Prof. Peller's class is very interesting and entertaining. He is also very friendly and funny. I took his SS-510 and SS-520 classes in the morning and I never noticed anyone falling asleep.

He is the best
Very nice person. He takes the time to explain things to you. His test are easy if you study. If you study his notes you will do fine in this course. No papers. That'a plus. And no essays thats another plus.
He's a great teacher. He is one of those teachers that actually make you not want to fall asleep in class. You can score very high in class but you have to study and read his notes. no papers no reports just 2 exmas and the final not bad right
This teacher is very nice and you will enjoy this course. You would have to take my word for it. Come on take it. If you don't like his class you can always drop it. But, "I KNOW THAT YOU WANT DO THAT". DID I TELL YOU THAT HE IS SO DAM HOT.
hes such a great teacher!
i Loved him i wish all my professors teachs like he does
Professor Peller is the best teacher that you could have. He makes the class very interesting, and very easy. Take it and you wont regret it!!!!
i think that he is the best teacher i have ever had. he makes the class very interesting and explains everything thoroughly. he is a very nice and funny guy. you wont regret taking his class.
Professor Peller is the best ever. You will not regret it. I PROMISE! He's easy and you learn thats all that matters right?
He's not actually the BEST professor but he does give notes which is definetely a BIG PLUS...BUT...I don't think all the answers come straight from his notes..it's not THAT EASY.
his notes aren't always clear. when he lectures, he speaks so fast you can't copy down everthing you say. for tests, he makes you study your notes plus the text
he is soo cute....coolest teacher
Cool, nice looking, easy going, prefers the male students !!!!!
one of the best teachers i ever had...very caring...explains everything thouroly and tests are easy if you study them...dont really have to buy the book..just studdy from the notes....hes funny and makes your day
EXCELLENT TEACHER! He makes sure to keep the class exciting. He does not assign homework. His tests are easy as long as you take descent notes and basically there is NO FINAL! I love this man.
peller rocks!!! the best professor ever. not too many notes, but read your text. he's very fair and will help you if needed. he's also funny and his class went by really fast.
he is the cutest thing ever....His class is interesting and fun and as long as you complete his three interesting easy essays and do okay on the final ur set. His class is the one i look forward to
Good teacher. Definitely likes guys!!! They get the best grades. Not married. Over 60. Hmmmm. Classes are cool.

great teacher!!!!!one of the best i've had.very,very funny teacher.makes class very interesting.enjoyed a lot.
He is a nice professor, entertaining, but his exams aren't as easy as people say. they are ok, not that hard. You definately have to take your own notes and study them.
very nice but a surprise when the exams come. that is not a good thing. i studied and read the book and got an A. but i honestly thought that anatomy and physiology was easier.
ONE OF THE BEST PROFESSORS EVER!I WISH THAT THEY WERE ALL LIKE HIM!
I LOVE HIM!!!! HE's SUPER NICE, BUT YOU HAVE TO STUDY FOR YOUR TESTS! HE GIVES GOOD NOTES AND HE'S SOO HELPFUL... HE'S SOO FUNNY TOO... I THINK HE'S THE BEST PROFESSOR I'VE HAD YET!! I'M TAKING HIM AGAIN FOR SS-520! =)
GREAT TEACHER!! TAKE HIM FOR THE WRITTING INTENSIVE COURSE CUZ HE ONLY ASSIGNS 2 PAPERS AND 1 IS ON YOURSELF. 3 EXAMS, HARD IF U DINT STUDY BUT HE GIVES U ALL THE NOTES YOU NEED. YOU WONT FALL ASLEEP...HE'S SWEET AND FUNNY :)
He is just too funny. You will never have a dull moment in his class. But pay attention to everything he says and take good notes. I never really read the text book, but I took good notes and studied them and got an A.
whatever
He seemed so relaxed + very chill when classes first begin, quite witty & lenient but his exams, especially the FIRST one was a HUGE shock. The highest grade during Fall 06 for the first exam in my class was an 82; the lowest being a 28. Everything on his exam is extracted from the text, he doesnt even reword it! Crappy professor! DON'T take him!
No Comments
HORRIBLE PROFESSOR. gives the impression of a nice, relaxed, lenient and easy guy but he teaches very little, and doesn't use the text, except that when exams come around, all his questions come DIRECTLY from the textbook, word for word! I have some useful information if you're taking his class, message me!
He seems nice, but his exams are not easy, touch grader, It doens't matter you made improvement or not. no extra points, no extra credit, no other way to raise up your grade, no curve , just nothing, so if you did bad on your first exam then you are screwed all the way though, no chance !!!,The cumulative final is not really helping at all.
worst professor ever,very funny but care nothing about his students. first exam was so hard not to mention the accumalative final,give no extra credit don't care if u fail or pass. he needs to go.
