Dr. Pezzo is very bright and is down right hilarious when it comes to his lectures. You will want to pay attention and take notes as things will pop on the test from them.

Very straightforward w/ what he expects from the class, and gives helpful studying techniques. Very clear w/ the material and gives flowing analogies. Students complaining about him talking about his life probably feel envious he is happy in all aspects.

Dr. Pezzo rules. Go to the lectures; pay attention; write notes = doing great on tests. This is college - that's how it works. He isn't that difficult. Quit crying. Oh and the guy is an absolute riot but might offend you if your an uptight conservative.

this guy is pretty good. tests are pretty hard, but he is straightforward with what he expects from you. memorize the chapters (really) and pay attn. to his examples in class. good curves on exams. i would take him again, i learned a lot. he's a bit wrapped up in his life, but he is a good teac

Honestly, Dr. Pezzo is a wonderful teacher. Incredibly HOT, funny, and an awesome teacher. I always love to see teachers that have a passion for what they do. His class is not really easy, you do have to study and go to class... I would reccomend him to anyone!

Dr. Pezzo brings a ton of enthusiasm to the classroom. He really makes you think outside of the box. I could only take one other course with this because it is so time consuming. Really tough tests, but made the course amusing!! I recommend. He doesn't obsess about family either!

Dr. Pezzo is a great professor. He makes the class lectures so interesting that the class is over before you know it. The tests may be a bit difficult but he always prepares you for it.

I liked him alot. Made class exciting and intreasting. He is a hard teacher, you have to go to class and study!

Dr. Pezzo is great. He's really funny. I don't know what people are talking about when people say his tests are hard. The tests are incredibly straight forward and not tricky at all. Just read the book. The classes aren't even very necessary to get an A.

Dr. Pezzo is an awsome teacher. He is so animated and extremely funny. This has to be the best psychology teacher that I have ever had. His test are a little difficult, however, hes a really easy going teacher and is usually willing to help you out as much as he can. I would deffinately recommend him as a teacher to anyone who is interested.

Very helpful and easy on the eyes

people are crazy for saying bad things about this class. its a hard class in general but dr pezzo did a great job teaching it and really cared how students were doing. definitely the best professor i've ever had.

Great teacher! Taught in unconventional manner, but great learning experience! The articles covered empirical evidence that anyone can learn from! Alot of articles. The tests and quizzes really examine your understanding of studies evaluated. Great overall professor!

I think he is a great professor overall. He is very willing to help. Very enthusiastic during class, makes class more interesting. Tests are a bit difficult, but if you can understand the material it is not that bad. I would definitely take him again and reccommend him to anyone.

Best prof at USF. The class is difficult, but if you apply yourself and really try at every assignment and exam- you can do well. He is hilarious and down to earth. Really cares about his students and how well you do. The class actually made me interested in research!

This class is pretty tough material. Dr. Pezzo makes it the best that it can be, and will bend over backwards to help you. Do not complain if you will not even go to him and ask for help/clarification. I have already signed up for his Social Psych class. He has to be cool, he is in a band. :) Seriously. Great professor with some humor involved.

Great professor. He is very interested in making sure students perform well in the class and (whether you want it or not) will give advice pertaining to outside of the class as well. Class is a little difficult, but know the book inside and out and you'll get an A.

Dr. Pezzo is definitely an interesting professor. He has a lot to talk about and he knows his stuff when it comes to psychology. He sometimes seems disorganized, especially when it comes to his power points. The material seems super easy, but somehow he makes his exams challenging. Reading the text will most likely get you an A.

freekin awesome teacher. really makes material interesting. study guides help alot and if you read the book b4 each exam you will keep at least a B in the class

He is a hard professor and can be a little tough. But he does try and help.

Definitely knows his stuff and makes learning the info fun, but the tests are pretty hard and the only grades in the class. He is helpful and makes himself available to his students. I took research methods with him as well and found that class easier. Expect to go to all the classes and study hard for the tests.

He is a great professor. He has a TA that makes all the tests and quizes so they are very easy. Just read the book and do the homework, and you will have no problem pasing the tests.Even though it is a statistics class, there are not very many math questions on the tests or quizzes.

he is unorganized- like Lieutenant Columbo or Inspector Clouseau, do not let this fool you.You are in college now- you are responsible to know the material - he is just a facilitator with a warped sense of humor. If you do what he says you will learn and earn a good grade.

