He really is a great professor. The readings for class take on average 2-3 hours a chapter. (one chapter a week) Reading quizzes are online. He is very passionate about this subject and gives very interesting lectures. Class discussions are helpful. He is very student-oriented and wants them to succeed. Also very funny.
Brother Marrott is the best professor I have ever had. Class is never boring! Love the class!
Brother Marrott was by far one of my favorite professors. He is a great teacher, and his lectures are interesting and engaging. He's incredibly funny, and he gives thorough study guides for his tests. As with any psych class, there's quite a bit of reading. I would ABSOLUTELY take his class again.
Brother Marrott is awesome!!! I've never had so much fun in the testing center as when I'm taking his tests. He really tries to make sure you know what's going to be on the test. It also helps that he really loves the material and will make you love it too! Super awesome teacher! Definitely take him if you have the chance!
Brother Marrott has been awesome! I've never gone to class and not laughed my head off or not been interested. He loves what he teaches and it really made me interested in psychology. Tests are a little tougher and count for a lot but if you read the book you'll be fine. I would definitely take a class from him again.
Bro Marrott is AWESOME! Definitely take his class. He is so funny. I actually look forward to going to his class. He is very passionate about the subject and it is obvious he wants the best for his students. He knows what its like to be a student and he incorporates that into the way he runs the class. Hands down, favorite teacher at BYUI.
Bro marrott is the coolest! his class isn't easy, but it also isn't impossible! i learned a ton and really enjoyed his lectures. His tests are difficult, but he puts some humor in them which is greatly appreciated. He is super young and so he is more relatable. i really enjoyed his class
He is very engaged with his students and truly loves psychology. He makes it fun and interesting.
Brother Marrott is the best teacher I've ever had. His lectures are entertaining and informational. He knows what he is talking about and only talks about things that he thinks are important/on the test. He is so funny and sarcastic and I found myself in tears every day. He is there to help and I would definitely take this class again!!
I loved Brother Marrott's class! He's super funny and you can tell he truly loves psychology. There's no midterm or final exam. Tests can be a little tough. He usually gives a thorough study guide for them. Try not to skip class because he gives out random participation grades! Also, he drops the 2 lowest quiz grades! TAKE HIS CLASS!!!
Brother Marrot is awesome. His class is lecture almost all of the time, but if you are paying attention it's really interesting. He is probably the funniest teacher ever. Every class he cracks sarcastic jokes and just makes the class that much more enjoyable. There's no homework, only quizzes and tests. If you go to class you will pass. Choose him!
Brother Marrot is by far my favorite professor I have had throughout all of college. He is very knowledgeable about what he is teaching and is extremely funny. He never gives homework, but he does give one short quiz every week. He also gives exams throughout the semester. Attendance is not mandatory and it is almost impossible to fail his class!
Bro Marrott is an awesome teacher! Really funny, even during tests! Super helpful. Genuinely cares about you, and getting a good grade. Online quizzes every week. Tests every other week. Don't have to go to class, lecture is on power point! Never took psych and never found an interest in it, but he seriously makes it so your excited for class!
Devon Marrott is hands down the best professor I've ever had. His personality allows him to bring together everything from humor to deep philosophy into his lectures. That, along with his insightful opinions regarding the nature of psychology and his own personal experiences was incredibly inspirational to me. I would highly recommend his class!
Great professor but gosh it can be a difficult class!
My favorite teacher of this semester. Everyone Loved him. He knew his subject well and knows how to teach it. Lectures are clear and easy to follow. Tests are simple and straight forward, just be sure to study the PowerPoints he provides. Fairly easy class, but studying for tests is required.
Love the way he runs the class. Doesn't take attendance but there are questions on the test that were only discussed in class, not in textbook. He's absolutely hilarious and worth taking. Only grades are from quizzes and tests, if you study you will do well.
Brother Marrott is a great professor and he definitely knows what he's talking about. He is very humble and if he doesn't know the answer to a student's question, he admits it. Attendance is not required but you should definitely go to class. Most of the test questions come from what he says in class, not from the reading in the book.
Brother Marrott is the best! He makes class fun and helps explain things really well. I would recommend him to anyone.
He is a pretty good Professor. I really do enjoy his class but his exams are extremely difficult. I have been using a tutor and I still feel like his exams are too challenging.
There is no study guide and the power points he uses are pointless unless you write down everything he says. He lets too many people talk and then rushes the last part of the lecture. He goes over too much too quickly and its hard to understand. Tests are difficult but he curves them. He will help if you ask but it doesn't seem like he wants to.
Bro. Marrott is the best! I loved his lecture. Super easy to understand. He made learning Psychology super easy and if you study for the test you will have an easy A. He also gives our amazing reviews for the tests.
Brother Marrott was hilarious. He made psychology very interesting to me. He used powerpoints to teach and the tests were based off of the powerpoint. The tests were pretty difficult but he added some humor in the tests. The tests also had stuff in it that we only discussed in class so make sure you go. If you thoroughly study, you should do fine.
Brother Marrott's class is extremely straight forward. If you read the chapters, take the quizzes, attend class, and actually study for the test, you'll be fine! Some of the material on the test is only covered in class so attendance is important. There is no busy work involved. Your grade is based solely off of tests and quizzes.
Easily the best teacher that I have ever had. If I could have him teach every one of my classes I would. He understands what you are going through in life and can offer help If needed. He takes the time to answer questions and isn't confusing. The best teacher.
Brother Marrott is an AMAZING teacher. He is such a good guy. He knows a lot about psychology and he makes it so fun to learn about. He is hilarious so get ready to laugh until it hurts. His exams aren't hard unless you study. He doesn't try to make them hard and confusing. He also puts humor in them to make you relax. He's the best!
One of the best professors I have had. Super chill and fun
Brother Marrott is an AMAZING teacher! He is prepared everyday and is very educated in Psychology. When going to class get ready to laugh just as much as learn. He does expect you to read the chapters before class, but that just helps you in the long run. Study and you will PASS- tests are not hard nor confusing. He is SO Great!
I LOVE Brother Marrott. Get ready to laugh because he is probably one of the funniest people that I know. I love how he turned Psychology into something enjoyable. Your grade is based on quizzes and tests and if you study for them, you should be fine.
He is a wonderful teacher. He is really funny, and definitely wants his students to succeed. For the final exam he practically gave us all the answers. He is an amazing teacher!
I LOVED Brother Marrott! I had to drop his class because it wasn't required for graduation, but I enjoyed him! He is funny, and honest (he won't lie if he doesn't know something). He did just graduate, but he better relates to students. I would easily recommend him to ANYONE and take one of his courses again!
awesome teacher! really cares about his students. Since we are in a church school he really ties in spiritual matters with the class but not in an annoying way! He is always cracking jokes which makes you want to pay attention because if you don't you miss why the WHOLE CLASS is laughing! His tests can be hard. I mean we are in college...
HILARIOUS!!! Makes lectures extremely interesting which makes it so much easier to learn this tough material. Best psych teacher I have EVER taken!! Take his class I promise you will love it!!! Frequent tests but if you pay attention during the lectures you will pass easily. No homework only quizzes on each chapter which are open book and on ilearn
Exams are hilarious, but he asks a lot of questions based off of lectures. Go to class. Ask questions. Study hard for his class. Great teacher, super funny and sarcastic. Makes awkward subjects approachable and interesting.
