Great Professor. Tests are based completely on his notes which he reitterates amazingly clear and understandable. Book not needed, no midterm nor final, just 3 equally wieghed non cumilative tests, doesnt take attendance although highly recommended.

GREAT PROFESSOR, EXPLAINS EVERYTHING CRYSTAL AND IS WILLING TO REPEAT HIMSELF SO THAT YOU UNDERSTAND.. TAKING HIM NOW AND WILL BE TAKING HIM AGAIN..I HAVE YET TO SEE ATTITUDE COME OUT OF IT! TAKE HIM

AMAZING Professor. I took him during Winter session and thought he was super helpful. Explains everything perfectly w| examples. Study your notes like crazy and you will do well on exams. Don't miss class! He doesn't take attendance but you'll miss important information. Don't buy the book either.

He is not an easy professor but if you attend class regularly, and take good notes you will get a good grade.I took him and got an A.

Excellent teacher, textbook is not mandatory and good class notes are all that's need to pass exams & class. Keeps the class very interesting and give examples with everday life. Definitely recommended. Psy 215 Human Development.

He makes the subject very interesting. He is very passionate about his work, which shows in his teaching skills. He is very clear on all his information. His test are all off his notes, don?t get the book. Take good notes and you will pass his class with an A. Very good teacher.

Professor Preiser is one of the best teachers in the psych. Dept. At York college. His command of the subject makes it worth coming to class. He is extremely clear. He gives great notes and he also asks the class if there was anything that they didn't understand. He is a fair and an effective lecturer. I highly recommend him. His classes also fill up very quickly, this is because he is an honored professor. We need more teachers like him.

Took this course with this professor in the winter intercession and he is such an easy A to get! He lectures in a professional and interesting manner. All you do is listen and write. He repeats often so you don't ever miss a detail. And everything in the notes is in the exam. Great guy, loves to make comparisons to his own personal life and family, and has a good sense of humor along with the subject material. Highly recommended!!!

Best prof. ever

LOVE THIS GUY! Textbook is not needed. Articulate, funny, & passionate about being the best student you can be. Take well written notes & you will pass with an A. Willing to clarify if something is not understood. Doesnt get mad if he has to repeat himself 20 times. He just wants you to listen & think about what he is saying to you.

Gr8 guy , lectures very Well . Exams are more than fair . Notes are very helpful . Good grader . Keeps the course interesting ! . Best Professor Ever !

Textook is not needed. He does not take attendance. However, you should attend every class because his exams are based on his lectures. Obviously, you must take excellent notes! I got an A- in his class. Preiser has a great command of the subject, and he makes it very interesting. His classes fill up extremely fast. Take him if you can.

Excellent professor everything you'll need for a test is within your notes so study study study! Txtbk isn't needed so you'll have to take excellent notes. He rarely takes attendance but it isn't wise to skip. If you miss a day you'll miss a lot.

HE IS THE BEST PROFESSOR AT YORK, NO KIDDING. THIS IS AN IDEAL PROF. HE EXPLAINS CRYSTAL CLEAR, VERY ENERGETIC, GOOD OVERLOOK OF COURSE, MAKES SURE YOU GRASP THE MATERIAL, HIS EXAMS ARE DIRECTLY FROM THE NOTES IN ORDER, DO NOT BUY TEXTBOOK, HE GIVES 3 EXAMS, DOES NOT LIKE WHEN YOU HAVE A SMART * ATTITUDE. A LOT OF MATERIAL FROM ONE CLASS

He is a very difficult grader! You can be doing so good in the class but when the exam comes you feel like you aced it, but when the results come you are confused..

Hard grader. Test are not all multiple choice, he mix multiple choice with fill in blanks. Grades base on test only but gets mad if the students don't participate. I would not take him never ever in my life. He has a tough attitude also. Again tough grader and you can't miss a day because you will miss a lot. I passed his class with B+

Professor Preiser is an effective lecturer. He encourages students to study as if an entire test is going to be fill in the blanks, and thats what his exams reflect. His lecturers are relevant to the textbook. Independent of the course I would definitely take him again as a professor. I recommend him. BTW- Dont challenge him, if so do it tactfully

Best professor for any psychology course. Take notes put in hard work and you will surely pass.

