A True Jedi.
I learned so much from Faison. He's awesome!!!
Class is fairly easy. He's an awesome teacher, relates dull boring psych babble into everyday terms and expressions.
It is a pretty easy class as long as you write the papers. the tests arent bad at all and the subjects for the paper are anything you want as long as they deal with psychology.
FANTASTIC!! Keeps you awake! You will learn from this very hot man. FAIR TEACHER! Only bias he has is against laziness. PHCC IS VERY LUCKY TO HAVE HIM!
WOW! Energetic man will keep you awake. You will want to learn. TAKE NOTES! He knows his stuff. He gives 4 take home tests, 4 in class tests and 4 Gordon Rule papers. I loved this class. Do not take him for granted - DO THE WORK!
It's pretty hard not to pass if you do the papers. Cool guy.

Awesome teacher, my favorite so far. Really fun and great personality. Gives extra credit for attendance like crazy. Dont worry about the tests, they balance out and you get a huge curve.
Coolest teacher I have ever had, He relates humor into his psychology therefore making the class quite interesting. I would definitely recommend taking a class with him.
Faison is one of the coolest teachers I have ever had. I had him for night class and it goes by so fast with his hilarious stories. I took him my senior year in HS for dual enrollment and I enjoyed going to his class. Go to classes to get extra credit. Papers are very easy.
AMAZING!
I have diliberatly taken every class he teaches because he is that cool. He makes you feel good about yourself and doesnt put down anybody. He always walks into class with a smile. Quote"Peace,Love,Sex,and Dope if youve lost all that youve lost all hope". No**** he is that cool.
kept me awake.
Faison took over class for another teacher and he is one of the best Ive had at PHCC. Wonderful man, funny, knows what he is talking about and makes everything interesting! Would Recommend to anyone!
He is an amazing teacher! Fun and easy class. I would take any class he teaches. He's funny and a major Freudian thinker.
He is just all around awesome! Has the ability to keep everyone on their toes, interested, and laughing all at once. best teaching methods i have ever seen. i miss him :_( Brittany N Firns
He's so damn great i just had to repost! :) the best professor i've ever had. I would recommend him to EVERYONE. "ABAOYS" "ABDSPDQ!" <3 i would transfer back to that school just to take his class again.
If you want to learn something, take FAISON! He's great. Very professional and a very exciting class. I guarantee he will grow on you the very first day! :)
He's so cool. He's funny and interesting. His lectures are really good and he gives you tips to help you study.

He is the the funniest guy I have ever met! The whole time your in his class you will pee you pants hahah!! Hes very helpful and has a great teaching technique!! I'm currently still in his class but ... o dear you better not ask him something stupid or you
Faison is the best teacher I've ever had at PHCC. He is interesting, funny, and you basically get an "A" for showing up. Basically, fun class, you learn something useful, and you get a good grade. How could you go wrong?
Awesome teacher! Very entertaining... uses real-life examples that relate to the material he's trying to teach! I absolutely loved his personality and his teaching strategies were great!
Faison is the man. hs class wasnt easy, but the way he taught made it easy as hell. Way to go ****!
Best Teacher Ive ever had in college, including my stay at USF. Faison is the man! Teaches the real. ABAOYS, ABDSPDQ, TB4UA, A/E, E/A, 2BO/BO/O. the MAN!!!!!!
No Comments
hes really nice and helpful. he wants u to be a good student and he's real easy when it comes to the papers. as long and u come to class and do the work ull get an A. hes also hilarious.
FAISON IS THE SHIIIT !! He is awesome, he cares whether or not you do good or not, he's hilarious, and very understanding!! He is VERY BIG ON ATTENDANCE, so if you like to not show up for school, don't sign up for Faison : ) I've taken him 5 times and received As in al the classes : ) Definetly take him
He is hard.. but a really good teacher.. if you go to class you will pass!
Faison is friggin awesome, I've taken two classes with him and he's hilarious to listen to. I also like that he really wants us to learn, and he will take time to answer our questions. His classes are alot of fun!
