Mrs Molinaro-great knowlegdable teacher that i would recommend. it is present that she has been through many psychology classes and ias much knowledge in the field. The only bad thing about taking her class is that she tends to teach the class as if we already are 100% familiar with the material

Mrs. Molinaro is one the BEST teachers at SPC, hands down. She taught the so well that I barely had to study for the exams. She does a lot of critical thinking exercises in class so that you really learn, which is why I didn't have to study so much. She's a fair grader and runs statistics on every single question on every single test. Take her!
