She's great. Funny, knowledgeable, and she makes the class interesting.
She's a funny little foreign lady, but her tests are unnecessarily hard and specific. I dropped that ish.
Great Teacher. Do you work and put a decent amount of time into the course and you will be fine.
Ms. Romero is a very good teacher. Class is never boring. She makes you want to come to class. I hated psychology until i had her as my teacher she is the best psyc teacher at san jac. take her you wont regret it.
she makes the class fun...very good teacher..would recommemnd
very good teacher ...would recommend her to everyone that hasnt taken a psychology or lifespan class yet....she knows her info and class is very interesting
She makes class fun.
Shes an awesome teacher, she is very willing to help you if you need it the only thing i did not like about her course was the fact that i had to write a paper. It wasn't very hard though. Tests arn't the hard, i haven't opened the book and i made a B
Class was very interesting... if you go to class take notes and read the book you will do fine her test are very specific and long questions so study hard for those. i would recomend if you want an interesting class and want to learn Psych.
She is a funny Lady. But she is not helpful at all and does not give reviews at all. Does not follow the book. Never know what will be on her tests. Very random.
Great teacher. Very concise, thorough, and helpful.
great teacher
Go to class and you will get an A
Shes awesome!!!! Very open minded and she makes you feel comfortable discussing personal issues. Definately take her.
if you want to talk about erections instead of class material, take her class.
She's pretty funny. She writes an outline out on the board for you. Her tests aren't hard just long. Like and teacher if you study you will do fine in her class.
Wonderful teacher!! Very energetic...makes the class interesting. I would defenitely recommend her to anyone. If you study you will do great in her class!!
Funny teacher! She writes all of the notes on the chalkboard and gives out examples for every topic.
She is a good teacher but it is very hard to get an A. You will learn alot but also READ the book. That's where the tests come from. She's also hot and cold depending on her mood that day.
This is an awesome teacher! She is exciting and she has a wild sense of humor. Her tests are hard and you must study! Just take all her notes down and study from them. Her class is very interesting and if you take it, you will learn a lot and have fun.
she is a good teacher but her test are really hard if you read the book and study the notes you will do just finee...
mAKES ME LAUGH EVERYDAY MAKES THE CLASS VERY INTERESTING YOU WON'T FALL ASLEEEP IN THERE.
Take her for every level. If you have room in your schedule, take human sexuality. She is a riot. I leave class in a good mood because i laugh at her so much.
She is a very good teacher plus she is funny. Her test are hard, you have to READ the book and STUDY your butt off to get an A. Over all she is very helpful and will go over what you don't understand.
Wasn't the easiest prof i've ever had, but it is definitly possible to do very well. Take good notes, read the book, and do the paper. Funny lady.
Very Entertaining, funny teacher. She gives lots of real world examples and stories. Unlike 90% of the class,I didn't think the tests were hard at all. I also studied alot. Read the book.
very good!
She is able to test her students over the entire book in one semester. Trust me this is not because she covers everything. The tests are about the book, the notes in class are useless because they only cover about 3 concepts in a chapter that has more than ten.
AWESOME professor!!! She is honestly the reason I decided to major in Psychology, get an M.A., AND become a Psychology professor. She is so much fun! I learned to take good notes from her, and how to study better. Pay attention to examples in class, and READ!
She gives great lecture but her tests are mostly conceptual knowledge. You MUST read the WHOLE textbook and study your notes if you want an A. Alot of group projects (writing papers in class on a topic). Also must write a 5-7 page report. She's tough but an EXCELLENT PROFESSOR!
this is a difficult class. regardless of your paradigm you will not agree with everything that is taught. you will find out a lot of psyc.'s claims don't exactly come from good science. use your own brain and passions when writing for her. it will serve you well. she is a good teacher who is passionate about what she teaches
GOOD TEACHER.....BUT VERY DIFFICULT CLASS! DO NOT TAKE IN MINI -TOO MUCH INFO AND READING FOR 3 WEEKS! MUST STUDY AND MOST IMPOTANTLY...READ! LAST TEST IS THE MOST DIFFICULT. STUDY HARD!
She is an awesome teacher, but these are not blow off classes. You have to read and study alot. I read every Chapter word for word, made flashcards and studied her notes and for the life of me I got a B+ in both Human Sexuality and Lifespan. If you want an easy A do not take her. She does make class fun though and she is very funny and interesting.