TAKE GOOD NOTES. HIS TEST IS BASED ON THE SIMPLEST NOTES! but he is sch a great professor. Don't miss any classes because you will be missing a good set of notes. best professor! but notes are extremely important. didn't even use the book!

He does not take attendance but you need to attend class and take excellent notes for the exams. If you miss one class, you miss a lot. If you take good notes and study hard you can do well in his class. He is an effective lecturer. Kind of has a rude attitude but I recommend his class because he is very straight forward

Great professor. He makes you interested and is never boring. Has great command of the subject. He's a little rude at times but it's take him again. You can pass his class on notes alone.

This professor is awesome. He keeps you engaged and interested. I would recommend his class.

He is a good professor, he makes the class interesting, his exams are very easy! all the exam questions are from the notes, record his lecture or take good notes

Great Professor, attendance is mandatory seeing that his tests come straight from in class notes. Just go to class, TAKE NOTES,STUDY, and you should do fine.DO NOT BUY THE TEXTBOOK.Exams are a mixture of M.C & Fill-in the blanks that come from notes. Grade is based solely on Exams (3 in all). He is a very fair prof. Lectures are very interesting.

Although he can be snappy, he is an excellent lecturer. Will make sure you understand the material and always leaves time for questions/comments. Do not need the book. TEST ARE BASED OFF HIS LECTURES. DO NOT MISS CLASS. Take him, take him, take him!!

This professor is amazing. He uses real life experiences that will help you grasp concepts. keeps class very interesting, COME TO CLASS TAKE NOTES LISTEN and you will do fine .....NOT AN EASY A YOU GET WHAT YOU PUT IN!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

He is An AMAZING and Hot Professor. He's very clear and coherent. He gives 3 exams and they aren't cumulative. You can pass each as long as you take good notes based off of what he says In class. Overall HE IS THE BEST !!

TAKE NOTES ! Everything he talks about is on the test. He is also a very great professor who explains everything well.

Professor Preiser is literally the best professor,He is very clear and takes his time to teach not like other professors who may try to jam in as much as they can. He is very organized, His tests arefair, there were three of them, and he didnt take attendance everyday. He really made students think and come up with answers in their own. TAKE HIM!

Knows his material like the back of his hand. Truly remarkable professor. Need a ton more like him at York.

His tests aren't cumulative and are based on the notes you take in class. He makes psychology sound so interesting. I loved his lectures. Attendance isn't mandatory but then again. Why wouldn't you show up to his class? His tests are fair. He loves it when you ask questions in class sometimes because he isn't just a teacher that likes to just talk.

his class was very interesting. his notes are really helpful in every aspect. whatever he gives on the notes is what is on the test. he is very fair in his teaching methods. if you pay attention and take notes, then you will do great in his class.

One of the best Professor's at York for a course in Psychology. He is Fair and has a good grading policy. His tests comes directly from the notes taken during the lecture and is very Easy. Just take good notes and study them. His lectures are very interesting and fun to be around. He is truly inspirational and i would love to take him again.

He is one of the most straight forward, laid back professors I've had so far. He says it like it is and his test are FAIR. There is not one question there that he hasn't mentioned. He doesn't take attendance but if you don't go you certainly won't pass. I would take him for future classes if I were a psych major. Just take him and you won't regret!

Take him and you won't regret!

His test are based on his lectures. If you miss one day, you miss a bunch of informations and you have to know the answers to the questions like its not a multiple choice. He's a funny dude, he makes it easy to understand by giving examples from his personal experiences. There are 3 tests, the average of the three tests are your grade.

He's a good professor in explaining the material and provides clear expectations. Somewhat rudeirritable and grades harshly for minor mistakes. Also tends to talk down to students and subtly humiliates some students.

ONE OF THE BEST PROFESSORS AT YORK. MAKE SURE YOU ATTEND CLASS AND TAKE NOTES. HIS EXAMS COME STRAIGHT FROM HIS LECTURES. HE SLOWS DOWN ON KEY TERMS SO MAKE SURE YOUR WRITE IT BC THAT WILL BE ON YOUR EXAM. EXAMS ARE NOT HARD IF YOU TAKE NOTES AND REVIEW THEM DAILY. EASY A!!

