Great teacher! Definitely recommend! Great teaching style!
Kind vague. But worth the price of admission. Very helpful!
No Comments
great teacher..easy class..study notes from class a little and you'll get at least a B for sure...easy tests, common sense.
You may not need to buy the book for her class if you keep up with the lectures. Very hard to get lower than a B in this class. Don't take makeup exams, they're hard! Very personable teacher, is willing to work with her students - enjoyable classes!
Test are kinda hard but stright forward from text or lecture... A LOT of extra credit
Great professor, very well organized, no out of class homework, very clear and concise, works with students, gives alot of extra credit, it's hard not to get an A or B in class. Don't buy the book, everything is covered in the lectures, just study notes.
Very nice teacher, easy to understand. Interesting videos!
really easy n nice teacher... i had her class over the summer... no need to buy the book bc she goes over everything u need for the test n if u need the book she puts it under reserve in the library. very helpful. there was 5 writing assignment.
I had her this summer, she was great! Very nice and works hard to make sure that you are clear on information. Recommend
This is by far the BEST professor I've ever had!!!Take notes,Take notes,and Take notes,and study them then you should have troubles getting an A. Anything not mentioned in class would not be on the exam!I've learned a great deal and got an A+.
Very nice and easy teacher! She goes over everything that is on tests. I hated psychology before I took her class. She makes it very interesting and relates it to us all.
with a little effort you can ace this course. she's funny and nice. she's cute too. too bad she's already married.
So clear, great test reviews and tons of extra credit !
Easy material, interesting projects. She mumbles sometimes (what professor doesn't?). Not anal on attendance, very understanding but anal when you don't show up for the exam. She's a doll ;)
AWESOME TEACHER.... AWESOME CLASS!
She's a great teacher, I wish I could take her for all my Psych classes!!! Her lectures are outlined in handouts; she is clear and to-the-point and welcomes questions, discussion. Easy tests and lots of extra credit opportunities!
SHE IS THE COOLEST TEACHER ULL EVER HAVE. SHE WILL TRY HER BEST TO HELP AND HAVE YOU EARN A GOOD GRADE . TAKE HER CLASS.
She gives lots of extra credit, tests are sort of hard but she tells you what the essays are. Well organized class with cool videos. Very nice and helpful.
She writes all the required information for the tests on the board, so you barely need to read the book. She is clear in her expectations, and her homework assignments (1 per chapter) are actually fun to do.
Great teacher who is very organized and clear on her expectations of the class. I actually look foward to going to this class! You learn a lot.
smart, relaxed teacher who only asks for the necessary and does her best to get the main points across.She's organized and simple, but can sometimes drag a little. NOt a class you have to make it too all the time, just make sure you do the reading.
The class is is not demanding. If you are able to relate the material to your life, then you will really enjoy the class. Take good lecture notes. She is very organized. She is really easy to talk to during her office hours.
Her tets are directly from the lecture. I have had her twice and never bought the book. Tests are not hard if you go to class and take notes. Sh welcomes open discussion and is laid-back. Much more interesting to go to class then read the text.
Just go to class and take notes on her lecture. All the answers on the test are straight from calss. I've had her twice now for different classes and I never even bought the book and I got an A because I attended class. very clear and wants you to lear
Lovely woman, and good teacher. Little effort needed, as long as you come to class.
Great teacher, simple subject. If you listen and take efficient notes, you'll never have to read the book. Don't forget to do the extra credit.
Great teacher, simple subject. If you listen and take efficient notes, you'll never have to read the book. Don't forget to do the extra credit.
Go to class and this will be a breeze. Her lectures are enjoyable and she is very clear on what she expects. Awsome and enjoyable class. I highly recommend her!!!
She is a good teacher, gives extra credit on chapter reviews, take good notes and you should do fine.
She is the best teacher i have ever had! very organized and efficient, makes sure everyone understands the material, and is always willing to help you. Take her if you get the chance
She is a great teacher, very organized and always willing to help. Take her any chance you get. Her tests are very fair and all from class lecture.
