Best Professor by far! If you have the opportunity to take her, you will be happy you did! She makes you WANT to go to class!!
If you have the opportunity to take a class from Irene, DO IT - even if it means 8am. She's so fun in class you'll forget how early it might be and she almost ALWAYS gives extra credit if you're in class.
East and entertaining! Do whatever it takes to get into her classes!
she was awesome! i recommend her if you are going to take her class. i had it at 8am but it was worth going to because she gave so much extra credit. GET HER.
Wow! One of my favorite professors of my college career! If you take P101, I HIGHLY recommend you take it with her. She gives so much extra credit (if you come to class) and her tests are easy! Plus she's just so much fun, so you want to come to class. Oh and she's hilarious!
had her for P101,102,211,324 I earned As in all four classes and they boosted my G.P.A. Without her, I would have learned nothing in Psych and had to drop out of college. It would be a shame to skip lecture, she gives so much and it kills me to see students being disrespectful to her. If you're waitlisted, she'll try to get you in the class.
Irene is a great professor. She is easy going and really, really nice. She uses real world scenarios in her teaching which can definitely help with understanding an abstract concept. Take her as much as possible!
She is AWESOME! Hate to going class at 8AM but it really worth it!! Guarante A if you attend every class and get extra credit! Study her notes and studyguide! = A
Very helpful, go to her office hours and she will go over exams, maybe even make grades better.
Oh my god! She's the best professor EVER! She's hilarious and makes everything crystal clear. She's extremely nice and helpful! I got all full marks for all the tests! She's just unbelievably good! Try everything to get to her class coz you'll regret not to.
Completely insane, but in a miraculous way. She is very expressive, can get your attention no matter how tired you are. Very helpful when you ask, and really an amazing teacher. Doesn't make you read the chapters, just gives you a list of questions and corresponding page numbers. Attendance is key, though.
She is hilarious and so much fun! Really makes class interesting! The best professor I have ever had!
Irene is hilarious. I really enjoyed this class. DO NOT buy the book because you only need it before tests to fill in the study guides. *Helpful hint(Check the book out at the library and do it there)
LOVE HER!!! She is seriously my idol, she makes learning fun....this has been my best classroom college experience ever!
Irene is definitely my favorite prof at IU! she makes class so fun and interesting because she is crazy! as long as you go over the study guide & notes the tests are easy. Irene is so helpful outside class too! I went to her office hours & she helped me improve my tests scores. she is so willing to help everyone, even on things outside of her class
Very good.
The best professor at IU! She is so funny that you want to come to class! Go to class because she does a lot of extra credit! Really easy if you show up and take notes!
superrrrrr fun class and really a great opportunity to learn psychology in a great environment....really liked her attitude and the way she taught the class
you will LOVE irene's class. it's easy to follow along in class because you fill in the notes and she shows lots of interesting video clips of real psych patients. you will laugh so hard during this class and learn a lot! one of my most enjoyable classes at IU :)
Wonderful lecturer, great woman. Lecture is incredibly easy to follow as she relates the material to everyday life. VERY enthusiastic.
LOVED her. Keeps class fun and interesting. Very understanding and accommodating. HIGHLY recommended.
AMAZING!! love her, she helps you out a lot, and is a great person! AMAZING personality too
The one class that I went to everyday because it was so awesome! I couldn't wait to go to her class, have a laugh, and learn my favourite subject! She is so awesome! WE LOVE YOU IRENE!
Best professor ever. You will love this class :)
legit person
Hands downt the best teacher I have ever had!
SHE IS AWESOMEEEEE, loved this class and the prof
So much fun! She keeps the students laughing and super interested. I have never enjoyed going to a class so much in college.
Such a fantastic professor. She is extremely helpful and cares a great deal about her students. She wants everyone to be successful and is very accommodating if you need help or have a personal problem.
Great professor! So helpful and gives examples throughout lecture to help students remember material. The best instructor I've had here yet.
She is amazing. She is really funny and a great instructor. She explains things clearly and gives a lot of examples. She has to be the best professor I've had so far.
She is awesome!! I have her at 8 am and I couldn't ask for a better prof at 8 am! She is hilarious and is very entertaining. She gets the material across to her students in a very humorous way. If you like to have fun in class and laugh a lot then you will love her!
I LOVED having her as a prof! She's great at getting the material across in an entertaining but still very clear way, and she's extremely helpful, really willing to go the extra mile. Not a lot of reading at all, and the class overall is really easy as long as you go to class (as well as very informative, I really did learn quite a bit)
Prof. Weber is hilarious and presents the material in a way that is completely relevant to the college lifestyle. There are daily opportunities for extra credit, if you come to class, and I always ended up wanting to come to class, even though it was an 8 am class.
I had Irene for P324 and P102. Definitely my favorite professor I've had at IU. Although she doesn't take attendance, I rarely missed a lecture because her class is so interesting and entertaining. Irene is absolutely hilarious and makes lecture enjoyable. Tests are fairly easy and she gives extra credit for attendance.
The only reason I would tell you not to take her class would be because I would want to fill the spot in her class-- SHE IS AMAZING! She loves her students and is passionate about what she does. She is also Hilarious and it is soooo easy to learn. She makes the material appealing and wonderful! TAKE HER CLASS!
She is amazing! So helpful and really engaging and hilarious in class. I'm leaving IU next year and she is definitely a teacher I will miss. Take her class, and you're guaranteed to get a good grade, learn the material, and enjoy it.
Irene is AMAZING! She is sooo hysterical, and so easy you will actually LOVE going to class. TAKE THIS COURSE
Irene is AMAZING. She is the best teacher, mentor, and person I have ever encounter in my entire life. Her sense of humor makes the already interesting materials even more fascinating. Attending her class is extremely enjoyable. And she is very willing to help. Her notes are very organized. She's amazing. Seriously, TAKE HER CLASS.
She is hillarious. You should take her class! She is so funny and makes you want to go to class! It's easy as long as you study notes and study guide! Take her class!
I adore Irene! She is absolutely hilarious, she will stop at nothing to teach her students, and I never want to miss her classes because they're so great. She is the perfect teacher to have! She's very happy to teach and she doesn't think we should do more than we have to so exams sometimes get shortened! Overall fabulous.
The most amazing professor at IU. You learn even when you feel like you're not learning! She has a way of getting off topic in the most focused productive way ever! I feel like her world would shatter if an entire class went without someone smiling or busting out laughing. Take her class. Everyone. Seriously, you will not drop out if you have her.
