absolutely horrible. Avoid at all costs if you plan on passing.
worst psych professor ever. Unhelpful and kind of mean...its like he WANTS you to fail. Ugh, stay FAR away!
Buy the text, read it at home, nap in class;this guy doesn't like to teach. He knows everything, you don't, and he doesn't care if you ever do. Arrogant.
This guy sucks!! Especially when he loses your entire classes grades for the WHOLE semester on the day of the final and expects you to have all your old tests saved in order to get your grade for the semester. Stay away from him.
very hard, not clear
THE WORST DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS WITH HIM
Hard class, Make sure you read the text, Very smart teacher but hard to follow. Gives your test grades at end of test.
Way past his prime....if he ever had one. Not a good teacher. Doesnt love his job...Stay Away..you wont learn a thing.
this guy totally sucked, he only passed 2 people in the class with a C. He will make fun of you till the next day, he sucks, very arrogent old man. DOnt take his class if you want to pass!
this guy was the worst teacher i have ever had. he was absent 3 times in a row then cramed in like 5 tests in 4 weeks. i stopped going with like 3 weeks left of the class thinking i would just get an "f" but he did just give me a "w". that was the only nice part about him. he makes many crude jokes
I took the online class over the summer and did well because it was all open book. However, his online lectures were rambling and made no sense at all; alot of typos and grammatical errors.
This guy is very prejudiced about other races and makes politically incorrect comments all the time. He is nasty. He will yell at you during class to humiliate you or will put you down. He picks on certain people and also plays pet favorites. His tests are very hard and the questions on it ambiguous. I worked my tail off and got an A in his class.
yeah dr meyers totally sucks hes really nasty thinks that his opinion is holier than now .. he made a comment in class statting that he thinks chinese babies should stay in china and that he did not agree with cross cultural adoptions which was a really ignorant thing to say especially that its 2004
He is a waste of skin. If you take him you will suffer and then walk away with nothing. The only thing you will learn is this guy sucks.
HE IS THE WORST TEACHER EVER! YOU LEARN NOTHING AND HE DOESNT GIVE GOOD GRADES! DO NOT TAKE WITH HIM!!
This guy SUCKS all around. He makes you feel stupid and I hated going to class! he made us wait 45 minutes for him..then didn't show up.. and still gave a test the following class!! Avoid him. he blows
This guy has got to be the biggest mistake a college could make. He will attempt to humiliate you in class but does a poor job at that too. Stay in queens MEYER your better off there
reading notes off the overhead is what class consisted of everyday, might i add that the same notes he reads in class, EVERY CLASS, are also located on his website. Frankly you would be better of teaching yourself. He is the worst teacher ever. his tests are unfair.there are so many other teachers t
OMG takin this guy has got to be the worst idea i could have made. he pretends he's german and talks with an annyoing accent. he covers a different chapt in the text when ur tryin to learn another. take him and i swear you will cry.
HOOOORRRRIBLE!!!!! Take that from someone with a 3.8. he was my only B and I worked HARD for it!!!!! He was just unclear, unhelpful and rude. His tests are all multiple choice and the only answer that counts is his own!!!
He is boring in lectures but tells u exactly what to study, he has study guides online to follow if u study them u will pass. I got B+ and only studied 2 nights in a row.
Ignorant, cocky, sarcastic as they come.GPA means nothing in this class....5 of us with a 4.0 got a c+ and thats was with hard work..notes don't follow lecture or text...and exams dont match either one...this is a prime example of someone who knows he has tenure and cant be fired...he stated in class that if anyone gets an A, then he has done somet
I DO NOT EVEN WANT TO CALL HIM A HUMAN, BUT THIS MAN SO FAR HAS BEEN THE WORST PRO I EVER HAD IF ANYONE HAS THE OPORTUNITY TO READ THIS THANK GOD B/C IT WILL BE A BLESSING! TRUST ME DO NOT TAKE HIM. HE WILL MAKE YOUR LIFE A LIVING HELL!!
horrible!!
Was initially interested in this class until we were introduced to the professor. Many of his remarks are disparaging and snide, and he insulted the foreign-born student that was in her class every time she tried to answer a question. Not very approachable, doesn't review well for tests. Only upside, is the optional paper that can raise your grade.