Her testes are hard but the projects are easy..she is very nice and tries to be funny
Awesome professor!! if your going to take a psychology teach at mesa try and take this one!!
AWESOME teacher!! wants everyone to do well, and willing to help afterhours and her quiz adn tests are easy and more multiple choice than equations. my FAV teacher so far.
A fairly boring lecturer who doesn't always appear to have a solid command of the subject. That being said, she's a rather easy grader who gives a lot of leeway and extra credit. The quintessential community college prof.
she really tries to work with you needs! She has everything laid out and really clear. She is a great teacher!
Easy going; tests are tailored to her lectures. Home projects are involved but doable. Just wish she would not drop the volume of her voice when she nears the end of a sentence. Makes for good learning overal.
She is great. Willing to help!! Very nice lady, interesting and straight forward lectures. Take good notes.
Wow...really cool Prof. Never met a prof, who offered so much of her time to help students. TAKE great NOTES...capture everything, cause you can bet its on the Exam. Get in a study group right away. Do your best to get high scores, cause sometimes she'll off to cancel your final...:D Yeah!!!
She's a wonderful teacher and makes things as understandable as possible. Willing to take time out of her way to help her students. Exams are mostly based on Class Notes so Take GREAT NOTES! Optional to Purchase Book. Highly Recommend Her
Wonderful teacher. Take this class if you have the opportunity. Expectations are very realistic.
she's very nice! great professor, took 4 different courses w/ her. they were all interesting
Miyoshi is a great teacher! She makes her material for the tests very clear and the tests are relatively easy if you study. Take good notes ...they help! lecture notes can be used for test and then a little reading. very interesting class
she is one of the best teachers i have ever had. she is totally willing to give up her free time to help you, so just ask. everything in the lectures is on the test, and most of the tests are conceptual. i highly reccomend her if you had struggles in previous math courses.
My favorite teacher at Mesa yet. Treats everyone fairly and as adults (which is surprising hard to find). You will have to work in this class,just showing up wont get you an A, but you couldn't pick a better teacher for this class (Behavioral Stat and lifespan dev.).
really cool, lay back, easy going. explains things perfectly, doesnt require you to read outof the book.
She is the best teacher ever! Everything she discusses in class is in her exams. Her homework is actually fun. Her exams are multiple choice and she always offers one class before as study time which is also counted as extra credit. Just show up to class and take good notes. She gives random extra credit so make sure you show up!
She is an awesome teacher. She is very sweet, helpful and clear. HEr test are not hard if you attend class all questions are from lecture and video clips. She responds quickly to emails and is willing to help you
Very nice lady. Class is lecture style. I suggest buying book b/c her lectures and notes aren't very thorough. Tests are standard mult. choice. Gives one research paper.
Excellent professor. Very laid-back and easy-going. Does not give you homework or busy work. Very clear-cut tests. Either you studied/or paid attention in class, or you don't. No trick questions.
Best math teacher ever! She is very helpful, she even gives you her cell # so you can call her anytime you need help. Homework is short and not too hard because the answers are in the back of the book. Quizzes are hard. Test are kinda hard but she lets you use a whole page for a cheat sheet. All her notes are on powerpoint and are very clear.
She is the best math teacher I've ever encountered! Don't get me wrong, this class is HARD...but she will give you every opportunity to learn the material. I have never been a great math student- and I'm managing to get a good grade. Take this professor. You definitely won't be sorry.
The subject is sooooo hard but Miyoshi is probably the most helpful, nicest prof at Mesa. She does everything to help you succeed! She has review sessions separate from class if u want 2 go; she gives you her cell #, SHE IS INCREDIBLE!!!! She is teacher of the year/decade. If you have to take STATs 2 transfer- take MIYOSHI
As long as you remember what a z score is, you'll be fine.