He talks all the garbage in the class & make you think his class is so relaxing , then pull some tiny things he mentioned in the class as exam questions. Give bad grades, and will not help u to improve your grade or what so ever. Don’t take the final cumulative exam, it is totally wasting time
Please stay away from this guy,his is a fake, appears to be nice, but his not. his exams are not form his notes, they are tricky,a lot of critical thinking requires for his exams. For the fall , the first exam 85%of the class fail,the worst part about it he did not care. Peller will mess up your GPA.
STAY AWAY''''''
I don't know why anyone would give him a bad rating unless THEY didn't want to apply themselves and learn -- he's a GREAT professor. QCC is very fortunate to have him teaching here. His lectures were crystal clear. Tests are straight from the notes and the text. Enjoyed his class immensely!!!!
very down to earth teacher.also,very easygoing as long as you respect him.If he taught another class that i was required to take,i would pick him over any professor.Tests are 90% mult choice and 10% essay
Peller is a great Professor! He even writes notes on the blackboard for you. I can't understand the negative feedback - tests are supposed to be tricky - know the material - think critically - and you will pass. I found him laugh out loud funny - and extremely helpful. He even helped me with other classes I had taken - and NO, I am not a boy!

He rocks!! He is the best! I had him during the summer so he was chill!
hes very mean. Knows is area but is very wear...I passed his class but he is so so waer. He see you like you are a bad person all the time and make bad jokes
he is the bomb diggity. lol jk hes a really good teacher you will love him
Prof. Peller is a great guy. He makes you laugh, he is very helpful and basically write the notes for you! What's the negativity?
HE IS THE BEST!! IF UR A PSYCHOLOGY MAJOR TAKE HIM!! HE MAKES YOU LOVE PSYCHOLOGY EVEN MORE!! HIS TEST ARE STRAIGHT FROM HIS NOTES AND SOMEWHAT FROM THE TEXTBOOK. BUT SERIOUSLY JUST STUDY HARD AND YOU WILL DO FINE. NEVER GIVES HW UNLESS UR IN A WRITTING INTENSIVE CLASS BUT EVEN THAT ITS NOT THAT MUCH..HES THE BEST!! IF I COULD I WOULD TAKE HIM AGAI
The only real downside to taking him which is sad is he does his grading STRICTLY on the 3 tests. No extra credit, no homework, attendance no. he'll give you 2-3 extra point on your final grade as a disturbition depending on how the class did on the tests so if u mess up on one test like u get a 30 your done..mine as well drop out of the class
he is one of the best teachers i ever had!!!! he makes the class very easy and a fun class. love his jokes and stories. i would take him agiain if i could
Good teacher although he does seem to get of the subject quite often. All 3 exams, multiple choice, are based on his notes. His tests aren't easy. If you are looking to get an A, you better make sure you know the material. My advice, STUDY!!!1
Very nice, interacts with class during lectures. Has good and funny anectedotes but as others have said, he does stray off topic. Tests from lecture so good note taking is a must.
At first I thought he was a cool professor but i honestly regret taking his class...ur grade is only based upon the 3 exams he gives. Nothing else and if you're absent, you're on your own. All the exam are based upon the notes in class, so u better take good notes or else you'll fail...BIG TIME
he is such a sweet and caring professor, easy tests, easy A if you do all the work and make sure you do all writing intensive
BORING. bad joker, and just real drag of a class. Not so in the beginning. but it gets there. Tests are pretty hard, but the reading is the thing that kills you. If not interested, dont take this class. Esp as an elective.
Are you kidding me he is the BEST!!! he is so much more better then that rude heffa Deleri Springer. All you have to do is just listen to him and what ever you dont understand in class just refer to the book .To make thing even better he even gives out study guides so you know what to study for.
sometimes understanding and sometimes not
VERY COOL PROF. KEEPS YOU AWAKE IN CLASS!! EXAMS ARE STRAIGHT FROM LECTURES IF YOU STUDY AND PARTICIPATE YOULL DEF. PASS!
pay CLOSE attention in class... STUDY lecture notes...tests are somewhat tricky
I LOVE THIS GUY. He is extremely hilarious, I smile just from seeing him walk in the class. There is no such thing as a stupid question in his class. He treats every single student with respect. He's clear but you need to stay attentive and apply his material in order to get it to stick. He only gives four tests though, and grade is avg of the four
He is extremely boring. Only bases his exams on the notes he gives and sometimes they're not clear. I literally have learning nothing all semester. What a waste. Don't recommend.
Fair & nice professor, gives out review sheet beforehand. Tests can be tricky, so make sure you read carefully!
Very nice professor. Easy going and very clear. Makes the class as interesting as it can be.
Best professor ever! He is so caring, and makes the class so interesting! He is truly wonderful. He gives a review sheet before the exam, study his notes and that sheet and you will do great! Book is not needed, but make sure you study his notes! I learned so much from him and it turned out to be my favorite class! Wish I could take him again!
