eccentric but an excellent teacher
likes to talk about himself a little too much, but overall a good teacher!
Had him awhile ago but he was so funny with his stories I still keep telling them.. A+++
great professor, interesting lectures
No Comments
This person is the Best profesor at the college. The only problem is he does not teach enough classes. His classes fill up very very quickly. There is not a better professor at this college !
Not only is he the best teacher in the school, but he is the best teacher I have ever had in all my years. He is a genius in all categories. There was never a question he failed to answer without truth. He remembers his students are people too.
Knows his subject so well he can answer your questions and refer you to relevant research, articles, etc., if you're interested. Prof. Mitchell is intelligent, funny, enthusiastic, encouraging - truly the best teacher I have ever had - never boring!
Interesting, funny, so try to get him for psych if you can.
Fun in-class exercises and his research stories help you recall the topics long after class is over. Only the chairs and the dimmest bulbs remain uninspired. Read the chapters 2x, take notes, show up, and you'll get an A.
A bit strange, but makes for very interesting class, very helpful, and goes beyond what is required of him as a teacher. also: class consisted of 8 tests - nothing else! easy!
Great teacher. Tells some bizarre stories, but it makes class very interesting. Very intelligent. Gives reviews for tests before every class - be there on time. Also, gives bonus points. A must have!
take him if you want to learn and have fun. Hurry though his class fills up quick!
Simply put... a great human being and a great teacher! You will learn more than just psych with Prof. Mitchell! Can't say enough good things about him. I miss having him as a teacher!

amazing amazing amazing. take it, he makes it easy to enjoy because he is a remarkable teacher.
He is a wonderful, helpful teacher. IF you ever need help or an extension on something he is more than willing to help. Take for him for child psych and you will be surprised at how much you will remember after the semester!
Professor Mitchell is an awesome professor. He's a great guy with a personality like no one I've ever encountered before. His classes are fun and he tells some crazy stories- but makes for a good class. He grades you solely based upon 6 tests-one is dropped. Amazing teacher, Great guy.
very interesting examples, helps you remember and not lose interest. I'm more interested in psych now. Would strongly recommend.
Dr. Mitchell is the best professor in C.C.C., his lectures are great,his test are not very difficult, it is an important key to read the chapters several times,although attendance is not mandatory, is strongly suggested.
Fun class.
Def. a hard class, what he teaches in class is NOT on the test. You have to read the entire book on our own time in order to get a passing grade.
he was fabulous! what a wonderful man! no words! what an incredible teacher! he is just amazing! try to get him if you can!
HE IS AWESOME!!!... his teaching methods help you understand how the mind works... however i do recommend that you read the chapters...to help you understand a concept better he will give you examples...his example are AWESOME!!!...they become etched in your brain...
he is a great teacher... all though you should read the chapters he tends to not teach all that is in the book..helpful when you have problems.
Good teacher, gives good examples, but very hard to take notes, he jumps around alot. An absolute must...read the chapters, or you will fail.
EXCELLENT teacher! EXTREMELY interesting lectures! Takes whole class time. No HW. Grade = avg of 6 non-cumulative multiple-choice tests, drops lowest grade. Tests only on chapters in book, not lectures. Read the book, use study guide. Warning: MIND-BLOWING PROF! You will learn MORE than just psych! VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! EYE-OPENING!
HE IS THE BEST!! HE GIVES GREAT EXAMPLES. HE HAS A GREAT PERSONALITY. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
He is awesome, gives you points on every exam and his stories are funny. I enjoyed his class and recommend him to everyone who has to take Psych.
I have done two semesters at CCC, and this man is by far the best professor that I have encountered. If you are taking a psychology class, then do whatever possible to get him. And lol at the people who complain about having to actually read the chapters in the book. This isn't high school, folks. Fun/easy class that is rewarding. This man is gold.
Love this class! Entertaining lectures you actually get involved in rather than drown out. Student engagement fuels his passion. Take him, take him, take him-ANY CHANCE YOU GET. You will not regret it. One of a very few TRULY exceptional Professors at this college. Most are good or at least ok, Mitchell is exceptional for sure.