Brother Marrott is awesome. Read the textbook and study it and you will get an A. The quizzes require effort. Do the reading. I have had some really wonderful conversations with him and he is just an awesome dude. Put in the hard work and you will get a good grade. But you have to do the readings.
Excellent teacher. Hilarious. Makes his lectures entertaining and enjoyable. Not a lot of extra work besides a quiz once a week. I would recommend taking him. Fantastic teacher.
Bro. Marrott is a BOSS! He is really a great teacher and he goes out of his way to help you get through the class. I would for sure take him again. He helps you understand the material and remember it by the stories or examples he tells. He is young and can relate to the students. Amazing teacher!
Brother Marrott is the the funniest teacher I've ever had. Class is SO engaging and very interesting. He splits up the tests so there are only two chapters on each test which is very helpful, but there are about 6 tests per semester. He gives great examples to help you learn the material.
Bro. Marriott is the funniest and most inspirational professor I've had. Lots of participation, and he makes class super interesting! He makes it very realistic and applicable. He keeps the quizzes and tests open for a long time, but won't accept late work. If you put in a little bit of review in each day, you don't need to worry. He is the man!
He doesn't try to pretend he knows everything. If he doesn't know something he lets you know. He makes you think and he makes you work for your grade but doesn't have group projects, papers, or individual projects. If you read the chapters and take good notes in class you will do well.
He is such an amazing teacher, You can tell he loves psych a lot and is very passionate. His lectures are really interesting and give you a lot of insight that the book doesn't. You have to read the textbook to pass the exams but its not to hard because it's so interesting. He can rant a little but you'll enjoy it for sure.
All I can say about Brother Marrott is that he wastes SO MUCH TIME. I stopped going to the lectures because I feel like I learn more staying home and reading than going to the lectures. He likes to show weird and irrelevant youtube videos and it's frustrating because he is wasting class time. Only tests and quizzes, no papers. Avoid if possible
Such a respectful, gentle, intelligent, amiable, and fun Professor! I wish I could take more classes with him! He is simply fantastic! He talks about all subjects and never loses what he believes or who he is. I can even forget the reading we need to do to prepare for his lectures. There was not one class that I did not laugh and learn.
I absolutely love brother Marrot, I think he is the funniest professor that I have ever had. I love the examples that he uses in order to help us understand the material. I also love how understanding he is, he curves the test if too many students do poorly on it. The only thing is that there is a bit of reading to do each week.
I really enjoyed this class! Bro. Marrott is so funny!! He is very passionate about what he teaches. He's a lil hard to reach outside of class, but if you shoot him an email he will respond. Doesn't take attendance but if you want a good grade in this class then don't skip. He prepares you very well for exams. You have to take this class from him!
Brother Marrott is kind and considerate. He is more than willing to help students with anything during or outside of class. You can tell that he truly cares about his students and their learning. He is wonderful at explaining concepts and giving examples so they are understandable. He is funny and makes the subject interesting and a great teacher.
Brother Marrott is one of my favorite teachers I have ever had. I would take his class over and over. He is young, funny, and very personable, so he is able to communicate easily with students. His classes are just lectures, but it's the only class I actually don't want to miss because I enjoy it. The lectures help a ton with exams.
Brother Marrott is an amazing and hilarious teacher because he is passionate about what he teaches and genuinely cares about us as students. I would highly recommend him because he facilitates high performance in the class by creating tests that are straight forward when you come to class and take notes as well as keep it entertaining and fun!
This text book is the worst textbook I have ever used in my college life. It doesn't explain things well enough. When I was taking quizzes, it's impossible to find answers (even tho I already studied it). Brother Marrott is a great guy. He makes class so much fun. Hope he will come back to BYUI to teach in the future.
Brother Marrott is an amazing teacher! He is so great at bring the spirit into class and I wish he taught other psychology classes! If you come to class test are super easy because he covers all the material.
So I took this class from another Professor and got a D, I took it from Professor Marrott and got a B plus! he has great lectures and uses power points which is super helpful. His test are not too difficult & he doesn't hand out busywork. Just study for the tests and you'll pass. He's an excellent Professor & I would take another class from him.
One of my favorite professors on campus. He cared about the students personally, he always made you leave class wanting to be a better person, and help someone else in need. This class made me want to apply what was learned, to my life. Great teacher. Hilarious! Very entertaining! I looked forward to going to his class! Only has tests and quizzes.
Taking psychology from Brother Marrott was a very good experience. He is hilarious and his lectures are highly relevant to exam questions. More than anything, you can tell that he genuinely cares about his students. He shared many heartfelt personal experiences that have left an impression on me. 10/10 would take from him again.
Aside from being super straightforward, Brother Marrott is hilarious. Simple, read the chapter, go to class and study for tests and you will do well. His tests are super funny too. I've burst out laughing in the middle of the testing center. There's good Q&A and he conveys the material clearly. He uses good
Brother Marrott is great! Psychology is often a darker topic, but Brother Marrott often finds ways to relate it to the gospel. Plus, he's an excellent teacher. It was a super interesting class. Definitely worth my time.
He is such an awesome teacher! He is young, and I think that's one of the reasons why he can relate to his students. He knows his stuff pretty well. He is also hilarious! Sometimes he will bear his testimony in class and it's really awesome! Even though he already left the school, I hope he can come back someday!
Brother Marrott is one of the most amazing professors I've taken a class from! His lectures are deep, but humorous. He understands students better because he's younger. The coursework is definitely something you have to work on. I'd absolutely take a course from Brother Marrott again!
Brother Marrott is one of my favorite professors I've had HANDS DOWN. Think LDS Josh Gad. He is very hilarious and teaches Psychology in a clear and interesting way with lots of real life examples. His tests aren't too bad as long as you study. Quizzes about once and week and tests are the only grades. TAKE HIM!!!!
Brother Marrott made this class so fun and interesting. He applies it to normal life which helps so much. Lectures are mostly just outlines so if you're not in class, you'll miss a lot of material. He has you read before class to prepare which is helpful. Study, take good notes, show up on time, pay attention and you'll do well.
GREAT PROF! He is so funny and has a lot of great ways to teach psychology. Some people might get offended by some of the things he says but they need to get over themselves because he doesn't intend harm. Quizzes and tests are the only grades. Go to class and study and you will be just fine. You will love him. I BET MY KNEE LENGTH SHORTS ON IT!!!
Bro Marrott in my opinion is one of the best professors at BYUI. He genuinely cares, wants you to learn, is flipping hilarious, and is realistic about life. If you don't study for his exams, you'll probably get a B-C. If you study, his exams are pretty clear cut. Learned the most from his class. Highly recommend taking him.
OH MY GOODNESS! Brother Marrott is the funniest guy I've ever met at BYUI. If you have the opportunity to take from him, do it! You won't regret it. He is an amazing professor.
Brother Marrott is an amazing teacher. His lectures teach the material really well and adds a bit of spiritualness to them. The only thing in the grade book are open book quizzes and exams, but he always puts in some freebies on the exams. Everything on exams is based off lecture, so be in class. HE IS SO GOOD, TAKE HIS CLASS RIGHT NOW.
Brother Marrott is hands down an amazing teacher. His class is fun, interesting, and all around a really good learning experience. His test are really easy but you do have to know the information. He teaches with a passion and adds his personal opinion on things and also brings the spirit into his conversations which I love.
