This teacher doesn't care about his students. I set up a meeting with him and waited at his office for a half hour, staring at his empty desk. When I went to class and told him I waited for him, he said I didn't show up and he was there the entire time. It's impossible to get a good grade in his class and he looks like a cheerleader, bouncing around and he's so excited. I want to know what he's been taking. Can I have some?

Fred Miller is, as far as I can tell, a good person. As a teacher he's a complete failure. Often his lectures seemed fabricated and would contradict the text we were using. His tests were, for lack of a better term, insane. I don't think it's hard to get a good grade with Mr. Miller, but it's almost impossible to learn anything from him.

This class was horrible. The tests were not alway's matched with the material in the lectures, and the instructor was grumpy and did no appreciate most questions. Don't think he liked his job very much.

there isn't really enough space here to describe how bad this instructor's class is, and he is even worse! if you like to have your opinions, not your facts, corrected whenever he asks the eternal "so, what do you think?" or if you enjoy being belittled for asking questions when he invites you to do so, be my guest. otherwise, take it elsewhere!

His lectures go very fast. He doesn't like questions and rarely answers them. He enjoys belittling students in front of the class. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS.

He is interesting to listen to and had some interesting extras, but is the worst teacher I've had. It's important to him that you listen to him, but not learn. I emailed him and after he said I didn't, I brought a copy in. He still said I didn't. I completely stopped doing the work and he still gave me a C. He is obviously ****, really offensive!

This teacher refers to people of mixed race as Oreos, he asserts unless you are 100% african american, you can NEVER understand African American people. When complemented he believes you're refering to his ethnicity. When other students asked questions he FREAKED OUT. I can't believe he's still allowed to teach!! I didn't get a bad grade.

Very critical of students for not already knowing what he's supposed to be teaching.

Saw a lot of bad reviews here, wanted to keep an open mind. 3 weeks into the class and I wish I could drop. I'm learning nothing from class, everything I'm learning is from the book or my Master in Psy. friend. Half the test was irrelevant. I'm a 4.0 student and I don't know if that'll be true after this class.

Didn't do real well in the class, which was my own issue. But I thought Mr. Miller was an alright guy and ok teacher by the end of the class. He seems to be either a love him or hate him kinda professors, but I think he means well.

Eh, he's a nice enough guy, it just seems like he's lost his joy for teaching and really didn't seem to have a deep knowledge of his subject. Dry and tedious lectures.

Miller is known for not replying to email, and not being available or showing up for meetings. The reason this is important- he tends to give very confusing instructions while being very picky with results. He should care more about providing clarification if he truly wants his students to succeed. His arrogence is just annoying.

sometimes you take a class and wonder why this person is still teaching. I don't know if Fred was an inspiring, enthusiastic or personable teacher capable of listening to anyone other then himself at any point in his career. I DO know that he is not now. Please save yourself the money and the time. don't take this class. seriously.

I had extremely high hopes after the first class. Miller seemed very fired up and an involved teacher. The next class he skipod through all the powerpoints and didn't lecture hardly at all. He gave practice tests, which helped, but there was so much material you had to guess what he'd really ask. I'd never seen students hate a teacher much.

DISORGANIZED! His office is trashed, he doesn't return things promptly, he picks favorites and I sometimes felt it was racially driven. He is condescending and arrogant. If you shmooz him, you'll do better, but that sucks. I got an A, but there is TONS of material for this basic, easy class so it takes lots of time. Only take him as a last option.

Compared to other instructors I've had at PCC for Psy classes. Fred is not up to par. He's not helpful, very arrogant and doesn't seem to care about a student's success. I felt like he was condescending. He may be smart, but he's not teacher material. Only take him if you have to.

Very tough teacher! He's not very approachable, hard to talk to and gets very arrogant with students. He gets annoyed when students ask questions and doesn't seem very happy to be there.

Not very approachable, seemed arrogant.

The class was interesting but the tests were hard and confusing. There was not enough clarity on what he wanted in the papers. He is very picky and not clear, which made his grading very poor. I have gotten A's in other psychology classes but not in his class. I would not take him again and not recommend him.

Fred is an extremely difficult teacher. I recieved an A in his class but unless you want to put in 8 hours of studying each week DO NOT take this class. He is an engaging teacher but does not always make his expectations clear. Makes you used online site that he himself does not understand. Very harsh grader on journal articles and tests

Professor Miller is a very smart guy but he is not clear on class assignments, test and projects. He will say one thing and then do another. You will ask him a question and he will give you a responce "that's not what I said." People with disabilities should not take him. He's smart but not the best professor. Dont take this class with him.

Very smart but that's about it. I came to him for some questions once and he picked up the phone and called someone while I was talking to him. I would avoid him at all costs. Everything is about him, not you.

He was mildly aggressive with disagreement from students. He made mistakes in the syllabus that had to be corrected by students. He had to be reminded about giving study guides several times. He was often not prepared for class and was missing powerpoint slides. He had very low expectations of students and did not encourage critical thinking.

He takes offense when you ask him to clarify something. Classes seem to be thrown together the day of. He requires you to take and print out online tests from the book and he has no idea how to use and can't help you. His tests are also poorly worded and confusing and the points system he uses is archaic and confusing as well. Save your money.

My main problem with Mr. Miller is that he races through his lectures and is very disorganized. Prepare to teach yourself about psychology during this course because you won't learn much in class. He lost our first exams and told us we would not be able to redo them. I also emailed him repeatedly throughout the course and he never responded.

terrible teacher. Rude. I asked him for a letter of recommendation because I did well in his class and it was littered with typos.

He is incredibly disorganized, and will take it out on you. Even if you are on top of things and have talked to him about something previously, he will be rude and make you feel like its your fault he lost your paper with the feedback on it. He is condescending! Easy class, but he rushes the lectures but still expects you to know all the concepts.

Incredibly disorganized; his office is an absolute mess. Not accessible outside of class and will not reply to email. Condescending while answering questions student's had, and vague expectations. I would not recommend this teacher to anyone.

This is not a class where you have conversations to learn and develop ideas. He lectures and that's it. No open communication. He started using Launchpad for homework and quizzes &has no idea how to use it. Grades only off that. He forgets and goes back on what his expectations are. He's checked out and gets visibly upset when asked questions.

Knowledgable. Open discussions. Lacks understanding of technical english or technology, which causes confusion. Test-heavy, and questions/answers are mis-typed 40% of the time.

Miller is an easy grader but lectures nonstop and goes off on tangents so you never know wtf he's actually talking about. You pretty much have to teach yourself. He will lecture you on the next chapter right before you take a test on the PREVIOUS chapter which is insanely confusing. I think he means well but can be unintentionally rude at times.

Dr. Fred is extremely disorganized, doesn't listen to questions so doesn't adequately answer them, and is condescending and rude. His tests are designed to trick students into putting the wrong answer - for example he'll give two correct answers and you have to figure out which one he wants you to put. Worst class. Take the online version.

I feel like he wanted to be there part of the time and then the other part of the time, he felt like he was trying to get us to fail. It wasn't an easy class and I was not happy with him as a teacher.