I loved this class! You do have to work hard though; I've taken a few classes with her now and never got anything over a B. Her notes are on powerpoint which is nice and she does give extra credit, tests can be a bit tricky. But the project was very easy..overall I enjoyed this class :)
GREAT TEACHER! loved her. take her!! :)
she's the best. take her, add her class early tho, and don't drop u numbnut, she will totally help u! take advantage of her office hours.. totally professional, totally knowledgeable, and yet still very down to earth and friendly. offers u all available resources to learn, and gives study guide reviews for exams. tought subject, she got me thru!
dont get the text, didnt use it once, and i took honors. easy class for honors credit, she's easygoing and lets you design honors assignments. go to class b/c ALL info is from lecture. follows syllabus very closely. 5 exams mult.chioce w/ 2essays each-she tells you what they are on, no suprises. random extra credit chances in class. take miyoshi =)
She is a great teacher! Her tests can be a little tough, but with the right studying, you'll have no problem. The material is interesting too! I would take her again if I could!
Best teacher ever. Hands down
Awesome teacher. Extremely organized, intelligent, and helpful. Funny at times, too. She is also quasi-hot. Dresses very well and her smart, yet commanding demeanor makes her attractive.
I love this teacher! I have taken her for three psyc classes. She is very smart and has a great sense of humor. Class is fun and always interesting with discussion and sometimes videos. Know the study guides and take notes, easy grade. I will take her again in the fall.
Miyoshi's class is less than entertaining with difficult tests and little opportunity to bring your grade up. BUY THE BOOK. She claims that most of the material on the tests are from lecture but it's straight from the book. You will not do good in this class without studying the material in the book. 5 hard tests, 1 easy project. Don't take.Period.
She is such a good teacher! All you have to do is show up to class, and take good notes, and pay attention to the film bits and storys used as examples and an A or B is in your future! Her tests are exactally from the notes, there is never any trick questions. as for help, just ask and she has all the anwseres you need! I STRONGLY Recommend her
Excellent professor! VERY organized and clear lectures. Writes everything on the board, so attend lecture and take good notes and you will do well. If you do this, you do NOT need to buy the book! One easy project, and offers in class extra credit. Really, if you attend lecture and study your notes, it should be an easy class.
Excellent professor! Extremely organized and cares about her students. The class was very interesting! It is not the type of class you can ignore all weekend, though. It's hard! Stay on top of it and get all of the extra credit points you can! You can call her on her cell phone if you have questions! She is wonderful! Highly recommend!! I got an A!
she was a great teacher. i learned so much from her class and had a lot of fun. i loved how she used power points with everything and its really hard for you to fall behind in class. i rarely used my book and if u study ur notes youll do fine
she's really good
ONE OF THE BEST TEACHERS IN THE WORLD! I took her 101 & 258 class & got A's in both. If you come to class ready to learn the material, participate, ask ?'s, & do xtra credit u should do well! Great teacher, understanding, helpful and resourceful! Always on time, prepared, and ready to go! Kind of teacher I'd like to have for every class I take!!!!
Great prof. She has clear powerpoint presentations backed up with great notes on board. I had to drop her class just before the deadline even though I had a good grade, and when I took it with another prof they were so horrible I ended up just using all my old notes from her. Know study guides, tests are right off of them.
Professor Miyoshi is the best! She is helpful, fun and a passionate person who loves to help students. Exams, and quizzes are all covered in reviews. By not taking Miyoshi class, you are definitely missing out!
she rocks. notes are easy to understand and take down, and if you don't get them or miss that day you can email her and she will email the powerpoint presentation to you along with any homework or info. very nice lady, seems passionate, helpful. I highly recommend her, she's the best prof I've had yet at mesa.
Excellent Professor!Very well organized.Always willing answer any questions you might have.This was an interesting class.If you are taking Psychology her class is the one you want.
Miyoshi is one of those teachers who is EXCITED to teach about her class. She has passion during her lectures and that is what a teacher should have. She is by far the BEST teacher at Mesa and you MUST take her class. She is always at her office if you are in a need of hand if you are struggling or just don't understand. Wonderful personality!!
Awesome teacher-- very helpful and thorough! Probably one of the best if not the best professor at Mesa College. I'd love to take more of her classes!!
