She makes class so fun! She would always tell funny stories, and you could talk about ANYTHING in her class, she loved everybody in the class, and would always be nice to me, even when i didn't turn stuff in.
Mrs. Conti totally kicks @ss! She will be the funnest teacher you will have ever had.
Mrs. Conti was so much fun when I took her class! I loved her "conditioning" technique with the clicker and the little gems. She really was able to make psychology fun!
I love Ms. Conti! She's a disco queen and is fair to everyone.
Excellent instructor, she has you write alot but is fair and gives you the format she wants. Class participation goes along way.
What a great teacher. Funny, made the class exciting and enjoys what she does. She was a little on the weird side, but it fit well with the class and made everyone laugh.
Mrs. Conti is the greatest teacher in the world. She actually makes class so much fun, she should charge admission, plus I took her class two years ago, and still remember a lot.
she always makes sure her students are having fun, while having fun your learning and you dont even realize it.
kick @ss class!
This teacher was a firecracker!
I love this teacher and you will learn alot!!I always tell my friends to take her and especially my friends at work.
A little (ok, more than a little) on the crazy side, but she makes sure you learn the material and is very approachable if you need help. Just make sure you pay attention because she doesn't like repeating instructions (only material).
This teacher should stick to training animals, not humans. Even though she was very funny, she wound up verbally degrading students on occasion. I wouldnt expect this from a Psych teacher.
Lots of papers, but she is VERY FAIR. Pay attention and follow specific guidelines that are clearly explained and you'll get an easy A.
I didn't learn a thing, but I got an A and that is all that matters.

One of the coolest classes I took at JJC. Mrs. Conti is awesome. She made an otherwise boring class lots of fun.
THE BEST PROFESSOR AROUND!
THE BEST PROFESSOR OF ALL TIME.
I really like the way she teach.
One of my favourite professors I've had. She's EXTEREMELY enthusiastic about what she teaches and her peppiness will definitely wake you up in the morning. She's very kind and compassionate towards her students. I HIGHLY reccommend her.
Best psych teacher I have ever had!
greatest teacher i ever had at JJC.... and will always be my favorite teacher
She's very easy yes, but if you like to actually learn about what you're reading then definitly do not take this class. If you are majoring in, or even thinking about majoring in Psychology do not take this class.
Best psych teacher ever! She is wonderful, and obviously loves what she does! She is deffinetly great at her job!
I agree, if you are a psychology major, do not take her...there is no structure to the course and so far I have learned nothing. I am a psych major and will take this class again next semester with a different instructor.
If you're expecting her to spoon feed you the information, then you probably don't want to take her. You get back as much as you put in. If you read the chapter before her lectures, then you will understand what she is talking about. There are no tricks to her tests, but you must be a critical reader or you will miss the information.
Reading and understanding the book is a must, because she doesn't lecture. All you do in class is discuss the stuff (student participation), group work, or watch old boring videos. Test taken on Blackboard. Study guides provided, test questions come from them. Grades papers easily and fair. A bit loud and maybe strange at times, but overall nice.
Mrs. C is the best!! She is verry easy.. just be nice too her and she will be the best to u! awesome! however, she doesnt spoon feed.. no lecture outlines etc.. but her tests are open book take home (online,etc).. even the midterm was an openbook,take home,online sorta thing. take her!
MRS. CONNIE WALKS AROUND WITH A POT OF COFFEE AND LECTURES, BUT IN THE LECTURE THIS WOMAN IS ON FIRE. I LEARNED SO MUCH I GOT A B GRADE. SHE IS SO HELPFUL. I LOVE THE FINAL PROJECT.
Oh my god this teacher is the bomb! she is so nice, but I learned so much from her. I want to major in psychology now because of her.
she gives too much work for a 3 credit course
Her lectures are high energy, and she is funny and a really nice person. Her tests are open book, and do at home on the web. Her lectures don't relate very well to the tests, but they are interesting. You will never be bored in her class. She does seem to be pretty slow on the grading. Overall, a good teacher.
This lady is very strange. She tries to train the class with a dog clicker whenever someone answers right. Whenever someone would come in late she would try to embarrass them. I did not like her at all. She has a few favorites in the class, and she is mostly b*tchy towards everyone else. And she is definately not hot, she's like 50.
