Terrible professor. Very unorganized and somehow that reflects on the STUDENTS grades. The text book is our ONLY source allowed, she doesn't allow any outside research. Try writing 6 pages from 1 chapter. Also causes everyone in the discussions to say the same things, not a real "discussion" at all. Learned nothing.

I've taken multiple classes with Professor Haddad and have passed all of them. Yes, she is unorganized at times, but she knows her material well and strives to make sure her students do too. Tip: READ. Read the material before class and you will do fine. She seems strict, but she is very understanding and will work with you if you need help.

DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS. She is the worst professor and is honestly super rude. I am never one to go out of my way to write anything bad about anyone but this professor makes all her students feel like theyre insufficient because she lacks organization and she blames her students for not engaging. She is so judgemental and feels like nothing is good.

Honestly I think Haddad gets too much hate. Yes, she's unorganized and lecture can be dull and long. If you want to pass the class is READ THE TEXTBOOK, participation counts most of class time is discussion. Most of the tests/quizzes questions are from the textbook and the rest are from class.

My class was online due to it being a summer course. Her syllabus did not correlate with the assignments. We were supposed to have 7-10 days for written assignments and she would post them 3 days before their due date. I emailed her multiple times throughout the class with important questions and never received a response. Would not recommend!!

Haddads class is not very difficult on its own. Its only difficult when you need to talk to her. She is very rude and not helpful at all. She expects you to do it all on your own with no help from her. Directions and due dates are not always clear. She takes forever to grade the 4 written assignments and respond to emails. Don't recommend. Rude!!

Beware future students. This professor is terrible. These are the following reasons: She does not post the syllabus. There is no clear instructions. She is very disorganized because she does not post the assignments in a timely manner. The dates are dated for the previous semester. She does not respond to emails making it impossible to reach her.

This professor is not easy to get in contact with even when she states to reach her to emails only. She is very disorganized because she does not post the materials or quizzes on time. Her lectures are not helpful because she goes off topic. I eventually stopped listening to them and just read the textbook. I essentially taught myself and passed.

Teacher does not respond to emails. She was also a week late starting class, gave no syllabus for a week into class, and expected students to do 4 quizzes within one week of starting class. Just unprofessional and unapologetic.

Doesn't care abt student success. Unorganized. Lectures are very unproductive & confusing. Criticizes student opinions/ viewpoints. Grades very hard on trivial things. Tests & quizzes are designed to trick students, rather than assess comprehension of material. Doesn't follow syllabus. Never responds to emails. Criticizes students in front of class

Class was supposed to start on Monday, March 22. 1 assignment was posted and we didnt hear from her for over a week. The college couldnt reach her and we had to email another professor before she finally posted assignments. I missed an assignment and emailed to see if I could make up points. No response for over a week.

I will never forget the impression she made on me. I first took Theories of Personality, then Research Methods in Psychology (the 1st semester Hancock offered it). Does she expect you to read? Yes. I feel like community college students rate her poorly because they don't want to try. The classes were amazing. I am an empiricist because of her.