BEST TEACHER EVER!! She's very helpful and makes notes easy to understand. It's a bit challenging but she gets you interested in the subject. I highly recommend her
Mrs. Miyoshi is definately one of the best teachers I've had. I took psychology in highschool and hated it. After taking Miyoshi's class i had a new found interest in psychology. She does powerpoint presentations for lectures and makes it VERY clear. She happily answers questions and WANTS you to understand it. STUDY GUIDES HELP!
Awesome professor definately a must take class with miyoshi.
Very good teacher! Passionate about psyc. Fun & easy homework assignments. She gives outlines for her tests a class before(very helpfull). And every other class gives students some snacks. MUST TAKE!
Such an amazing teacher. I love her. So easy to understand she goes over everything perfetly. You do have to study for the tests, but she provides what will be on them. Also gives lots of extra credit I love her!
Mrs. Miyoshi, is quite simply, the bomb. Her classes are fun, with powerpoints and videos. As long as you take notes and study them, it is SUCH! an easy class! Homework is interesting &simple, and tests are 50 question multiple choice. She gives great review sheets before each test: if you study them, you'll nail the test. I can't wait to take 258!
AWESOME. Simply awesome, yes?
Most helpful teacher!
I was scared out of my mind to take this class but she made it so comprehensible to EVERYONE. Line was out the door to get enrolled to enroll early!!! Nice lady best teacher at Mesa and thats not said lightly!!!!! you can use a full 8x11 sheet of notes on tests!
Mrs. Miyoshi is quite possibly the best teacher at Mesa! She is helpful and smart and funny and just generally nice. 230 is a pretty easy, interesting class with lots of discussion, not just her lecturing. If you study her outlines, the 4 exams are cake. I'm in 258 with her too and she is just as good for stats! Highly reccomend her for ANY class!
Amazing professor. Teaching style and testing style make it very interesting yet easy for students. If you follow her outlines that she hands out and take notes in class, you don't need the book. Speaks clearly, is helpful, knows her stuff, and is passionate. Absolutely recommend this professor.
Awesome prof. Her exam study sheets are helpful. She gives a lot of extra credit and the tests are multiple choice. You don't need the book, but if you don't get it, you must take really good class notes as Power Points are mainly bullet points for what she discusses. There is a class project,it wasn't hard. Dr. Miyoshi is one of the best profs!
Dina Mioshi made psych stats possible for me. Professor Mioshi is the best and most supportive person I have ever met. She made what seemed so impossible, totally possible. If any student takes the time to go to her office hours she will totally teach one on one if needed. You have to put in the effort but if you do she will teach you amazingly.
Talk about one of the best teachers ever. She is extremely helpful. Statistics is hard, but she breaks it down that any person can understand her. Spent hours helping me out during class, office hours &even through the phone. She's extremely patience and absolutley so nice! :)
She'll help you no matter what! She's amazing, & understands that most people aren't math experts, so she teaches for them. She'll go over anything you need until you understand it. She even set aside time for everyone to come to a special class time, just so we'd understand anything we didn't before finals. Offers lots of Extra Credit! :)
She is the best! I am finishing her class right now and she is the best skilled and enthusiastic teacher. The book is mandatory to study. It does take time but there is extra credit to earn and attendance helps.
I just took her class for credits, but it was really so interesting, the only class i actually looked forward too, her tests are based off class notes, didnt use the book much, homework was interesting and fun, LOTS of extra credit. without a doubt the best prof. i have had.
Professor Miyoshi is an incredible professor. It is clear that she really cares about her students success. If you need help she is more than willing. I didn't use the book at all. We had hw online and a quiz every other week...4 tests. U must go to class! She offers ec in class only and it adds up. Not a hard class at all.
I hate math and anything related to it; however, I was able to get through this class without jumping off of something, because Dr. Miyoshi is amazing. She is extremely dedicated to her students' success and understands the class is hard and not for everyone. She goes to every effort to help you comprehend the material and pass.
