I thought she was hilarious, and a great teacher!

She's so awesome! I learned so much from her! Very worthwhile class!

Very fun, but is more of a goof than a teacher.

History and Systems is a tough class. Her tests are very difficult, study hard. She makes class fun and is fair. If you have a question on the test, ask her!

Very nice and funny teacher, but her tests are not as easy as she leads you to believe.

Great lecturer, easy to understand, you learn a lot and she's fun to listen to.

Awesome class! Linda makes the subject material interesting and easy to understand. Her tests are hard though.

shes a friendly, decent professor. study, and u should be fine.

She does a great job in helping you understand through stories and experiences. Dr. Yelland is a very kind hearted woman and would do anything to assist her students.

Linda Yelland is an awesome Professor. She is extremely clear and wants her students to succeed. This was my second class w/Prof. Yelland, and it will definitely not be my last.

Great professor! Coming from engineering, this teacher is very entertaining and makes it very hard to get below a C. Studied for about an hour for each test and received an A on each one

I think she makes up the stories she tells as truth, but they are still relevent and entertaining. GO TO CLASS and YOU WILL PASS.

Made a boring topic fun!! Awesome professor

Love this professor! I have her for the first time this semester for two classes, and they're both my favorite! She's funny and nice and easy-going, as well as very knowledgable! Take her classes, you won't regret it!

She is an awesome professor. She tells you what questions will be on the test, very nice lady. But kinda crazy too.

Awesome Professor!

I Love Dr. Yelland! She is a bit nutty but that only makes her more fun! She knows her stuff!

This was my first class of my freshman year at the university and it was great. I am a junior now, and she is one of my favorite professors I have had thus far!

I loved her class and I loved her stories. She is the only teacher to ever keep my full attention in a 9am class!!!!

WONDERFUL TEACHER!!!! One of my favorites!

Linda is a wonderful professor and a recommend to any Psych major.

I have had several classes with Linda. She is so fun! She's nutty, but she knows her stuff, and it's a fun nutty! Very understanding and very helpful!

Linda Yelland is the best professor ever. She has so much energy for an 8:00am class, she keeps my interest for the entire class period. She is very helpful and is willing to do anything to help her students and their are no tricky questions on her exams.

Linda is a pleasure. Her class is very entertaining and informational. She's very clear about what will be on exams. She makes me laugh so hard. I think I even have a bit of a crush on her, and as a gay man that is damn good!

She's an amazing professor. She doesn't waste time in class, she keeps things interesting, and she's one of the nicest people you could meet.

She's so enthusiastic to teach, and very funny. I learned a lot from Dr. Yelland.

Great teacher! extremely funny...tells you exactly what's on the test...loves her job and likes to have fun...only the people who don't try in her class and don't go to class hate her...it's easy to get an A and learn the important stuff in psy 100

Linda is GREAT!!!! Not only does she make calls fun, exciting, and a pleasure to attend, but she also makes sure that any student that wants to put forth the bare essentials is well prepared to take her exams. I really enjoyed this class, and that rarely happens in classes when I learn a lot. Thanks

She's very funny and laid back only thing though is that if her text books were any more watered down we would all drown. I liked her class got an A sold text and bought another text from Smiths class to keep for my own use. Just listen to her being funny and get an easy "A"!

I have taken three of Linda's classes: Social Psych, Motivation and Learning. I learned a lot, and she was supportive and energetic about her teaching. I would recommend her to anyone.

I'm not a morning person but she made me want to get up for the 9 am class, I didnt miss a day!!!

Linda is the best teacher I ever had. She can make a dry subject come alive. The Univ. of Maine is very lucky to have her on staff. She cares about students, is passionate about the subject, and she is very fair. I wish more Univ. Prof's. cared about their students the way that she does. Two Thumbs UP!!

She is Entertaining, funny, Easy "A", BUT if you actually want to learn psychology don't take her class. Her texts are a joke. She's great for a no brainer class and you'll get a good laugh, though I don't think she realizes that people are laughing at her and not with her.

AMAZING! This is a first class educator...

She captures the attention of her students. She covers a lot of material and teaches in a very laid back and entertaining way, which is so refreshing. I've taken numerous classes from her and personally learned a lot in those classes. She is very to the point and doesn't waste your time.She's out to teach for understanding and keep it clear.

