Very nice, very fair. Attractive too. I totally recommend her.
she is awesome, if you are taking psych make sure you get her!
Great teacher, makes psychology applicable to life, makes it about more than memorizing facts, actually seems interested in making sure the students understand the material
What a wonderful young teacher, she knows what college is like because she is freashly out of it, you learn so much in her class and she makes it interesting and fun, she is very easy going and willing to help!
Easy to follow along with
Great teacher, easy class, take her
Really good class, I've had her for two psych classes and i have understood everything. great teacher, i recomend her 100%
Very good teacher, you don't really need the book, 99% of test is on class notes so just go to class regularly and you'll do just fine.
if you don't do well on tests, she doesn't offer much else to earn points.
The BEST! I loved her Even i got an A. Very cute too!
The best teacher Ive ever had, she is awsome. Shes very helpful and her tests are all from notes. You could go to her class without a book. Very cool teacher
This was the most interesting, and fun class I have ever taken. Dr. Byerwalter went out of her way to explain things. The assignments were fun, the tests were a joy to study for. Every lecture brought new and useful material to mind. Thank her at the end!
one of the best
love her class
This class is easy, but challenging....there is outside work involved, but it is fun. There is really no reason to get the book, as 90% of the test comes straight from lecture notes....it helps that she is easy on the eyes too.
Great teacher! All her test questions come straight from her study guide. She is one of the best at grcc.
The best teacher i have had at GRCC. she is so nice, and helpful. she goes out of her way to explain what needs to be explained. it doesnt help that she is fairly hot too.
Easy class. Attendence important. Tests are sooo easy as long as you follow review sheet. Very helpful teacher.
awesome prof, she really makes the subject clear and she gives great study guides for her tests. Tests are pretty easy too.
I had her for a telecourse...she gave us big study guides for all of the tests. The easiest psych professor I have EVER had! I wish GVSU had psych teachers who could teach like her. She's great! Answers emails and questions in a timely manner. Friendly!
One of the best teachers I have ever had
Easy in the class, and on the eyes.
AWESOME! Very clear, very helpful, very organized, very nice. Approchable, fair, kind, interesting. REARRANGE YOUR SCHEDULE TO GET HER CLASS! Really - she is that good!
I wish she taught at gvsu...she's great. Her tests are over the material covered in class and she gives you a review sheet to go over. I learned so much in this class. Take her!!
Fantastic teacher! She really knows her stuff and is very helpful. Just take notes and follow the study guide-it'll be really easy! She loves to argue a point, (and never makes you feel silly) so if you have a question, ask!
great class, great teacher, very clear, covered material at a nice pace.
Really good teacher. She can help you in class and makes time out. Dont turn in late papers though she hates that. But all and all a cool teacher
This professor is everything a professor should be...intelligent, helpful, considerate and interested in the success of her students. The amount of tests and quizzes is above average but her clear teaching style has students prepared for them. Can't stress enough--she is an OUTSTANDING PROFESSOR!!
She is an excellent psych teacher, her tests aren't too hard, she makes the information easy to understand and applicable to life. She keeps her class from becoming boring by switching between discussion, lecture, and the occasional video clip. Her personality makes the class fun.
Wow! What a great class! Super easy project, either a quick paper or service learning. So simple! 2 posts a week plus 4 MC tests! No reason not to get an A in this one! She makes it fun and kept discussions interesting and relevant. Take this class! Nice break from lecture at the desk! Dr. B rocks!
Great class, very helpful and enthusiastic towards her material. Gives good study guides and fair tests. Highly recommended.
Dr.B was a excellent teacher. She was always helpful, and she is full of knowledge which is awesome.
This is the nicest teacher I have ever had. She does whatever is possible to not only be successful in the class but outside of it. The world needs more people like Dr. Byerwalter.
I Loved this class and Dr.B. I learned so much this semester. She's easy and very nice. I would love to take more classes with Dr. B. The study guide for this class also helped me a TON!
very helpful, fun, and makes tests less stressful
She's amazing. Simply amazing.

She is a great prof as I took her for two of my psych classes. She does not have the easiest tests, but gives you good test reviews which help a ton. Class is fun and interesting. She is very helpful, especially if you go to her office. I would recommend her, as she was my best psychology prof.
She is an amazing teacher, I would definately recommend her. I've already taken 2 of her classes. The only thing is that you get quite a bit of busy work.