I love this guy. I never had him but I love him. He is so polite and friendly.
Faison was awesome. Now I'm ABDSPDQ and I keep my A over my E all the time. Take the class, then you'll understand. See you again soon Faison! Shawn!

ABDSPDQ...awesome prof...definately hot looking, I would recommend him to everyone. His classes are interesting, and he is funny, you'll never be bored!!!Always be doing something pretty damn quick!
Faison is AWESOME! The best teacher I have ever had
He is so frickin' AWESOME! He makes class FUN. He tells great stories and he grades on the bell curve which can be a big help to your test grades! ABDSPDQ...if you take his class you'll learn what that means...highly recommend his class...you will not be disappointed!
Extremely hot. Very helpful and it is a great class to take.
one of the most motivated and outgoing teachers ever.
The mental exercises make no sense. The wording is incomprehensible and his huge curve identifies that fact.
The absolute best prof you will ever have at PHCC!! Really cares about his students, and you will learn a lot. Bell Curve really helps grade. Show up for every class and you will be rewarded at the end of the semester
He is the coolest, nicest, and funniest teacher you will ever have the pleasure of learning from. he is very understanding and he makes you actually WANT to go to his class. i took him 3 times and each time was just as great as the first. he is the BEST!!!
he makes class interesting.
Interesting teacher, very hard tests, but he gives you a huge curve
He is the best. I would highly recomend him, and that's not just because I have a huge crush on him. :-)
This is the best professor you will ever have....he teaches great, his stories are great and he is just all around a great guy. ABDSPDQ, and remember to keep your A over your E and you will pass this class with flying colors....Oh and remember, you always need to be there...if you dont like going to class all the time then dont join faison's class.
Mr. Faison is PHCC's best professor. This will be my third class with him and not the last! His teaching style is amazing and even though it's been quite a while since I've had him as a professor, I'll always remember ABDSPDQ! A over E! He makes you want to come to class and enjoy it while you are there. Tough tests, but great grading curve!
BALLER.
hes awesome!!! highly recommend.
WONDERFUL TEACHER.Does great class presentations that are very helpful in learning the material.very focused dont roam off topic.Makes if easy to get a good grade and actually learn something.HIGHLY RECOMMEND taking him.
He is the best teacher a student could ever ask for. I have taken four classes with him and earned an A every time. Just study for test and you will be just fine.
Faison is the man best teacher phcc has wish all teachers would be like him
Superb! Teaches with passion and will make a profound difference in your life.
he is cool
Awesome teacher!
AWESOME!!!
EXCELLENT PROFESSOR! ALWAYS WILLING TO HELP. GREAT ATTITUDE,WONDERFUL PERSONALITY. HE DOES EXPECT YOUR BEST, HOWEVER HE IS VERY FAIR.
Professor Faison is very knowledgeable in his field. At first I thought he was a bit extreme with his strict attendance policy, but I later realized he is like that because he has his student's best interest at heart. He has a refreshing sense of humor. Awesome teacher!
Interesting man lol. Knows a lot about his subject and gets into it as well, which is one thing I liked about him. Classes are based solely on powerpoints, which he provides everyeone with. Grade made up of take home tests, tests, and research paper. You do have to show up for class thought otherwise he will deduct. Awesome teacher.
Fantastic professor. You'll want to go to class just to hear what "Faison rules" he will impart on the class that day. Don't go to PHCC without taking one of his classes- you will be missing out.
He is funny,and the class is fun. Tests are so hard he puts them on a curve so most pass. have to read the book! In class notes not worth much.
Fantastic professor. Makes every class fun. Definitely fair - if you show up and do all the work you can earn an A. One of the nicest professors on the campus. Everyone should take a class with him.
Very fair but tests are tough, good thing for the curve!
1)Go to class. 2)Be on time. 3)Turn in assignments.4)Participate in discussions. You will pass. My favorite professor! He makes learning fun. Leads by example.He actually knows his students by name. Its been a great semester.BUT YOU MUST GO TO CLASS. His #1 rule.