Very nice professor, make sure you attend class and take notes, notes are the most important thing here. Pay attention in class his lectures are very interesting and help you understand the subject rather than memorizing everything before the test. His classes are easy if you put in the effort. PAY ATTENTION IN STATS CLASS. UNDERSTANDINGMEMORIZING

By far the hardest course I have taken at York but the one I've learned most from. Preiser is a very good professor! Don't miss any lessons or you will get lost in terms of the work, everything correlates! Gives a few hw and quizzes, nothing crazy! Take him if you want to learn!

Love his class. I'm going to have to retake it soon, but I don't mind since he's such a great professor! Take him if you want to learn :) get there on time though!

Truly an amazing professor that really knows his stuff. I learned a lot from him and you have to study a whole lot in order to do well on his exams. His exams are difficult and literally all based on your notes so make sure you take good notes. His lectures are always interesting and never boring. Overall good professor. Recommend taking him.

Great professor. Learned alot. However I will point out he is a bit rude as far as his facial expressions, But love his lectures, and he uses examples from life experiences. Take notes because your going to need it. TRUELY AN AMAZING PROFESSOR.

No complaints. Straight arrow. follow instructions and you can pass with an easy A. textbook not mandatory. he dummy's down everything, so u can't fail. he doesn't tolerate stupidity, so don't be one of those students. common sense goes a long way. people find him rude, I thought he was right for comments that can be seen as rude. grow a pair ppl!!

hes a great lecturer. all of his exams come from the notes. so if you miss a class, you will miss the notes and your grade will suffer. You will really learn from him as he answers questions, uses real life examples, and explains topics well and in detail. I loved his class and would recommend him.

Amazing professor wish he taught all my classes. Would take him a million times over again. He does not take attendance but if u miss class it makes it more difficult for u. Does not use text book makes his own notes that it is easier for the students to follow. He only give tests on the notes he gave. Fun class . Try not to be disrespectful!!

3 exams all the questions come straight from the notes, great prof

I said it before and I'll say it again. This professor is the best! Never a full moment I'm his class and I love how he explains things based on his life experiences. I was never lost listening to his lectures and I always leave understanding absolutely everything. No textbook needed because he's just awesome. Second time with him and more to go.

The best! He makes the materials taught in his class seem easy and does his best for you to understand by answering your questions after teaching a lesson. Hates to be interuptted, so don't be late! Attendance is a MUST if you want to pass his class.

Professor Preiser is a personality of his own. Very set in his ways, does things his way, BUT, if you take notes and practice no way why you should not pass. Gets outta control at times but we are human and adults grow up. 2nd Greatest Psy professor I have had. Answers emails and questions all the time.

I'm taking his psych stat class and his bio psych. Don't show up late to his class and walk in front of him, he will call you out. Don't unnecessarily chat in his class or he will embarrass you. Take very good notes and be attentive. No need to get the textbook. He tests exactly what he talks about in his class. My favorite psychology professor :)

my best professor so far. study all the notes and come to class you dont need to buy the book. Just pay attention his favorite examples are his children ben and emma. no extra credit.

really great professor. He gets straight to the point, and his lectures are really engaging. Take good notes, and you will not need the book. He can be a bit snappy, but don't take it personal. He doesn't

Hes a fair teacher if you take his class be ready to write a lot of notes and live by those notes the textbook isnt really needed his exams are based off of his notes and hes clear on what you should expect fair teacher his format of test is multiple choice/short answer.

Amazing speaker in regards to lecturing at a good pace. You must show up to class because all the tests are based on the lectures, however attendance is not taken daily. Textbook is not necessary, you just need to pay attention and ask questions if you are unsure about something. Show up, take good notes and you should be all good! (PS No homework)

unless you can get the notes from someone do not skip class. the text book isnt needed so dont buy it just take good notes and study it. there is no home work just 3 exams. whoever said he's horrible and rated him low have an issue. truly amazing

3 exams, a mixture of more short answers and less amount of multiple choice. Understand TERMS for you will answer the question wrong. EX: criteria do not mean what instruments "tools" to use. The class is treated as you are the clinician in diagnosing a child. Like what specialist needed, what instruments(scales to use) criteria for programs

Without any doubt I can say that he's the best professor I've had this semester. He gets straight to the point and his lectures are really easy to understand. He doesn't give any homework or any work at all but there are 3 exams and they're a easy 100 if you listen in class and takes notes appropriately. Funny too, I highly recommend his class.