She is the best prof. I had, and I am taking an online course with her next semester just to have her again...
Dr. B. is awesome. The class rocks and it was a honor and a pleasure to be a student under her. Her class is very hands on and you learn a lot.
This was my first online class and I am so gald I had her as my professor. Dr. B is a very kind and understanding woman. If you have to take this class, you should take it with her. Either online or she teaches in the class room too. Very good professor.
Dr. Byerwalter is so sweet and funny. I absolutely loved her class! If you study the powerpoints she gives you, the tests are cake. And, she gives you the essays that will be on the test! I loved her! Very easy class, but interesting!
She's really sweet. Probably one of the nicest professors at CC. You'll love her class. So long as you read the material and keep up with the powerpoints you'll pass with flying colors. The final project is also fairly easy.
Dr. B combines being incredibly intelligent with a passion for teaching. She is also nice to students.
She is very nice and easy. You do not even need to read the book 95% of the time. Study the powerpoints and you will get an A. She is a easy grader too. She shows movie clips which helps the time to fly. The final project is easy but time consuming.
Best teacher ever!
I had her my first semester at CC and then again recently for my last semester. She's still energetic, enthusiastic, fun, and brilliant. I don't know that there is a better professor at CC. Material comes right off the powerpt. slides and tests are easy. Motherly, and genuinely cares about her students, she wants to see you succeed. I love Dr. B!
Dr. B is the best! I absolutely love her psychology classes! I wish I could have her for every one of my classes. But alas, I am finished with all my psychology requirements. I took her online classes, which were excellent.
This online course is great! She will respond quickly to emails, and explain anything in detail if needed. She will even meet you on campus if needed. As long as you try hard and do your work she will love ya. This is a must have teacher of the pysch.
A FANTASTIC professor, very friendly and helpful, take her if you can!
Dr B was great. All of her assignments and projects were really usefull in the class. Loved her powerpoint slides made it sooo much easier to study for test. She's just a really friendly teacher and it's easy to pay attention
Nice lady. Class is every interesting and students feel involved.
I took her online class and it was very easy to work in my schedule. She gives your work about a week early and she's very easy to contact when you need to. I recommend her.
loved her. tests are off her power point and she gives you the essay questions beforehand. I felt like she really wanted us to learn and did a great job of it!
A FANTASTIC professor, very friendly and helpful, take her if you can! You can get by 99.9% of the class without owning the text book! Everything is off the powerpoints- save yourself the $100 for the book! Everyone should have Dr. B as a Professor! I would recommend her/this class to EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!
I did not like her as a teacher. Unfair, not easy to communicate with and doesn't return phone calls. DONT take her class.... better yet dont take any PY classes at CC!
Easy online class, textbook-based (good textbook), no PPT lectures, weekly quizzes (retake as often as you want), weekly discussion board posting, 6 online exams, 1 easy interesting paper, in-person final. Instructor responds promptly to questions posted in virtual office. Reading the text is a must (~30 pp/wk). Dr Byerwalter is friendly & helpful.
EASY CLASS!!! Took online and spent MAYBE 2 hrs per week!
This professor is very knowledgeable and extremely fair. You definitely want to take her class.
The tests did not seem to match the review she gave out.
I took the online class, and from reading the textbook and participating in discussion, getting an A was easy enough. She is very helpful and responds promptly to questions! Fun class!
Use the material that is given to you and you should get an A. Great class and great teacher
Awsome
Very good prof. Helpful and understanding. Why can't all profs be more like her?
She's really nice and was willing to help me study when I couldn't afford the textbook. She makes the class very interesting class. Likes people to participate in class discussions...do that read the material and you'll be fine! Good Luck!
Dr. B is a brilliant women. By utilizing all of the materials to their maximum potential, an A is not difficult. Put in the time, and read through the text so reinforce what she teaches in her lectures. she writes a difficult exam for the most part .. mostly conceptual, very little definition.
I loved Kate. She is an excellent teacher and she knows her stuff. She makes class interesting and it's easy to pay attention. Tests are made from everything talked about it class, study from coursepack you buy at the bookstore, it's very helpful! I highly recommend this teacher!!!
I took this through telecourse! One of the best distance education experiences - EVER! We were supposed to watch videos (online) none of them loaded so she waived the assignment. I read the text, utilized her PP presentation and studied with the text's website! You know what to expect with this course! Highly recommended!