I had great courses with Faison. He always had open-book tests (not sure anymore) and was excited about teaching. He seemed open to students asking questions and giving their opinion. I liked the fact that he never just slapped notes in front of our faces and made us write until the end of class. He interacted and gave us a great experience!
Faison is undoubtedly one of the best professors I've had. He talks fast, so be sure to keep up and be alert. You can learn a lot of psychology from this guy, but only if you do your part by listening to him. Hilarious guy.
Faison is easy to talk to and easy to understand. Just make sure you show up, pay attention, take notes, and ready you book. He grades on a curve so tests are hard but fair. One of the best professors at PHCC!
I took Faison for 4 classes because he's fantastic.Great personality.Makes class interesting.There are take-home tests and class tests (hard).He's fair esp. if you a)show up b)don't answer back c)do your work d)participate. Do all that and you will pass.
I have taken two classes with him and probably more coming up. He's a great teacher. Just come to class, be on time, and do your work and you will be fine. He makes it fun and is helpful if you need it.
His tests are tough but he grades on a generous curve. Read the book, all the test material is form the book! He is very adamant that you come to class and takes it personally if you miss, be sure to show up!
Absolutely the best teacher, have taken him for three classes so far. Tests are a little hard, but he has awesome curves. Very serious about attendance, don't miss his class! Very hilarious, makes learning fun plus hes not hard to look at ;-)
One of the best teacher I have ever had. If you want to learn this will be the teacher for you.
This professor is extremely knowledgeable. He keeps the class room fun while professional and respectful. by far one of the best teachers i have had.
Awesome teacher!!! Can't wait to take more of his classes.
I wouldn't take him again. I think he means well, but isn't very clear on anything that is being taught. He uses words that 99% of people in class don't understand. Not relatable
I have five favorite teachers and out of them he is #1. He teaches you thing that will stick with you for a life time. He was blessed with the ability to teach in such a unique way. He is so full of knowledge, if you don't take his class you will lose out. DON'T BE A SLACKER...
Absolutely the best professor I have ever had at PHCC. He was funny, kept things interesting, and his class was pretty easy to pass as long as you are not a slacker.
One of the best professors I've had by far. Probably one of the top (if not the top) at PHCC.
Faison is the best. Always a smile on his face. You will be required to write two 1000 word papers in APA format. There are 4 take home tests(open book) and 4 in-class exams. The key to getting good grades on the exams, is to read the chapters (4 of them per term) the week of the exam. You will have to participate in class circle meetings.
Professor Faison is amazing. His ability to make you enjoy what you are learning is spectacular. Some of the things you learn from him are life-long skills. I would recommend Faison to anyone! ABDSPDQ, AHASP, Don't Be A Slacker!
Faison was an okay teacher. He's very smart and keeps you interested in whats being taught. However, his test are impossible to pass. The study guide has nothing to do with the test and the answers to the study guide are scattered all throughout the book. There's two major research papers due throughout the semester that he grades fairly. Good luck
Faison Rocks!!! hats all I can say. He's funny, makes AND takes jokes, enjoys input, wants you to participate and is very informative. atAKE NOTES and DO YOUR journal assignments and you'll go far. P.S. he grades on a curve... AWESOOOMMMEEE
sit in front of classroom and ask COMPREHENSIVE questions pertaining to lesson.
SIT IN HE FRONT ROW!!! Make small talk with him, and ask comprehensive questions
Great teacher! Show up to class, pay attention, read your book, don't whine, you'll pass. Anyone who whines about the tests being hard didn't study, plus he grades on a curve.
great teacher, makes class interesting, he is a nice and funny guy, he gives take home tests and you have to write two papers, if you show up, talk to him, and do the hw (which is next to nothing) you will pass. Tests can be kind of hard but he gives a gnarly curve so its ok.
Awesome teacher!! Loved him. He's hilarious and is good at making people feel comfortable in his class. Can't wait to take more of his classes!
He is a fair teacher and grades well as long as you show up, don't whine, don't be a SLACKER, do what he asks, and turn all work in on time.of course small talk as well and laugh at jokes even if they are not funny. Over all a good teacher.