I can pretty much guarantee you that she will be the best professor you will ever have. You are really doing yourself a favor by taking her class, she is simply incredible.
Irene is so awesome. I had her at 8 ambut it was still one of my favorite classes because she is so hilarious. Best class I've taken so far at IU. Everyone should take her class!
Very fun teacher. you will love going to class. she types the note format for you all you have to do is fill in the blanks. test comes directly from the study guide and notes. Go to class; she's hilarious and its worth it! I'm putting off P102 until she teaches it next year!! she is THAT fun.
Irene is amazing! She is hilarious, and will keep the class focused and engaged for the entire time slot. Very intelligent and very helpful.
Irene is so amazing! She is probably the best professor that I will have at IU! Class is never boring and like other people have said, you learn without even knowing that you're learning. I'm waiting until next year to take 102 with her, because that's how awesome she is! Also, she's a professor who will learn your name, which is a huge plus.
Irene is the most amazing professor you will ever have. So kind, understanding, and genuinely concerned about you as an individual. EVERYONE should take a class with her. I'm taking an individualized research course with her and she's simply incredible. LOVE HER!!
SHE IS AMAZING! Most fun and interesting professor I have had yet. I made my best friend come to the class just to see how awesome Irene is! Take her for p101 because she makes the class fun! Extra credit for going to class as well!!! but you'll want to go anyways because she'll brighten up your day.
Irene is an amazing instructor! She mixes personal anecdotes with relevant course material to make a hilarious and educational lecture. This is one class you won't want to miss, even if it is on a friday evening!
Irene is fantastic. She's definitely one of the favorites in the department among students! Have to take from her!
TAKE VLACHOS-WEBER SHE IS A GODDESS. She is bright, funny, and it's hard NOT to pay attention in her class. Go to her office if you don't do so well on a test, and she'll curve the next one for you if you improve. Extra credit points are given almost every day, so go to class. Enjoy.
Best psych professor EVER!! You'll learn a lot in her class and never fall sleep.
literally the best psych professor i have ever had!! she is so helpful its unbelievable. going to class isnt mandatory but going helps tons. most of the test questions come from lecture.
Honestly, Irene is the best professor I have ever had. She is extremely understanding and cares for her students on an individual level. I would sit for over an hour outside of her office waiting to get into her office hours because that many ppl would be there. But it was worth it to me! She makes the subject interesting and learning fun! :)
Best professor ever. You like comedy, she gives you it. You will learn so much in her class. She is helpful, kind, considerate,and AWESOME. She will do whatever she can for you. This is a MUST HAVE professor. There is NO ONE else like her. She is a gem. I love Psychology because of her and other factors but she makes college fun.
Irene is definitely the best professor you will ever have. Try to get into as many classes as you can with her! She is amazing.
The BEST professor I've ever had. I choose to go to her class even though attendance isn't mandatory just because I feel better about myself afterwards. I wish she could teach my other classes.
Best professor on this campus, haven't met anyone who disagrees. Cares about students & makes sure you understand & are interested in every aspect of the class. If you're lucky enough to have a class with her; GO TO HER OFFICE HOURS, go over exams you didn't understand with her, she's funny, smart& understanding. I looked forward to EVERY class
She made class enjoyable with her funny, but helpful commentary. She is extremely helpful and wants her students to genuinely do their best. Her outlines and study guides are the test. She makes the test doable and doesn't try to trick you. She even gives out extra credit almost every class. She is just all around my favorite professor at IU!
She's a great teacher, and hilarious too!
I love her. She is a diamond of IU
She is my favorite professor in Indiana University. Very nice and kind to every students.
Irene is one of the best professors I have ever had! She genuinely loves her students and wants everyone to do well. Take her if you can!
She's a fantastic professor. She's one of the very best I've ever had, highly knowledgeable & compassionate. Funny as anybody I've ever seen, this is the professor you hope for when you come to college. She's a treasure and I learned so much from her. If you can get into her class you will never regret it! I love her! She was born to do this!
She is the GREATEST professor on the IUB campus. You are seriosuly missing out on your IU experience if you don't take a class with her. "Take a class with Irene" should be on the IU Bucket List.
Best teacher ever! She really tries to get to know each and every student. If you go to class you will learn a lot. She understands that things come up and is always willing to work with you!! Take her class even if your not a psych major. You will regret not having her as a teacher!! I Love her and had her for another class as well!!!!
She was the most wonderful teacher I've met.
Irene is amazing and really cares about her students, which I have found rare at IU in big lecture hall classes. From the first day of my freshman year, she has been my favorite prof of all time. Take all the classes you can with her! Oh, and don't bother getting the book for any of her classes. They're in the library.
Awesome!
Irene is the BEST. Her class is not mandatory, but I never missed it once because I loved attending her lectures. She is HILARIOUS, like the funniest person ever. I did not buy the book; I used the one on reserve at the library. because she tells you the exact info you need to pull, so I'd just take good notes and use that! Makes studying a breeze!
You shouldn't be at IU if you don't ace this class.
LOVE her. By far my favorite class I have taken at IU. Irene is a great prof, hilarious and super sweet. I was actually sad any time I couldn't make it to her lecture. Assignments and tests are not difficult, can easily get an A in the course. Definitely recommend the class for any major, psych or not!!
If you go to IU, you have not gotten the experience unless you have taken her class. She is by far the BEST professor out there. It is very hard to find a professor who can make a subject as interesting as she does!
Irene is literally the best professor. Couldnt think of a more loving, helpful and kind person.
Irene is the most helpful, knowledgeable, entertaining, and kind professor on this entire campus! By simply going to class you are able to do well! Irene makes the material fun and easy to understand!
Irene really cares about her students and is passionate about psychology. I always genuinely enjoyed going to her class!!
She is incredible. The best professor I have ever had. She goes out of her way to help every student and always has a smile on her face. Also, she is HILARIOUS during lectures. They are not mandatory, but I always went simply because it was like watching a live comedy show. She is the best, hands down.
She is truly the best professor I have ever had! She sincerely cares about each and everyone of her students and really wants them to succeed. If you can take this class! She is hilarious and you will want to go to class because she makes it so interesting. I love her!
Irene is very nice and funny but can be a bit disorganized and unclear. If you go to class, you can get a lot of extra credit, which is helpful, because the tests can be challenging. They involve multiple choice questions and short answer questions. To study for them, you just need to review your lecture notes and book notes over and over again.