I took his online class last summer and I found him to be fair and easy. I got an A in the class and I will be honest, I didn't put 100% effort into it. I would recommend his online class for sure. His tests were fair and so were the assignments.
He gets off in demeaning and failing students.He structures the class for failure.He is cruel and mean.He does not possess one redeeming quality. Get out now!Complain to the head of the dept.He dimishes the school.If someone tells you to stick it through,life experience.It's a lie.Nobody should deal with a jerk like him let alone pay for it.
he is very hard. if you kiss his butt you will pass. do the study guides and you'll pass the test. he asks questions and expects very specific answers. ex. if male is the answer boy, guy, man are all wrong. he will spend an hour for one question and will make fun of you if you get it wrong. overall when you understand his humor you see he's alright
One of the worst professors I have ever come across at Suffolk. Doesn't know how to explain assignments, doesn't know how to spell, marks correct answers as being incorrect, and he don't even think about asking him a question. He gets annoyed easily and is quick to make you feel stupid. STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!
I had him a few years ago and OH MY GOD! What a egotistical, pr*ck. NOt only did I have to correct HIM on HIS tests but he lost the grades to all his classes as well. He made fun of all of the students and especially those who would not talk back to him. STAY AWAY AT ALL COST!!!
worst teacher ever! every one of his students has had many complaints. even those who do the ridiculous amounts of work he assigns still fails. he told everbody in the class that if we all dont fail then he is doing something wrong. he is the meanest most unfair professor ive ever had. if you have him already..drop him while you still can!
this guy needs to go somewhere with himself! he is such a jerk, i cant even take the sound of his voice and his stupid jokes that arent even funny!! i hate the way he makes everyone feel stupid.
Worst Professor ever, doesnt teach, very unhelpful
**** unhelpfull big jerk
worst teacher ever. he doesnt answer any questions. he asks the class and if no1 knows then u will never find out the answer.he doesnt teach you anything and no matter how much notes or how much u read and pay attention it is still impossible to understand the material.
worst professer ever, never answers questions and makes you answer even if you dont know it and when you do, he will rip you apart infront of the whole class. "GET OUT!!!!!"
The worst. The Worst. The Worst. Get out if you can. He is demeaning, insulting and offensive. His lectures are useless and his test reviews non existent. He say he has tenure so he doesn’t care. He is the worst thing that every happened to what is otherwise a good school.
He was def one of the worst teachers I ever had. I remember telling him I was going away for a few days and was going to miss the test and asked him if I could take it early or something. He told me not to worry about it and when I came back to ask when I could make it up he said its done with and I could not take it. Half my class got an F or W
This man should not have a job. No reviews for tests. He thinks everyone should just get the notes online and already know them. He doestnt teach at all. He just reads over the notes on the web site that you can do yourself. The good part is that after you do your best he will most likely through you a D. Nice Guy!
Incompetent ineffective uncaring and NASTY
I think he should not teach anymore. he is so hard, that i dropped his class. i actually skipped one of his tests. he was so pissed. about half of my class either faied or dropped his class. he is so disorganized with his notes that you cant understand a thing.
WORST TEACHER TO EVER WALK THE FACE OF THIS EARTH... **** PIG
Arrogant ****, not helpful, notes are scattered, tests are rediculously hard, started off semester with 37 people in my class, now have 13.
not easily approachable, answers questions with a question. Makes weird sounds during tests. Forget trying to approach him!
If you want a teacher that just puts you down every day, doesn't let you ask questions, makes you feel like sh**,or makes your gpa go down, then this is the right professor for you. All he says is, "If you print out the notes, and read the chapter, you should know.". I'm sorry, I did both. I still understood sh**.
HORRIBLE! All he ever talkes about is sex, guns and drugs. His tests dont even cover what we go over in class, and he seems not to care that HE is ruining our GPA's by acting this way. its near impossible to learn anything in his class. he relates everything to sex, and makes people feel unconfortable. Not worth your time, STAY AWAY!!!!!!!!!!