Mrs. Conti totally rocks!! She is fun, interesting and full of energy! It doesn't hurt that she's really easy, too! It was so refreshing to *not* have a boring, weird, self-important psch professor!! I highly recommend her! Her class will be the highlight of your semester!
I disagree with some of the coments. This teacher truely loves what she does, and is hot for her age!! Back off! She is self confident in herself, and her teaching style. She likes anyone who gives half a chance and does the work and shows up for class. Slackers is what she dislikes. She is extremely clear in all expectations! Loved her!!
SUCH A JOY!!!!! I enjoy going to class.
she isn't a terrible person by any stretch of the imagination, but i just didn't like her teaching style. if i didn't have previous knowledge of psychology i'd probably be lost in her class.
She is amazing.
If you like psychology and want to really learn it, take a different prof. If you want to discuss ideas and parts of psychology, take Conti. She is energetic, knows her stuff, and is fun. But the class is unstructured, and with all the psych classes I have taken, I learned the least here. She has favorite students but overall is nice to everyone.
Mrs. Conti is totally awesome! If you're looking to learn A LOT, then don't take her, but if you're looking a fun energetic teacher that has a lot to say then take her! She is SOOO funny! You have to read the text to know the stuff, cuz she doesn't give notes but she's so worth it!!! I loved every minute of this class! She's GREAT!
Pretty cool teacher. She makes learning the info exciting and fun. One of the most motivational professors that I've ever had.
conti rocks! smart is sexy
Conti's teaching style is unique, untraditional. Read chapters before class - makes her irritated when students don't. Study guides are very useful for open book on-line quizzes and in class exams.
Conti is a great teacher her class was alot of fun she is a good teacher and her class is worth taking
great teacher: however, crazy grading system. make sure you keep track of the total number of points and your points.
Conti is very knowledgeable and tries to get the class involved with material. She gives study guides for ea. chapter quiz, midterm and final which really help! There were two reports and a project due but she gives plenty of time for completion. Just don't know where my grade stood during the class. But ended up with an A.
I really enjoyed her class. She kept my attention she wasn't dull and boring. I found her class to be really interesting and refreshing.Make sure to read over the chapters she does have the tendency to get annoyed when u don't. As for her grading system it was hard to keep track of.
Okay, so I was told by so many people.."TAKE CONTI, TAKE CONTI, SHE IS SUCH A GREAT TEACHER!" --no way. she is one of the worst teachers i've ever had in my whole life. she does not respect her students and is very bias...she loves to play favorites as well.
HORRIBLE TEACHER!!! DO NOT TAKE HER!! HARD TEACHER!!!!!
Amazing teacher! She is fing hilarious and so easy. You don't have to read or study much, but there are some projects. She will help you with anything if you just ask. And by help, I mean pretty much tell you EXACTLY what you need to do to get an "A".
she's cool
She is a great teacher and loves to help....She made psych. so interesting and fun..loved evey moment of her class.
Go to class, read, and follow directions. She makes you think out of the box and actually participate while you are learning. Will not leave you behind. Very helpful, fun class -great teacher. Just do the work and show up.
DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS! Her class is confusing, she insists on using angel, but is so unorganized it is impossible to figure out what you are doing. She forgets many things and makes many false claims that end up hurting the student. Her tests have the wrong answers and she is very ready to find you at fault instead of her methods.
Her tests have wrong answers. She gives wrong answers. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS.
She is an amazing teacher....Take Conti
HORRIBLE teacher. She makes you feel stupid and her tests are VERY HARD. DO NOT TAKE HER!!! WORST TEACHER I EVER HAD AT JJC.
Great teacher. Very energetic, which is nice when you have an early morning class.
Mrs. Conti was awesome. I thought this class was going to be horribly difficult but as long as you come to class and pay moderate attention, you can easily get an A. Mrs. Conti made class fun and interesting. Nice lady. She would always remember me and say hello and would sometimes try to play ultimate frisbee with us in the parking lot.
