This is one of the most straight forward teachers I have ever met! She has a great sense of humor and takes the time to explain something if you don't understand. If she writes it on the board, it's on the test. She also gives out a study guide for text book reading. Highly recommended!!!

She's very funny and I would really recommend you to her because she teaches very well and you will learn a lot from her. Just go to class everyday and take notes and read the book if you want to go over the class. One of the best teacher..

She is great. Very honest and open and to the point. I took this class before and my other teacher sucked.Louie knows what she is talking about. Listen to the lectures and take notes oh don't forget to read the material

Margaret it friggin hilarious. She's a tough teacher, but a lot of fun. She can sometimes be a little scattered so it's important to listen closely and ask a lot of questions if something's unclear or seems confusing. She's serious about attendance, so show up. Highly recommended.

she's not hot. but she's a great teacher. all you got to do in class is pay attention to her lectures and take notes. that's what the test is on. her lectures are straight from the book... i didn't read, but i still got an A. make sure you go to class everyday.. she takes attendence! great teacher! scantron + short essay tests.

Willing to work with you, lots of extra credit opportunites. Stickler for attendance. Very clear tests as longs as you took notes and read the book. Sense of humor, didn't like her at first, but warmed up as the class went on.

I remember she often uses her son as an example in this class back then and hearing stories from her own experiences. She made the class interesting.

She's the best. Very approachable. I never read the book for the class, but I didn't have to. Her lectures are very thorough and as long as you take good notes, it's an easy A.

A fairly easy A. Just go to class (she grades on attendance), study the notes, and take the tests that are based on the notes, NOT the textbook. She often goes off on fun tangents, making her unable to cover everything that needs to be covered (but you won't be tested on anything she doesn't get to).

One of my fav. teachers ever. She's so funny, that you'll actually look forward to coming to class.

She's nice and helpful outside of class. Great teacher and like everybody says she has a great sense of humor.

She does have a great sense of humor. Very funny at times when she is setting an examples for the lessons. I didn't read the book so i regret buying it because she usually explain the chapter where you can understand it instead of reading the book where it doesn't make any sense. Just be on time because she marks ppl who are late!

she's a really good teacher funny and outgoing you'll really like her

Dr. Louie is off the hook. I like because she has a great personality and she is very witty and funny. Here lectures are very interesting and easy to understand. She always adds a few funny answers on her exams.you'll love her I know I did.

She made this class very interesting! Very good sense of humor and good teaching style...I've learned a lot about psychology...One thing is you have to go to class every time, she grades on attendance too but you will definitely learn a lot!

This class is super easy. All test are multiple choice. One 2 page essay worth way less than attendance. She is pretty lazy, disorganized, and forgetful about material. She reminds me of a bad comedian who uses profanity a lot b/c they think it makes them funnier when the jokes have no substance. She is nice though. Take this class if you want an A

Sense of humor.. but pretty hard essays and test. I think you have to be interested in psychology in order to pass the class

Ms. Louie is a good professor. She speaks really soft, but when shes excited she yells really loud. overall, she is funny and a good teacher. you will learn lot!

Easy A... if you go to class! I missed about 8 classes (lol) but I got A's on 3 of the four test and a C on the first. I aced her essays but attendance is what got me. She tries to be funny. Just go to class. You actually learn from her. Test= lecture notes..review the chapters b4 the test

A great teacher. She has a great sense of humor and kept the class laughing each day. Don't wast $$$ on book. Come to class, take notes, a lot of extra credit available.

She is the most DIFFICULT teacher I have ever had. More than 70 long questions plus short answers on the exams. The exams are very hard and not about terminology, but theories/applications. Very difficult A and the average grade in my class is C- with many D, F. She is knowledgable. I am a A student and work hard, but still can't pass her class.