She's a fantastic teacher, she extends her office hours, gives plenty of opportunities for students to ask any questions if they need help clairifying something. I hate math, but she tries to make it as least painful as possible whiel still getting you to learn:)
Very VERY helpful. Also teaches stats and I'm told she's awesome there too! Anyway her tests weren't hard, straight out the study guide and her class was pretty interesting. They should have more teachers that care about your opinion like she does. Take this course!
The best teacher I've had in college, period. She's a GIFT to Mesa college. I hope Mesa appreciates what a positive they have in her. She extends herself beyond her courses, goes WAY beyond to help students understand. Her teaching style is clear, and offers a variety of ways to learn. She incorporates technology into learning well. Take her.
Dina's stat class was tedious, but she makes all the difference in the world. She's clearer than clear on explanation, tons of extra credit you'd be a idiot not to take adv of. And shes not boring. Snag this class up!
Took her developmental Psych class and she is an awesome teacher, lots of extra credit opportunities. Gives you a chance to voice your opinion and communicate with classmates. Cares about what her students think and is interested in what we have to say. Asks a lot of questions that get you thinking. Amazing teacher!!!!!
Very nice & helpful teacher. Always after the best for her students and wants you to learn. You have to be tedious and understand the material because they build off each other. SHE IS VERY HELPFUL AND SUCH A GREAT TEACHER!!!!!!! I WOULD DEF. RECOMMEND TAKING HER!! I don't like stats but she helped me receive a B.
Was not enthused about taking a morning class, but it worked out. The class is not just facts but critical thinking of the underlying concepts-(on tests too)so it is effective but be prepared to write. lots of extra credit for in-class writing. Good teacher but a lot of estrogen in the classroom for my taste the class is female dominant
THE best teacher I have ever had. She made this class so interesting and crystal clear. Lots of material to cover but attend her lectures everyday and you usually get extra credit for the in-class assignments. I wish all teachers at Mesa were like her!! Very helpful to all her students.
The best psych. teacher you could ever have,if you want to learn pysch. learn it right with this teacher she's awesome.
Easily the best teacher I've had at this college. Shes really clear in her lectures and the tests are fairly easy if you just copy all of the notes from the powerpoint. She's also really organized and you only get like 4 homework assignments all year, and no papers!
Hands down, best professor at mesa. would not have gotten an A if she hadn't been teaching this class. she makes it very easy to learn for such a hard subject.
GREAT TEACHER! One of the best Math teachers I've taken at Mesa college. She is extremely helpful and willing to work with you to help you do your best. There is one pg of notes allowed for every exam and let's you know what will be on exams. Highly recommend taking Prof. Miyoshi =)
Amazing, what needs to be said has been said. One of the best teachers I have had.
Great teacher. The only thing I could complain about is the way her lecture notes are set up. The notes are too shorthanded and not enough definitions.
such a great teacher. she is helpful, and clear. hes explains everything so well. she explains things so it is easy to understand. gives you lots of practice with the material. very nice lady.
I just took this teacher for Psych 258: Behavorial Statistics. She is a very sweet, helpful teacher who understands not everyone is interested in Statistics. The material is not super easy but she explains it in a very helpful way. So much extra credit its not even funny. Take her! She is a very good teacher.
Excellent Professor. Presents the material in a way that is really easy to understand. Realizes we don't all want to be statisticians, but helps make the material relatable. Good sense of humor, very helpful (above and beyond). Class is very passable, keep up with the extra credit and study PPT's and you'll be fine. Enjoyed this class a lot.
She is an uber nice woman, and will give her students every opperutnity to succeed, whether extra credit during class time, extra credit on quizzes, putting her lecture online to print out & follow along with, homework answers online for review, review packets. The cheat sheet she lets you have at the test a bit much, didn't feel like I earned it.