SHE IS A VERY FUNNY PROFESSOR, AND THESE OTHER PEOPLE AREN'T LYING, STUDY NOTES AND READ BOOK!!!! ITS A MUST! SHE GIVES A BUNCH OF REAL WORLD EXAMPLES THAT HELP ALOT. IF YOU PAY ATTENTION AND STUDY, YOU WILL DO VERY WELL IN THAT CLASS.
Wonderful teacher! One of my favorites. I took her for Psych. and then for Lifespan. It is not a cake walk class but pay attention, take notes, and READ and you will do just fine. She is also very, very funny and tells the most interesting life stories. She is a remarkable woman! I hope to be able to accomplish as much as she has.
Romero is a teacher who really teaches and not just give you something to memorize, you will learn a lot from her and she is a very intertaining and makes the class fun.
I did not enjoy this prof. She was funny, but slightly unfair in the group assignments. Also, I got an 89 for the class, and she would not bump it up to an A even though she had broke up my writing group because we were doing too well. =/
I love her she is so funny heheh!!!!
I've enjoyed her class SO MUCH! Her lectures are awesome and she has GREAT stories! The tests are hard, but you can get a good grade if you just try. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for ANY psych course!
She make the class soo fun! I like her alot and I would take her again!
I luv her! omg she i so funny! i luv the fact that she is so blunt! she's an awesome teacher and makes the class fun..she not all monotone either!
Very energetic and funny. Keeps you awake, makes you laugh, and cute in a funny way. Love the class.
Awesome. Youll love her.
Romero is a great teacher. She keeps you interested and wanting to know more.
She is a great professor to listen to in class, yet her tests are hard and she gives A LOT of assignments to complete in a short time frame. Do NOT take this in a mini session.
If you are in class for lectures and study the notes for test you will pass. She makes the class fun.
she's a good teacher, funny and keeps class interesting. Tests are hard but if you study online and the book you shouldn't have a problem. I would recommend her to anyone!
I loved her class! She is hilarious. I actually looked forward to going to this class. Her tests can be difficult but as long as you look over your notes you should be fine.
Great Teacher. Extremely funny and realy cares about her students. The fact that she is HOT also helps.
this lady is retarded!! do not take this class you will hate her. Her tests are very hard, she jumps around all over the place and hardly anything she covers in class is on the test. TAKE SOME ONE ELSE!!!
Her lectures are very interesting. I have to admit she made me a better mother. Read Chapters and take good notes to pass with a B.
This class is not an easy A, but then again many sophomore level courses are ratically difficult. So just vew this course as a warmup because I doubt that 3000 or 4000 level courses are any easier. Do you see the pattern here: 1st yr. - easy, 2nd yr. - okay, 3 rd yr. slightly diffucult, 4th yr. - hard. ENJOY!
She is a great teacher. She is very worldly educated and so knowledgeable. I loved her lectures and the examples she uses. I took Lifespan during the mini so it was tough. She still had 5 tests and a 5 page paper, but it was interesting. Her tests are hard. I only made a B in the class when I expected an A, but I did learn a lot.
She is an awesome instructor! I took her for General Psyc, Lifespan & Human Sexuality! If you get a chance, take her for all your psyc courses! You'll learn a lot!
she is a great prof. very clear and explains stuff in a way that keeps you awake! you must study your notes and read book, test are some what hard and the paper sucks
I enjoyed attending this class prof. has lots of interesting stories. But it is kind of hard. You have to read the book and study the notes. As long as you do that you will be fine.
Pro.Romiro,is a great teacher. she knows what she's talking about when it comes to psychology and she is very cultured which is a plus. she loves to be asked questions about this subject, she has a good sense of humor. the paper kinda sucks butyou learn from it. anyone who is think about what teacher to take, take her,she is awesome.
HAD HER FOR LIFESPAN SPRING 2007. SUBJECT INTERESTING AND USEFUL INFORMATION THAT APPLIES TO EVERYONE. TAKE NOTES AND KNOW DEFINITIONS AND YOU'LL DO FINE. YOU ARE REQUIRED TO WRITE A PAPER ALSO TO PASS. I REALLY ENJOYED HER CLASS.