Very nice, funny professor that keeps your interest with his stories. I actually enjoyed going to class and was dissapointed when he cancelled class. Some of his stories have little application to the exams, but it is still ridiculously easy to get an A. Just read the book for 0-2 hours a week, and you should easily end up with an A.
Great teacher! Make sure you come to class day befor test he gives test questions! I got an A but you have to read the chapters. He is very entertaining.
An amazing, interesting teacher. I thoroughly enjoyed the course.
Fun, Easy, Interesting class. Read the book, Get A's on the tests.
Dr. Mitchell is the kind of teacher that changes lives. I have never met anyone as dedicated to his profession nor to his students as he demonistrates. I wish I could continue with my education forever if only he could be the teacher of every class. By the way, he is so intelligent that he is more that capable of teaching any subject there is.
I found the class to be very intellectually stimulating, extremely interesting and fun. The class time flew by all too soon. We were challenged to use our minds and look at the world from different perspectives. I thoroughly enjoyed Dr. Mitchell's style of teaching.
if you really want to know about this class is better if you take another professor
I CAN HONESTL SAY I ENJOYED THIS CLASS VERY MUCH.PROFESSOR MITCHELL TRULEY LIKES TO TEACH AND YOU CAN SEE THAT DURING HIS LECTURES..TRUST ME HE CAN LECTURE. AS LONG AS YOU COME TO CLASS AND READ YOUR TEXT ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO FAIL HIS CLASS.
he is one of the most interesting teachers i have ever had, he really gets you into the class and the topics (and i took hime over the summer). the test are DIRECTLY from the book. if you read the chapter and go over the study guide terms and multiple choice once or twice you will gaurnteed get an A.
He was a great teacher....the class was so interesting and was fairly easy. I would definately take his class again and would recommend him to anyone. TAKE HIS CLASS.
This is my third time to take his class. He is the best so far I have in CCC. I am so lucky that I had him in my first semester in CCC. He is reasonable and the tests are very straight forward as long as you read the book couple times. I really learn a lot from him not just the knowledge on the book. He actually is a encyclopaedia.
Dr. M's class was interesting. Know the book and you get an A it's that simple and his lectures were thought provoking.I'd take it again.
You can really tell the difference between the good teachers and the bad teachers. Professor Mitchell was 1 of 8 great teachers I took over the summer. I learned my lesson over the fall, with only 3 great teachers and 3 bad teachers, I am having a hard time teaching myself 3 classes. If you find a good teacher make sure you keep taking them.
I truly do love this guys class! I have taken him twice so far and actually decided to change my major to Psychology because of my enjoyment. His tests are straight forward and always from the book. He doesn't require attendance, but rewards you with bonus points or review questions on most occasions! He really loves his students and his subject!
I LOVED his class! His lectures are so much fun and he really gets you interested in pyschology. He always gives extra points to everyone & as long as you read the chapters you will pass the class! He has such a great personality & is so knowledgeable about everything! He is great :)
Outstanding teacher. Camden County is extremely lucky to have him and the students who have him are also fortunate. I have taken classes post masters and he is one of the best teachers I've ever had.
Best pysch proffessor at ccc. If you like psychology,funny stories, and interesting lectures with with a twist i suggest you take this class.He relates the real world to the course. The tests are all multiple choice right from the book. Read the chapters or you will fail badly.Read them more than once.
By some divine intervention the only class I've ever taken was Dr. Mitchell's 101 over the summer. I consider it to be a lucky day in my life and am amazed to see how many other people he has gotten through to.
Best professor at CCC. He will always keep you entertained and well informed. He will make you laugh and wonder, and the best part is YOU DONT HAVE TO COME TO CLASS. Easy A
Dr. Mitchell was very interesting - both in his teaching style and his personal appearance. When I had him for a summer class, he used to drink tea w/ a big ginger root right from what looked to be a mason jar. He is a very intelligent and sincere man and teacher. I learned a lot in his class and he treats you like a paying adult.