This professor is great to work with. I must caution you that there is no extra credit nor make-ups for exams. He is willing to help anytime, so if you do get him, take the full advantage! He's a traditional, yet classical lecturer.
You should take him class.Very funny,not boring. Attendance is not required.
He doesn't give many exams, only 3. There all easy. The exams are based on everything you cover in class. He is really funny. Your first impression of him when you walk in is that he's strict when he's actually not, he is really cool.
Very sweet and knowledgeable. It shows that he loves what he teaches. I wish he taught other courses.. Made it easy for us to understand the material. Really goes above and beyond with his explanations. Take good notes and you'll pass. I'll miss his class.
He's great. Four tests multiple choice. Study your notes no need for the textbook unless you're planing to skip class. He writes on the board 90% of it you need for your notes he tries to keep you Entertained. If the class tells him a question on test was confusing & why he will give points to everyone to add on their test grade. Taking him for 220
he is nice professor ,easy to pass the class
He is very nice professor. The explanation of class is good and clear, but the exam is very tricky. It cause my grade to be very low. By the way, the exam only multiple choice. Easy Class, Hard Exam.
AMAZING professor. Best I've had. Not only are his lectures amazing and interesting but he also tries to keep you as entertained as possible. Tests are fair if you study the notes he gives you you'll be fine. His review sheets are golden anything he will ask you on his test is on the review. BEST professor.
He 's class is funny, but like other people say the test are tricky and tough. It's hard to get a good grade. There is no assignments during semester, only 4 exam.
If you love to laugh, take his class. He's hilarious. On top of that, he cares about his students. I'll never forget on the last day of class, he almost cried because he said he'll miss us. He's got such a loving nature to him, he's truly a blessing.
I love this professor. He explains everything. The exams are tricky but if you have all the notes and the study sheets he gives, you will be good. He makes the class fun. If he were teaching any other Psych class I would definitely take him again. One of the best professors at Queensborough.
his multiple choice exams are tricky and are not according to book questions are tricky only gives 3 exams no extra credit his notes are not clear either..
Gives 3 exams and review sheets, but questions are tricky and no extra credited. So if u messed up on your exam. That is it for u
I love this class! He is an amazing professor, funny, respectful, easy to understand. I recommend him 100%. The only downside is some of the questions in his test are worded weird. But if you study and use the notes he gives out in class you will pass! It's impossible to fail unless you have no interest in the subject or you skipped class.
He's a nice man but exams were somewhat tricky.
He is one of the best professors in QCC for my opinion. He is fair grader. You don't need to buy textbook. Just study his notes that's ok. The tests are not super easy, but they are also not super difficult or tricky tests. So, if you study based on his notes and what he says during class, you can easily get high grade.
He's a great professor. He teaches what HE believes is essential to Developmental Psych. He makes the class enjoyable by giving anecdotes that are related to the topic being taught. His tests are extremely easy; he usually gives a review sheet. Dr. Peller is really passionate about what he does. Do your work, and you'll get an A for sure.
Prof is very sweet and caring. He's also corny and enjoys talking with his students. His exams are a bit tricky so always study from your notes aside from the review sheet he provides!
He is very kind, however he only grades you 3 multiple choice exams (50 questions) & the final; NO extra credit or homework. Doesn't give a review sheet, you must study all your notes for each exam; there are way too many things to remember & exams are difficult because questions are worded differently. Take another professor if you can.
He does tend to go off on a tangent. He also speaks very very low, so you have to listen. Corny but tolerable corny. No homeworks, which is good and bad. Meaning the exams and attendance are a major factor. He writes everything on the dry erase board which makes copying notes easier.
All i can say is take him if you can. He is a great professor, very sweet and pretty easy. Yeah his lectures may sometimes get boring, there are no hws and only 3 test, in which he gives you a review sheet for all of them. All the bad reviews are probably from people who didn't even try to look over the review sheets. Trust me, super easy!
He is a great professor
Is honestly one of the sweetest and nicest teachers ive had. he means well and always tries to keep the class engaged by making corny jokes or making you laugh in some way. its a very straight forward class almost 95% of the tests are lecture based you don't really need the textbook. great teacher, great class. highly recommend
He is a very nice guy. Test are okay
Professor Peller was amazing! HIs jokes are always on point, but most importantly, he always makes sure you understand what he's lecturing. When it comes to exams, if you don't read your NOTES, you won't get a high grade. HIs review sheets are straight to the point, but make sure to take good notes in class. YOU WON'T REGRET IT!
He has no HW, he's funny and such a great professor, don't be shy to ask any concerns, only grades on Tests and its all multiple-choice. Such a great psych professor!
Sweet professor but only gives 3 exams, no homework and no essays so you really have to make sure to do well on the exams. if you don't like corny jokes then this isn't the professor for you because he makes a lot of them.
Great professor, cares about students. Grades on 3 exams, so if you're not a good test taker than this class is not for you.