Great Prof. I really enjoyed taking her for both Gen.& LifeSpan. She has lots of knowledge. You do write a paper in both classes, but their a piece of cake. Read book & study your notes & you'll be Ok!!
She is a very good professor. Her lectures are easy to understand and very interesting. Her tests go directly off of the notes, but her tests are all "application". I would recommend her to other students.
she's cool. there is a paper and you really have to study for the tests. look at the online book and the study guide handout in the bookstore. but you should be fine.
omg, i loved her!! she is so cool, she makes the class really interesting and is so goofy at times but thats the way she keeps your interest. her notes are really good, as long as you study those along with the book, you'll do awesome! she has a paper, but it's easy and she grades it easily too. she likes people to ask questions.
Super easy teacher! All you have to do is show up and take notes. Her tests are based on her lecture, just skim through the book before the test. I got an A, makes the subj very interesting teacher. Totally Recommend!!!
well this woman requires a book. Her lectures are fun and if you want to learn your stuff this is the class you need to take
Prof. Romero is amazing!!!! She lets you know exactly what she expects and is more than happy to help any student that needs it. She makes learning fun.I'm taking her again for another class.
Romero is a great teacher! make sure you go to class,she makes everythig really funny and you are learning and you dont even relize it..its a great class to take.. if i had to take her again for another class i would. DO TAKE THIS TEACHER SHE IS AN AAWESOME TEACHER!SHE GIVES TONS OF EXAMPLES AND EXPLAINATIONS!TILL YOU NDERSTAND IT!I LOVE THIS CLASS
Ms. Romero, is an excellent teacher, she uses a lot of personal experiences to get you to think and remember the material. She encourages classroom participation.
Romero is AMAZING!!! I took her for lifespan and general psych. She's helpful and makes sure you understand the material during lecture.
Mrs. Romero is wonderful!!!!!!! She lectures every day and her test are pulled directly from her notes and her notes are pulled directly from the textbook!!!!
She makes class somewhat funny. Covers VERY little of the material on tests. Gives no review for exams. Very strict on attendence. If you read the book and then re-skim over the pages you won't even need to take notes. Overall I'd say she is a bad teacher, but getting an A in her class is do-able.
I have taking Mrs. Romero for general psych and life span. I have also taken other classes in psychology at San Jac Central and she is the best teacher I have had. You must read or at least review your book, because about 70% of her tests are from lecture and the remaining 30% is from the book. She is one of SJC best profs. She is also very helpfu
She will make you study and you will learn allot but she makes it interesting. She's very enthusiastic, entertaining, and explains topics elaborately and clearly.
I enjoyed her class. she made it very interesting. you do need the book and you do need to read it and as long as you pay attention you should be ok
She's funny but she's not nice. She won't remind you when the test gonna come and u have to check the syllabus. NO REVIEW BEFORE TEST. And you have to read ALL OVER the chapter for every test and a test often cover 3 chapters. She just gives example and explain in class but her exams come from both note and text book. Not reccommend!
She's not an easy class, but she's thorough and fair. Pay attention. Take notes. Read the book. I recommend her for anybody wanting to succeed at higher levels because she's good preparation.
She is a great teacher. she gives tons of examples. test come straight from the notes and a little comes from the book. she makes class fun, and interesting. she always made me want to be there. hear class was great.
Funny teacher. Her notes are useful, and she encourages you to read the book. When she lectures make sure you write the examples because they give you a better way of understanding. Tests are not hard, but you have to analyze the questions (multiple choice). Just study the notes and scan the book; You'll do just fine.
Took her for general and life span. I absalutly loved her! She just makes it completly enjoyable to be in her class. BUT her notes do not prepare you at all for the test and she tells you that. So you HAVE to read the book! They are long chapters so its hard to remember it all. I was okay with the B just because i loved her class!
She is a very good profesor so far. She is even funny at times. You would really enjoy her class.
She keeps the class interesting. Her tests are easy all you have to do is read the book and make sure you know all of the examples that she talks about in class.
Awesome prof! She's funny, and genuinely encourages class discussion. Don't be afraid to speak up, even if you think what you have to say might not be popular. Romero respects ALL students and honors ALL class input. You will often hear her say "Read the book, class." She means it. Read,show up, and listen. You'll make an A. Take her!