Very dissapointing. I thought i would really like her class because I liked her personality. It is just plain bad. She doesn't know the answers to the study guide or tests, and she doesn't teach what is on the tests. She talks about whatever she feels like and plays a lot of clips from Family Guy.
she is very easy. you can miss a couple classes but i recommend going. its a good class and shes fun to listen to. i have had her for psych 101 and 215. test are STRAIGHT from the stud guides on angel. participate in discussion
Mrs. Conti I know you read these things its mike spesis and you were my favorite teacher at jjc and made class entertaining to say the least. I reccomend everyone take her and just work at it a little bit 20 minues a day keeps the "F" away 40 minutes a day practically garuntees an "A"

Very Entertaining,Bizarre, possibly mentally ill. I heard a rumor she is doing some hush-hush research (illegally?). This class was way more work than it needed to be. Tests are mostly online and you can use your book. Her verbal instructions are often inconsistent with her syllabus and with what she says from week to week,but she is hilarious!
she makes you want to come to class and learn, but you have to want to too. read the chapters & you're going to be fine. shes helpful, very nice & energetic! we all know an 8AM class sucks, but she made me want to go! no doubt you will enjoy her class!
Mrs. Conti is one of the best teachers at JJC! I learned so much in her class, she is inspiring. She does expect you to do your homework. As long as you do, no problems. If you don't want to read your text book don't take this class. You can tell by the people's comments who don't like her. I'm sure they didn't do their homework.
Mrs. Conti is amazing...You will learn so much w/o realizing it...Take her
Mrs. Conti is hilarious!! She keeps ur attention all through class and makes it fun. She comes in dancing and playing music each morning! Her tests are on the coputer so they aren't bad at all and she is always willing to help. The class is all the basics and kind of an easy A. She knows a lot about the things that she teaches and makes it fun. She
Greatest teacher i've ever had
Great teacher. quizzes were online (which were great because open book). She is funny and keeps the class going. take her.
She is honestly the best teacher I've ever had!! She captures your attention throughout the whole class. She is always willing to help and everything is open note, book, and you can even ask her questions! Strongly recommend :)
Miss Conti Is i have to say the best teacher I have ever had. she turend a subject I couldnt care less about into something great. Always looked forward to going to her class.
Great teacher! Easy to talk to & she'll work with you if you don't understand something. Class participation is required, and yes, you must read the text book. Attendance is taken by in class writing essays. Quizzes are timed & given online, which is great because it's open book & multiple chances are given if you aren't happy w/your grade.
Conti is amazing... She expects you to put in the work and effort, but the payoff will be great. Going to class is so much fun and you don't even realize how much you learned in one class period... Take Conti, she rocks
mrs conti is interesting ..........she loves talking about babies and is willing to help anyone in the class. although you have to read a lot on your own if you do the class is an easy a
Mrs Conti is the best teacher ever. You really learn Lifespan so well with her. She has a easy way to make you understand the Lifespan.
VERY VERY GOOD TEACHER EVER. Her favorite saying Smart is Sexy.
Mrs. Conti is a great teacher its very syto understand her. She makes learning about lifespan fun. If you read the text and take the quizesyoushould pass.
Very fun teacher. I really enjoyed coming to class. She doesn't teach from the textbook in class, but all of the tests online are directly from the textbook, so you have to read the chapters or the tests will be difficult. All of the tests online are open until the end of the semester, so don't put them off until the last minute.
Mrs. Conti is honestly the best teacher I have ever had. She makes learning about Psych so much fun, and I always looked forward to her class. In 101 we used Aplia for homework and angel for tests and in 215 just angel. Do your work (dont wait till last min!), pay attention, and participate and you will have a great time in both these classes!
She is a great teacher an dmade class fun, however did not even cover everything from the syllabus. its called lifespan and we only made it to young children, chap 6 out of 26. never will i ever take one of her classes again.
She wasn't the greatest teacher I've had. She didn't really make sense and if you asked a question she'd make some snarky comment. Plus I didn't like going to her class because she openly admitted that she doesn't have a teaching degree. However I did like that we never had homework and had online tests to complete. I would not recommend her.
Mrs. Conti is a great teacher, I didn't have much interest in psych before taking her. All her test are on the internet so they're open book. She likes to say open bottle. If you put even a little bit of work in you should do well in her class, just participate in class discussions.
Most fun I've ever had in a class! She makes learning so fun and I always look forward to going to her classes. Highly recommend.