After taking his class i now need to see a Psychologist.
i cant see why students dislike this prof. so much- they must not like doing honest work. His tests are fair- only 4, and just 2 reaction papers. He's very funny at times b/c he has a unique sense of humor. He does his job, and if u do yours, u will do well. Sure my class went from 35 to 10 people but whose counting anyway
Remember this man. Incompetent professors like him is the reason that TENURE must be eliminated.
Took the online class. I got an A, however, there was never any inter action with this teacher, he never once participated in the class, basically as long as you are involved in discussion, you get credit, he gives 5 tests, drops the lowest grade. He had no involvement. When u ask a question he was nasty!! Plus 1000 of typos, how embarrassing! 4him
I am taking his online class. I was so nervous at first because I kept hearing how terrible and difficult it was. Let me tell you... that is all BS. I'm no hardcore student either. If you read the book and complete everything on time...you are fine!! I'm totally going to take him again next semester. So don't be alarmed! This guy is great.
Following this guys class was like watching that movie MOMENTO< where you had NO IDEA what was going on until the end. He asks a lot of questions and doesn't move on until someone answers. But he's funny, and he does know what he's talking about.
i hate this guy hes horrible tests r the hardest thing i took in the world he sux sry 2 rain on ne1s parade
No Comments
HE is the worst professor I have ever had the displeasure of coming in contact with. Do not walk, RUN, from his class. He has had more complaints made against him than any other professor and I can understand why.
Horrible prof. Do not take any class with him. I pulled off a C, which was the highest grade in the class. 3/4 of the class got to choose if they wanted the F or a withdrawel
Very confusing, really hard to talk too, doesn't really teaches, just expects the students to already know everything, asks a million questions and won't move on until they are answered. I always feel very lost in his class.
At first, i hated this guy and i wanted to withdraw from the class. but, once you catch onto the way he teaches and if you print out the notes, there's no reason for you to do bad. i failed my first 2 tests and got a passing grade after studying the way he expects. write down everything he says and print out the notes and you should do fine.
horriable horriable!!! i am an A student and I got a C. Totally ruined my GPA. DO NOT TAKE HIM. YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!
Horrible...Would never recomned this teacher to anyone. Even if you do all the work, your lucky to get a C. Don't take him.
This is one of the worst prof at suffolk. Take this class if you want an F or a D in an intro class. His tests are extremely hard. Trust me no one in my class got a better than a C!!!
Please do not take this professor! He will make you life miserable! Has a very nasty attitude towards students and very unhelpful. Gets mad if you ask him a question. I found this class espcially hard for a entry level class.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS MANS COURSES!IF YOU TAKE HIM, REMEMBER THIS "I TOLD YOU SO!"
i just found out about this website and if i would of known earlier i would of looked up my teachers and realized not to take this class.. i lovee psychology and its depressing that i got stuck with a teacher like this. he really is horrible, you can never follow anything he says.. basically talks for himself and his tests are impossible!!
He's nasty and mean. I wouldn't not recommend anyone else taking him. He even went so far as to call students stupid when they asked questions or didn't know the answers.
he sucks as a professor. he doesnt care about his students. he doesnt care if you pass or not. he doesnt try to help if you are failing. he swears he is funny and he is not. majority of his students get D's or fail and you cant never understand the work.
At first was confuzed then realized you have to go on his web site and take his notes to do well i took 2 courses first one C then the second course was a B. Just had to learn his teaching style :) he has a dry sense of humor.
don't ever take him, worst professor ever! mean RUDE! thinks he's so much better than everyone else. makes you feel like an idiot. don't even bother asking for help because he doesn't explain anything and makes you feel stupid for asking. his class is a complete waste of time and money, if you're in it get out, if not don't even think about it!
He is down right rude and impatient. He doesn't give you enough time to copy down notes and contradicts the text book. He makes you feel very inferior and stupid and does not help you when asked. If you are taking his class drop it ASAP. It's not worth the waste of time and money. If you can, take Prof. Rooney, he is an excellent teacher!!!
definatly wierd sense of humor, doesnt really respect any of his students.. he cant ever be wrong & is quick with his lectures. but if you print all of the notes & review papers, take good notes.. & get on his good side, youll do ok. i dont particularly reccomend him, but the topics he discusses are really interesing
Doesn't seem to have any respect for students, berates you if you ask a "stupid" question or give an incorrect answer, puts down entire groups of people (ie women). Reading the text doesn't seem to help much. Mumbles a lot. Tests are all over the place. I'm doing well in the class but only because his coursework overlaps another course I'm taking.