Ms Romero is a great teacher. She made psychology interesting and had the class laughing often each meeting. She wants all her students to pass. She is very respectful and kind. Take good notes and skim the book and you will make a B, read the book - A. Not a class to slack on. Keep up with studying and you will be rewarded. Tests are somewhat easy
I just took her for LifeSpan in Summer I and she is great! First time to take her and I loved her! She does not believe in memorizing so make the effort to really understand the material and u will do just fine! She's very helpful. Read the book n take good notes and u will do just good! I'd take her again if I could. :)
I had Mrs. Romera for both General Psychology and Life Span and Development. She is the type of teacher you wish all of them are like. She is a straight forward person and teacher. If I could I would have her for all my classes.
She is an amazing proffessor. She's really funny and you'll love her personality and she's for her students and is very helpful. general psychology is a breeze with her
Mrs. Romero is awesome! I mean, truly amazing. If you're looking for a teacher that will be interesting and engaging, she's the one. You do have to go to class. If you pay attention to ALL the lectures, you'll pass. I never read the book. I also put hott because she's 50 something and has some fierce legs! I can't say enough, she's incredible.
She is freakn AMAZING!!! She is always in a great mood and she puts everyone in a great mood. You do have to go to class though, but she is soo funny. I put shes hot because shes is my grandmas age and looks amazing
i love her she is so awesome i would love to take her again,and again she just great we didnt use the book but if you are one of those people who need the book then get it if not her notes are better.TAKE HER you will love her
I've commented before about Ms Romero. I took her again for Human Sexuality and I just signed up for her lifespan class. I wish she could teach me everything. I love her very much.
AWESOME professor! I love her and her class. She's super funny and laid-back. The whole class is just lecture and taking notes and if u study notes you will make an A. Her tests aren't memorizing, they're more application. I will be taking her for lifespan
Awesome Teacher!! Very informative, will learn lots. Be sure to write down her examples she gives in class(on test) Very helpful,easy going, and just a wonderful person all together. Do not really use book very often so really not worth buying. Would recommend you take her as often as you can!! Hope this helps.
Love her! I had her for General Psych and again for Lifespan. I Will sign up for her Sexuality class. I Want her to teach all of my claSses! Take good notes and read the book And show up to class and you'll ace the class! Shes amazing!
She Is awesome. Hilarious, keeps things interesting. The stuff she says will shock you. take her!Just come to class and take good notes, you'll ace it.
Professor Romero is an amazing professor! She's hilarious and she makes class fun. Not to mention her style is quite different, in a good way! She's very clear on what will be on the exams. If you take lots of notes and pay attention, you'd do great!
Love love love this professor. She is hilarious and very interactive. She loves her job and is great at teaching. Would take her again in a heartbeat!
I expected the class to be easy, but it required a lot of effort to maintain A exam grades. I read the book cover to cover for assigned chapters but that was because I need A's. I am glad I studied so much bc I feel a bit enlightened. Good professor, engaging discussions. Recommend this professor. I only wish she used BB for quicker grade posting.
Very funny and outgoing teacher!! Loved her!! Even though I had her for a morning class I was never sleepy or tired. She definitely is one of a kind. Very caring towards her students and you can tell she has a passion for teaching. You do have to read the book and be on time to class...she does dislike tardiness. Take her! You wont regret it!!! :)
mrs.romero is a funny teacher, real good at what she does and if you ever need help she will defenietly help you no matter what in her class she believes in there are no stupid questions in her class show up to class the notes she gives are super helpful don't just read the book.
Great teacher, actually teaches, funny,I looked forward to class. Dislikes tardies, will help after class, test come from test bank, very generic questions
She is super funny. She made the class really interesting and non boring. She explains so well and uses the board to show you how to understand and WANTS you to ask questions she doesn't care. But if you dont pay attention then the tests will be really difficult.
You definately need your book in her class. It helps to read the chapters before coming into her class to understand her lectures on notes she gives you. She wants you to ask questions. She also has open conference times. She dislikes tardiness.
Great Teacher. Must read and take good notes
Proffesor Romero was the absolute best! I never took psychology before but she made me love it. She is great, teaches very clearly & provides many example to get the point accross. She is very funny also! Ask questions, she provides the most interesting answers. I recommend her. You have to pay attention, be there everyday & you'll do great.