The class is a few hours, but time flies with the professor's engaging lectures and entertaining stories that help you remember the content. The professor is straightforward about what he expects from you and what you can expect from the class. He gives three exams that are based on his lectures. Take good notes, and you'll do great in his class.

He has a tough attitude. But don't play dumb and always show up on time. He is aware of students that are always late and absent. You don't need the textbook because he gives lots of examples in class. He gives quizzes that come directly from his class examples. He tells you exactly what is on his tests. Limited HW but its due at the start of class

One of the most passionate professors at York. He genuinely cares about his students and you can tell he loves his job ( and Mountain dew). He is very straightforward about the material you need to know. If you know your notes inside out, I guarantee you will get an A. He does not tolerate nonsense. Just use common sense people.

BEST PROF AT YORK! 3 tests (each worth 33%), no homework, no projects. Just make sure to take really good notes since his tests are all note-based. Take him, you won't regret it. He's hilarious and relatable and uses his family as examples through lectures. I LITERALLY LOVE HIM!!!

His lectures are very clear and engaging. There is no homework, or projects. He only counts the exams grades. All his exam questions are from the notes that you take in class, don't miss class. As long as you take good notes you will do well.

Professor Preiser is an amazing professor. His exams are based off his lectures. Take good notes in his class and you will do great on his exams. Professor will explain anything you don't understand and he explains his lectures with depth and understanding. I would take his class again.

If you get the chance I have to take this professor he is really good if u take notes I guaranteed an A

This was one of my favorite classes to look forward too! His lectures never leave you bored and all you have to do is take notes to pass. All the test/exams are based on whats discussed during the lectures. Hes also very understanding.

I choose Psychology as my major and half the reason is because of this guy. I was recommended Preiser by some friends of mine and it was the best decision I ever made. He makes the lectures fun and exciting and makes it easy to understand. All his exams are from his lectures so make sure you take good notes. I have nothing bad to say about him.

Professor Preiser was a really good professor. There is no homework, or any assignments. Just exams. Exams come from the lectures so be sure to pay attention and take good notes!

He knows how to teach the material very well. I did not attend his live lectures, i just watched the recordings. His exams are a bit challenging ( if you don't cheat) but are based on his notes. All of your grade is determined just by the 3 exams and nothing else. I would take him again.

Professor Preiser is very thorough during his lectures and always teaches everything that will be on the test. You just need to know how to take good notes and study, as long as you have excellent notes and put in the effort to review the material you should do amazing in this class. 10/10 would recommend!!

Good teacher. Show up to his lectures, make sure to listen to every-EVERY detail, the tests are based on everything he says, not the textbook. Although attendance isn't mandatory, missing class will not help you. Take notes, only those will help you pass. Do not rely on others for notes, take them yourself!

Professor Preiser is a gem, I liked his way of teaching. He would give you the test based on the notes taken in class. Attendance isnt mandatory but if you dont get the notes you will not pass. There were 3 total exams including the final. If you study for them you would finish in about 30 mins.

Phenomenal professor, listen and take notes and itll get you an easy A, funny guy but very serious when it comes to work, I thought it would be overwhelming but the tests are not cumulative so just study at a good pace and youre good.

Honestly,Professor Presier is a great man. Take notes and attend his lectures and you will be fine. He can be strict when he wants to be.

To be honest, hes a good professor but you definitely need to take good notes to pass his class! Study those notes!!

One of the best Professors I've taken in the fall semester. Take him if you can, he's very informative during class sessions, be sure to take notes. The questions on the exams are entirely based on what he teaches during class so there are no surprises. Overall he's pretty good.

Professor Preiser is one of those professor that you can tell really care about their profession and know a LOT about what they're teaching. Every lecture is engaging and is explained in ways that anyone could understand. His class is easy to pass if you take good notes and attend class. Everything on the tests mirrors what was said in class.