Brother Marrott is my favorite teacher. He makes his lectures so interesting. I never wanted to skip class because he made it fun. He is a great guy and wants his students to succeed. You need to make sure not to skip class, because some of the stories and examples he uses arent on his power points, but you will be tested on it.
Such a real professor, seriously my favorite professor on the campus! His lectures were given in way, you wouldnt forget what was taught. He made the learning relatable in a way we could actually use the lectures. He ALWAYS shares his testimony and I LOVED THAT!! He was never afraid to say you know, I dont know, real teacher!
Alright listen here, you're scrolling past tons of great positive reviews, take the hint dingleberry. Let me get to the gist of it. I busted a gut laughing literally every day, without fail. His lectures are focused and interactive. You are a literal doorknob if you allow this opportunity to pass you by, take this man's class. Bless his heart.
Brother Marrott was seriously one of THE best teachers I've ever had. He makes you want to attend his class each day. He's hilarious and if you go to class in a bad mood, it's almost guaranteed you'll leave in a better mood. He's always open to feedback and wants each student to succeed. He has an amazing testimony and will share it with you often.
He is a typical college professor- just gets up and lectures, but his lectures are AWESOME! He never shies away from a question and always is willing to admit when he doesn't know. Getting a good grade just depends on how hard you study! Unfortunately I had to drop due to health concerns, but I would definitely take him again.
Brother Marrott wants you to succeed. His lectures are hilarious and very informative. I felt as though I left his class not only understanding the basics of general psychology but wanting to be a better person because of the concepts he taught. You do have to work to get an A, but he sets you up for success.
Brother Marrott is incredible, definitely one of the best teachers I have ever had. He cares so much for his students and is always wanting to help. He is knowledgeable and makes his lectures so interesting! He is hilarious and does not assign busy work. Highly recommended!
Such a good class and such a good teacher! Make sure you attend, he gives plenty of freebies on his tests. The tests are the most important part of the class so work hard, study and be an active participant in lectures and youll learn something new and interesting everyday.
Bro Marrott is a really awesome teacher I took Psych 111 from him and it was my favorite class He is really funny and very engaging It is easy to learn from him His whole class is only graded by quizzes based out of the textbook and exams that are 100% based on lectures so if you can't really miss class He puts jokes in his exams and it's great!
Honestly, taking his class is the best decision. He has upwards of 400 students each semester, and sometimes 4 classes in a row teaching the exact same thing, but he still keeps everyone engaged! I'm pretty sure that his inspirations are Jack Black and James Cordon. 80% exams, 20% quizzes - one per week on the reading. He's hilarious, but rational.
He's a good teacher. I went to several different classes that he taught on the same subject. It honestly depends on who is in the class and which participates more. The more people talk the better discussion and you learn so much! He's very funny, keeps it really spiritual sometimes. Loves to answer questions.
He sometimes says things that some might take offense, but he really tries not to. He's good at getting the class involved since its just a lecture. He doesn't grade the test off the book, its off his lectures so BE at class. The lecture is fun if people participate so you wouldn't want to miss anyways.
Brother Marrott is a great professor! I enjoyed going to his lectures because he was funny and he made psychology to understand. His tests are heavily based on his lectures, so make sure that you attend, even though he doesn't take attendance. I would definitely take a class from him again!
Brother Marrott is AMAZING. His knowledge and applications of that knowledge is unreal. He will help you understand and retain psychology concepts I think better than anyone else could. DONT SKIP CLASS because the tests will be KILLER. But he makes it way easy to want to be there.
Brother Marrott is awesome! He definitely know what he's talking about. He teaches concepts through examples and real world applications. He bases his tests off of lectures so go to class!! He knows how to keep you interested and enjoying what you're learning. He doesn't accept late work but drops the 2 lowest quizzes. Take his PSYCH111 class!!
best teacher ever. invites the spirit and gospel discussion, you have to attend class, but he makes you want to because hes hilarious and gives you test questions.
He does things all in good humor, but his policy happens to be overly strict on late work and extra credit. No assignments can be made up. Nice guy, would recommend. 7/10
Brother Marrot was hilarious. Didn't end up getting a good grade, but I was still fascinated by everything he taught. His tests are pretty tough if you don't study or don't show up to lecture, but they're so funny sometimes. He's super nice, he can be blunt sometimes but I enjoyed his honesty!
He teaches to prepare you for exams, which is awesome. You need to go to class to get some answers on the test that won't be in the textbook. He makes class enjoyable because he's hilarious. Like all PSYCH111 your grade is based on quizzes and exams. If you take good notes and go to class; you'll do great!
Brother Marrott is a great teacher! You read a chapter and take a quiz every week. He will spend about a week covering a chapter in class. He is really good at teaching what something is and then giving real life examples to help you remember the concepts. The tests are based on class so go and take good notes and study them and you'll do fine.
Quizzes count for 20% and exams count for 80%. Coming to class is super important. But all in all, Brother Marrott is an outstanding professor. A captivating, talented teacher and stellar person. Great lectures. He is sincere and honest, an absolute riot (not a day goes by where I don't laugh), deeply spiritual. Take this class! You will not regret
I would recommend Professor Marrot to anyone who actually wants to learn about psychology. He is a fantastic teacher who is passionate about what he teaches, he makes it so easy to love the subject and enjoy learning it.
Dont blame the teacher if you cant finish your assignments before it's due. Tons of kids were saying that because of COVID19, they didn't know how to follow the instructions to do hw. You are a senior and you are expected by now to know what school work is like. Look at the syllabus; it's all there. Good teacher!
Brother Marrott is an amazing teacher that I'd recommend to anyone! He really knows how to engage students and make the subject interesting, even more than it already is. He's also really funny as well as inspirational. If you attend class and study for the tests, getting a good grade isn't too hard. Take his class! :)
He's funny and all, but the course material SUCKS. The readings he hands out are WAAAY too long (it takes me an entire DAY to finish one chapter). Too much information is given and the tests are based a lot on memorization. You're given very little time to finish the readings and the tests/quizzes, which cuts into your study time for other classes.
Read and prepare for class and youll do great! Pay attention during his lectures and dont just copy his slides, put it in your words!
I absolutely loveeedddd this class. Brother Marrott always had us laughing and I learned SO many interesting things! I would 100% recommend him, but you have to be willing to work hard. Write down everything he says in lectures and study all of your notes and you will do really well. Seriously, I love him and I HIGHLY recommend taking his class. :)
SUCH a good teacher. He is very fun to listen to and really knows his stuff. Tests are worth 70% of your final grade and heavily based on lectures so you need to be willing to go to class if you want to pass at all. He was a great teacher though!
Brother Maria is a sarcastic teacher in a good way. His grades are for the quizzes after textbook reads and he spaces out his tests every two weeks and they are non-cumulative. Hes a very good teacher and I would recommend him.
Brother Marrott is an amazing and funny professor, TAKE HIS CLASS! His lectures are amazing and insightful. Everything in his lectures is on the exams. There is an easy reading every week. He is good at answering questions and explaining topics that you don't understand. He is very straight forward and gives extra credit opportunities too.
Brother Marrott is literally my favorite professor of all times! His lectures are so enjoyable and if you pay attention, you will do great on the tests because theyre 100% lecture based. He is an amazing guy, super willing to help with your school and personal stuff. I have no words to describe how satisfied I was with his class. Please take him!!