She's very clear with what you need to do in the class and she sticks to the syllabus so she's consistent. Having said that, being consistent can also be a bit boring. I wish she had broke away from the powerpoint more and had a bit of fun with the material...classes were very predicatable. Try some video clips, fun group activities, etc
I took a hybrid class, but you only had to go to class for the 3 tests and if you wanted extra credit (the class before the test). 7 Hw, gives study guide for tests and posts all notes online for psy259 & psy258. Is extremely helpful, she has office hours & responds quickly to emails. For the students that are good with stats it is mainly online
Best behavioral sc. stats teacher. I got an A without buying or reading the book. Lectures are about power points. Up to 50 pts extra credit for which you basically just need to attend. Easier than normal stats class because you don't do longwinded manual calculations--only what cocerns psych. You can use a page of notes front & back during tests.
Best stats teacher. Hybrid class. You can do it all online or all on campus or both. You have to buy a $40-80 computer program which is not very user friendly. She makes the class super easy though. Homework is how you really learn to use the program through power point slides. Class meetings for clarification and extra credit opportunities.
AMAZING teacher! I took her a few semesters ago for Statistics. She was knowledgeable, helpful, on schedule and patient. She makes herself available to her students, even giving out her cell phone number to the class, telling the students they can call/text her anytime with questions, even late at night. HIGHLY recommend!!!
MIYOSHI IS AWESOME! I was so afraid to take this class cos many ppl say it's extremely hard. But honestly, if you take psy 258 w Miyoshi, you will deff at least get a B. She gives extra credit frequently and all the review worksheets and practice problems are so helpful. Exams are like the review worksheets. I LOVE THIS PROF!
Best stats professor I have ever had and I mean that. I highly suggest her as your stats professor. 100%. She deserves a raise.
She is a really good teacher. She gives plenty of opportunities for extra credit and there isn't a lot of problem work required. I would recommend taking her for the psych259 the lab portion required for Psychology majors looking to transfer because they courses flow together since she teaches them both.
not only the best stats professor, but BEST professor Ive ever had! no joke. she is always willing to answer questions and is available. she gives a TON of extra ways to get points, I got almost a 100% in the class. I highly recommend going to class everyday, its so helpful and she explains things in a way that everyone understands. TAKE HER!
I'm horrible at math. I decided to take Stats 258 hopefully there was less math. And thank god i did! This lady knows her stuff. I remember I texted her the day before the exam and she responded with like a paragraph and I clearly saw what i was doing wrong. She wants everyone to pass. I have an A. And I'm the worst at math.
Miyoshi is a hero! I needed a stats class to fill my GE and my major. I hated Math in general & Math 119(Stats) and I dropped that class b/c of a horrible professor. She understands that everyone's not fond of math. And she is very helpful. And no matter how stuck or behind you are, she has great patience and will get you on track. 65% is a C!
Hands down, the best teacher I've had since college. She is super helpful and clear. I had to take this class as a GE requirement and I'm horrible at math, but Professor Miyoshi made math bearable for me, which is saying a lot. I even got an A in the class because she gives you extra credit that helps you understand the material. She's awesome.
If you need a math credit and you're scared of math, this is the professor and course to take. Miyoshi wants everyone to pass and understands student perspectives. This is a hard course, but she will help you no matter what and she is very accessible. And the interesting thing is that ZERO people dropped her class! ZERO! That's impressive! Take her
SHE IS ONE OF THE BEST PROFESSOR IN MESA COLLEGE! She is very helpful and take the time to teach you in her office hours. It is a difficult course but she makes it easy by the way she teaches! Again, she is one of the best professors!
Excellent professor. She is available during her office hours, and very passionate about teaching her students the material. Just be sure to attend every class, and do ALL of the suggested problems. Also, do all of the extra credit! Highly recommended.
Lots of theories and material. She is funny and has a sweet, sarcastic sense of humor. No HW, just tests and an interview project. Very warm, friendly and understanding of personal situations. Flexible office hours. A great teacher.
SPSS is a rather difficult program, but she made it easy. Classes are optional except test days but if you need help, you can come to class and do the HW and she is flexible with her office hours. She is very helpful and has a couple computers she lets students use for HW. She is the nicest, most understanding teacher ever. A very great teacher.