Amazing teacher! I took the online course and actually learned alot! If you read the book and actually put some (not much) effort into the article reviews you will get an A like me.
I took the online class, she was very clear about what was due and when. She gives questions from the book and also extra assignments to help you dig deeper into the material, but I never felt overloaded or like I was doing busy work. I also loved that she gave feedback on assignments!
Took her online class. It was pretty easy but I learned alot. The RG questions were a littl time consuming and some assignments weren't clear but if you asked she would explain what she meant. 4 open book exams timed (60 mins. for 55 questions) final exam is easy if you study your prior exam questions. Final exam is cumulative 100 questions.
Loved her class! After being disappointed in my PY 201 teacher I was so thankful to have her for 232! I loved everything about the class, she has an awesome attitude! Study the powerpoint slides and you can get an A on the test. I would recommend her to anyone, and take her class again in a heart beat! Awesome Teacher!
Professor Byerwalter is a phenomenal teacher. She truly cares about her students and wants them to do well - if you have any problems, she'll go out of her way to help! Lots of handouts, very clear, and class was never boring. She's a fairly easy grader, but but things aren't hard if you study the materials.
She is the most organized online professor I have ever had. Very clear in her expectations and grades accordingly. Gives real comments to assignments and actually reads papers, rather than just writing "great, good job", etc. I hope to have her again!
such a good teacher. really loves what she teaches. tells you pretty much what is on each test. definitely recommend taking her class.
She is a great teacher! I really enjoyed her class. However she offers very few extra credit opportunities, so study for the tests.
I took her online class. She was very clear about everything that was expected and she wasn't overwhelming with homework. The best part about her is that she gives actual insightful feedback. Very few profs do that, so I really appreciated that she took the time to do so.
I took the online course and was very lucky to have such a clear teacher. She posts the homework so you can work ahead if you want to and she posts grades almost instantaneously, with feedback which many professors don't do. If you have the option to take her, I highly recommend it!
i recommend taking this class with her. she loves teaching and is easy to work with. this class was very rewarding for me because you get to make a difference in childrens lives. Although the Montessorri school is a wild and crazy place you can def take away a lot from the experience.
I have had Dr. B for PY 201, 233, and start next week with her for 232. All online. She is clear, organized, gives a resonable amount of work that isn't too demanding, yet you learn the material. She grades very quickly, comments on work, and is easy to communicate with. Highly recommended.
Dr. Byerwalter was easily the best teacher i have had! she was easy to understand. Taught the material without asking too much, and genuinely rewarded good work through comments and grades. I wish that she taught all of the psych classes because she is infinitely better than most of the other teachers
She is Awesome! Extremely helpful and interesting. Makes class fun and enjoyable, do you work and attend class and you will do fine
Had this professor for Summer 2011, for Child Psychology as an online class. She laid everything out very simply for assignments, discussions, and tests. She was encouraging, quickly responded to emails, and very knowledgeable. Friendly teacher! Would love to meet her in person in a future class.
Dr. B is very passionate, caring, helpful, and takes her profession seriously. I would recommend this class to anyone who plans on being a parent in their future, or anyone who plans on interacting with children. It's not a blow-off class, but a class full of a lot of 'need to know' information. You won't regret having her. :)
She is one of the best teachers I have had at CC' very helpful and the class is interesting! The only downside for me is the timed exams for each module.. I do poorly when timed so if that is an issue for you stay away from her online courses. Her powerpoint presentations are very helpful and she works at a slow pace so that is a bonus!
I really like her! She does powerpoint slides, gives you reviews for tests. the tests went along with what we learned in class. she's a good teacher and i definately recommend her
I had her Summer 2010 for an online child psychology - an accelerated class that I was sad to see end. She was engaging to students, and as long as you do what you're supposed to do (a theme I think works well anywhere) you'll get a good grade. She is very passionate about the subject, and can tell if a student is too.
Took this course online, the only thing that I didn't like was that the exams you have every couple of weeks are timed. She is a great teacher and very helpful, I recommend the class if you don't mind timed tests.
Fantastic Instructor! I am a nursing transfer student and this is a required course for me. She spells out everything you need to know, tests are all multiple choice. She is one of the most caring and passionate instructors I have ever had, she really gets to know her students even on a personal level. I would HIGHLY recommend this instructor
Fantastic professor. She really makes an attempt to get to know her students and will work with you. The material is well-presented and she listens to feedback she gets from students. She sets up powerpoints from the chapters for you to print. Course work consists of six short exams, two projects, and some reading. I loved this class.
