Her test are very hard and she does not review before any of the test
her test are hard but she tells u where to get the stuff from (internet) and her papers are FREAKING EASY u just plagiarize right there and she gives u an A i didnt even try and i got an A in the class..i was always late LOL
very nice woman..sucks that her tests are sooo hard. But she tells you that upfront. you have the option to do chapter reviews from extra points on tests. HOP ON IT. you will need it. Had to write about 2 papers. Gives plenty of extra credit opportunities
great prof easy tests . take her and you'll love psychology of anything. trust me
Really nice and understanding teacher...but her tests are not really easy
a nice and happy professor explains work clearly
Awesome Teacher. Very nice, she cares about her students, and gives opportunities for extra credit. She knows her stuff and tries her best to make the class interesting. Her tests aren't easy but they're not mind-boggling either. If you pay attention in class and open your book once in a while you should get an A.
VEY NICE LADY SHE SMILES TOO MUCH. TEST ARE VERY HARD AND SHE DOES NOT REVIEWS FOR THEM. PLENTY EXTRACREDIT. 4 TEST AND 2 PAPERS. FAIR. HER NOTES ARE HORRIBLE. AND IF YOU WANT TO PASS THE LITERARY READ EVERY PAGE IN THE DAWM BOOK LIKE I HAD TO DO. SOMETIMES CLASS IS BORING AND SHE TAKES AWAY POINT AFTER YOUR 3RD ABSENCE. YOU HAVE TO STUDY A LOT!!!!
Just come to class and do the written assignements and ur bond to past. get at least a high d on the test and ur at least going to get a C.
This woman is a doll! So incredibly sweet and smart. The tests are hard, the lectures are very interesting and if this is your major, this is the way to go. She covers everything and more! Awesome teacher ***
She's nice but i personally dont like her. She doesnt review which is bad and shes not funny at all. You wont like her, read, read, and read. Choose another professor!!!!!!!!!
I had Professor Peterson for my last class of the day and no matter how tired i was whether it be from my other classes or doing some hard partying the day before I always looked forward to her class. I've learned so much in that class, just show up, do your chapter reviews, and study before the test over your class notes and you'll pass for sure!
i learned alot from you class but her test doesnt correlate with what she teach in class you must have a book to pass. i studied hard but made a b, c, and d on her exams but i got an A in the class because she give a lot of extra credit
Wow, words cant describe how much I loved this class! She is the best prof. i have ever had. I learned the subject very well and have applied it to my life. Her tests and projects are a piece of cake! I got an A on all of them. TAKE HER SHES GREAT! :D
Miss Peterson is a very nine person, always smiling!! She gave only 4 exam and a lot of extra credits.She used current example to help us understand the concept en psy.Attendance is mandatory and worthed 20% of the final grade. Take her, you will enjoy the class and learn a lot!!!!
Nice person and GREAT teacher!! Highly recommended :)
Nice person and great professor!!! Highly recommended :)
This professor really is nice, just don't slack in class. She teaches very well and is more interested in you understanding the real concept of psychology which makes her a good teacher.Make sure to take notes and your textbook is ESSENTIAL. Overall, I learned a lot and I'm glad I took this class with her.
Probably one of the KINDEST, MOST KNOWLEDGEABLE, prof Ive ever had. A real sewwtheart. Very, very helpful. Will exaplain any and every question you may have. DO NOT hesitate to take her, Ginny is THE BEST!!
Great, nice, helpful, clear teacher. Answers all questions. Grades based on 4 Exams, 1 Powerpoint presentation, Extra Credit, and Attendance/Participation. Reading the material is MANDATORY. It's not difficult, just time consuming.
You can't goof around in this class because if you do you wont get a good grade. She gives extra points on the test so that's a big time +. You do have to read the chapters and actually pay attention to the lecture to get a decent grade
I LOVE her! She is really sweet and extremely helpful. Best professor I've had thus far.
she is amazing makes this class very interesting you will learn a lot she is super nice has a great attitude buy the book you will need to read the chapters in order to pass her test which are not hard at all as long as you read and pay attention to her lectures
Real sweet and soft spoken... She brings various materials to encourage and interest you... I took her for 6 weeks course and was sure I was going to fail! I got a B so you be the judge :)... I like her very professional
This professor litterally can catch a 30 year old's attention and teach them a 2nd or 3rd language if she wanted to. She KNOWS how to teach. Shes super mellow, talks super clear and honestly I havent had a professor like this in a while. I recommened this Professor to everyone. She just knows how to teach. Awesome class.