A very fun professor, very lively, kept lectures interesting. You DO have to work for your grade, though. Lots of independent studying. But as long as you study you should be fine!!

Pretty awesome professor. Study and read for the exams and you'll do fine.

Absolutely love this man! You do have to work in his class, but he will help you if you need him. I think he is my favorite Psych professor at USFSP

This class was super straight-forward: Read. The. Book. Dr. Pezzo makes that clear in the beginning, and he means it. We just had 4 tests that came straight from the chapters. I love SOP, so it was really easy for me, but I bet anyone would enjoy this class.

I really enjoyed his lectures. He's hot and entertaining!Final grades are based solely on average of test grades, and he drops the lowest score at the end, which helps.Not a bad class to take, as long as you read the chapters and attend class. I recommend him as a professor, and I recommend the class.

Dr.Pezzo is an awesome teacher he is entertaining and very helpful. His class isn't easy but it is very straight forward and him and his TA are there to help! I took his Psy stats class and I recommend studying vocab!

Took this class previously with a different professor and it was terrible. Took it online with Pezzo and he was so incredibly helpful. Before each exam he did an online study session which was awesome. The only days mandatory were the test days and the first day for attendance. The exams werent bad as long as you actually study.

Awesome professor. The first exam gives you insight on how the rest will be. Not easy! Make sure you understand all the material and DO THE PRACTICE HOMEWORK AND HOMEWORK. Most, if not all, questions on the exam comes directly from this!!! Do extra credit! Sometimes takes a while to get back to you.

Dr. Pezzo is a great teacher to take for Research Methods! He shows interest and excitement on the topics and provides more than enough help if you have a question. This class is a lot of work, but if you keep up with the homework it is easy!

Dr. Pezzo is such a trip. He is witty and engaging, and he explains the material well. Dr. Pezzo goes out of his way to make to content relevant and meaningful, and he really cares about his students. If you need help or are confused - ask. Do not rely solely on the PPT lectures. Actively read the text and take notes, and you'll be golden. :)

Took a hybrid course over the summer which I was super worried about, but surprisingly it wasn't bad! If you keep up weekly with the learning you'll be fine. And the review conferences are a MUST. But he made it interesting and comprehensible.

I did not get an A in the class but I definitely learned a lot.

I've had him for three different classes at USF(sop4004,psy3213,3204) and he is awesome! He makes class fun and actually knows how to keep you interested. He is always helpful if you don't understand things and willing to give extra help outside of class. He can be a little unorganized and get off topic but I definitely reccomend him for any class.

He really seems to be a great guy. I have him this semester, and he goes above and beyond to help his students succeed. He's also really entertaining and easy on the eyes;-) lol I had a mixed class, mostly online, but exams were taken in class. Psychological statistics can be a tough subject, but it's just study and practice.

I took PSY 3204 online with the exams taken in class. I am horrible when it comes to math but with studying and practice, passing this class is possible! Graded homework due almost every week but there is plenty of ungraded practice first and 5 Exams, the last being a cumulative and he drops the lowest. The TA, Adryona, was also VERY helpful!

Best prof I've had at USFSP. Hated taking psych stats online, but he was always accessible in his office for help. FUNNY! Makes dry stats interesting. Live online video study sessions before exams are the best! Scatterbrained & you'll have to remind him to do/post things. Great personality & cares. Go see his band (Google it) outside of USFSP.

Great professor. Stats might seem intimidating but he posts videos and explains the chapter very clearly. He makes the class better with his family stories and jokes. Exams are based on his lectures. I would take him again.

Dr. Pezzo is a great professor. I took psy stats online with him. I was really nervous about passing this class. He dropped the lowest test, couple homeworks, and SPSS. There was extra credit during one of the test (super easy). We used Mind Tap program to take all the weekly homework. Mind Tap and Dr. Pezzo has videos that teach every section.

For a class that no one actually wants to take, it was good with this professor. Prof. Pezzo was extremely easy to follow and he was always available for help. there was a lot of work every week and it was easy to fall behind but he drops a lot of low grades which makes it easy to end with a good grade.i would highly recommend this class with him

This is by far the best class I have taken besides Motivational Psych. Mr Pezzo will drop your lowest scores and theres no way to fail. If you do no homework and just bs the class you will fail. I hate math and I did good in this class. Trust me take this class online and do your homework. Practice Exams are just like the exam.

