Professor Snell was absolutely amazing. Throughout assignments, she was very interactive and gave good feedback. We did read quite a few articles and watch some documentaries but nothing crazy. I would recommend this course!

You do 1-2 discussion posts a week. No lecture videos, no study guides. You must keep up with the chapter readings there is usually 2 chapters assigned every week. If you fall behind on the readings you will struggle w/the exams, some of the Qs will be from discussions as well. Time manage & set aside a lot of time to read and write notes.

Her Counseling Techniques class in person is amazing. Be on time to her class, ask questions, and do your assignments and you'll be fine. One chapter activity each week, and we do role plays! If you are planning in being a therapist, this class is it. She is very organized and gives great feedback, and her lectures are very interesting.

She was a good professor, although her lectures did not cover all the material she made it fun to learn about. The textbook was expensive and there are discussions every week. I loved the options for books and videos we had to watch/read. The tests were not super difficult or super easy.

Take PSYC 3790 (Counseling Theories) with Professor Jin or Vasquez. Snell's class is just stressful. The course consisted of LONG Discussion Assignments, TOUGH Quizzes, A homework Paper, and a ridiculous 5-page Final Reflection Assignment based on a book. Snell is also VERY rude when you email her for clarification on assignments. AVOID her.

I was a little intimidated when taking this class from her expectations. She pays attention to what you write. Consist of 4 sectioned chapter quizzes, 14 discussions, documentary reflection paper, and topic case study. Pretty easy class just take notes and read then you will be fine! You watch some documentaries and read articles.

Quizzes are stressful for no reason. Literally finished a 34 question test with only 2 min to spare. Lectures are rushed and didn't want to provide the slides in fear that people won't show up to class even though attendance is mandatory. If you can avoid this class study with a professor that wants to see their students succeed.

Her Psych of Women course was challenging because the discussions required you to answer to multiple questions. Her quizzes also contained trick questions that are hard even if you did the readings. My biggest critique is how she made the class very politically biased. It made me feel uncomfortable to share my views because of the videos she shared

Prof Snell is incredible; had her for three classes including Psychology on women now. I've learned so much in this class that's important. I had her in person too a year ago and she was nice and funny and really fast to email back if i had a problem. She expect you to work hard in college and pay attention and she reads work and gives good feedbac

You can tell she's passionate about her beliefs. There are weekly discussion boards and about 4 quizzes. A documentary paper on a film, you get a list to choose from. No late work, you can tell she reads discussion posts + responses. Overall this class made me really sit down and put thought into several topics that need more attention. enjoyed!

She truly loves what she teaches. You do have 1 documentary paper due towards the end of the semester. There were four exams, each worth 66 pts. NO LATE WORK whatsoever, be on time with your work! Her articles/slides were so fun to read; she made class enjoyable, and you got to view from different perspectives.