Brother Marrot is so amazing!!! Definitely would take his class again, although the class is not mandatory, highly recommended to go, you will love the class and be sad that you missed out on those notes! He is so much fun, and he makes learning fun!
Brother Merrit is an AMAZING teacher. He make it fun to attend class. He is really funny and uses real world examples to help us learn. You should definitely take his class if you have the chance
Great Teacher
Brother Marrott is a funny dude. From day 1 he'll stress how he makes exams only from the powerpoint. Don't be fooled... do the kind-of mandatory reading and take the open book unit quizzes so you understand material. Then enjoy the omnipotent powerpoint slides and free exam points from written-in jokes.
I enjoyed his style of teaching, it is more about applying and understanding the material. This is harder than memorization, but is so much more meaningful. I recommend study groups, taking good notes, and actually doing your work. Even through zoom, this class was engaging!
Brother Marrot is a really good teacher. He is more than willing to answer questions and he helps his students a good deal. His tests are really hard. The average score in my class for most of the tests was a C or C+. You also read a chapter a week so get ready.
Brother Marrott is a great professor! The way the class is set up you have quizzes (30%) on the reading material, and then exams. The exams (70%) are based solely on his lecture, so make sure to take great notes. If you figure out how to study and study diligently you can get a good grade in the class!
Bro Marrott just didnt seem to care about the success of his students. He had humor in his lectures, when he opened it up to student feedback, he literally explained away why didnt do anything that we recommended would help us to learn. Not impressed with his teaching method as you have to memorize his lectures to do well on the tests.
Brother Marrott is THE best psych teacher. He is funny and smart and has very interesting lectures. He gives you one quiz a week, based on the textbook material, and the exams are based on his lectures. As long as you take good notes and do well on the tests, you will be fine. Try and make a study group. You want him as your psych teacher, trust me
Brother Marrott was honestly one of my favorite teachers. His exams are strictly from his lecture so make sure to go to class. Exams can be tough if you don't study but he explains everything very well. His lectures are detailed and honestly, he gave so much great information. I would definitely take his class again!
By far my favorite class this semester. This class is spiritually uplifting and Brother Marrott is a fantastic teacher. The class isnt an easy A but you learn to love psychology and grow from the hard work
Brother Marrott is an amazing teacher! He is very passionate about psychology and gives very interesting lectures. He does not give you any busy work. You just have to do readings in the textbook. All of his tests are over what was taught in class so attendance is important.
Brother Marrott has you read the textbook but he does not test you on it, only on what he teaches in class. He does not take attendance, but if you miss class, you WILL miss something he will test you on. His only assignments are weekly quizzes on the textbook reading, other than that, it's all the test. But his tests are very doable if you attend
Brother Marrott is AMAZING!His lectures are never boring, and he is good at explaining concepts. If you write detailed notes during his lectures and study them, you will do fine on the test! Every lecture he included the gospel which I really loved. This was a very spiritually uplifting class, and it helped me develop a love for learning again!
I am a tutor for PSYCH 111, I didn't take his class BUT all the students that were suffering & stressing the most came from brother marrotts class. The worst part is he didn't give study guides or record his lectures so it was hard for me to figure what the students needed to focus on studying. A 101 (111) CLASS SHOULD NEVER BE HARDER THAN A '3'.
Brother Marrott was a great professor, I had him my first semester and it was mostly over zoom, although I feel in person would be a better option if it is available, he was still great. He doesn't give any busy work which is super nice, all your grade is based on is quizzes and tests.
Bother Marrott is cool. Let's be real, everyone needs to study in order to get good grades. His tests are based on lectures, not the textbooks. The tests are HAAAAAAARD so you need to write down everything he says and study it. So many students complained about the tests. You will fail if you don't thoroughly study. No study guides.
Brother Marrott's class is all lectures, quizzes, and exams. No discussion, no projects, no written assignments. All students struggled with his exams. Overall an unfun experience. 3/10, would not recommend. People say his humor makes the class worth it. Idk, he's funny. I'd prefer more engaging coursework and well-planned-out assignments.
Love Brother Marrott. When I took his class I took really good notes and always felt that everything on the test was covered in class. Theres a lot of material covered, because psychology is a vast topic. He tells some really awesome stories. He really does want his students to succeed and if you make the effort to know him you wont regret it
Brother Marrott rocks! He has strong knowledge of psychology & a wonderful personality. On the flip side, his exams are impossible. The only resource you have to study is his PPTs. The information in the PPTs are for his teaching recall. e.g. (Number 1 predictor? -Lost). If you do not take perfect cookie-cutter notes then your chances are slim.
Great guy. Lots of energy and zeal for what he teaches. Bit of a liberal, though. ;)
He is so funny and really loves what he is teaching. I think it can be hard, but that is psychology in general. If you put in the work, GO TO CLASS, create a study group ( this helped a TON! we did quizzes together) then it won't be too difficult. I also love that his final is worth just as much as every other test. He's an awesome teacher!!
If you have a different option I would take it. This course is full of lectures that do not pertain to the exams in the slightest. With vague rubrics and harsh grading this course was not enjoyable. If you like to pay money to listen to someone talk about something other then the tests I would take this class, otherwise find a different Professor.
Brother Marrott is an amazing teacher! I absolutely love his teaching style which he doesn't make you memorize definitions, he used a lot of examples and The Network Attribution Theory. Your grade is heavily weighted on exams (70%) and 30% on quizzes, I recommend recording his lectures because that's where all the test info comes from.
Brother Marrott is an amazing professor and knows what he was talking about. I learned a lot but be aware, his tests are based on his in-class lectures, which the slides are easily available, but he goes in way more depth on them in class. He is hilarious and makes class worth attending!
I loved taking General Psych from Bro. Marrott! He's hilarious, easy-going, and full of knowledge! His class is mainly based on his lectures (you really need to go to class!) and the textbook. Study well and you'll do fine. Overall, he was amazing and I wish I could take another class from him!!
Taking this class 7-10pm was hard, but I enjoyed it so much. It was no where near as bad as I thought it would be.
Great professor always full of energy. Someone who I was shocked to see who can stand and teach straight three hours of class with no one getting bored. Amazing talent but the exam is tough to understand Especially if someone has second language English It might seem difficult not my career path took it for general class requirement Take 7-10 class
Super great teacher and very great class. I took it from 7 to 10 pm and was pleasantly surprised to find it to be one of my favorites and most educational classes. Definitely worth my time and any student who is willing to pay attention.
Professor Marrott's class was a great experience. I took the 7:00-10:00 PM class and loved it. It is nice to only go to class once a week and the lectures flew by as they were very interesting, had great discussions, and were filled with humor. This class is easy to get a good grade in if you go to class, take notes, and do the assigned readings.
I had his 3 hour night class from 7-10 pm once a week. I was worried I would have a hard time concentrating but Brother Marrott is engaging and cracked jokes the whole time. He knows when things are confusing and clarifies well, he wants you to understand. The class was hard work but extremely rewarding. Take notes, pay attention, and study :)
I had his class once a week for three hours between 7 and 10 pm. His class is based on lectures, there is an open-book quiz every week, and closed book tests every other week (they each cover 2 chapters) If you pay attention, take good notes, and know how to study you will do well. He prepares you well for the tests and sometimes he curves them.