Fantastic teacher! I actually wanted to come to class and learn. She makes the material relevant and easy to understand. If you come to class, take good notes, and pay attention, you will be fine. Definitely go over your notes several times before class. Attendance is not required, but it is beneficial if you come to class.
SHE IS THE BEST PROF EVER!
She's awesome!!!!
If you don't take her at least once during your four years here, you're making a mistake. Best professor ever. You will be laughing every minute of her lectures! HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
LOVED her! Absolutely recommend her to all. Knowledgeable, funny, and most personable professor I've had. Genuinely cares about student's well being. Abnormal is interesting to begin with and she does a great job teaching it. TAKE HER CLASS :)
Irene is the best! Her lectures are basically a comedy routine where you learn about psych disorders. She has outlines for you to print out; these guide the lectures. Tests consist of EVERYTHING covered in lecture (so make sure you go) and then test questions which she gives you a study guide for.
Irene is a goddess. She's one of the most hilarious, fun, interesting, knowledgeable professors I've ever had. No complaints. I learned a ton and had a great time along the way!
Probably one of the most intertwining teachers I have ever had. She actually made me want to come to class.. Even on Fridays. Most of the material is from class lecture, she specifies what you need to know in the book. Basically go to class get an A.
Irene is the best professor I've had at btown yet. She is hilarious & makes it very comfortable to ask questions. Although attendance is not mandatory, you should go if you want an easy A bc all of her exam questions are straight off lecture exams & she gives bonus points to those who go to class. Her class was awesome! TAKE THIS CLASS!!!!
Irene is the best psych teacher at IU. If you attend class and pay attention, there is no way you can fail. Just make sure to study those lecture notes!
she is the best prof ive ever had!
She's awesome!!!
you must take this class . she makes everything interesting, and tells many little stories that actually tie into the course materials which make it easier to learn and memorize.
Consistently voted best lecturer year after year. She is funny, articulate and simply the best professor I have ever had.
Best professor I have ever had. Definitely take this class.
She made my freshman year amazing! Take a course with her if possible!
Irene was my favorite professor I've had throughout college! She is absolutely hilarious - her jokes made people actually laugh out loud, not pity laugh. She is also very willing to help especially if she can tell you're willing to put in the time and effort. She really cares about her students and is very understanding. Also you get ec for going!
Irene is the bestmost hilarious professor there is. She makes lectures entertaining and content easy to learn. There are no assignments except exams and those are easy as long as you go to class and study the outlines she gives you. GO TO CLASS because she gives extra credit to those who go & tests are pretty much all lecture material.
Quite simply the best. You'll never have a professor who's more fair, understanding, helpful, hilarious, and caring than Irene. Oh, and you learn a lot while having tons of fun!
Irene is by far one of my favorite professors, there is not one person that isn't laughing hysterically in my lecture class of 400 when she cracks a joke, and she makes learning easy, relatable, and actually enjoyable. You have to attend class! Everything she says is fair game, and there's always extra credit in class!
Irene is wonderful. She genuinely enjoys teaching, which I think says a lot about her character. Her office is always open for students to stop by if they need help, food or even just want to chat. I am taking P102 with her this semester and arranged my schedule so that I could have P324 with her next! She's THAT good!!
Absolutely love Irene, laughed every class and learned a lot. easy.
She's the bomb. If you come to class you will get an A. Lectures are entertaining
Irene is not only an amazing professor that gives us great examples of the material, but is also really smart and is so funny, which really makes it easy to learn the material. Apart from being a fantastic lecturer, she also genuinely cares about her students and is extremely nice and compassionate. Tests are fair. I can't recommend her enough.
Hilarious, extremely nice and actually cares about her students. Her lectures are entertaining and if you go to her office hours she is extremely helpful. Would love to take another class with her.
I went into this class thinking I was going to take psych not have someone actually change my life. I was never a good test taker and she sat down with me and taught me how to take tests. It shows she really cares how her students do and is by far the hardest working professor I have ever had. As long as you write out your notes it's a very easy A.
The tests are kinda hard, but lectures are good and easy to follow, You have to attend every class as notes are not posted and no powerpoints. Very kind and amusing. Study hard for the tests, not book is needed to pass, just look up the book questions online for the study guide.
Irene is absolutely the best. She is hilarious, lectures are never dull, its like a comedy routine every lecture. She is helpful and wants students to succeed and presents the info in an interesting and engaging way. Go to class and take notes, study them a few times, fill out the book study guide and study it and you should get an A.
You must take her class, she's amazing!
Irene is amazing and really there for her students... have a problem in or out of class and she makes time for it! She also really knows her stuff and knows how to make class engaging and interesting... Go to office hours if you have any problems and come to class and you'll go great on tests
Irene is amazing and hilarious. I wish I could take this class again. She made psychology super interesting and easy and did all she could to make students succeed.
She's clear about what you need to know, presents material in a logical away, and is incredibly engaging in lecture. The only thing that is hard is learning what she says and doesn't write in her notes that will be on the exam, but that's it. Follow her instructions, and you'll have a great time. Textbook is to fill out a few questions per exam.
Irene is a world class gal. If you show up to lectures and put in the effort, she's willing to work with you on things that may need a little bumpboost. Make-up exams are flexible and getting the notes are easy. The biggest problem is that she is so popular with students and teaches 4 classes so she is often forgetfulunreliable (understandably).
AMAZING. Best professor I've ever had. She knows the material, understands when her students are confused, ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS, and is very passionate about what she's teaching. If never met anyone who said they disliked her as a professor. Do all that you can to take a class with her, you will not be disappointed!
Irene is literally the best teacher I ever had in my freshman year, she's so hilarious and caring !! Definitely choose her class!
Irene is hilarious. She really cares about her students. Doesn't always reply to emails, but she has an army of UTAs that can assist you. TAKE NOTES WHEN SHE SHOWS FILM CLIPS!
Irene is hilarious and is open to helping you with whatever you need if you just ask!
She is the most amazing teacher I have ever had! Go to class! Every time I came to class in a bad mood, I left happy and excited. She makes a tough calls interesting. She goes above and beyond her teacher role. I love her.
Hands down, Irene is one of the best professors at IU hilarious and super helpful! She genuinely cares about her students and is willing to meet with you during her office hours to go over tests in an attempt to receive points back.
As a senior, I can confidently say that Irene was by far the best professor I have had in all 4 years of college. She is informative, easy-going, and firmly believes that every student should be able to work hard and succeed. You will find yourself wanting to come to class! l would highly recommend trying to take any of her courses.