He is a really Great professor... his class is very interesting,, all you have to do is show up to his class if not your a SLACKER!!!! but over all of he is an FANTASTIC professor!!!
By far the best teacher at PHCC. He is very helpful with any question you have. Just go to every class!
If you come to class, do the assignments, study, and participate you will do well. If YOU choose not to, it's your own fault you don't do well.
He is by far my favorite professor! Curved all the tests and taught very well. He is the type of teacher you have fun with, and also learn from at the same time. I highly recommend taking one of his classes.
This teacher is great! Curved all the tests. Makes you laugh in every class. If you do the homework, check it, do your best on the tests, write the essays and attend the class, you'll get an easy A.
Best teacher ever! If you take Psy make sure you has Fasion, you are pretty much guareteed an A!
Faison is awesome! i highly recommend him to everyone. just dont be a SLACKER and itll be an easy semester
Great teacher. As long as you show up and want learn Mr.Faison will make this a great learning experience for you as he did me.
I loved having this class :) He's hilarious and as long as you're not a slacker, you'll do well. I wish every professor at PHCC was like him!
He is an amazing Professor, I love him! He is awesome and funny but you will actually learn from his class. Just make sure you don't miss a class and do what he suggested for you to do like going to a meeting and study to pass the class and get an "A". I just finished my class with him this April 2013.I highly recommended to take any of his class.
Awesome teacher, interesting, learn a lot, easy a.
One of the BEST PROFESSORS I have had at PHCC. You will remember the lecture months after the class. Don't be a slacker or miss class, excuses don't work. Do the work in his class is worth the effort. Not all teachers have the ability to teach. This professor was blessed with a gift to teach. You will having fun while learning.
Professor Faison is the best teacher by far. I love this class and look forward to having him for 2 more classes. Do the work, take notes, and show up for class, don't be rude or a slacker and you will be fine. Professor has a great sense of humor and has a vast array of knowledge. Absolutely love him.
Amazing teacher with a positive, fun attitude. One the funniest people I've ever met!
Awesome Professor! Show up for class, do all the required work and participate in class. This is my third Psych class, but first with Prof. Faison. I wish I had taken him for the first two. I would recommend this professor to anyone interested in this field of study. You will learn from him.
Seriously one of the funniest people ever met. Makes class more interesting and forces you to open up and get active in class. Loved psychology before and love it even more thanks to him!
Phenominal Prof
Mr. Faison was the funniest teacher I have taken so far. He always managed to make class fun, eventful, and joyful. He was a very easy professor and he made the material easy to understand. As a duel enrollment student still attending high school, it was easy to maintain a good grade in the class.
Professor Faison is an amazing and gifted instructor!!! I recommend !!!
I took Mr. Faison for fall semester . He was recommended by an advisor after I told her I had taken psychology 2 times before that and did not pass. Let me just say how AMAZING faison is !!!!! I have never had a more perfect professor than him ! He's the funniest guy you will ever meet ! He keeps the class so interesting . Best teacher in the world
Faison cares about your education and what you will learn. He challenges you and if you challenge back he will give you respect but makes you think so you will learn.
Great and funny. A over E. ABDSPDQ ALL DAY EVERYDAY
Definitely don't take this class unless you only want to learn 2 terms. A over E and ABDSPDQ. Nice guy but not the best teacher.
Outstanding teacher!! :) Hilarious but serious, easy class as long as you are attendant and present. Previous to this class i had no interest is psychology, since attending Fasion's class i am actually interested in the subject! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
ABDSPDQ! Learn it love it or get divorced. Loved the class, best teacher in the WORLD, but do not try to "Punk" him (talk while he is talking). I would highly recommend to anyone. Oh and by the way the grading curve will save your life.
Great teacher!! Better sign up for his classes quick because all the students love him and an easy A.