Brother Marrott is a good guy, and he is a good lecturer. But I didn't feel like he really cared about the success of his students. I asked him for help a few times and he pretty much told me he was too busy and I was on my own. The tests are hard because they aren't necessarily from the textbook.
I think brother Marrott is such an amazing teacher who truly cares about his job and does his absolute best to make sure the students understand the material.
Brother Marrot has a great sense of humor, but a really strict your grade is your responsibility policy. This is an introductory class but it contains a lot of information. The teacher will help you, especially if you come prepared to class.
What I wish I knew: He is heavy on tests and doesn't give you information to study from except notes you took in class. Test questions are super specific to what you learned in class Can't see what you did wrong on the test Can't reach him outside class His philosophy: generals should be your harder class because you cover so much new material
Brother Marrott is so real and isn't afraid to talk about hard topics, which I LOVED. He also has very interesting and engaging lectures. The only complaint I could think of is he has no tolerance for late work, which is fine because there aren't a lot of assignments to keep track of.
Grade in class is about 70% off of 6 tests given throughout course. Tests are purely based on lectures. No study guides, no help given from him to study for test. If you do well on tests and can take good notes, class is good. If you struggle with either of those things, don't take it from him. P.S. No assignments are given besides one weekly quiz
EXCELLENT prof. 7-10 class is awesome. "lectures" never boring, dry, or anything like typical lectures. TIPS Attend EVERY lecture, have a backup for notes for absences. Take comprehensible QUALITY notes on the principles, examples, and key phrases discussed Exam prep: Be able to teach the material to someone. Come up with your OWN examples
Pretty funny teacher. I wouldn't take his class again, because his exams are all based on his lectures, so it is hard to know what you should write down when taking notes. If you don't get distracted easily and you're good at taking test then I would take this class from him. He's an okay teacher, I just didn't match well with his teaching style
Brother Marrott is the best professor I've had. His teaching style focuses a lot on being able to apply the information learned. He lectures are long but by far the most entertaining I've heard. He gives an exam every two weeks but as long as you take good notes in class you can pass them easy. I also recommend taking his quizzes as a group.
Brother Marrot is a great professor, He is awesome. His lectures are interesting and funny. When he says that exams are based purely off of lecture he means it. If you don't go to class and only read the text book you will not do well on exams. 70% of your grade is exams and the other 30% are quizes from the text book.
Brother Marrot has been by far my favourite professor so far. He teaches because it is his passion, and he really knows the material inside and out, and it shows. He is also a great person to chat with after class as he opens up a little deeper about the content. His class is super fun, just DO NOT SKIP. It is VERY lecture heavy!
I learned so much in this class! He is a great professor. He is test-heavy but tries SO hard to help you be successful. He really wants you to learn and do well. He is super funny and very kind. I think everyone should take his class because he is such a good professor! Definitely worth taking.
Seriously an amazing teacher and one of my favorites! He offers extra credit and curves tests which is VERY generous. He also drops your lowest 2 quiz scores at the end of the semester, seriously a phenomenal teacher who loves what he teaches. You need to make sure you attend lectures and take very thorough notes to do well on the tests .
I'm glad I took this class from him. Tests are based entirely on lecture so show up and RECORD THE LECTURES and you'll do well. Textbook is online. Exams every 2 weeks covering 2 chapters each, quizzes over textbook are open note/book and once a week. Offered 2% extra credit at the end of semester for scoring 70% or higher on an extra credit exam.
Hilarious and approachable professor. The first week after having this class I changed my major to psych lol. I would definitely take this class again. 11/10
One of the best professors I've ever had!! He is so funny and is able to make the topics make sense. Most of the grade is based on tests and weekly quizzes, so attendance does matter very much.
He is a very smart man. Brother Marrott gives amazing lectures and you learn a lot from him. You have to be in class because tests are not based solely off the textbook. Only critique is to make the tests on each chapter. He combines 2 chapters a test. There is a ton of content for every chapter. It would be easier to have the tests be each chapter
He is simply amazing! Firstly, you need to be present in class. Take good notes! Brother Marrott is amazing and 100% recommend his class. His is super clear on his expectations and how you succeed in the class. He teaches in a way that anyone can understand it and super clear and helpful on the material. Super funny and makes his tests manageable.
Brother Marrott is amazing! The tests are entirely based on lectures, so make sure you show up! I promise you'll never get bored! I had him for a 3-hour night lecture, and even into the late hours, he kept me incredibly entertained. He helps you see the many applications of the class in your life! TAKE HIM! YOU WON'T REGRET IT!
I loved this teacher! He is so much fun and helps you understand the why behind everything he teaches. He obviously loves the subject witch does a lot to motivate his students. He does not take attendance but he tests off of the lectures not the book. There is also only 6 exams the whole year.
He is amazing! The subject that he teaches is interesting and he makes it even more so! He's not afraid to admit when he doesn't know something, he shares stories that go with the information, and he is genuinely intrigued about the subject he teaches. It's a college class, and be ready to take good notes, but don't be afraid of this professor!
Marrott is one of the best teachers I have had in a while. He is a lecture-based teacher and then has you read an online textbook chapter each week to take a quiz. He is honestly hilarious, fun, and a great teacher. I have taken a lot from this class and actually used it in my life. 10/10 would recommend
Brother Marrott is by far one of my favorite professors! He is hilarious and very clear about how he grades. The class is lecture heavy, however, if you show up to the lectures and take really good notes you shouldn't have trouble succeeding. If you get offended easily or hate hearing the truth Brother Marrott is not the professor for you.
Brother Marrott is the best PSYCH professor on BYU-I campus. He teaches to the needs of his class and meets the needs of individuals if they are struggling. He is funny, interactive, caring, and he teaches in a way for psychology can be rememberable. I would highly recommend this professor.
I recommend Brother Marrott all day every day! His lectures are fascintating and he is so so caring! His tests are based off the book and his exams are based off of his lectures, so GO TO CLASS! He gives freebie questions during class! Bro. Marrott loves his class and loves teaching! TAKE HIS CLASS!
Showing up is more important than excessive studying outside of class. Taking notes and reading the Powerpoints is a majority of the studying you'll need to do. His TA does grade really tough on some of the assignments but all you have to do is bring it to his attention and talk to him about it and he'll change it.
Brother Marrott really cares about preparing you for grad school. he pushes you and it is a 400-level class so it is hard work. however, the information is important and he tries his best to relate it to real-life experiences. his teaching style is easy to understand. he wants to help you, so use those office hours if you need help.
This is the class that made me want to go become an IO psychologist. If it weren't for this teacher, i'd have no idea what I wanted to do with my life. Bro Marrott is a PHENOMENAL teacher and so easy to learn from. It's a tricky class, but he makes it so interesting and worth learning from.
The content taught in this class was by far one of the most interesting in my college experience. There are very few assignments submitted for the class, but the ones you do weigh heavily on your grade. Grammar and APA are a MUST KNOW for this class. Marrott is kind and always willing to help his students succeed, even if they don't see it.
Brother Marrott is a funny and personable professor who cares about his students. His expectations for students are high but reasonable, he cares deeply about teaching useful material, and every class is both fun and informative. Does an excellent job of explaining what an I/O psychologist does and teaches principles that will help in any career.