Awsome Professor,she kept the class interesting.There were three test 50 questions each, no mid term and no final exam.
EASY! let me just put that out there. She is very nice. I thought she was going to be mean but complete opposite. No class work, extra credit that is as easy as it gets. Take her if anyone this is the best teacher of my semester and I wish there was a teacher like her for every subject. Overall FUN class. LOVE IT !
I highly recommend this professor for PSY2012. She makes PSY alot of fun and keep it very interesting. I took this class for Summer A (6 wks) and loved it. 1 powerpoint presentation. 3 exams and extra credit for attendance and participation. She is fair, kind, and willing to answer all your questions. Crystal clear!! I got an "A" in her class :)
Wonderful Professor! Yes, you have to read your book. Book is mandatory. She always gives you xtra credit to boost your grade. Lectures are clear, English is crystal clear. Love her!
A super Professor., she is very understanding and will answer any questions. reasonable with attendance but send her an email in advance.
Amazing prof! Took her for Clp1006. She really knows her stuff. Makes the class interesting and easy. Read the chapters and you will pass the class with an easy A. Very interesing class, actually learn something new about yourself.Taking her for PSY2012 next term, cant wait!:)
This Professor is hands down the best Professor at North Campus. She is crystal clear during her lectures, and always brings extra material to relate what we're studying to the real world. She answers all questions, is very cheerful, and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend her to anyone thinking of taking a Psychology course. She is amazing!
Professor is awesome as long as you follow her syllabus you have the potential of receiving and A. She i big on attendance and big on PASS DUE ASSIGNMENTS so make sure you follow the syllabus. But aside form that she is very organized and makes the subject extremely interesting.
She wasn't a bad teacher but she wasn't all that great either. Class participation gets you a lot of bonus points but because the class is so BORING, you won't even bother to pay attention. You don't really need to buy the book either, it will for the most part just sit at home or in your bag gathering dust. Not a teacher that I recommended...
Amazing prof
She is a great professor and psychologist. It is not a walk on the park for most, but after some dedication you will get the grade you deserve. She is the kind of person who loves to help people. I highly recommend her. Make sure you read the book, follow her syllabus, participate, put effort and you will earn an A+.
She is a wonderful teacher willing to help out students and give out extra credit. Her tests and homework are all online and she is very nice. Only thing is she is strict on unexcused absences
Awesome professor - Take her
I love this professor she is super sweet and i really enjoyed her class ! Take it you will not regret it! All work is online!
She is an amazing and super nice teacher! I would recommend anyone to take her, since her class was super easy. Tests and HW are online at home. She really appreciates your effort. Very passionate about the subject and well prepared. Some students claim that the class was boring, but I rather prefer boring than hard. Take her and you wont regret
Her lectures are boring and you are going to have to read the book. She only gives definitions in class and a couple of examples an still has to read. In this class she gave a lot of extra credit but you have to ask for it. The papers she assign is an easy A if you follow her guidelines. She gives 2 take home test, if the whole class ask.
This class was boring you have to read the book and the chapters were extremely long. She only gives the definitions and a couple of examples. She gives a stress mastery journal which is stupid but its an easy A. Makes you watch a video and gives a paper on it also an easy A. Going to class is mandatory it helps your grade..
The class overall is simple, I really had no need to purchase the book, however, I would skim it to get an idea of what she would be discussing in class before entering class. If you do not show up to class she will lower your grade so do your best not to miss her class. It is probably the best class to take as a mini term.
I loved her! She was very nice and always answered any questions I had! She explains the chapters in a way that makes it interesting and fascinating. Just be on top of when the homework is due, because it might not be due on the same day that it was the last time you turned it in. She also gives 10-15 min breaks in the middle! 5 stars!!
She is a super nice professor and explains the lectures amazingly! Just read the chapters and study and you'll pass. Make sure to show up to class though or she will take off points from your test grade.
I love psychology so the class was very entertaining. Just take the time to read each chapter. Homework (easy) and Tests (at home) are online. Professor is informative and reviews each chapter. Try and Pass
It was a meaningful and interesting class. You will learn a lot. She is nice and helpful. No exams/quizzes. Only daily journals which was due at the end of semester.
very clear lectures and is passionate about what she teaches. assigns journal project, and a paper on a video. grades generously. i wrote multiple pages for my paper and person next to me wrote one sloppy page and we both received As. just take notes and study them. 3 tests and they are exactly what she lectures. enjoyed the class, recommended!!!!!