Dr Byerwalter has been my favorite professor at GRCC thus far. She is clear and gives test prep materials relevant to the exams. She immediately contacts students if there is a change in the syllabus. Through the way she ran her lecture, I became friends with many of my classmates through frequent discussions and occasional projects. Great Prof!
Dr. Byerwalter is an outstanding professor. She graded extremely quickly, answered questions immediately, and her teaching style was very interesting. I wish I could take every course with her!
She's an amazing teacher! Very understanding and wants every student to succeed! She is passionate about what she teaches and is very knowledgeable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Very helpful, lot of work but if you do it, very easy!
Dr. Byerwalter is an amazing prof. I would recommend her to anyone. She really cares about her students; she is willing to bend over backwards just to see her students succeed. She is a great connection if you are a psych major. We still keep in touch even though I do not have her anymore. She is an awesome professor and a wonderful woman!
Very easy yet interesting class. I never touched the book. just took notes on her lectures. Every 3 weeks you have; 3 videos & quizzes, 1 paper, and a unit test. All this can be done in 1 day if you want to. The paper is 3 pages double spaced. She is very knowledgable and doesn't just read powerpoints to you which is nice. I highly recommend.
I love Dr. Byerwalter! I took her online and I would seriously recommend her to anyone! She is very clear about what she wants from students and the chaptersmodules were pretty easy. She is also very knowledgeable about psychology and you can tell she's very passionate about it. I wish I could take all of her classes.
Exam is very hard. NO practice questions or notes to prepare for the test.
I like that Dr. Byerwalter posts her lectures on the online course. It makes learning the material easier. (And worth it.) Discussion boards for online classes are pretty simple, just one post a week (as long as it fits her criteria) will get you an A. (Make sure it's a good post though.)
She is an amazing teacher. I learned a lot, because she made sure to post all of her lectures online. If you study for the class you should get an A, it definitely is not an easy A. She grades fairly. I would recommend taking her class if you want to learn a lot about psychology.
Dr. Byerwalter is hands down the best prof I've ever had. She make class fun. She provides you with a course pack with all the notes. She posts study guides for exams, and what are key pages to read. The book wasn't used so don't get it. Good at giving feedback & emailing back. Super helpful & over a good personality and person. Loved her class !!
Wrote 2 papers that were only 5 pages long and got A's on both of them. Easy grader, good class. No final exam if you choose to do 10 hours of community service and a 2 page paper on your service. Otherwise, the final exam is 100 points. Semi-difficult exams but there are only 5 of them. If you read, you'll do ok. Good class, would take it again.
Good class, exams are timed and you don't have time to look up each answer in the book. Do the study guides and the tests become easy. 5 exams-worth most of your grade. Have to go into the school to the last on. Lots of quizzes and a discussion board each week. Quizzes are super easy.
Very personable, nice and understanding! Made a course packet with all the notes so its very easy to follow lecture. All the exam study guides are available at the beginning of the semester and she does a great job including everything that will be on the exam in the study guides. Easily one of my favorite professors! Offers a few EC opportunites
Great professor! I enjoyed taking developmental psych with her. The class was easy- I spent a hour going over the material before the test and easily got A's on every one. She was very interesting. Highly recommend!
Dr. Byerwalter is very friendly and wants to help! Her online class was well structured and easy to follow. I like that she posts her lectures rather than just a power point and the quizzes and exams are easy as long as you do the reading and watch the lectures. Only one paper and didn't have to do any discussion board posts.
I had her for an online class and her expectations are very clear. But, don't be alarmed when you have to take the exams with a lockdown browser. So, studying and reading the textbook is very important. She always gave very nice feedback on papers and was very caring. I just wish I would've taken an in seat class versus online.
Dr. B is def one of the best psych profs at GRCC. I have had her for two psych courses now and loved both. She cares about the success of her students, gives great feedback, several extra credit opportunities, and is sensitive to the needs of others. Would recommend her to anyone.
Great online class. Lectures are not crazy long but very informational. Quizzes and tests cover the important stuff without getting lost in the weeds. Easy going professor, easy to learn in this class.
She is one of the best online teachers had. It was my first online class so I was pretty nervous. But she made the online class a breeze! Her lectures are easy to sit through, and she gives good information. She is very helpful if you have questions, and is super nice! She knows her stuff, and is just an amazing prof all around. Take her!