Took this class for GE so this review could be bias. I got a C in the class without using the book at all, I missed 8 classes total (4 max allowed). She lets you do community service if you missed to many classes. Tests are semi-hard (I got an average of 65% on the tests w/o using a book) but if you read you're fine. She's a great teacher.

she is such a great teacher. Her PSY1 class is the most interesting class I've take in CCSF. Her lecture is easy to understand. I'm an ESL student but i didn't have a hard time to understand the lecture. As long as you take notes and do the reading assignment, you can get an A.

yes yes, she is funny and gives out interesting lectures. If you want to take this class, attendance is a MUST or else you'll end up failing. Her lectures are really fast. A lot of info. to remember, trust. Understand her lectures or you might end up failing the exams. She's funny, yet she's difficult, really fast paced lectures and sees her stu

ms. louie is a super good teacher she is very informative and uses good examples so you understand things better. she is also really funny. however if you are not a psych major then you might find some of the material difficult. otherwise, it is an interesting class but be prepared to really think and gather new information. love ms louie take her

Dr Louie is a must take at CCSF! She is very helpful, funny, and knowledgable. The class was very interesting and she prepares the class in such a great way in which you will not be bored. Her grading is I think very fair and the great part about this class is you will be learning useful info and have fun while doing so. I highly recommend Dr.Louie

Mrs. Louie is an outstanding teacher! If your planning on taking psych and your looking for a teacher that is fair, good sense of humor and challenges you for the better than take this teacher! If you take the time to have one on one time with her the odds are that she never sees any of her students as numbers! She outstanding! Take her :)

She was the reason why I changed my major from Business to Psychology. She's super nice and down to earth. Take her class, show up, study and you will pass.

Great teacher. Funny. Interesting. Fair.

She's grading fair. It's not a easy class if you want to get an easy A or B. You really have to work hard for it.

She's real cool. Her tests are mostly from her lecture but you still have to read the book because she doesn't always cover everything in lecture. One paper to do with no page limit but she is a tough grader on it so you really have to put some effort, but she does let you re-write it. Highly recommend!

SHE'S GREAT!!! I TOTALLY RECOMMEND THIS TEACHER!!! SHE'S THE BEST AND I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING!!! PSYCHOLOGY WASN'T MY DREAM AND SH JUST MADE IT A WHOLE LOT BETTER!!!

You'll have to work for an A but it's definitely possible. Take good notes and show up to most of her classes and you'll do fine. Sometimes softspoken. Recommended for people that are majoring in Psyc as well as people needing to take just a GE course.

I took her class on S2006. A nice teacher with a great personality and sense of humor, although I dont find her sex jokes are funny. A Straight forward lectures. If you take a good note, you don't need to buy the textbook (like me, who wants to save money!) bcs her test are mostly taken fr the lectures.

This teacher does a little too much! makes class very complicated. Gives you 5 mid-terms and i'm not making that up plus a 8 pages term paper. Don't take her!!!!!!!

Amazing teacher! She makes lectures interesting through her sense of humor and extensive knowledge of the subject. Attendance is key ( graded) as long as you pay attention and take notes you will be fine. Her tests are thorough on the information she lectures but if you pay attention it's a breeze :)

Amazing teacher. Lectures were straight out of the book and handed out study guides outling EXACTLY what was going to be on the test. Study what's on those and you'll be totally prepared for the test. You will need the book to fill in small gaps from her lectures but you can do that in the library. Highly recommend.

Funny! Nice, goes to lengths to be available to her students, and makes class so interesting that I hate to leave for the restroom. She packs tons of info into lecture, but not in a difficult, incomprehensible way. If you read the sections listed in her study guides and skim your notes, you'll ace her exams. I'd take her again for another class.

I love professor Louie! her lectures are simple, easy and understandable. She always use funny examples and contemporary too! Attendance is mandatory as it counts a LOT for your final score. Although strict at first, once you get to know her she is really nice!!

Awesome teacher! She is funny, cool, and very approachable. She gives an outline/study guide for each test. Just pay attention to her lectures, take notes, and if you know those sections/questions on the sheet, you're good to go. I was on the borderline of A and B the whole time but ended up with an A.

Excellent Professor!