Irene is by far the best teacher I have had at IU, and I graduate this year. She truly cares about students learning and enjoying the material. She is the type of teacher who will spend hours helping you out if you need it, and she really wants her students to succeed. She has clear study guides and is super clear about what is on the tests.
Irene is probably one of the best and funniest teachers. She genuinely cares for her students and always keep lectures engaging. Never dreaded going to her class as she always had funny stories or other things. Definitely recommend taking any course possible with her simply amazing.
She's an amazing teacher, absolutely hilarious. I laughed every single lecture, even on test days she cracks jokes. Don't bother buying the book, it's useless. Only time you need a book is for test reviews, but you can check one out in the UTA offices. Definitely not worth the price. Take her class if you get the chance
I think I may have stumbled upon one of the best professors out there. Irene truly cares about her students and promotes an open door policy; she is always there for you. Her notes are clear and the class is truly a blast and, despite being a 400 person lecture, is more entertaining than a night out with your friends! Absolutely take her, amazing!
Best professor Ive ever had! Hilarious, good natured, and truly cares about her students. Makes it to where you understand material and helps a lot if you have test anxiety.
BEST PROFESSOR OUT THERE
Just great. I love her so much. She is one of the best professors I had in IU. But you gotta study your notes.
hilarious. mom af. best prof I've ever had. makes lectures interesting, I look forward to her class .
Take this class if you do not need to actually learn the information. I am pre-med and needed to go over things more, but when I asked for help she would say that these things weren't on the test so she didn't want to go into it. If this was a class that I did not need, then I would love it because she gives out As for days. She is really nice tho.
I chose psych 101 over other intro courses I was interested in (like sociology) BECAUSE Irene was the professor. Irene's lectures are engaging and dare I say FUN to attend. Still, she manages to relay all the important info needed for exams & understanding of the info. She's hilarious, compassionate, and intelligent. Would recommend.
It was a joy to come to Irene's lectures. She made the material super interesting and made the 1 1/2 hr lecture fly by. I even decided to pursue a Psych minor and am taking her Abnormal Psych class because I loved it so much! She overs lots of extra credit if you show up. Didn't use much of the textbook though, recommend borrowing instead of buying
Irene is by far my favorite professor, if you get her for psych consider yourself lucky. She makes every lecture exciting and I genuinely wanted to go. She is so goofy, loud, and crazy. Lectures are fun and easy, and she tells you exactly what will be on the exams. She posts study guides from the book that aren't covered in lecture so do those!
Irene is love. Irene is life. Take every class that you can with her. Seriously. She's the best. I took 102 and 324 with her and TA'd for her. Great lady and wonderful professor. If you need ANYTHING you can talk to her.
Favorite professor I have ever had. Has the most amazing stories that she relate back to the topic. I learned so much!
This is a class in Dr. Weber's own mental illnesses and those of her family. Entire class is her anecdotes, which are usually pretty amusing. Kids like her because tests are easy, extra credit is plentiful, and she is motherly. If you are actually interested in learning about abnormal psychology, however, you're out of luck.
Irene is AMAZING!! She is always always there to help! Attend her office hours and the TA's because they are all amazing people. Best class! I generally enjoyed going. Attendance wasn't mandatory but It was my favorite class of the day. Definitely would take again and for my future psych classes I will take anything she teaches!!
She's is a remarkable teacher with remarkable talents. She is funny, engaging, and friendly. Talking to her is the best part of the class, and her interest of each student shows through. The material is rouge memorization, but she gives good advice in how to take approach to learn the material. She works for you! This alone sets her apart!
One of the best professors at IU! Her exams are tougher than most psych exams are but if you show up to EVERY class and go over your notes a lot before the exam you'll be okay.
Amazing Irene helps with anything you need
I laughed every day in this class. By far the best psyc 101 professor, but you have to go to class as she doesn't post the notes online. Drops your lowest exam grade and gives extra credit on random days just for coming to class. Also, no textbook so you never have to read long, boring chapters which is a bonus. TAKE PSYC 101 WITH IRENE!
Irene has been my favorite professor in college so far. Her lectures are hilarious and interesting and she is an overall great person. Go in and see her in office hours and she will help you with any questions or problems.
Irene is the greatest teacher ever. This class is super easy and fun. Just go to class and listen. Extra credit points are given almost every class. No homework/No textbook so for that always go to class and take notes. Easy A.
I have never come across a professor more amazing than her. She truly cares about the students and her classes are a pleasure to attend. If I could do college over again, I would make sure I took more classes taught by her. She is a blessing for her students.
Irene is a phenomenal educator, focused on teaching in a way that ensures students remember things well after test day. I decided to minor in psych just so I could take more classes with her! For those with test anxiety, Irene will meet to discuss all exam questions and to offer help. Strategies I learned in this class are still with me today!
IRENE IS AMAZING. I was struggling with getting good grades on the tests, so she took it upon herself to help me individually to make sure I got the grades I wanted. She's so caring and so funny, she laughs at all her own jokes in class and is adorable. If I needed another psych credit, I would take one of her classses HANDS DOWN.
Irene is amazing and super funny and helpful. Lowkey the best P101 professor
This is the 2nd class of Irene's that I've taken and I wish I could take more! For any underclassmen that are curious-- TAKE AS MANY OF IRENE'S CLASSES' AS YOU CAN! A phenomenal professor and person overall.
Irene is the best teacher out there, hands down. Her lectures are the funniest thing you will ever encounter and yet she covers the material. Being a Freshman, you get that "I want to skip that class because why should I go" feeling, but with Irene, I literally can't wait until her lectures! Plus she gives you free answers if you have test anxiety.
Irene is seriously one of the funniest people I've encountered. I love going to class because I know I will learn so much and laugh my way through class. Her tests are not difficult if you go to lecture and take good notes. Nothing from the book is on the tests.
If you have the opportunity to have Irene as a professor, don't hesitate. She's amazing.
Prepare to be shocked by the exams in this class. While the lectures are interesting, they are also confusing and unorganized. That being said, the professor makes you buy the online text book just so you can do the homework on it for a few points; the book material, however, is not on the exams. All exams are lecture-based. Prof. is kind, though.
She is super funny and nice. She is really easy and theres barely any homework. **** Her tests are only what is discussed in lecture, so pay attention and take good notes and you will be fine.**
Best. Class. Ever.
The most amazing professor I have ever had hands down. Extreamly accommodating to every individual student in office hours. It is very obvious she cares about each student. Lectures are hilarious, easy to understand, and easy to pay attention to. Information is also very well explained. I love her.