She was an amazing professor, she responded quickly to emails and is very caring.
Dr. Byerwalter is one of the best prof's I've ever had. I've taken all the classes she teaches. You show up, do the work, you'll pass no problem. She has clear guidelines and timelines for the course. Tests are multiple choice usually 50 ?s and NO CUMMULATIVE FINAL!
This professor is incredibly kind and caring. The amount of homework did feel a little heavy,but if you have any trouble keeping up,as long and you communicate w/ her she is very forgiving. I took this course online and wish I would've been able to meet her in person.
I had her for my online class. We did discussion boards and had tests for every 2-3 chapters. Everything is straight from the book so there are no surprises on the tests. Quizzes are optional but not mandatory. Overall great professor, would love to have her again :)
Dr. Christian is amazing. She genuinely cares for her students. Easy to communicate with and understanding. Get ready to read and implement a questions list for each chapter that you will share with a classmate. One paper is due for the semester and there are 5 exams total, but no cumulative final.
I took Dr. Christian's PSY232 class entirely online, meaning the opportunities for feedback were less than those of an in-person class. However, when I completed a major project (i.e., Discussion posts, Erickson paper), I received honest, individualized feedback, which I valued. She also offers additional content that is valuable to have as well.
don't take her class at the same time you take py233 or any other psych class. i'm typically a straight As/high Bs student, and i withdrew from her class at week 3 with a 64%. she was an absolute angel, and tried to help make my learning experience better, but honestly? alone or with another psych class, this isn't an easy A course.
This was an online course. My first online course ever. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. There is a lot of reading and weekly test but overall was a great class. Along with a great instructor.
Professor Christian does a great job with this class. Her videos are nice and short but include great material. Quizzes are optional but are helpful because the questions appear on tests. Tests are straightforward and just like her videos. Great professor!
Dr. C is so humble and sweet and funny. She is an amazing professor. She is so empathetic and you will learn so much in her class. My favorite prof in my whole college experience!
She was the sweetest lady. Gives you study guides for each chapter and if you put in the work and do them you will ace every test. Very good feedback and each week clear instructions were given. She was amazing and I would definitely recommend this professor! By far the best I have had so far!
Dr. Christian is so genuine when teaching. You can definitely tell she puts in a lot of effort into her lectures. The course is pretty easy thanks to her outlines and explanations. Just be sure to do the readings and work!
Teaching style follows along with the book very well. Explains things very well and is open to meeting outside of class
Dr. Christian is an amazing professor who truly cares about the success of her students. She is always willing to work with you, and material is properly taught. She makes lectures enjoyable and gives a lot of examples. As long as you try, you will succeed in her class! Definitely take her!
Kate is good professor. You have weekly assignments that are used as exam materials that she also covers in class. She uses an outline to help you understand the material and gives good feedback. She has several extra credit opportunities and is a fair grader.
Such a nice Professor! Wish I took this class in person so I could meet her! The class was great if you could keep up with the work, deadlines were super clear, just make sure to read the textbook and keep up. The essay was super easy just be detailed and put your best foot forward.
I love Dr. Christian. Such an amazing proffesor and really did open doors for my mind for the psych field. Lectures are not boring at all, and she definitley knows how to teach. I hated psychology in high school but taking it with Dr. Christian, it was truly so much fun.
If you need to take a psychology class, take it with Dr. Christian! She follows the same format every week of reading, discussion board, and quiz. There is no final exam, and she provides lectures and study guides for every quiz. There is one project, but she gives clear instructions and lots of time. Her feedback is very thoughtful and detailed.
Dr. Christian has been my favorite professor so far! She is so kind, I took this class online but I reached out via email multiple times and she was quick to respond. She gives you the study guides and you just answer the questions so there are no surprises on the exams. I would take every class that I can with her.
Fantastic professor. She's highly approachable and easy to reach. She gives clear expectations and offers extra credit. She is hands down one of the best professors at GRCC.
She was literally a wonderful teacher omg I only have good things to say, the class was so chill and easy, and she makes you want to go to class, let us use notes on final exam!! Very nice and kind
She is literally the sweetest professor i have ever had. She cares so much about the success of her students. Her lectures were super engaging and interesting. Exams were easy, and if she felt like an exam she gave was harder than she intended to be, she would automatically give everyone between 1-2% on their exam grade. She is great!