Brother Marrott was awesome! It's very important to go to class since he bases the exams off of lectures but the content we learn about is great and Brother Marrott is very knowledgeable and funny!
Bro Marrott is awesome! He can be a bit hard on grading papers, but it's because he wants to prepare you for grad school. He puts in the effort to learn everybody's name and he's willing to hear your concerns. Exams are based on class material, so it's super important to go to class; luckily he makes class pretty interesting!
Attendance is important and worth it for this class. There are pop quizzes on the readings, which are not difficult if you actually read. The exams are based on his lectures, so take notes. Bro. Marrott is a good guy and his class was engaging enough for me to attend every lecture with no regrets.The only assignments are papers, exams, and quizzes.
This class is super interesting, and the lectures are great. There are a couple papers in this class that require time and effort, but Brother Marrott was more than willing to meet with students and go over papers. You can tell he really cares about his students!
He is hilarious! Cracks a lot of jokes, but is real with you. He really cares about students and their success. He asked us several times if we felt we were getting what we wanted out of class. One of his goals is to prep us for graduate school and our future careers through this class. I've taken two classes from him and would take more!
This professor's style is difficult, but highly impactful. His lectures are funny, informative, and inspiring. If you believe high quality learning is worth the challenge, than IO Psych with Brother Marrott is for you. He is a caring mentor during his office hours, helping me with class material, professional development, and a faith crisis.
Amazing at lecturing. I am giving 1/5 because I think 5/5 is a little high for him. His tests are extremely difficult. If you struggle with tests and want an A, DO NOT TAKE THIS FROM HIM. Stuff that will have nothing to do with Psych will be on the test about his own life, testing memorization skills. Tests need reworked desperately.
he is the worst
Professor Marrott is great for students who excel in memorizing large amounts of material. The exams are 70% of your grade and they are highly difficult, especially if you are not locked in during lecture. The literal only grades we have are exams and a small percent is made of weekly quizzes. He has a very real and straightforward approach.
Honestly, if you don't take him for I/O you will regret it. If you ask he will help but if you don't help he can't read your mind. He is a homie. If you control all the things you can control, it is an awesome class.
Gives real life examples and information that really helps you understand the class more. Gives amazing lectures and all the information given in class is valuable. Awesome professor all around!
Brother Marrott is a really good professor. He loves his job and you can tell. I have actually learned a ton in his class. He gives really interesting lectures that make time fly, often I am shocked that class is over. If you show up to class, do the readings, take good notes and get your assignments done you will succeed!
Brother Marrott is one of the more kind hearted professors I've ever had. He makes class interesting and is eager to hear from his students, he doesn't just lecture the entire class. He also gives real life examples which honestly gives the class discussions a lot more depth and understanding! Do the work, you'll do fine.
He is such a good professor who cares about his students. Tests are pretty difficult and there's very specific answers from lectures. If you don't show up to class and take good notes, you won't pass. He can be controversial if you have differing opinions than him when it comes to religion/parenting/social things but it made things interesting
he is one of my favorite professors! he really cares about your career and he makes sure you understand the topics and loves feedback. you will get pop quizzes so beware
The tests are HARD, but he gives all the support we need to succeed. He is very knowledgeable and gives real-life examples of the topics we are studying. He is kind and supportive. Bring printed copies of the slides to class and take good notes of the lectures. Bro Marrott appreciates respect, class participation, and feedback.
Bro Marrott is a great professor! His class is very interesting and very informative about I/O if you don't know anything about it. He was new when I took him and was still deciding on the format of the course. I find his tests challenging, it is a bit hard to try to figure out what to study. His tests are focused mostly on the lecture, so show up!
Best professor ever, and I am not joking. Fantastic lectures, I mean it. He makes every topic in the semester fascinating and fun. He does not like to use definitions but rather applies the concepts to real life stories and scenarios. He will make you laugh in class and during the test!! He genuinely cares about his students and he demonstrates it.
I love Brother Marrott. Probably one of my favorite professors ever. Lectures aren't mandatory, but if you miss the content you will not succeed on the tests. Very funny lectures and super fun. Invites the spirit and relates religion to the subject extremely well.
Brother Marrott is one of the best professors I have ever had. He gives really good lectures and makes the content clear so that you can understand all of the material you need for each exam. His exams are based off of lectures, not off of the textbook, so attendance is really important. He is super funny and he cares about all of his students.
Brother Marrott is an amazing professor. He knows the material and teaches it in a way that helps students understand. He incorporates the gospel into his lectures and invites the spirit. He makes lectures interesting and fun. You will laugh during class and during the tests. I would definitely take his class again.
Brother Marrott is amazing. There are basically two types of grades in his class, a quiz once a week and an exam. He is a great lecturer and teaches exactly how professors should teach. He gives real-world applications and whether your grade reflects it or not you WILL learn. He teaches that an overall grade does not matter as quantity learned.
AMAZING professor, would 100% take again. The work is limited, you have a textbook assignment once every 2 weeks. The exams are all lecture based, so make sure you pay attention and take good notes! All his lectures are engaging and entertaining, and he does an amazing job at incorporating spiritual aspects into the lessons.
I loved Brother Marrott. Not only did I learn a lot about psychology, but I learned a lot about life. I was able to understand things about myself and others. I love how he includes the gospel very often in some of the lessons. Overall, I really loved this class
Brother Marrott does a great job lecturing in class. However, there were times we had to speed through the lectures because we got off topic. The tests were difficult because we're told to study what's marked red on his powerpoints but some of it was not on the exams and info that was not marked red was on the exams. Hard class, awesome person.
Brother Marrott is a nice guy and his lectures are nice. Sadly a lot of things on the lectures are not on the tests. The tests are very important and if you do not attend the lectures you will fail. Very hard class and do not highly recommend
Brother Marrott is an incredible introduction to psychology. He is very knowledgeable and has a unique perspective. His lectures were engaging. The tests were not easy and heavily based on the lectures but as long as I paid attention and took notes I was perfectly fine. Your grade is almost entirely based on the tests though so make sure you study.
Brother Marrott is so good! I always enjoyed his lectures, he makes them enjoyable and very educational. I learned so much from his class. He is by far one of the best professors I have had. He is clear with what information you need to know. Exams are based off of his lectures.
Bro Marrott is awesome! Lectures are insightful, entertaining, and interesting! He is hilarious and knows what he teaches and is amazing at explaining or clarifying if asked. He cares about his students and relates things to the gospel. Weekly 30Q quiz on the textbook and a test for every 2 chapters on the lectures. Go to class and take good notes!
I had to retake this course 3 times due to life complications, and I could have picked any other teacher for General Psychology, but I was determined to have him as my teacher. As long as you set the time aside to do the quizzes (I recommend doing them the week before) attend class and take good notes, you'll do great! Find a study buddy!
Bro. Marrott is awesome! His lectures are the best. I'm not a psychology major but I'm going to miss his class. As long as you take good notes and pay attention, and take the weekly quiz outside of class, you'll do fine. You'll love him even more if you're a movie buff. Fascinating subject, great professor.
I liked how this class was set up. The reading was required to be done before we discussed it as a class (2 exposures to material), and studying for the exam gave a third exposure. That really helped the information stick. The class is very lecture heavy, but I do feel the lectures and material studied really prepared me for further classes.