I love this tiny little lady with a passion! I recommend her to just about anyone that's interested in Psychology. She's sweet, easy to understand, and a very entertaining teacher. If you take notes every time, you'll do great!
Mrs Romero is by far one of the BEST teachers at San jac. There's really no room for failing, aslong as you attend class and take/study notes you will defenitely pass! Her class was not only educational but FUN as well. Highly recommended!!!
Shes awesome, definitely recommend taking her. Most of her class is from the textbook, and goes over it in her lectures and wants you to ask questions..which I think its awesome.Pay attention and read the book and you'll do fine.
Very hard on her test.
shes a funny teacher but the test dont match with the notes or the book. her test are random and she dont give reviews at all. even tough people say shes funny and all that, that is not going to help you pass the course. take another professor insted, ill be better if you do.
Such a great professor, i took her at 7:00 in the morning twice a week, and i always looked forward to going, even though im not much of a morning person!fantastic lectures! gave great examples and was always asking if we had questions. she made everything so undestandable i dont know how some people would fail the test. TAKE HER YOU WONT REGRET IT
I am a high school student and I took this class as part of the Early College Program. I have never looked forward to class, but she made me want to go! Now, I am not the brightest student in the bunch, but I managed to get an A. Her course consist of five exams. They are over three chapters each and are weighted the same. Simple questions! :)
Absolutely the worst psychology teacher ever! her test are based on 60 questions and they don't even match the notes that are given in class she moves way to fast in lecture and she is very rude and interrupts you when you are asking a question.I do not recommend her it is basically a self taught class so if you want to learn find another teacher
This class is an easy A. I never read the book, just studied notes and got an A. However, her tests run differently. You must deeply process to understand concept, whenwho or what it came from and where it belongs. She gives lots of examples, I always studied before class and was able to make it through. Gives extra credit.
I did not take this class seriously so I did not get the grade I wanted. But she is really nice. Good professor gives a lot of examples. You will take quizzes for every 3 chapters of so. Gives opportunity for extra credit. Make sure you do the essay and 2-3 weeks before have her proof read it so you can do great.
Professor Romero is hilarious. She is truly passionate about what she does. You can tell. You have to read in order to pass this class. Read something. Anything. Take great notes, pay attention. She loves it when you ask questions. If you miss her class, you miss a great chunk of lecture. If you pay attention, her lectures are quite engaging.
Awesome professor. She makes the lectures interesting and they just fly by! Always provides you with multiple examples, explains the materials very well. However, her tests are application tests, so make sure to study the textbook as well. I recommend this professor a 100%
She is great! She is a fun and engaging professor and she won't feel like a stranger to you. She has great stories that relate to the subject matter and she'll make class a breeze! She's also very kind and makes sure that her students are doing fine outside of the class and is very understanding if things come up.
Recommend! She is very inspirational!
Love her lectures. She is an amazing professor & I can truly tell she has a passion for teaching and cares about her students. I had her class at 7AM & actually always looked forward to going. I love how she explains notes she gives a lot of examples and wants you to understand. She keeps you engaged and class is over before you know it. love her!
Loved the lectures! This class is pretty much how a college class should be. She explained when things were due and was accessible if you had any questions. The book is ESSENTIAL. She goes over the chapters but if you miss a class you'll need the book to fall back on (you can still pass if you miss). Also very funny which helps!
One of my favorite teachers EVER!!!! I had her for Honers Psychology, and I loved every class. I looked forward to her lectures and she made studying and writing papers fun. I enjoyed the honors class because there was so much discussion among the students and you could tell that everyone wanted to be there. I would take her again in a heartbeat!
Amazing Psychology professor! As long as you study, you will pass. Her lectures are funny and she is very honest. I would take her again in a heart beat. My major is Psychology and she made me love Psychology even more. She is very insightful and inspiring. She also gave out free books that she didn't want anymore and I took plenty of them :)
Professor Romero is so cute. She's hilarious and explains the material easy enough that you don't even have to read the book. We always had review days and she would MAKE SURE you understood everything. She wants you to pass. One of the best professors I've ever had. Tried to take her again for PSYC II but her classes were full.