Irene is a fantastic professor because she breaks the mold of the typical professor. Her class is like an educational stand up routine. I learned a lot and am now considering a minor in Psychology because of this course and professor. Everyone should take this course, especially if you need a science credit.
So funny she made the class exciting and always told stories
BEST TEACHER AT IU! Try your best to take a class with her before you graduate. She makes every lecture interesting and I was always engaged. She is hilarious and she cares about every student. Also, if you go to class and pay attention, you will be prepared for all of the tests.
Irene is a great professor. She cares for all of her students and will go the extra mile to make sure you enjoy her class.
Irene is a fantastic professor. She likes the material and provides great and funny examples to make everything easier to understand. If you go to class and take good notes, you will do well in this class.
Prof Irene is so funny and she can be so relatable believe it or not! She is so understanding so don't be afraid to go to office hours if you are having any troubles with anything! Her class isn't very hard, just listen carefully to the lecture and take good organized notes and you'll be fine.
my fav
Great teacher, easy class
Best teacher literally ever.
Irene was very helpful and explained the material very well. It is obvious she really cares about her students. She is also hilarious and is very helpful even during the tests.
Irene is by far the best professor that has ever passed through IU. Please don't ever leave Irene!
Take this class even if you aren't a psych major!
She's an amazing teacher who keeps the class engaged. She makes material easy to understand and fun to learn.
Literally my favorite professor so far. She'll have you laughing during the entire lecture. Shows lots of funny videos, has lecture guides online, is just overall amazing. TAKE HER CLASS!
Irene was fabulous, but her TAs to everything for her. I had a lot of trouble communicating with her because she seemed a little inaccessible sometimes. Her lectures were fun and easily understood, but show up because some of the material not in the notes will be on the test.
PLEASE GET IRENE. She is an actual angel!! Absolutely my favorite professor I have ever had at IU.
Irene is hands down the best professor I had at IU. I signed up for 18 credit hours just so I could take another one of her classes.
I will remember her class for forever. She takes time to care not only about student education but also student well being. She is also insanely hilarious. If you have the chance to take one of her classes, DO IT!
Irene is genuinely as great as all of the reviews say. She took the time to really work with me when I was having a rough semester (death, appendix bursting)-GO TO HER OFFICE HOURS! She made the material instantly engaging, and her funny lectures made remembering everything even easier. You can tell she has experience with the subject.
She is so positive and she cares about her students. I have never been taught by a better educator. Keep going!
By far, one of the best professors imaginable. Second class with her and I can't get enough.
Best professor I've had so far. Will definitely be taking another class with her.
Irene is by far one of the kindest and most helpful professors I've ever had at IU. She goes above and beyond to make sure you understand the material and genuinely cares whether or not you do well in class. She even had me set up meetings outside of her office hours so she could help me with grad school application stuff. 10/10 amazing woman
I took her psych 100 class and she was amazing. At the end of the semester I had a 92% and went into her office hours and she raised it to a 93%. Would for sure take again and made me love psych. If you are going to do a psychology class at IU, take it with Irene.
This classes requires four credits of psychology experiments (easy). Irene teaches her classes so that the class is enjoyable for the students. She lectures in a way which is easy to understand. You use an online textbook, which doubles as a workbook (and free points in class).
Awesome teacher. Super funny, makes lectures interesting. Minimal homework. Going to class is the best way to prepare for tests, everything she lectures on is relevant & will probably be on the test. One of my favorite teachers.
Irene is perfect. There's no other description for her. Attend class, take well written notes, and then review them often and her class is simple. Don't go to class, don't review the notes, then you blew the class off. Highly enjoyable, extremely comical and witty, and just a great class to take.
Irene is literally amazing! She's so sweet! Very amusing to listen to during class. She's goofy, knowledgeable and engaging. Just go to class and take good notes. All her tests are made from the notes coming out of her mouth, not through the textbook. Also go to all classes, sometimes she offers random extra credit! Highly recommend!!!
Irene was my favorite teacher my freshman year of college. She always made lecture fun and enjoyable. I had this class on a Friday and always wanted to go because she made it not suck so bad! The quizzes are all online and an easy A. The notes taken in class are exactly whats on the tests. Gave extra credit a few times for being there on a Friday!
Dont understand all of the hype behind Irene as a teacher. Extremely annoying during class, refuses to put notes online, and tests are annoying. She is also extremely disorganized and makes you wait over an hour during office hours. She is very nice though and will add points to your tests if you go to office hours.
Shes great. She really cares about all her students and the class is pretty easy.
I LOVE IRENE! She is amazing and easy to understand, she's very helpful when it comes to test taking and understanding the material.
Irene is by far the most amazing professor I have had my entire life. She is HILARIOUS and has no filter. Her tests are very easy/straightforward IF you attend class. She lets you drop your lowest grade and there is no homework,. She tells you the test essay questions ahead of time/what to scan for in the textbook (dont actually read the chapter)
Irene was the best teacher I ever had at IU. I had her for both P101 and 102 and she was awesome in both. I would recommend her to any student at this university.
One of my favorite professors by far! Very funny, makes psych very enjoyable even with a huge class size! Literally tells you what will be on each exam in the notes, posts study guides online. Although you must earn 4 study credits online and in person, its a breeze if you plan ahead of time!
So funny and interesting to listen to! Never a boring lecture.
Prof. Weber is amazing and is the reason I decided to minor in Psych. She can be disorganized but if she doesn't fit something into her lecture she won't put it on the exam. She's hilarious and tells lots of anecdotes as examples for concepts. If you show up and take decent notes you'll be fine, and she drops your lowest exam score from your grade.
Very nice, funny woman and gives entertaining lectures. My friend who is a psych major said to take psych with her because she is "easier" than other professors. Grade is completely based on exams (6) in 101 but she drops your lowest score. Attendance is not mandatory, but you have to go to get notes and she basically tells you everything on exams.
The best teacher Ive ever had. Her lectures were so enjoyable and she was so easy to approach if I did not understand something. She really cares about her students and is absolutely HILARIOUS. Her tests are easy. I really enjoyed this class and would take it again with her.
Irene is a great professor and absolutely hilarious. Along with her amazing sense of humor, she really knows what she is talking about. She is extremely knowledgeable and makes it easy for students to understand. She separates the semester into 6 exams instead of a midterm and final, which is very useful. I would definitely take this class again!