LOVED Louie. Took the class 2 semesters ago and I want to sit in this semester just to hear her lectures again. Theories of Personality moves fast, and yet she really does a good job of giving you the basics of each theorist. You'll leave with a clear understanding of Freud. She's quiet and sweet, I'm gay and I had a crush on her. Exceptional.

She's very knowledgeable & incorporates lots of relevant examples/explainations. Does joke sometimes, but for tests, its all multiple choice. Be warned, lots of subtle differences in answers so it can be tricky. grade is mostly based on tests; i got 100% in all assignments and attendance, but was brought down a full grade b/c of the tests.

test was kind of tricky but shes a nice and good teacher give good examples so u understand fully.

she is hilarious, experienced and knowledgable. she makes the class interesting, and gives a study guide to prepare for exams. it tells you what ch. sections she takes the questions from, so as long as you study the section, you will ace tests. the only negative is she'll put questions from the book but did not lecture on, so book is essential!

She is amazing. She is a very knowledgeable woman. She gives examples that help learning the material a lot easier and fun. I suggest future students of hers to read the book. The lectures are helpful however; there are things in the book that she does not go over in class and requires you to know for the exam. READ THE BOOK!!!

Fun class. She acts out the stories to teach the material. She also uses various strategies so it's a new experience every day. Take notes in class and while you read then read those notes constantly. Tests require a detailed understanding of the material. For those, like me, who get claustrophobic, she doesn't allow leaving the class.

She is really good at this. You will learn so much but you have to study and read a lot. If you want to get a good grade you should study for test at least 2 weeks before it is given

absolutely the best professor in CCSF no matter what subject! I don't want miss even one of her lecture, she's fun, and enthusiastic about teaching,she's like an actress, gives every research and material by her show!she covers everything useful in EXAM,5 exams are MULTIPLE CHOICE!though critical thinking essay are hard,its only 30/300 pts.

This class was easy for me since I took psych before but I learned a lot more from her! She is really funny and nice. She seems really passionate about child development in psychology.

Very interesting in class and if you just sit through and pay attention during the lectures, you will get an B at the very least. Best part is there aren't any homework! Tests are almost common sense if you pay attention! Highly Recommend.

Ms. Louie is an AMAZING professor. I absolutely loved her class, it was really interesting and if you pay attention you will definitely get a good grade in this class. This has been my favorite class at city so far. Highly recommend

Professor Louie was so great! This class is definitely not an easy A, she expects a lot from you and your assignments but she's very clear about the the first day of class. She's very honest with her grading but she definitely prepares you for college level work. Highly recommend her and the course.

Oh Louie! I love her dearly! Like mostly everyone here I believe she is a great prof with so much knowledge...a compendium of amazing/relevant information. Not to mention her sarcasm fires my senses. Crushing hard for a year now! She's def not an easy prof but her passion will ignite yours. Focus! Have Study Groups regularly..this is so important!

Ms. Louie is awesommmee! I loved her class and learned so much, her stories make the class very interesting and she is highly approachable. Reading the book definitely helps in this class but if you pay attention in class and use ur brain/common sense on tests you will definitely pass. Highly recommend Ms.Louie for any class!

Margaret Louie is one of the most passionate and interesting instructors that I have ever encountered. Her love of psychology and her humor when it comes to teaching her students is absolutely awesome! This class is hard but at least she makes it fun! I am definitely a Professor Louie fan! I highly reccomend this course!

I loved taking her class! I always looked forward to going into class because her lectures were always interesting. She has an awesome personality and a funny sense of humor. Tests are straight forward and not hard if you go through your notes. A paper is required in the end about a child that you choose to observe. Loved her class!

Very inspiring. This was the first time a teacher has ever motivated me. She gives great examples for her lectures, which made me understand everything much more easily. Attendance is mandatory, but she makes the lectures so interesting and she's very energetic all the time. Extra credit opportunities as well.

I like Ms. Louie lectures, really interesting. I took it just for.. hm i dont know why:), but know i have clear vision of it. Love it! ps. dont miss classes, otherwise you wont pass.