Professor Marrott is great! His lectures are super engaging, and he makes psychology really applicable and interesting. Be warned, he is a pretty tough grader, you need to know the knowledge inside and out to do well on exams. Attendance is everything in this class, everything he says in class is on the test.
Bro Marrott uses an interactive online textbook. You do the quizzes with it. You can skim through and do well in the quizzes, but the info you learn supplements the lecture material. He's a great teacher to take, whether you are taking the class as a gen ed or a dedicated psych major. Also, he's very funny and answers questions after class.
Brother Marrott is awesome, this class is extremely lecture and test heavy but if you show up and take notes, you'll pass. He is hilarious and relatable and tries his best to accommodate you and help you all he can. Attendance isn't mandatory but it would be really hard to pass if you didn't go. If you can, take this class from him!
Brother Marrott does a great job in brining real life examples and experiences he has had into the subjects we learn. It makes this class feel real, and very applicable to future careers and professions. He is hilarious, and super nice. Tough assignments and exams, but just hard enough to help you learn and master the material.
Bro. Marrott is awesome. Super funny. Attendance is a must. Tests are based off lectures. Quizzes are based off the reading. Those are your only grades: tests and hw quizzes. You have 1 research participation assignment during the semester thats an easy A. Do the readings, go to class, take good notes, study your notes, and you'll pass no problem.
Professor Marrott is hilarious and really knows his stuff. He explains the concepts of his class well and honestly I enjoyed his class more than any of my other classes this semester. In his Psych 111 class we read a chapter every week and exams were based on class lectures. It was a great experience and I'd recommend it to anyone.
"Too much of any virtue becomes a vice" thats his fav quote and he will say it a lot! Attendance is not recordered but if you don't go you will not pass. Test and quiz heavy. those are the only grades. he's super funny and gives fun free point questions on the exam. great intro to psych teacher. if you need tutoring go to the ta.
Go to the lectures. They are funny and the tests are lecture based
Marrott is a pretty great teacher. Good at getting laughs, and covers reading material well. The tests in this class are lecture-based, but sometimes you'll get thrown a few exam questions where you'll be completely stumped. Typically fell just short of an A with most exams. I think he likes to hear himself talk sometimes, but mostly bueno.
I was given a special exception to take this class when I did, it was a great idea for me but this class is not the easiest, the exams are all from the lectures. The papers are not terrible and in hindsight very helpful. I would be wary of taking this class if Thomas. H is his TA. If you work hard you can get an A- or an B+ but it takes work.
Great Professor, helps a lot and gives study tips
Brother Marrott made psychology interesting to study. He is very engaging during lectures. Overall his class work is slim, there is an online textbook with a weekly open-ended quiz. His exams are heavily based on his lectures, so it will be much harder to know what's on the test if you don't attend class.
This was one of my favorite classes. He teaches in a very engaging way and keeps you interested. This is the one class I looked forward to the most, even though I didn't do the best in the class I learned more from this class than any other course I took this semester.
Brother Marrott is the best! You will need to read for his lectures and exams are all what will be discussed, TAKE NOTES! and you'll be fine, and he explains the topics clearly and don't be afraid to ask questions, he will answer and clarify.
Brother Marrott has been by far the best professor I have ever had. He is truly amazing and cares deeply about his students and their success. While the course is very lecture-heavy, if you take notes and record the lectures, you should do well. Brother Marrott always adds humor to his lectures and is very engaging and easy to listen to.
Brother Marrott was a great start to my education as a psychology major! he makes the tests fun and the lectures even more so. The tests go over more of what he talks about in class as opposed to the textbook, so attendance is SUPER important. Make sure you go, and you won't regret it!
Great, great professor! I enjoyed our lectures, and he ensures you are prepared for the tests. Probably my favorite psychology professor yet! Also, he has great taste in shows, movies, and music.
Brother Marrott explains everything very well and brings in great examples and relates it to real life situations. Not many grades get put in (only quizzes and exams) and its only based on info from the lectures but as long as you pay attention in class and take notes, as well as study them from time to time, it's very easy to do well in the class.
I loved his Psych 111 class. The lectures were inspirational and engaging, he was able to keep the whole class engaged and interested. I just really appreciate his teaching style and his willingness to have discussions. I would 100% take this class again, loved it so much!
He talks like a human. His lectures are fun and interesting, but can get very heavy at times. He gives really good life advice randomly during classes.
Brother Marrott is my favorite professor I have had as of now. His lectures are amazing and not boring. He teaches the material in a way that just sticks, especially if you use the powerpoints to take notes on. Everything on the exams is covered in the lectures, so being in class is "mandatory".
Brother Marrott is probably the best teacher I have ever had! His lectures are so engaging and interesting and I always feel spiritually lifted in the class! The tests are based on his lectures so make sure to come to class. Seriously the best class ever and highly recommend. Not only did I learn psychology but I also got lots of great life advice!
Everything on the test is from his lectures, so the book is more mind preperation then actual learning. That being said, his lectures are great! Easy to listen to, easy to follow, easy to understand, and you can ask questions. His tests are also filled with basically free questions. NOT A FREE A THOUGH! He tries to avoid grade inflation, so be wise
Cool guy, spiritual and passionate. He did refuse to reopen a quiz that was glitching for most students. Textbook (not his) is poorly written. HE CURBS EXAMS!! I learned a lot in this class, but he did make some harmful claims without evidence.
Brother Marrott was amazing! The only homework was an open-book textbook quiz for each chapter; if you use the tutor before the tests, you will succeed! You can tell he really cares for you and wants you to succeed! Highly recommend using him as a professor!
Very engaging in class and wanted to hear questions from students unless they took too long or we were behind on the lecture, then we were not allowed to ask. He seemed like he was only interested in doing the bare minimum and everything was directed to his TAs. He wasn't interested in talking to students outside of class to figure out problems.
Brother Marrott was probably my favorite professor during my first semester. Every class he does a lecture with his slideshows and you are responsible for taking notes. They're not boring lectures though. He is always making us laugh and has super strong insights on the gospel. The only homework is textbook reading, a few quizzes, and studying.
Brother Marrott is an amazing professor and friend! IO Psych is also a super cool class that could benefit literally anyone of any major.
He referenced his rate my professor in class, so I had to write this. He is super funny and has an awesome understanding of the subject. He lectures straightforwardly and realistically. If you neglect the outside-of-class assignments, you will fail. Can't find anything to complain about Bro Marrott. I wish he taught more classes.
I loved taking this class. I would take it over and over again if I could. Brother marrott makes the lectures and learning engaging and fun. He makes it easy to get a grasp on the topics! 10/10 would recommend
Great professor but very hard to get an A. His tests are very difficult. Lots of reading for homework with a single quiz each weekend. Homework is manageable but takes some time each day. His grading criteria is 30% quiz and 70% exam. Only take this class if you're very good at taking tests and taking notes based on lectures.
One of the greatest professors and teachers you will ever have. He is so tuned into the students and teaching clearly and simply. His lectures are AMAZING. I have a hard time with lectures, but I loved going to class. You have to listen well in class, but if you take good notes and take the time to study, you can earn an A.
The lectures were good and Brother Marrott is a super charismatic teacher. Make sure to attend the lectures, the exams are based on them.
A great professor! Lectures don't feel like lectures because of the way he teaches and he is very helpful if you're struggling and understanding. I definitely recommend this class and would take it again.
he was so nice and was so insightful. one of the best teachers i've ever had.