I have taken her for Developmental psyc and now for the stats lab. Honest, go to class. read the material AND her lecture slides, you'll do great. She's a mentor and a great prof. She does not like to see her student struggle and will pull you out of the bunch if she feels she needs to and you need help with ANYTHING. PSYC, SCHOOL OVERALL AND LIFE. She's a sweet person and very intelligent.
AMAZING. I'm horrible at math but she managed to make it very clear. Very helpful and helps students individually and is clear in her lectures. You don't really need the textbook as everything is on blackboard. Easy extra credit points, and lets you use cheat sheets on tests that you can fill with answers front and back. A MUST TAKE PROF.
Love her!! She made this class easy. She posts lecture slides, practice problems, hw, and keys for everything on Bb. Gives extra credit!! Do hw and extra credit bc it will really help you on the test! Lets you use a page (front&back) of notes on test. Gives out study guide. Tests have 2 parts (math and concept). I wish I could take her again.
Very sweet professor. Willing to help and answer questions in and out of class. No excuse not to do homework because she gives answer key online. Plenty of extra credit opportunities. Pay attention in class and study to do well on concepts for quiz and exams.
Such a caring and understanding person! She essay ways there if I needed help in person and emails . Very understanding about anything personal going on . I honestly wish I had her floral my classes !
Great respectable professor with a clear grading criteria. 4 Lab Assignments, 2 out of 3 SPSS assignments graded extra assignment for extra credit. Very helpful, willing to help, and clears up any questions. Lectures are very easy to read and comprehend, provides 2 tests with study guides and office hours.
Miyoshi is a great teacher, I was nervous about statistics but she made it so easy. She explains everything in detail and gives great review material for the exams. She also allows you to use 1 page of notes in exams which makes a big difference. She gives extra credit just for showing up. This class is more of a concept class than a math class
AMAZING professor!!!!!! she is a great person and extremely caring. I would definitely recommend her.
This course was difficult for me, but I managed to pass. She puts out all the necessary study material for each quiz and exam. No textbook required! She gives a lot of extra credit opportunities. Make use of office hours because she is always willing to help.
hands down the best class I ever took. If you have the option of taking either math 119 or psyc 258, only take psyc 258 and with Miyoshi!!! her quizes are hard and multiple choice questions on exams make you think, but she allows 1 page of notes for exams,and she grades quizes quickly, so you can study it for exams (similar/same questions given).
I enjoyed her class a lot. I never found myself dreading her class (i have social anxiety). She is really easy to reach out when you are having trouble. She taught the course in a way that was easy for me to understand (and i suck at math). I loved that she is organized and sticks to the syllabus. I strongly recommend! She's a gem.
Shrs really funny sometimes, she does everything she can so that you can succeed, extra credit is available and is quick to contact to! So if you're having a tough night doing the homework, shed help you out! textbook doesnt really matter, her lectures/slides are key!! she gives a page of notes for exams! love her!!
So the semester has ended and what can I say she is an amazing professor!! I had to retake stats 118 2x and dropped both times! I was given the option to take psychology 258 and I did. I wish I had taken her class two years ago and stopped waiting my time in another class. she is great at emailing you back, office hours, and gives extra credit!
Hard not to pass this class with the number of resources and help that she offers.
Dr. Miyoshi is a pro! I've taken tons of classes at various colleges and she has been one of the best. She is quick to grade, kind, available, and wants you to succeed. If you don't come out of her class without an A than you just weren't trying!
LOVE THE PROFESSOR! she is well organized & good at explaining your concerns! youre available to reach her at ANY time to help out but she doesnt anything for you to succeed sooo extra credit is given out. cheat sheet used in exams & lecture slides on BB,.. HIGHLY recommend her class!
Hands down the best professor I've ever had, she extremely caring and nice. I was failing the class and I spoke to her and she was so helpful. My boyfriend and I went to tutoring every other day and she was so helpful and made everything more understanding. If it wasn't for her I probably wouldn't have passed.