This is the easiest psychology class i have ever taken. Professor Kate, is such a caring, kind and probably my favorite professor i have ever had! Quizzes are really easy as long as you do the study guide! If you email her about a question or literally anything she responds very quickly!
Dr. Christian is a wonderful professor who makes the class engaging and enjoyable. Her lectures are informative, and she is always willing to help students. Unstuck AI is a great study tool that complements the course well.
Every two chapters there's a test. The professor provides study guides and as long as you take time to do them, a good test grade is pretty much guaranteed. Outside of the study guides, there is only one assignment we did at home and that was as essay, which you get a couple options for. Overall, this professor's class is interesting and engaging.
This has been one of the best professors I have ever taken a class with. Clear guidelines, quick grading, and easy to understand content (if you watch the lectures). I don't have a single issue with Professor Christian, and only have good things to say about her. I would gladly take a third course with her.
Very kind, Great personality! Her lectures are easy to follow and understand and can be relatable. She even shows hospitality to students by bringing in snacks at beginning of class. Very comfortable atmosphere for students, even if you're shy and don't like to talk. All and all great professor, as well as person, and would definitely recommend!
Lots of Lectures and Quizzes throughout the semester, which can range from 6 Videos, each with a Quiz one week, and 2 Videos with Quizzes each the next. During good periods to get work done, she does check how often you are active on Blackboard for attendance. Videos, btw, can range from 15 Minutes to 30+ ... be prepared for LOTS of notes.
Dr Christian is AMAZING. She's by far my favorite professor I've ever had. Her passion, care, and excellence is very evident in her class. She knows her stuff and is always willing to help where she can, even if it's real life issues. The work was very easy because she is amazing at her job. Put in the work, you'll do great with her!
Nothing bad to report about Dr. Christian! Super sweet, loves psychology, and really cares about our success. Lectures aren't boring, she makes an effort to break up the information.
Great professor, genuinely cares, work is manageable, good feedback
I LOVED Dr. Christian. Her lectures were interesting, and she cared for and took great interest in her students. Her study guides align with the tests well, and there was no midterm or final. Participation in the discussion was encouraged, but never required.
I had an amazing experience with Ms. Christian. Her lectures include a video and she likes to add herself in the corner that way you can see her. She is constantly cracking jokes and making us giggle, but in all seriousness she makes it fun to learn about Child Development. 10/10
enjoy her lectures
I wouldn't get though any psych class without her. She's amazing. Her lectures are amazing. The work is easy. Just listen. Pay attention.
Dr. Christian is the best professor I've had in college. I took her PY 232 class. Her class inspired me so much that I changed my major to psychology because of her. She was always approachable and made time for everyone. She has made a lasting impact on me, both as a student and as a person. I feel incredibly lucky to have been in her class.
Dr.christian's online class was easy to understand and follow. She had clear expectations. Her lectures and study guides were amazing had all the information needed for the exams. Highly recommend!!
Such a sweet, kind, and overall great professor. I really enjoyed this class and learned so much at the same time. If you complete the assignments, watch the video lectures, and read the textbook you'll ace the class.
Absolutely loved having her as a professor! Class is simple as long as you read. Took her for two different PY and loved them both
Amazing professor, truly so nice, helpful, and overall the best professor at GRCC. I took an online course so it was all lectures and you just take notes then answer some quiz questions and do a test. She was super nice and understanding when I had to email her a couple of times. If you struggle with psych and need this credit, I insist you take it
Honestly my favorite professor. Her lectures are not hard, and she's absolutely hilarious and nutty in the best way. She loves to engage with her students, and assignments are straight forward.
I really enjoyed her course. The lectures were fun to listen to, she cut them up so it wasn't hours long for the topic of the week. It was easy to take it steps at a time to not feel overwhelmed with the material each week. I learned a lot from her!
I took Dr. Christian's child psychology class online, I must say I wish I took it in person because she is very engaging even with her online lectures and despite my grade being lower because I am slow and found out later that she has study guides up and there to use which helped me keep me at a good enough grade to be happy with.
Easily the worst professor I've taken at GRCC. I've taken multiple psychology classes from various professors and Kate is by far the worst. She assigns 4-6 quizzes a week, that are all based on her- not the actual material you are meant to learn in the class. She spends the vast majority of her lectures talking about herself and her family. Awful.