I really enjoyed this class. Her lectures are incredibly entertaining yet informative. She literally tells you exactly what is going to be on the tests. Fairly easy class as long as you put in the time to learn the information. Ill be taking p102 next semester with her.
This woman is literally a god. She is super funny and the material is easy to study. There's only 6 exams. No homework for grades to fall back on. (go to office hours)
Irene, words do not describe the impact she can make. Hands down, she is the best instructor I have ever had. She cares about the students, and not just in success with school, but more so livelihood. When the semester starts to fall apart, she picks it back up and helps you recover from the daunting last minutes to finals.
There is a reason she is the instructor everyone wants to UTA for. She is perfection! Even after taking so many of her classes, I still learn from her. Why? She relates the topics to today, and not to yesteryear. Irene is a goddess, without her IU would be a rut.
For one of my most dreaded gen-eds, Irene made this class so fun. If you need to get an N&M out of the way and don't want too terrible of a class, this is the way to go. Irene had me laughing constantly throughout the professor. Also, if you are ever struggling, do not hesitate to talk to her about it, she will be more than willing to help you out!
One of the most kind, thoughtful professors I've ever had! Definitely recommend taking one of her courses!
Irene is the best professor that I have had since being at IU. She is so genuine and she truly cares about every single one of her students. She is very understanding, going to her office hours and making sure she knows who you are will get you very far in her class.
Irene is super laid back and really funny. The class definitely isnt a blowoff, but its not difficult if you study for the tests. She is VERY understanding. She also drops your lowest test score (there are 6 tests) and there is no final exam.
GREAT PROFESSOR!! helps so much if needed or struggling. Would recommend her to anyone!
Literally my favorite professor at IU, convinced me to change to a psych major
She's incredibly kind and respectful and presents the material in an interest way -- however your grade is based entirely on exams (1 of which you can drop), so while attendance isn't mandatory, she likes to say "everything that comes out of my mouth is gold," so it's important that you attend anyway or get notes from someone who is thorough.
She's such a funny and down-to-earth person! She's very understanding if you tell her things that are happening that may conflict with classes and exams. She tries to find a way to make her lectures relate to the students and things we deal with daily or monthly as a student in college. LOVE HER!!!
Irene is known as the Queen of Psychology at IU due to her overflowing well of knowledge as well as being comedic and relatable to her students and is very well liked. Lectures are easy to follow and understand. Tests are the only grades she has and these can be difficult but you just have to set aside plenty of time to study.
Irene is AMAZING. I had her for 101 and 102 and I plan on taking abnormal with her if I can get in (her classes fill up quick!) She is hilarious and makes you want to study and learn the material. She is one of the most genuine and caring profs I've had at IU and I wish I could take every class with her.
She is the best professor I've had at IU, so impressive. She is always there to help, even if I am an international student, I still get the most ideas in the class. Too good to be ture. Still miss this professor at OSU.
I took every class Irene offers, shes amazing and truly cares about the success of students. Theres a reason she is reviewed so much, and its because she cares about us all. This is more of a senior class and supposed to be enjoyable and that breath of fresh air during final semester. Take it. Youll love every moment.
Irene was by far the best professor I have ever had. She is so funny and makes her classes enjoyable. I needed accommodations and she made my testing so easy. She really spent the time to meet with me one on one and review materials before and after exams. If you can take Irene's classes.
Makes sure her lectures are fun. Is always in a great mood and makes learning interesting. One of the funniest and most entertaining professors I have ever had.
She is a fantastic lecturer and all the other reviews here are accurate. However, she has terrible control over her class. She ignores people talking and makes it hard to hear in what is already a terrible classroom. Please tell students to be quiet!!
Irene is awesome and if you study you should not have a problem with 101. The class size is usually huge (mine was almost five hundred) so it can be hard to reach her through email, but she is very good about office hours.
Irene is literally the best professor that Ive ever had being at IU. She cares about her students deeply and want to see you succeed. She is very inspirational and advocates for her students. She makes psychology fun and does a great with applying the concepts to real life events. I would recommend taking all of your psychology courses with Irene.
THE best professor at IU. Exams are your only grade. Difficult, but not if you STUDY! Exams come from notes so go to the lectures- they're fun. There are also a few things from the book. She will give you a study guide with the questions- easy. Lowest test score is dropped and final is optional. She is very helpful, I heard office hours are useful
LOVE HER SO MUCH! Irene is super chill, super funny, and really nice. Her lectures go kinda fast sometimes, so beware of that, but overall it's an easy class. No homework, you only get grades on tests (which is awesome to me, bc the tests were easy). Textbook was online, and we had questions to study from the book for the exams. A great class.
IRENE IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST PROFESSOR YOU WOULD EVER MEET. She is great at what she is doing - teaching and she teaches with great passion and genuine care for students but also with clarity and very systematic. Even if you dont need to take PSY for credit and looking for a good time - GO TO HER LECTURE. Literally a stand up comedy. LOVE IRENE!
i love this lady so much. her class is pretty easy and theres multiple opportunities to make up points, but with any class the best way to pass is to study. she cares about her students so much and her lectures are the BEST. my favorite professor so far
A great professor to be around. It feels like you know her even if you sit in the back row and have only spoken to her once.
Super awesome, nice, and passionate. Had her for an online class due to COVID-19 but she provided great attention and care to each student nonetheless. Despite her large class size, she took the time and effort to grade everyone's responses individually and provided kind words of constructive feedback. I wish I had her for in-person lectures!
Professor Weber is hilarious! Her lectures are super fun and she makes sure to make psychology relatable to the students. Exams are easy, make sure to take good notes.
Irene was my favorite professor at IU. She is kind, caring, and makes her lectures genuinely interesting. She is knowledgable but talks to students as if they are learning (which we are), and not as if we should already have an intensive background in pscyh. She is extremely willing to meet with students and truly wants to help everyone. Love her!
Thinks she is hilarious but she is annoying and offensive and inconsiderate of peoples feelings. Makes fun of people with psychological disorders. Cant believe professors are allowed to talk this way in class. On the plus side, easy A, no need to do much at all because she tells you exactly what is on the exam. Does not answer email.
You dont actually have to know any psychology to get an A, but you do have to listen to her attempts at humor. Doesnt help that some kids egg her on to say more and more outrageous things. its cringy. Just study what she tells you to put on exams and you will do fine.
Irene is an amazing professor! She has an elaborate sense of humor and knows how to keep her students attention. Class is based mainly on tests, with a few assignments and discussions here and there. Going to office hours will really help you learn the material! :)
I cannot say enough good things about this professor and her course. She is easily the most understanding, genuine, and funny professor I have had. Homework isnt difficult, exams are fair, and she really wants to see you succeed not just in this course. I went to her office hours just to vent and work through issues in my life, shes amazing!!