Very straightforward class, 10 homeworks (4 dropped), 5 exams (2 dropped), and 4 SPSS assignments (1 dropped), the homework is time consuming but you learn the material for the exam. I dont like statistics or math but this class was not too bad, read the textbook and make notes.

Most of your grade are tests and attendance. There are also 3 writing assignments that are just 2 paragraphs as well. The tests were hit or miss but they got better as the semester went along. Dr. Pezzo is a great lecturer and I found the class to be extremely interesting. I hope he adds more assignments instead of exams however.

Dr. Pezzo's class on Social Psychology is like no other class you have taken before. The class is great because the lectures are very engaging and Dr. Pezzo makes you think outside the box. The class is also tough because his exams are not easy. His exams make you apply topics learned. He did curve the exams to help accommodate. Not an easy A

He is very responsive, gets back to you quickly. DO start homework early in the week.

Overall, this class was not too difficult, but there is a lot of homework due at the end of each week and it is not posted on Canvas, so beware of that. The lowest homework and exam grades will also be dropped, and the final grade is heavily curved. Prof Pezzo's online videos are pretty helpful, but you have to look some things up in the textbook.

If you don't attend class you will not pass. He says you need to memorize everything for the tests and while that information is a lot, he drops one test grade. Professor Pezzo is funny and makes a lot of jokes, comments, etc. about what he is teaching.

Homework can be challenging, but he/teaching assistants were always super responsive and helpful. Drops lowest exam and homework grade.

Pezzo is truly an AMAZING professor. he's actually really funny & makes lecture fun through engagement. I genuinely believe that he cares about his students and how they're doing in and outside of his class. if you're struggling with his class TALK to him he's very understanding and will help you out. exams r rough bc u HAVE to memorize everything

AMAZING! So funny and relatable and keeps you engaged. Doesnt accept slack from his students but really encourages you to do your best. Tests are easy as long as you study, which he tells you what major points are on the test. Only con is that the 4 exams are the ONLY grades given in the class. So really pay attention and attend class! 10/10!!!

Funny while lecturing but sometimes stays on one topic for too long. It is a somewhat hard course if you don't study because you have to memorize the PowerPoints word for word because the tests are word for word the PowerPoints. Make sure that you really study for the exams because those are the only grades in the class. Overall a good professor

Dr. Pezzo was the BEST profesor I've had so far. He is very funny in lectures & cares a lot about his students & really try's to help them understand the information. His class is the only class I look forward to The tests are pretty much the only grades and are right from the powerpoint. I would 100% take another one of his classes.

I can tell he really cares about this subject and wants us Psych majors so succeed in the future. The information itself was fairly easy to grasp and the lectures and textbook guides were the most helpful material for exams. While the exams were mainly the only grades in the class, he made sure to cover all the material that would be on the tests.

Dr. Pezzo is a great professor that really cares about his students. I learned more about psychology and research from him than in my research methods class. The content is very interesting although you need to memorize it and truly understand it. You will not be able to pass this class if you don't put in the work in study.

The course featured outstanding lectures, but success hinged significantly on memorization, making it less advisable for individuals with weaker memory or exam performance. Despite this, the professor delivered engaging and detailed lectures.

He's so entertaining, funny and memorable. Heavily stresses you memorize the PowerPoints/lectures/studies- if you can do that you'll do well on his exams. Keep in mind he only grades exams and lecture outlines you write with an occasional assignment tossed in so do well on exams. Would take him again, mess with him, joke and have fun!

By far the best professor I have had. Yes, you have to memorize. No, it is not hard to do. I used Quizlet to make flashcards and do practice tests and the lowest exam grade I had was a 89. Do NOT let the exam-heavy aspect of this class scare you!!! Take Dr. Pezzo's advice when it comes to studying and I promise you will not be disappointed.

Very entertaining class

Dr. Pezzo was hilarious. There aren't many assignments except turning it outlines of your notes before the exam. There were 5 exams and two were dropped. There were interesting discussions during every lecture. He didn't take attendance but you'd want to be there. The textbook is assigned but you could get away with not reading it. Take this class!

My favorite professor I've ever had. Got along super great and was always available after class to answer questions. Just be ready to read the textbook. Both the TA and professor stress as much as possible to read the textbook, or else you will struggle. It also helps DRASTICALLY to know how to take notes. But superb class; 10/10 would take again