The best professor i have ever had. a must take professor. She changed my life. she is hilarious, but also serious when needed. you have to work for it though. Recommend her A LOT!!! She is the best

I would recommend her class to everyone. She is a great prof, lectures are very interesting and full of good content. You will want to go to every class session because they are fun and engaging and do not require participation. You don't need the book too much, exams are mostly from lectures with occasionally 1-2 questions from the book. Love her!

The way she teaches shows how passionate she is in psychology. She's energetic, positive, helpful, fluent and very knowledgeable. She's ALWAYS smiling and happy to be in class, which makes you never want to miss her lectures. I literally have NOTHING negative to say about her! Be aware that she will drop you if you miss more than 6 classes though.

Dr. Louie didna great job teaching this specific course seeing as it was her first time. She was crystal clear and always willing to answer questions and go down the rabbit hole with some students inquiries and tangents when we had time. Very nice woman, great lecturer, and extremely funny. Her laugh is infectious.

She's simply wonderful. Her lifespan class is incredibly useful and comprehensible. She's always ready to help and answer questions (in and out of class). It's obvious she's an experienced psychotherapistprofessor and extremely knowledgable. Her teaching style is interactive, enthusiastic, and sometimes even hilarious. Textbook is crucial to pass.

I thoroughly enjoyed Louie's PSYCH1 class. Tests are tough but I have never had a teacher who gave better study guides. There are no surprises on exams because her study guides are so perfect. However, several solid hours of studying are required to pass each test. She is a funny professor and a gifted lecturer. She is inspirational. I loved her.

i highly recommend this class!! but lemme tell you friends. i barely touched the textbook and i still passed the tests because i took good notes, i never missed a day and i paid attention. the only time i used the textbook was for the essay exam... her lectures are never boring and she tells jokes!! 10/10 would take the class again

Loved taking Dr. Louie! She's got a great sense of humor, and she knows how to make lectures entertaining and exciting to listen to. Dr. Louie is very helpful if you have questions. I would definitely take Dr. Louie again.

I only had her for half the semester as my psych prof became the Dean. She was super nice and extremely helpful! She gave feedback which was extremely helpful in passing the course since it was online. She was an understandable grader. I had no problems contacting her with questions and she replied promptly.

I absolutely love Ms. Louie! Her lectures are so interesting and shes so funny! One of the best teachers in city college for sure! Her tests are challenging, but if you remember stuff from her lecture and book, you should be good. Shes super sweet and cares about her students. Ms. Louie is so great that Im taking her Child Psych class!

Louie is amazing and super funny in class. Her tests are very easy if you pay attention in class. She will base exams on class teachings for the most part so go to class. If you don't do well on her exams or papers she is super willing to meet and help you improve if you're willing to put in the effort. 10/10 would definitely recommend :)

Sweetest professor I've ever had. Very helpful in answering questions and explaining concepts you may not understand. A lot of lectures, so if you miss a class, you miss a lot of important details. 4 papers throughout the semester but she gives clear instructions and what is expected. Do the extra credit!! Will help your grade a lot!!!

I love her class! she makes you work for your grade and makes the content very memorable. She also makes time to help you outside of class, and through emails too (for those shy people (myself included)).

Excellent teacher and brings great depth + humor to lectures. Hard not to cry through child and adolescent class -- it's intense in what you learn about yourself & others. Theories is harder and the writing was really difficult but with her dedicated feedback I finally learned how to write the papers. She is very clear and very available and CARES.

Took her Psyc 1 class, pretty straight forward. Read the book, write the papers, study for the tests. She gives HW assignments really similar to the test and gives very engaging lectures (full of stories, inspiring, funny, etc.). The papers can be a little tough but not terrible; have someone peer-review your essay and you should be good.

Mrs Louie is an excellent teacher! And funny. I took her PSYC1 class, and I'm so happy I did. She does make you work for it but she is extremely clear about what she is looking for. If there's confusion, it's on your end! Study the textbook, follow her instructions, and you'll do well and learn a lot in the process. Take her class!