This professor gives clear lectures. Mandatory attendance 3 or more lowers your grade by one letter grade. Gives online homework and tests through a code you need to buy from the textbook. Assigns papers and presentations at the end of the course. really gives the students opportunities to raise their grade
Highly recommend that you show up to class, if you do bring a doctors note. The majority the the material learned is common sense. You REALLY need your textbook, every chapter is used. We only had three exams, each exam was 50 questions . One essay about a video (easy A), and one super easy journal assignment. THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR FAILING.
Easy class. Just read the chapters and take good notes, because it's what comes in the test. You have to give 2 essays and is pretty easy to get A on those. Highly recommended...
In lectures she summarizes the chapter. Class was a little interactive. Homework and exams were all online(have to buy access code). Book's not needed. Don't miss any of the homework or test deadlines, she won't let you make it up. You have to make a powerpoint at the end of the semester. Easy but do it with time. So do all the assignmentsEasy A.

On average she would show up to class 15 to 20 mins late every class. This class was easy because all you had to do was show up get attendance, do the hw and tests which are online, one two page essay, and a power point for a final which was very easy. Highly recommend this class if you're looking for an easy credit.
Grades 3 tests and 2 research papers. The lectures are interesting enough that you won't fall asleep unless you've been up working for "25 hours". The book is "mandatory" but I haven't read it.
Test are online, essay on a book ("The Help" for my class) , capstone project that is easy, and a trip to the Everglades. Homework is extra credit for tests, usually from 10-15 points. Homework is just reading and answering questions online. Do the extra credit homework as it help A LOT. She is very nice, and give a lot of extra credit
Her class is fairly easy, all of the assignments and exams are online. make sure to do them before time because she will not reopen them for anyone. 1 critic paper, super easy, and a powerpoint presentation, which is also super easy.
She's a great teacher. Very patient and her assignments/tests are very easy. Just take notes and you'll pass. Definitely recommend.
i typically never do reviews but this professor is a joke first of all she was always late ! but would preach about not being late and not missing class !!!!! how sway ? secondly her lectures are extremely boring a dreadful im never tired but find ways to sleep in her class. and she critiques everything to be perfect . also YOU CAN NEVER MISS CLASS
This class is EXTREMELY boring but all the work is online and if you do every single one then you will pass. Im glad I took her for only 8 weeks.
Best Professor ever take her you will not regret easy A everything is online one PP presentation in class at the end I took her for summer A I passed with an A
You can't skip class at all. Lectures can sometimes be boring as they last the entire class and not much else goes on. All homework/tests are online but you have to do them the days that they are open if not, she won't open them again. She's late a lot and gets annoyed if you're late. Other than that, she's actually a nice lady.
Attendance is mandatory, absences mark off points. The professor is very boring, but the work is very easy. There are a few papers but they're all just 1 page. Textbook was used a little. Just take notes and you'll pass.
DO NOT TAKE HER. Her class is run like a high school class. She WILL take your phone away. You have around 10 test and they are all over 50 questions + HW. Shes a horrible teacher you are practically learning everything on your own. You can be absent 3 times but you have to bring a note from a doctor if not she will put a letter grade down.
she's a sweetheart but ginny voice and teaching made people fall asleep her class wasn't hard but this class was boring we went to the everglades i didn't even want to go but it was mandatory she gave out a few assignments that class overall is irrelevant.
ginny is a sweetheart overall the course is irrelevant attendance wasn't really mandatory but of course if you miss 3 or more days without telling her she will drop you and attendance was apart of this course. only 3 exams. she also took us to the everglades which was cool but a waste of my weekend. It's an Easy course to complete.
She will lecture till the very end of the class, does not use power points (very old school; hand written on board) Says the book is mandatory but I never opened it.. everything on her tests are covered in her lectures. I copied everything she wrote on the board and studied that. Participate, pay attention, and do her silly projects. you'll pass.
her voice is very soft the only problem is the course it's boring . overall take her we went to the everglades and also did 1 activity on campus with the class. the book was $50 plus tax you're going to need it anyways* and also we did 1 paper super easy. actually learned some interesting traits about yourself
This class was boring but for the most part its an easy class.. I only brought the online access code to do homework and exams.. Her lectures didnt really help me.. Had barely anything to do with the exams.. follow her syllabus and youll pass.. make sure you do all the online homework.. shes a nice lady
Professor Tenant is a brilliant Professor. Also, she is very nice and caring. Her lectures are brilliant and explains the material very well. I would definitely take her again. Ricardo J. Martin
This Professor is the WORST!!! do not take her if you want to pass this class. She gives a lot of homework assignments and the work are very long.