Great man. He is the best professor I've ever had.
Prof. Mitchell is the GREATEST !!!
Very nice professor. A little on the weird side but very nice. Multiple choice exams and he does a nice little review before every exam.
Great techer! Keeps class interesting. Tests are easy A's if u read the text book
Mr. Mitchell's awesome! I loved his class and I'm about to take another one of his classes this semester. I highly recommend him, he is very enthusiastic about what he does and keeps the class really interesting. Very respectful guy with lots of admirable quality's. Very intelligent as well!
The best teacher I ever had. You definitely get more than you paid for with any class Dr. Mitchell teaches. He gives valuable insight into psychology and its applications in daily life.
Frank Mitchell WOW what can I say but the best teacher out there full of information, keeps the class interesting, yes he has some ideas about a lot of issues, but at least he is teaching, he cares is helpful and if you read the TEXTBOOK you will get an A.. Good teacher and is a must have... Great class all of his Psych classes are great
imagine a teacher who encourages you to think. imagine a teacher who challenges you to critically evaluate the theories in the text! Mitchell is pure genius. best teacher at CCC or anywhere. he will blow your mind, fascinate you, and make you laugh till your sides hurt! Mitchell is awe-inspiring his class is an experience you will never forget!
Professor Mitchell is absolutely amazing in his teaching skills and very entertaining. He is by far the best teacher that I have ever had here at CCC. I love coming to his class every day, and look forward to the next time we meet. He has opened up my mind in so many ways and I cannot thank him enough for his encouragement.
I could not have asked for a better teacher. As long as you read like you are supposed to, than you should receive an A for the class. He is very helpful and understanding. He opens your mind in so many ways, ways you thought that you would never think. He makes me want to be a psychologist and live the life he has. He makes me want to help others,
Dr. Mitchell is the best teacher that I have ever had in my life. He is a very interesting and intelligent man, who strives to open your mind. He is worth every penny that you would spend on school. He has made learning absoultely fun and interesting. I would like to thank him for everything he has taught me.
Dr. Mitchells class is fun and entertaining. He keeps you attention with each and every lectures that he gives. He is truely an inspiration in my life. This is one class that I will never forget, and one teacher that has impacted my life forever. Best teacher by far at CCC. Thank you for opening my eyes and making learning fun.
i learned absolutely nothing in this class. all he does is ramble on about his opinions. i think i learned more about the us government in this class than actual psychology . however his class is an easy A ! dude hands out extra credit like candy,just make sure your in class to receive it !
THIS MAN IS AWESOME I WOULD TAKE HIM AGAIN AND AGAIN IF YOU WANT TO LEARN PROF MITCHELL IS THE WAY TO GO
Professor Mitchell not enough can be said this man really knows his material is extremely helpful. He cares about his students and that they learn. read the book take good notes and you will learn what you need to know. he is always there for his students and is always willing to lend an ear. I would take his classes over and over.
Frank Mitchell is brilliant. All you really have to do is read your textbook and you will be fine. He talks a lot in class but it's always interesting and he encourages you to THINK. To the people who say he sucks because you HAVE to read the book. You obviously don't know what college is about. If you like thinking out of the box take this class.
Professor Mitchell is a nice guy, he gives extra credit a lot.tests are straight from the book. The downside to his class is that he doesn't teach anything in the class. it's 2 1/2hrs of him just talking about whatever he feels like it's not on the test. 2ndly his tests are on 3 chapters at a time.
I was in his class for Basic Psy. I can honestly say in the beginning i was so excited for the class, but as each day went i dreaded the class more & more. His style of teaching is so difficult, if you dont like reading the book then dont even bother taking the class. He's a nice guy & gives out ALOT of extra credit which helped me so much !!
Crazy as a cat on meth, but then again the "greats" always are. He's a uh special dude, but he's a favorite of mine... Secret: Read the book + only show up on test days= 'A!!!
Brilliant!