Miyoshi is such a kind and caring professor. I dreaded taking this course because it was math related but she made the concepts so easy to understand. She knows how to explain concepts in an easy and digestible way. Lab was the same and carried over with her lecture so take both with her. Free pie on 3.14. Take her if you don't like math. Fun/Easy
If you can, take her! I was nervous about statistics, math in general and she made it absolutely easy. She is very helpful and cares about you being able to pass her class. she gives you plenty of time to do the homework and gives extra credit and also lets you use a page of notes during tests. her class is relaxed and she's extremely nice!
Professor Miyoshi goes out of her way to help her students, she truly cares and wants to see her students succeed. One homework assignment per week, gives extra credit, you can use a page of notes on the exams, but not on quizzes. Textbook is helpful sometimes but her lectures are really informative. Super nice and easy to talk to, 100% recommend.
Great psychology statistics instructor who is awesome for her teaching style. Gives extra credit and gives you the option to attend office hours. Works well with DSPS students with any learning curve
Amazing professor. She has mastered online learning: one weekly optional lecture, one weekly optional office hour, and private zoom sessions any time targeted to individual students' needs. Quick to respond to emails and great feedback with thorough explanations on ALL assignments.
Professor Miyoshi was the best! I had her in a hybrid class and was afraid of taking an in-person statistics class, but she was very understanding! She explains the topics very well, and makes concepts easy to digest! If you're thinking of taking her classes, don't hesitate!
I absolutely adored Prof Miyoshi. You will never see her repeat an outfit and she is incredibly caring. I have never enjoyed math or been good at it, but she found a way for me to find it almost fun to complete the homework. She explains concepts incredibly well and will go over anything you need her to. Take her!!
She is such a lovely professor! I love every moment of her class lectures; she makes the math easy to understand, and had everything we needed for labs/assignments in Powerpoints in Canvas. She is easy to reach out to, and really cares for the students!
This professor is amazing! I would definitely take Professor Miyoshi again. It's honestly harder to fail this class then get an A. She gives so many opportunities to revive yourself. Tests are basically on her lectures, in class worksheets, and homework she gives us. Easy A.
When you see Professor Miyoshi has an open class, enroll immediately. You won't regret it. She is the only professor I am writing a review on to inform others how great of a professor she is. Homeworks are Tests are easy AS LONG AS YOU DO THE WORK. I am horrible at math, but this class made me feel really smart hehe. Got an A in both classes hehe
Professor Miyoshi is an absolutely wonderful professor. I can't recommend her enough. She is kind, respectful, & gives amazing feedback. I highly recommend her class, especially if you're nervous about your capabilities within math/statistics, she makes everything easy to understand, incredibly concise, and if your lost, she will help you.
Let me start by saying this was the 3rd time I took this class. I'm not statistics/math savvy and struggled with other professors but Prof Miyoshi was amazing at explaining it, was available to help outside class hours, and offered test corrections. If you struggle with math TAKE HER CLASS! I ended this semester with an A
I was so nervous for stats but she really wants you to do well. Her lectures were informative, she is so caring and an amazing Professor. While the material was difficult for me personally to understand she is happy to explain and go over things as many times as you need. Participation, hw and exam corrections matter. 10/10 recommend!
Prof Miyoshi is an absolute gem! She explains stats concepts clearly and makes the course manageable, even for math-phobes. unstuck AI was a great complement to her lectures. Definitely recommend this class if you want a supportive, engaging learning experience.
I went into this class really worried about stats but she makes it easy!! Professor Miyoshi is an amazing professor who really wants her students to succeed. She provides extra credit points and as for her tests, you can make corrections to make-up for points lost. If you're worried about taking a stats class, definitely take Professor Miyoshi!!
Dr. Miyoshi is amazing! She explains concepts super clearly and slowly and goes through lots of examples. There are quizzes but you can talk to anyone in the class for help on them. Allows an 8.5 by 11 in sheet of paper on exams, so a few practice problems is all you need to study, if your write your notes on the sheet.