I absolutely DESPISE this professor. He doesn't care about his students, and his exams are hard to deal with. But unfortunately, I'd have to take it to get my education degree.
Horrible!!! Makes stupid jokes that aren't funny. Isn't clear about the subject. Gets pissed and skips slides if you don't know the answer, Or gives a POP Quiz whenever someone asks a question and NO ONE knows the answer!
His exams are hard, his lectures are horrible. He mumbles, makes jokes(stupid jokes) and mocks the students. Do NOT ever take any of his classes, and if you HAVE TO, read the book 5 times and bring a recorder! Good Luck
He is horrible as a teacher. Makes weird references to sex.. Talking about incest and getting family members pregnant. Very incomprehensive.
From every other comment, you'd think he's a bad guy, he's really not. His lectures might be dry, and he goes fast on his slides, but all his notes are on the webpage. Every class I walk out knowing what we discussed without reading the book. DONT JUDGE HIM BY OTHERS COMMENTS! He's not that bad! I took him twice :)
I TELLING U ON A SERIOUS NOTE DO NOT TAKE HIM.WORST TEACHER I HAVE EVER TAKEN.COMES OFF REAL RUDE AND JUST A STRIAGHT UP ****
This guy is the worst I'v seen in my college life. I have no other prof. like this, he is a nasty man and should not teach. Don't have a laptop for notes since he will make u go online to look for stuff then read it outloud and say its wrong. HE WILL MAKE U CRY, BELIVE ME HE DID!!!
WARNING! DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS HE IS THE WORSED. HES RUDE CALLES PEOPLE STUPID IN FRONT OF CLASS AND MAKES YOU FEEL AWAKWARD IN CLASS!!!!
Everyone is WAY to sensitive on here if they think he is mean. Get over it and take a joke. I have been in his class and he has had a DRY sense of humor but at least he has one..like you people. He does the power point quickly because he expects his students to BRING THE NOTES he puts up on the website so it is only like a review if you are WISE en
idk what everyones talking about. hes not rude at all, i agree with the person below me. he just has a sense of humor. hes a hard professor, tests are next to impossible to get over a 70 or 80. No one passes with over a B. He gives 2 term papers and a chance for extra credit. stay ontop of everything and youll be fine.
He CAN be hard on you, but its due to his 'weird' sense of humor... I liked him as as person but will NOT recommend him as a professor! He will confuse you, tell u that the textbook is wrong and give you the hardest test ever!! This professor is not for sensitive ppl thats for sure!!!
he's got a weird sense of humor. it's not too bad but his tests are impossible and he contradicts himself in his notes and tells us that what is in hte text book is wrong. the dean of psychology recommends that no one take his classes. i think that says something
Very hard to understand, lowest grade I ever received in college, all A's before him. I did alot of studying and did all the reading and still couldnt get a great grade. He talks down to everyone and makes you feel stupid. I even cried once in class. His reports are impossible. You just cant please this guy and it shows in his grades. He even says
He is HARD to understand and s bit insensitve, but if you read his notes and use the on line lab that comes with the textbook you will be ok. I thought his papers were not that hard to do... if you follow his outline exactly
worst, is very rude. called a student retarded during class. i answered a question straight from the book word for word once and he told me it was wrong. i studied and went to every class and got the lowest grade i ever got in college. DONT TAKE HIM. a lot of people from my class went and complained and the dean even said he's bad.
Not the best teacher. He has a weird sense of humor and says questionable things. His tests arent that hard and his teaching isnt that bad either. I don't recomend him.
It's good to have the notes prepared before class which you can get from his website. He is really confusing and you really need to study for this class! It's not that hard if you study, and the papers are pretty easy if you directly follow the outline. Bad sense of humor, says things that don't make sense, or are untrue. He is always right.
He is a smart man, but is bad at teaching. He has a web site with tons of information but its not organized, the student has to do it. What he teaches and what's on the test are not closely related. You really need to study, I did, but only got a B. I do not recommend him.