Very boring class went on rants about nothing related to the subject. However, he also gives 5 extra points on all tests and at times will give up to 25 points.. Don't need to attent class only on day of test and if u do read the book and wrote down stuff from the chapter during the lecture.. Pretty much an easy A I would def recommend him!
He gives lots of extra credit, tests are straight out of the book, but he rambles for the entire class about irrelevant information!
Had him for Abnormal Psychology, taking his Social Psych class just out of sheer interest in listening to his lectures! If you are a psychology major, you MUST take at least one of his classes - he teaches things you will never learn from American textbooks. He's a funny guy and has a lot of great experiences to speak about! Thanks, Dr. Mitchell!
Had him for social and abnormal psych. Study the book, gives extra credit. Easy A if you read book during his class. No study guide though.
Study in class and show up to class. He gives anywhere from 10-35 extra credit points only if your at class when he gives it so attend. EASY A!!!!!! LOVE HIM!
Does not attendance which causes a lot of people to only show up on test days. You will miss out on extra credit if you don't show up to class though. Easy A if you study. I enjoyed his lectures immensely
I LIKE PROFESSOR MITCHELL! VERY INTERESTING. IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FAIL HIS CLASS. HE GIVES YOU ALL KINDS OF WAYS TO PASS. IF YOU DONT PASS, ITS ONLY BECAUSE YOU DIDNT TRY. I HAVE 2 CLASSES WITH HIM IN THE FALL, AND I LOOK FORWARD TO HAVING HIM TEACH AGAIN. RAMBLES A BIT, BUT VERY FUNNY! EASY A!
This is the most easiest professor every, he's awesome, but he's got a lot of stories.
If you want a class that is predominately lecture based, this is it. The book is not used in class, but rather you use it on your own to study from. He spins the focus of the chapters into examples/stories from his own life, which is pretty hilarious. He speaks fast and can be hard to follow, but once you figure him out he is entertaining!
He is a awesome teacher. He always had me interested in his rambles and always gives extra credit. He is hysterical. Some things he says are very controversial and borderline offensive to some people, but he states that before any lecture containing anything resembling rude. Easy A.
Great teacher! Easy A if you just read your chapters. Must show up, but you can leave or take breaks whenever. TONS of extra credit!
He is the best professor I had so far! His lectures are very interesting and just read the book and you'll pass his class!!!! Very funny guy and he is very passionate and knows his stuff!!!
Took Psychology of Death and Dying with him, and while it seemed to be his specialty, he teaches all psychology classes and based on my experience I'd recommend him for any class. Very little homework, very little reading, but I've honestly learned more from him than all other CCC professors combined. What a cool dude.
Great guy Very interesting and his lectures will definitely make you reexamine everything you thought you already knew. Expects you to know your stuff and read the assigned chapters but he has great stories that go along with his lectures.
Kind of a weird class. I had him for psychology 101 and the lectures were super long at first and not much for the test was covered in class, but towards the end you realize you don't have to show up to class except on test days and his stories and life lessons are actually really good and funny. He's a good guy. Easy A!
Cool, interesting Professor!
He is "quite literally" the best professor at CCC. You will learn so much from him because he isn't afraid to tell the truth. Lectures are long, but he is absolutely hilarious. Great class
Frank Mitchell is to-the-point. First day of class he tells you to get an A on the test you just read the chapter. You can literally ignore everything he says and read the book and get an A. He in an extremely entertaining lecturer even if he gets off track. There hasn't been a test without extra credit. He's extremely approachable and kind.
This professor will teach you more than any other professor at CCC. He lectures for the entire class, but they're always interesting. If you have an open mind and enjoy critical thinking, this is the guy for you. He will willing to help and clarify anything if needed.
This professor rambles for 2.5 hours about stuff marginally related to the chapter at best. Self-centered and conceited, he believes no one is smarter than he. Doesn't really teach. Tells you first day to get an "A", read the book, but also to not trust the book. Would not recommend overall.
