She is incredible. I have never had a professor with so much energy. She makes me laugh throughout the entire class and yet she is also extremely clear. She tells you exactly what to write for the essay portion of the test. Psych is a lot of memory, but she breaks it down well. I definitely suggest taking her class!

She claims to care about her students but when I went up to her after class she wouldn't even look me in the eye. So I guess she is fine if you don't mind just being another number and make sure to take notes because if they are not up to her standards you will get sent out of the applications.

Professor Byers is an excellent professor, and I would definitely encourage other students to take her. The class is pretty lecture heavy, but Professor Byers is very entertaining and engaging. She offers numerous opportunities for extra credit. Pay attention and participate during class and you'll do just fine!

All the other five star reviews are correct, Professor Byers is amazing! She would also go around to each table at the beginning of class and check in with us and ask how we were doing which I really appreciated. She extremely knowledgable, kind, and teaches incredibly well. 10/10!

Professor Byers runs a pretty strict class, but if you stay engaged and use tools like unstuckstudy for study prep, you can succeed. She cares about her students, though her teaching style may rub some the wrong way. Overall, a solid psychology course.

It's a chore to take this class online. If you're looking for a fun and easy elective, don't take this class. I've heard good things about the in-person course, but the online course is not worth the time. It's just frustrating. I have an A and I am continuing to do the SONA extra credit, but this course takes more work than my upper divisions.

Took this online—super straightforward. Clear rubrics, easy A if you follow them. Tests match the chapters, so do the readings + weekly assignments. She's super helpful and quick to respond. 10/10 recommend!

It was just an alright online course. Things could've been clearer and the tests slowly started to not look like the course information. I still got a good grade, but this class felt meticulous and I've heard better things about the in-person lecture version. If you can, go do that.

libby byers is so nice and she loves to crack a joke. her class is very lecture heavy but also good amount of group in class activity's. All assignments really easy and essay very strategic forward if you pay attention in class you'll make good grades. She also offers extra credit but not needed if you pay attention your grade will match.

Libby's class is an easy A.Each week, she assigns two assignments and one unit quiz. As long as you read the slides/go through the study guide, it's a straightforward pass. Her assignments always come with a clear rubric, so if you follow it closely getting a high grade is pretty easy. She's also really responsive to emails, which is super helpful.

I took her class online and the only reason I would say her work was hard is her study guide need to be a little more specific. We didn't have textbook for this class that cost but we would have weekly readings.

Super easy class and professor is one of the best at the university. Attendance is mandatory for a grade but she drops 4 at the end of the semester. There are 6 assignments for the class and half are in class only plus the lowest score is dropped. There are only 3 exams and no final! Overall amazing class and recommend taking!!
