want to see your participation and that you trying. The homework is not hard. There is 3 exams with 2 attempts. I would take this professor again if he had other classes
Great online class with clear lectures and helpful resources like videos and slides. Assignments are straightforward - just stay on top of the work and you'll do well. Unstuck study was a game-changer for study prep.
Amazing professor who enjoys actually enjoys teaching-rarity in this world. Follow his due dates and submit everything on time! He grades on a timely manner and gives heads up. Tests are through Blackboard and there are two tries which are averaged. Participate and do the extra credit-it's easy and interesting.