Professor Mitchell's class was my 1st college course taken in 18 years. His technique annoyed me at first, but once I got the hang of his style, he wasn't so bad. Read the book, follow the syllabus, and come to class and you will be fine. His stories are "quite literally" legendary!8-)
Dr Frank Mitchell is hands down the best instructor I've ever had the pleasure of learning from. He is kind and intelligent, and he cares about his students and is more than willing to make himself available and approachable. He explains the material in a way that is understandable. I plan on taking more of his classes in the future. LOVE HIM
He great! Definitely recommend! Test are easy!
Interesting! I wasn't sure I would pass at first because his style of teaching is a lot different. But as long as you read the chapters and go to class you will pass. His lectures are awesome. You will learn a lot about life. Brilliant man!
This guy is very interesting. His lectures aren't really helpful when it comes to the tests. With that said he gives a lot of extra points during class so showing up is a good idea. If you read the book it's an easy A. He does have a tendency to drone on about himself but the stories are pretty funny (and almost unbelievable).
Amazing professor. First day of class he said he has 2 PHD's and it definitely shows. He doesn't lecture word for word from the book but uses his real life experiences to teach us. He is hilarious and kind. Super easy course and a joy to be taught by him! If you have a chance, take him.
He is very easy going. The class is not boring. He helps you to get a good mark.
He gives 10 bonus points every test plus extra credit constantly. You don't have to show up but if you do youll get the extra credit. Constantly tells nutty stories.
Great Professor. His brain is filled with a vast amount of knowledge. He doesn't teach directly from the book, instead forcing you to use your brain and think critically. Makes passing tests super easy but more importantly promotes learning.
Although he does not teach out of the textbook, his lectures are fascinating. He shows that psychology can be looked at from many different perspectives and uses a lot of real life experience to portray this.
Superb guy. Beat me up in the subway with his wallet one time. Taught me a priceless lesson.
Very easy class. Just go to class because theres always a chance to get extra credit.
Every test you get at least 10 points added to your grade. Stay for the full class and he will give out extra points to people who stay. The people who stay the day before the final for the full time get a 100 on final. His lectures dont really make sense but staying for the full class gets you an A on the class
Dr. Mitchell is the most profound professor I've ever had. His intellect is too broad for it not to be shared with anyone willing to listen and learn. My advise to all incoming psych majors, would be to take as many of his lectures as possible, they're awing. Not to mention, Dr. Mitchell is absolutely adorable, a grandmother and infant all in one
5 exams of 14 MCQ, he will drop your lowest grade. The questions are all based from his lecture and not the book. Gets off of the topic really quick and is hard to listen. Not the ideal professor if you're coming to class to actually learn something, just a class for passing and getting the grade.
His lectures are really boring, however if you go to the class almost everytime you can pass with easy A . At the end of every class he gives extra credit which very helps on the exam This test are sometimes only 5 questions or either 10-20. They're based on his lecture and READ THE BOOK! If you want to learn something - this class is not for you
This Professor goes on and on about his personal life and it is very easy to fall asleep in his class. Multiple people get up and leave in the middle of his class because what he talks about has nothing to do with learning. Take this class if you're ready to sit for over and hour in boredom and take 0 notes. Read the book and you will pass.
If you're into falling asleep and hearing nonsense for an hour and forty-five minutes then this class is for you. He told our class we do not have to show up unless it is a test day, which means he gives you a paper listing the test dates and what chapters they are on. Read and annotate the certain chapters before the test and you will pass.
Mr. Mitchell is awesome. Most laidback, straightforward & honest professor there is. Would love to take him again.
Made the class fun, a true comedian, sad it got cut short due to Covid. No online work or homework really, just show up and don't fall asleep. The test were as a class so everyone got 100 every time.
Worst teacher I have ever had. The only reason why people love him is because hes an easy A if you can tolerate him and just show up. He barely teaches from the text he assigns so dont even bother wasting your money. He only talks about his personal research and opinions on topics not directly related to the course material. Just want an A? Take
Outstanding professor!!!