This professor may not appeal to psychological snobs since she usually does not lecture in constant psychological banter. She uses experiences to demonstrate theories, which doesn't mean she isn't capable. It conveys that she wants all students to be able to adapt theories & terms successfully. Exams are easy if you study notes & use study guide.

Interesting enough lectures, if you can wake up inthe morning for them. She's funny, and describes things in great detail. Often gives test questions & answers IN CLASS.

Hilarious, likes to tell stories to illustrate the material. VERY understanding about make-up exams. After an hr of class she gave us 20 min to get breakfast. Not on the study guide = not on the test.Need psy credits? busy schedule?TAKE A CLASS WITH LINDA! Sleep in & watch the vids if you prefer!The Umaine hater below can't even spell lazy or laid!

easy class and professor as long as you don't slack and watch/go to the lectures. she's entertaining and has a lot of good examples.

Linda is an amazing professor, she it alittle unorthodox which is why I think a lot of students like her, lets face it, someone needs to be entertaining that early in the morning, he stories always illustrate the topic and she is very understanding as far as exams. Show up and take notes and you will get an A.

ABSOLUTELY the most fantastic professor on campus. She's fun, makes the material interesting, and is just an amazing person. (she gave me 2$ for coffee one morning without me asking). This woman deserves an award. I switched my major to psych because she made it so fascinating. People say its easy because she really cares about our grades!

Dr. Yelland is by far a professor who cares about her students. While her classes are fun, she gets the point accross.TWO THUMBS WAY UP!! I learned a lot about why humans do the things they do and her application of theory into everyday experiences is amazing. A+ professor.

Great teacher! Really funny. She tries her best to keep the class interesting even if the topic is VERY boring. Theres no homework and the exams are super easy. Its quite obvious that she cares about her students.

She's a really great professor, but is probably a little too easy. She would introduce an easy concept and then go on to explain for 10 or 15 minutes. She tells great stories, but at that hour in the morning I'd rather just get to the point. I probably would have enjoyed the class more if it wasn't so insanely early in the morning.

Easy enough class, and her stories were always entertaining.

Mama Linda!!!!

Mama Linda is one of the nicest professors I've ever had. While I understand why some people say the class doesn't require much thought it's not the case. She just has a different teaching style--teaching through story telling--rather than bland lecturing. She's fun, funny, and very willing to help.

She is by far the sweetest professor I've ever had. She will help you tremendously if you ask. She does ramble about off-topic things, a lot. BUT, some of the subjects she teaches are pretty boring and her stories help make them more bearable. As an advisor she's useless. She doesn't want to be one and it shows. Seek guidance elsewhere!!!

I LOVE MAMA LINDA! She's funny, the class is easy and interesting (if you're a Psych major, most of the material will come up in other classes). She has a sense of humor.

love her! she makes a boring class fun!

Take this class!! Love her!! You do have to study a little but its not bad!! Definitely take this course with mama linda!!

mama linda is the best! she makes it interesting and easy while still teaching all of the material.

Great class, learned a lot and it was fun to attend.

This is one of the best classes I have ever taken. To be honest, it is a pretty easy class, but that reflects Linda's personality. She's extremely kind, and genuinely wants all of her students to succeed. I did have to study a little for the tests. This class teaches you so many things that can help you out in your personal life. It is a must-take.

Excellent professor who truly cares about her students. I would recommend all psych majors take this class with her. She makes even the most mundane topics interesting.

Linda is an extremely wonderful, kind woman. She is very intelligent and her advanced education clearly shows. A great professor. I would recommend taking as many classes as you can with her.

Great professor lectures worthwhile

All around awesome teacher

Linda is an awesome professor. Her tests are not easy at the higher level, especially if you do not study. She is willing to work with you with any type of conflict. She is my favorite Psychology professor because she cares about her students and tries to make the material interesting - unlike a majority of the professors in the psych department.

Very entertaining, but frequently goes off topic. She doesn't sugar coat anything and gives you the information you need. Very relaxed class. Fairly easy (as long as you go to class and know the material). However, if you prefer a more straight-to-the-point teaching style, Yelland isn't for you.

If you go to class she will literally tell you questions that will be on the exam and what the answers are. If you go to class you'll pass. And if you're having a hard time during the test, if you go up and ask a question she'll basically give you the answer.