Amazing, like always. :) But we are divorced now. :(
Amazing teacher absolutely loved his class. i would take again. i noticed a lot of people say its easy but to me it was kind of hard. but still fun
If you want to pursue a SERIOUS class for PSYCHOLOGY then please, do NOT take Faison. He is strictly for students who want to get an easy , however, not learn anything. He will lecture the same material but give tests straight from the Pearson book. Its very lazy teaching . You might as well go to a high school Psych class than to take this one. :)
Mr. Faison was fun, fair, happy, funny and helpful. I took him over the summer but the longest class still let out 40 minutes early. He respected us and tried to teach us real world skills as well as course material. I could go on and on about how great the class was but I'm running out of characters. Only regret is that I didn't take more classes.
This professor is amazing at what he does, he is enthusiastic and keeps the class lively! The class has a take home exam and in class exam plenty of extra credit opportunity available, you have to be very lazy and show no effort to get a bad grade in this class.
Faison is hilarious but you really need to go to class. The tests are pretty much the power points and even though you can access the PP's online he goes more into depth in class, + he's hilarious so you won't ever want to miss class anyways. Class usually gets let out after 30 minutes also. A/E. ABDSPDQ.
Prof. Faison is awesome. That is all!!!!
Faison is a phenomenal professor. Be ready to learn the way education should be taught. Education should not be a miserable task. It should be strict teaching while making the class enjoyable. He is always there to help you if needed after class. Never have I met a professor that has a passion for teaching and for his students to succeed as Faison.
He's such a phenomenal professor and gets so in depth with his lessons. This was my second class with him and I adore him just as much as his Intro to Psych class. He can get so personal with his lectures but everything that comes out of his mouth is hilarious. He makes his students enjoy learning again, I would take every class he teaches! GREAT!!
ABDSPDQ! (if you take his class you will soon know what that means) I cannot say enough great things about this professor! He always made a school day 10x better kowing that I was going to his class! He has such a passion for what he does and he makes his class SO enjoyable!! 10 out of 10 and I would take another class from him anytime!!
This professor is the best professor I have ever had in my life and is the very definition of what a professor should be. As long as you do your work and come to class as expected from a college student you should not have any trouble in his classes. His lectures are very informative while at the same time adding humor. Faison is the best!
He's hilarious, fair, and definitely believes that all his students can succeed if they work hard and keep their A/E. Everything on his tests are based off of concepts discussed in class though so don't skip!! ABDSPDQ!
A/E! Best Professor I've taken! Actually learned a few things too lol.
Professor Faison cares about real world issues . He understands his students because he has been there. He is down to earth and is a good man overall. His class is interesting and he provides curves for his exams. Got an A++
Goes through lectures fast, so you have to keep up. Highly recommend reading chapters corresponding to the class afterward. ALWAYS attend class. Sometimes he will just throw out 20 extra points on the midterm/final just for being there. He's a fun teacher, though he doesn't always get all the information across, so definitely read.
AMAZING TEACHER! Such an awesome person. He truly cares for his students and as long as you do your work and participate in class you'll get a high grade. Curves tests all the time! He was my first professor at this campus and I plan on taking every class he teaches.
Professor Faison was hilarious, he made lectures fun. But... reasoning for the lower score was because he skips a lot of information during his lectures, and lets his class out 20-30 minutes early. Now this is great, but you will need to read each chapter on your own or you wont pass. But, he does givs like, 30 point curves on his tests.... lol
He's a very nice/funny teacher. Makes psychology fun. Don't really use book in class but need the passcode that comes with for Pearson and he uses power points. 2 take home test given months in advance 100 questions easy. 2 paper 1st easy 2nd you'll use the Gordon rule apa format. Miss 3 or more days won't get a A.
He was a good teacher. Read the material on your own and we got let out of class almost always 45 minutes early. Graded on a curve and wasn't tough on grading. Don't miss a lot of classes or you will be lost.
Although I must admit that I took his class during the summer and was prone to slack off because of it, Mr. Faison made sure to help me get back on track and the C+ is merely my doing but he is an overall Awesome Professor and I would definitely take his class again!