Her lectures are hilarious and intriguing. She is incredibly caring and wants to help in whatever way during office hours. Easy class if you pay attention. Would highly recommend!
Favorite Prof here at IU so far. She's so supportive and understanding, plus she is unbelievably funny. Her lectures can be lengthy but she makes them super enjoyable. Plus quizzes are incredibly easy so long as you listen. She obviously loves her job and what she teaches. 100/10 recommend psych with Vlachos-Webber.
Irene definitely makes her lectures interesting. She goes off topic A LOT but Ive still learned a lot. She pushes her liberal views pretty hard on students and takes forever to put homework grades in, but other than that I would recommend her classes!
Irene is a phenomenal professor to have. The only professor here that tries to get students interested in what she has to say, and it works. She is absolutely hilarious, and tries to help with extra credit and whatnot.
Such an amazing professor. I loved having her this semester and will definitely be taking another class of hers.
Amazing prof. Super genuine and cares about her students.
BEST PROF EVER. She is so funny and made lecture's super interesting. We had no final and only 6 quizzes. Assignments were easy too. I had friends in other P101 classes who had lots of work and quizzes but Irene is so amazing. She actually will make you laugh out loud in class. Please please please do yourself a favor and take any class with her.
Irene is a very caring professor. She understands that students have things to worry about outside of class, so she is lenient with assignments. She is always available and her class is super easy.
Irene is such a caring professor and her class is very student-centered. As long as you show up to most classes and pay attention (which isn't hard because she keeps you interested) you'll do well. There are no big exams and the assignments are fairly easy.
Literally the best Professor ever! Not only were her lectures amazing but she also helped me with my personal issues in her office hours. She supported me and motivated me to do better, If you want to learn psychology, have fun and get a good grade, enrol in her class. Irene is the most amazing and fun person I have met. BEST PSYCH PROF EVER!!!!!!!
The absolute best! So caring, truly loves what she does
Irene is the best professor here that I've met so far. She's caring and she makes it easy for you to get an A. You just have to talk to her. She can be a little hyper during class but she's such a great person to be around! I RECOMMEND taking her TOTALLY.
I've take three classes with Irene and she is absolutely amazing. Very passionate and funny, doesn't just make herself available to students, but LOVES to help students outside of class. Probably the best teacher I've had here.
One of the best professors at IU!
Best professor at IU!
Irene was probably one of the best professor's I've ever had. She truly cares about her students, and that is reflected in the way she teaches. Though this is a lecture based class, she always brings an incredible energy. I found that I could succeed without attending lectures (because she posts notes), but I still wanted to attend class anyways!
Great teacher love her class
Best teacher ever she really wants you to pass the class and will help by any means necessary.
Irene is amazing
LOVE HER
Irene is hands down the best professor at IU. She makes her lectures so fun and easy to understand. She really cares about her students and will go out of her way to help you. I highly recommend going to her office hours if you ever need extra help, especially with exams. Irene truly deserves the world, she is amazing.
She is the absolute best professor here at IU. Very understanding that things happen and would cancel classes before holidays and give students plenty of time to get assignments done. Every quiz is posted with notes that will literally give you an A on the quiz. Definitely have her as a professor if you are considering taking psychology courses.
Easily the best professor at IU. She made learning fun somehow and I recommend her to anyone who needs to take a psychology course!
Super fun, super easy, makes learning about disorders hilarious! Breezy lectures are like a comedy show, and you don't even have to go to class to get good grades, so you will be glad you got into her class. THere's a reason her sections fill up first. She's such a nice lady, you will love Irene.
Irene was amazing. She made psychology very fun and her lectures are intriguing. She made things easy to learn.
She truly loves what she teaches and makes learning psychology easy
If you have the option to take a class with this professor, TAKE IT! She is amazing and hilarious, and she will make sure you are thoroughly prepared for any assignment she gives. Lectures are so fun and she is willing to meet with you outside of class if you need some extra help. She is brilliant and so sweet. AMAZING professor!
This class was really really easy but also encouraged learning. Irene is so funny and cares about her students. There isn't many grades that go in but she gives you a lot of time to complete assignments and the work load is very manageable. I will only take psych classes that she is teaching from now on.
She is an amazing professor that truly cares about the success of her students. She is just a very loving person and one of the most amazing people on the planet. I will never speak a word against her and will constantly say that she is the best professor on this campus.
I am a business major and was taking these classes to get my Natural Sciences credits and this class was one of my favorites at IU. Irene is hilarious, and a very good lecturer, and her topics are very interesting. She cares a lot about her students and does quite literally everything in her power to help you pass.
Irene is a great human, she struggles with ADD so that is harder for her to focus. While in class you will be talking about one thing and then she will start randomly talking about sex, former president trump, or cussing. She is very understanding when it comes to assignments majority of them were done in class, and quizzes were open notes.
Very understanding and easy to work with. She uses lots of modern references and current events to help tie into lecture and it is very effective.
She is an amazing understand and cares for her students! It is important that you go to her office hours if you're struggling in her class or scored low on an exam.
Irene knows a lot about the subject and really cares about her students. Occasionally gets off topic in lectures, but is very funny. Attendance is not necessary and the class is an easy A if you stay up on the assignments and quizzes. No final either
TAKE THIS CLASS!!! Irene is absolutely amazing and makes Psychology actually fun. There are 6 online quizzes, your worst gets dropped, and 16 assignments, your worst 3 get dropped. Extremely easy and fun. Don't make the mistake of taking P101 with any other professor. Can't stress enough how great Irene and her class is
Easily the best professor at IU. She is so funny and so sweet. Easiest class I have ever taken. All the tests and homework are online. Take psych 101 with Irene trust me!!!!
Such a sweet and funny professor! Literally the easiest class I've ever taken. Her lectures were enjoyable, she provided the full notes for every take home quiz, and there was no actual final besides the last take home quiz (and one quiz is dropped). Assignments were so easy and quick. You can tell she cares deeply about her students.
Irene is the BEST professor at IU. Not only does she do a good job, she is HILARIOUS. Class was so easy, notes are published on Canvas and quizzes are online. No final, and lowest quiz grade is dropped at the end of the semester, 3 assignments per quiz (module). Amazing experience, take the class no matter what.