Dr. Peterson is one of the most nice and caring professor I have ever had. Her class was an easy A if you read the chapter and do the hw you will pass. The test are online and you can use the book. There are two written assignments and one power point which are very easy, as long as she sees that you tried she will give you an A.
Really good professor, not a hard class , a easy project , an easy paper and a letter . 3 test and thats it . I would take her again if I could .
I took Dr. Peterson for my psychology and IDH honors course, and she is amazing. In my opinion she is the nicest and caring professor at MDC, loves her job and will help you with your application process. We did a PBL project and I learned a lot. Caring, nice and understand the struggle of being a student. Take her, you will not regret!
She is a sweet professor. Her class isnt difficult. There is some writing involved however, its not difficult.
Such a kind woman and LOVES participation. Her work is super easy, her exams are based on chapters not a course overview. She is a slow grader and not very punctual but she is a good person easy grader. Easy class just actually do the work cause it's not a lot.
This teacher is amazing! The professor is very caring and understanding I really loved this class due to the fact it was really stressful. I would for sure recommend this professor.
Taught relevant and up to date material. Care about your career choices, yes a bit late but that gave the class enough time to be in place. Once she in every minute was used to prep and prepare us for the next chapter. Looking to see if she's teaching another one of my classes.
NEVER on time. Usually 15 minutes late or more to her alrdy short class. Lectures and extremely lengthy homework had nothing to do with her extremely difficult tests. (Literally lectured on child testing once and the test asked about homosexuality in giraffes). She never got through her complete lectures and ended late because of her own tardiness.
Her lectures are interesting and well-organized. Homework for this class is an easy A as long as you complete all of it, and the tests aren't all that complicated if you pay attention to the PowerPoints. She gives out projects throughout the year, but are simple and can be done in a few hours. My only concern is how she tends to arrive late.
Pay attention, write notes, ask questions and study she will be fair
If you are looking to take CLP1006, I recommend taking it with her! She is an amazing professor and wants students to improve themselves throughout the semester. Overall, she does require reading the chapters since there were only 3 exams and 2 written papers that were pretty okay.
Progressive thinker, traditional grader. Firm with grades. READ test questions and answers multiple times. Also, it is very comical to be graded on a stress journal.
The sweetest teacher Miami-Dade can have. Does not matter if you are late or have an emergency, extremely understanding. You do not feel left out in her class. Two presentations but you do not feel scared once you're in front of the class. Couple of exams and assignments, very easy. She makes lessons engaging and interesting, the absolute best.
We participated, we did yoga one time, she was nice, we had one project, 4 exams. As long as you read youre good, participate in class, and her class is super easy, there is no homework just study and read. There was a book requirement but i never had to buy it, we never used it.
Professional very understanding professor Peterson was the best I had her for 50 minutes blended course she was awesome would recommend.
Professor Peterson is a good person and it is not hard to get good grades in her classes but her lectures are hard to sit through. She talks slow and overexplains, making lectures feel tiring. She shows up like 15 minutes late every time and sometimes holds us back 5 minutes to finish her lectures. Might be better to take an online course.
I had a terrible experience. She dropped my grade twice for two assignments which moved me from an A to a C. She is very nit-picky about papers and is always late. Talked for 50 minutes directly from a PowerPoint she edits right before you). On the bright side, if you want a pretty easy class and are okay with being nit-picked take her.
Very nice, simple class with easy hw and tests.
She is super nice and sweet
She's great but her grading doesnt make sense and she was also late every class either 15 minutes or more and then would go overtime.
This professor lacks any professional courtesy, comes to class late 15-30 minutes late, doesn't send emails for when she doesn't attend and relies on word of mouth. I have never seen in my entire academic career seen someone come consistently late to every single class just to present one of the weakest PowerPoint presentations I have ever seen.
Peterson wasn't the best professor imo. Always late to class which was extremely annoying. I had her online in the summer and she always demanded we left our cameras on and wouldn't stop bugging abt it. Her attitude was always extremely unprofessional and she never seemed willing to help her students understand the subject matter. Work was easy tho