It's required to come to class to be able to pass, but you might as well not show up because not a single thing he talks about in class is on the tests. Everything is out of the textbook. As long as you read the textbook you'll pass with an A. He has to curve so much because students think they can rely on the notes from class for his tests.
Choose this professor and anything he teaches! He is honestly amazing and I plan on taking his courses until I graduate. We need more professors like him. Thank you for being so generous and caring. You made college worth attending. A/E
Faison is amazing. He really cares about the subjects he teaches. You need to participate, but not too much. Try to not skip class too often because he gives out free extra credit randomly and on days where only a few people show up. The textbook can be helpful, but you don't need it, just use his power points. He's also very easy on grading.
Easy class. If you want to learn something dont take this class. Hes just an Esay A
There is absolutely no homework and only 4 tests (Including Midterm and Final). The two tests are take home. He is very funny and caring. There was only one paper that wasn't mandatory and it was only 5% of grade.
Faison is hilarious and makes class actually enjoyable. His class is an easy A as long as you show up and pay attention. All tests are graded on a steep curve and he offers tons of extra credit. This is a class you have to show up for as he takes attendance fairly seriously. He wants everyone to pass and provides you with the necessary tools.
Great!
Awesome professor. I thoroughly enjoyed going to his class. You had two 100 questions take home exams, one big research paper, and two in class exams of 100 questions.
He is a really chill professor. Do the work and you will get the grade you deserve. Dont use your phone in class hes a stickler about it, he just wants you to be focused on the lecture. He will teach you some helpful things that you can use in your everyday life.
His class is extremely interesting and there are plenty of opportunities for extra credit throughout the semester. The class is not hard as long as you show up; attendance is counted for a grade.
Probably my favorite professor at this school. He really cares about his students and wants you to pass. If you have a chance to take him do it. He is worth it
Very easy class.
Hes super nice and just a great teacher overall! You wont regret taking his class!
Mr Fasion is the best. He is so funny !! His "Hello Clarice" refrence cracks me up every time. He keeps class interesting by telling you cool stories. The Essay was rough for me but the class assignments were simple to follow along with . I so would take another class of his.
Awesome guy! Cares about the students not just about the school board.
Does a good job going over material. Very animated/funny and tries to keep the class in a good mood. Your work ethic will explain your grade in the class. Overall a great teacher and person.
Professor Faison was an amazing professor! He was very funny and animated, which made his lectures enjoyable. He was also very nice and open to questions and the course load was light and never overwhelming. Would definitely take one of his classes again.
Faison is a great professor. He is very understanding and wants everyone to succeed, and will always listen to feedback given by his students. Attendance is not mandatory every lecture but he does take attendance, and his lectures are always fun anyways, so it's beneficial to go. A good amount of assignments but they are not difficult at all.
He was very funny but lectures weren't as informative as they could have been. He also got VERY ahead. Each week assignments would come out (ex: ch. 13 Q & D & assignment) but he would be one or two chapters ahead so you weren't able to use what you learned that week on assignment you had to remember from weeks prior. Book is helpful though.
He is funny, but I didn't learn a single thing in his class. If you're only taking this class because its required, then I would recommend him, but if you actually care to study psych, this isnt the class. I feel like I have no base to build on with future psych classes. If you are taking this as a pre req, it's an easy a.
DON'T DO IT- very disorganized online class, confusing, grammatical errors. Assignments unclear, ask for clarification and you get told you don't know how to read. Many random rants on corporate America & how we won't survive if we don't put in the work. Incredibly disrespectful, disorganized, very hard to understand. Will not answer questions
Kelvin Faison was a great professor to have for my first semester of college. I expressed difficulty with his class in the first week, and he immediately scheduled a Zoom meeting and helped me figure out how to do the homework. His feedback was very helpful, and he was kind and considerate.
I have taken Faison for 4 semesters; he is funny but also knows what he is talking about. The classes he teaches are extremely easy; the only down side is you have to write 1,000 words every week but he is very lenient on the due dates if you can not make them. He is a very down to Earth person that realizes students go through a lot.