Irene is such a good professor honestly is probably the best professor here at IU. She cares about her students and makes learning so enjoyable. Definitely take her class! You do not have exams, only take home quizzes and they are so easy.
Irene is the BEST professor at IU!!!
The most understanding and wholesome professor/teacher I have ever had. Truly cares more about her students more than she cares about the class. Extremely understanding about attendance, all quizzes were online. Cannot recommend her enough.
irene is the easiest professor at iu, she is very understanding and caring. you dont even have to show up to this class to get an A. I would totally recommend irene over any other professor for psych.
Funny, inspiring, will show genuine care towards her students. 10/10
Irene is by far the most caring, fun, and understanding professor! When I was having a tough week, just talking to her allowed me to find better test-taking and studying methods. Though she gets on random tangents in class sometimes, I enjoyed learning psychology through her relatable examples. She truly cares and helps every student that asks!
She's hilarious and amazing. If you need help, she's so willing to help and even though she has so many students she'll go above and beyond to make sure you get help.
Though she can go on tangents that are not related to the lecture, she is an incredible prof. No one cares about their students more than she does.
She is very accessible out of class and cares a lot about her students. She teaches hundreds of students but puts the time in to meet with them, brings extra pencils during tests amongst other things, and is incredibly understanding. One of the best professors I have ever had.
Irene is literally the most caring, attentive, and funniest professor I've ever had. Her lectures are incredibly engaging, and she goes above and beyond to ensure every student understands the material. She is truly exceptional.
Irene is one of the best professors I have had. Just go to class and study and you should get an A.
Take this class. You don't have to go to class for an A, but I always do because she's so funny. Going to class is genuinely like watching standup. She tells random stories but always ties it back to the lecture in a fun &memorable way. There's like 5 hw assignments; somtimes we do them as a class & everyone who showed up gets credit.
Great professor who cares for her students! Her lectures are extremely engaging and are very enjoyable. I disagree that you can skip every day and get an easy A. At least in P102, there are in-person quizzes and attending lectures is very important for context. The quizzes are not super difficult, but you will probably need to study to get an A+.
Irene made my college career. Never have I had a professor that cares so much about the content but convey it in a way that is so engaging and accessible. I'm taking Neuroscience now because of how she did this course. I'm not only a better student because of Irene, but I'm a better human too.
Irene is the BEST PROFESSOR EVER. I seriously have never met a professor that has made me want to learn more and to want to have as a mentor. Irene is such a personable professor and person, seriously the sweetest soul and treats you as though you are her child in the sense of caring for each student. RECCOMEND P101/P102 EVEN IF NOT PSYCH MAJOR!!
Yeah they say you remember professors and she is one of them. The criteria is laid out very well and for quizzes, just honestly look through the notes because her notes are exactly what you should know on the tests, even highlighted. If i could put her in my pocket and take her everywhere with me I would, 10/10
Irene is just straight up the best. She is such a caring individual and really wants you to succeed in and out of the classroom. She is always willing to answer any question you have. Her lectures are hectic but oh so much fun; she is constantly cracking jokes and really enjoys the things she is teaching.
I never actually went to this class so I don't know much about the person, but all her notes are posted online and her quizzes are really easy (answers are word-for-word from the notes). She even drops your worst quiz grade. Attendance isn't mandatory, which is nice.
She is so great, all of her lectures are very understandable and she's very funny. She truly cares about students and all of the tests were exactly on what we covered. The homework was also very manageable.
I mean...the reviews speak for themselves. Most hilarious professor Ive ever had and Im literally dying to take another class with her. Do study a little bit for the quizzes she does cover a decent amount of stuff that you'll need to remember. Wonderful woman, incredibly interesting class. No regrets at all.
Irene is genuinely the BEST!! I took her class over the summer through the groups scholars program and loved her so much. Every day is a lecture but it was never boring. She is very interactive with our class and cares so much for all her students. Her UTA's were also very helpful and always available if you're struggling.
Irene is a very nice person. If you are looking for an easy A, take her class. If you want to actually learn the material that is supposed to be taught in P101 and be adequately prepared for upper-level psych courses, take someone else. Sometimes she teaches at a middle school level and spends ways too much time on simple topics.
The amount of hand-holding in the class is mindnumbing. I feel like I am back in elementary school. We spent 3 days talking about how to take a multiple choice test and study for it. The entire first exam is just "for fun." The class is an easy A, but I feel like I haven't even learned anything yet and we are getting ready for the first exam.
Irene is amazing. Super funny and always keeps your attention. Attendance isn't mandatory, but you'll definitely want to go because the tests are tough and in person. She posts notes online, but they don't replace being in class. The best part is you can ask her about exam questions during the test and she'll guide you in the right direction.
She is the best and nicest professor I've ever had in my whole life. I wish you could teach all my classes.
She is the most caring and nicest professor ever and she keeps the class engaged with her sense of humor. I have never genuinely laughed at a teacher's joke but she's hilarious. The sweetest person ever and makes everyone feel seen.
Irene is the funniest professor I've ever had. She also deeply cares for every single student. She will help you through anything you need! She was truly a breath of fresh air within my classes.
Irene is a good professor. Her lectures are informative and engaging, and the assignments are easy. However, she sometimes seems a little scattered and can be hard to reach by email. The class is easy, and you could definitely pass without ever studying if you showed up to lecture. All in all she is a good professor and the class is worth a take.
Irene is the best! She can definitely be a little scatter-brained but she truly cares about her students more than any professor. She made P101 so nice and easy to digest. She also drops your lowest quiz grade, and there isn't a cumulative final for the course. Just make sure to get your studies done and don't procrastinate studying for quizzes.
LOVE HER SO MUCH. She really cares about her students and takes the time to listen to what they have to say. She makes her classes very enjoyable, attendance is not required but you will want to go.
I'm a senior, and Irene is by far one of my favorite professors I've had in my time at IU. She's hilarious and you can tell she really cares about her students. Her lectures are always entertaining and quizzes are pretty easy if you study the notes she posts on Canvas. I would highly recommend taking a class with her if you can!
Professor Vlachos-Weber is simply the best. All that needs to be said.
I did not go to her lectures. She posted all of her notes online. Easy class to take if you need a Gen ED credit.
So much extra credit. Just do all her assignments. She is so funny. No final.
Irene is truly great. She can be hilarious and honestly would be even more hilarious if IU wasn't actively trying to censor their professors. I'll be honest though she is incredibly disorganized and at times I noticed she was passive aggressive to students, including myself when I was in her office hours. Overall though, I highly recommend her