By far one of my favorite professors. He tells you test questions if you come to class. Attendance isn't mandatory, but you should go to every class to do well on the exams. He gives you free questions on the tests. He makes the content fun and easy to remember. Great professor, highly recommend.
I loved Bro. Marrott! His course was lecture heavy- we had a quiz on a chapter in the textbook every week and a test every two weeks, but no busy work. As long as you take good notes in class, study them well and show up to class you'll pass. His lectures are very engaging. No extra credit opportunities.
Bro. Marrott is AMAZING! I would suggest him to everyone! His lectures are very interesting, and topics often relate to the gospel; he's very inspirational, funny, and caring! It takes hard work to prepare for his tests, but he includes fun things to make you smile. Brother Devon Marrott is probably one of the best teachers you could ever take!
Brother Marrott is awesome! He does everything he can to make the class interesting and provides all the resources you need to succeed.
Has clear and fair expectations for his students. He is engaging in class and has the best stories to share for every topic. He teaches mostly through lectures. There is a large literature review, but he walks you through the steps so it is not as overwhelming. He loves his students...bless his heart ;)
He cares a lot about the students. He puts a ton of effort in his classes and he's honest.
I would recommend this class to anyone and everyone! Brother Marrott loves and cares about his students. His lectures are amazing and he brings gospel insights into the classroom in a powerful way. Lectures were daily, open note quizzes weekly, and tests every 2 weeks (note card allowed.) Take this class!!!!
I loved this professor, there were no assignments except for participation in one case study of the upperclassmen. you read a chapter of the textbook every week and are quizzed on it but you really only read it for context. exams are purely lecture based so it's highly recommended that you go to class and take notes but he doesn't take attendance.
Bro Marrott is a great professor who has a passion for teaching. His class is fun and interactive and he is great at tying in gospel principles to what he teaches. The text book is required for the home work but does not apply to any of the test except the final since he doesn't fit the entire last unit into the lectures. He curves most of the test
This professor is one of the best ones that I have had here at BYUI! He knows how to bring the gospel into every one of his lectures and makes the classes fun. The tests are not hard as long as you go to class. He gives some of the answers in class and allows you to have a 3x5 card in all of the exams. The final is not comprehensive as well.
If you pay attention to his lectures you will do great. He is an amazing teacher and really cares about his students. I would take this class again just for fun.
Tests can be confusing if you don't study, so prepare for them thoroughly. Attendance is not mandatory, but if you want to pass, go to class. He is the best professor I've taken a class from so far. I highly recommend him!!!
Brother Marrott has been one of the greatest teachers I have ever had! He is so funny and explains things so well. All his exams are lecture-based, so make sure you attend class and take lots of notes. There are also tests that are taken through the online textbook. There really isn't any other work for this class.
Amazing professor, engaged really well with the class.
Marrott is the best! He is genuine, makes his lectures fun, and teaches great skills. I'm not a PSYCH major, but I recommend his class to everyone! You'll read the textbook and take a quiz after each chapter. The quiz is due before class, but he lets you use the textbook on the quizzes. His exams are based on anything he says in the lectures.
Brother Marrott is great. I took Psych 111 and my grade consisted of 30% textbook quizzes (a chapter a week) and 70% exams (based on the lecture unless he says to study something in the textbook). Attending class is essential to passing, but he's not a difficult professor. His lectures are very entertaining and class is a lot of fun. Solid 10/10
Brother Devon Marrott is an exceptional teacher in PSYCH111; in fact, he was by far my favorite teacher this semester. His ability to relate Gospel topics to secular topics is very inspiring. He is genuine and understanding in his approach to teaching Psychology. Be prepared to take good notes. Exams are 100% focused on lecture and class.
Marrro is the
Brother Marrott is funny; he just goes on a lot of tangents, which sometimes won't be on the test. But he really does care about the students. His tests can be pretty difficult, and really, those are the only grades in the class besides quizzes, but if you come to class, study, office hours and tutors, you can get an A.
He does any amazing job of teaching difficult material. He often tells stories that relate to what is being taught, and I found that they're very helpful in understanding the material. He is very clear with his expectations and makes sure to answer everyone's questions (if time allows). I am so grateful to have taken this class with him 10/10
I really enjoyed his Psych 111 class. He goes on tangents a lot during his lectures but you still learn the material. The online textbook is about $80 and it's used for the reading quizzes. You get tested on two chapters at a time on the exams, which are in the testing center. There is no final though.
This was honestly the best teacher I have ever had. You can tell he is passionate about the subject as well as very knowledgeable. I can not stress enough, if you get a chance to take a class from him do it. Its a lecture focused class but its easy to follow and he is patient with us and makes sure you understand what he is teaching. Great class!
He is so insightful
Brother Marrott is so passionate about psychology so if you pay attention in class and study normally, you'll do well. He is intentional about looping everything back to the gospel. That being said, sometimes he goes on long tangents but you'll live. Honestly you'll cackle taking some of his tests because he incorporates a lot of humor.
I needed Psych111 for nursing and it wasn't a topic I was super interested in, but he made it interesting. The tests followed what we learned in class pretty well, and we were allowed small note cards which I always packed tons of info onto, which helped me lock in information and stress less for the tests since I could check lots of my answers.
Incredible professor. Pragmatic, charismatic, and intellectually versatile. His rules are very no-nonsense because he is usually teaching a few hundred students per semester, so don't expect exceptions on grades or emailing him about late work. Otherwise, one of the most enlightening classes I've ever taken, and it was because of Bro. Marrott.
Brother Marrott was genuinely one of the best professors I have ever had in my entire life. He makes psych SO interesting. Im a bio major but I was interested in class every single day. He genuinely cares about you and wants you to succeed. Quizzes are open book and you get a notecard on tests. BEST PROF EVER!! take him!!
Brother Marrott is amazing!! His class is very lecture heavy, but he is so good at what he does. He makes the lectures fun and engaging. He is also hilarious and sarcastic. Overall such a good professor. Make sure to take notes and study the book for the exams, the only homework you have is taking an open note quiz based off of the readings.
bro. marrott IS a nice person, but the way he tests is egregious. why am i being asked on a book title he mentioned once and never again, the results of a game show video, random trivia he dropped? what does that have to do with psych? he unnecessarily overcomplicates psychology, a class that IS easy. class averages were always C's before curving
PROS - memorable lecturer - Relates Psychology concepts to the Gospel EVERY CLASS! - He cares SO much about you! MEHS - Grade is ~70% based on (non cumulative) unit exams. This means you need to take good notes, and review them before & after every class. If you do this, you can do WELL!! If you don't know how to go to study skill ctr TAKE HIM!
Brother Marrot is so funny and caring. His lectures are super interesting and based on the exams. EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW IS IN THE LECTURE. Grades are mostly based on exams: there are 6 unit exams and no final. Additionally, there is hardly any homework, and he offers extra credit. TAKE GOOD NOTES and you will pass!!
Skip class? Won't pass. Attendance isn't mandatory, but it is built into his lectures. He'll say "x is on the test, y is the answer," and if we weren't there, we didn't know. Things about bull sharks even. His lectures are amazing, engaging, entertaining, and enlightening. It is not not clear what should be studied for the exams
Amazing Professor. Very funny, entertaining, and cares about students' education.