Great Professor! I took PSY226 with him, great lectures, funny and informative. Just pay attention in class and you'll do great. Attendance isnt mandatory, but it will be hard to pass if you dont attend class. The bad reviews probably didnt attend class.

Best way to get a good grade...don't skip classes, take notes, all the questions are from his notes. He has awesome discussion sessions. He does not bring anything for exams which he didn't discuss in class. Awesome job!

Professor Preiser is one of the best professors and teachers I have ever had. His class is educational and you really want to be in his class. Yes he doesn't require attendance, however if you want to pass his class, attendance is highly recommended. His exams are not on the material, they are on his lectures. Will not regret taking his class!

Great Professor.. For me, almost every class was very interesting. Only 3 exams for the class that counts towards your grade. Attendance is not mandatory but you must take very good notes to pass his exams. His class is easy to pass if you take good notes and study very well before the exams

very easy class if you take notes and participate in class. and he makes lecture not boring.

Prof. Preiser has a clear and concise way of lecturing. Even if you aren't going into the field of psychology, his lectures are so interesting and engaging. He also has a clever way of matriculating his personal life/experiences into his lectures for a more realistic touch. If you need psych as a course requirement, Preiser is your guy!

Very easy class . He makes lectures very entertaining . Taking notes is very vital for your grade in this class . Overall he is a great teacher

He is an amazing professor. As long as you pay attention to what he is saying and the questions your peers are asking you will pass his exams. He gave 3 exams, which all counted towards the final grade. No homework.

He's amazing!!!!!

Best Psych Professor you will ever meet. He treats you like a adult, not a child. Sets expectations from day 1. If you come to class and take notes, You will Pass. Simple as that. Thoroughly explains everything, repeats himself if necessary and gives you a chance to write down the notes. Unlike others, He doesn't rush through his lecture.

I enjoyed his intro to psych class. The grade was based on three exams and mandatory research pool participation. He makes the class enjoyable; the topics are super interesting if you're into psychology or introspection. He also genuinely cares about his students' mental well-being and gives positive advice! Just make sure to take notes in class!

One of the best professors! His lectures are always interesting and he doesn't drag out the lectures. You MUST take notes because he hardly writes notes & he doesn't use slides. All his exams are based on what he say during his lectures. There are only 3 exams, no homework or in class assignments. If you listen to his lectures you will pass!!

Professor Preiser is something! He has great thorough understanding of his field, and is absolutely hilarious and down to earth. One of the few non-robotic functioning teachers out there. His lectures are still repeating in my head and Im not even a Psych major. If you a want a good, dedicated intro to psych prof., this is your guy.

Professor Preiser runs a structured class. Take diligent notes, use unstuck study for study prep, and you'll do well on the 3 exams that determine the grade.

Only grades you on the midterm and final, which are both online. Make sure you come to class because he doesn't upload the slides and sometimes he teaches of the slides using his own words.

if you're looking to take him, do it. let this be the review that motivates you. i have never felt more inspired by a professor. i changed my major to psychology because of how much this class inspired me to pursue this path. all tests were online, no notes were posted online so as long as you show up to class and take notes you will succeed!!!

Great professor

Best Psych Professor in all of York College. Took him for 3 semesters straight and would take him for the rest of my time here at York if he was teaching other classes. Take him. You will never regret it!!

Really great professor i also took him for 2 other psych classes. Knows his stuff. Will work with you individually. Makes the hardest content easily understandable. One of my favorite professors at york

he is definitely a good professor I took him for two classes and I wasn't disappointed . take notes study and you will get a good grade come to class a well

Outta all my professors this semester, this one is my favorite. One, NO HOMEWORK! Who wouldn't love that? One thing I will say, do pay attention to the lectures, take good notes maybe have a buddy or two if you miss a class but he usually reviews past lectures so you won't miss much! Very chill, very respectful, super kind and funny too!

One of the best professors I've ever had. For class clear grading criteria, 3 exams (non-cumulative) and research pool. The topics he teaches are all off the dome and he really puts an effort to make sure everyone is getting what he is teaching. He never puts anything in the exams that he didn't go over. Prof Preiser is one of the best!!!!
