really funny guy!!
AWesome teacher
He is a wonderful teacher! Dr. Miles is a great guy! If you want to enjoy going to class every other day....take him!!!
Dr. Mike Miles is probably the best teacher I have ever had! He has a way of teaching that makes you feel as if your just hanging out having a few beers, and learning some improtant stuff. He explains everything from his own experiences. You will have a wonderful time in this class and you will meet an incredible person.
Love him!!! Take him....for psychology! he is an auwsome teacher!!!!!! you wont be sorry!
amazing guy!!its like your watching a comedy show instead of class..and tells you whats on the test in the review... basically the only time you need to come to class...except sometimes he takes attendance
Awesome. Great. Interesting too!
Great Teacher!! Talks a lot but has a lot of funny stories!
great teacher. teaches by powerpoints. shows alot of videos too, but they help you to grasp a concept if you didnt quite understand it from him. the term paper is quite easy, any topic with human behavior. i would definitely recommend to anybody.
Excellent Teacher. This Was My first psych class. He make sit interesting and tells you what to study for on the test. I got nothing lower than an A on everything. GREAT TEACHER!!!
Professor Miles is aterrific teacher, I highly recommend him. If you have to take psychology. Please take him. Trust me you won't regret it.
Professor Miles is a terrific teacher. I highly recommend him. If you have to take Psychology, please take him. Trust me you won't regret it.
Professor Miles is a very fair professor. Lectures are intresting and he tells you what will be on the tests. Tests are hard but as long as you study you will do fine.
Great Teacher!! I took him for gen. psychology and then again for developmental psych. My favorite professor by far. Keeps interest during class and is great all around. Relates what you are learning to everyday life. If you to learn and get a good grade, take this professor.
Very easy teacher. Tells you whats on the tests so study that and you will be fine. There is an 8 page paper on any subject of human behavior... I wrote it the night before and got an A. Come to class every day and he gives you 10 extra credit points added to your grade but you have to remember to sign in. Nice guy, easy A.
One of the best Prof at PBCC. Tests are not easy, but if you STUDY you will do well. Makes what could be very boring material VERY interesting. Recommend him for anyone taking Psychology.
great teacher,just study what he tells you to and you will do good.
Dr. Miles is an amazing teacher! He is very organized and usually teaches a chapter a class w/ power point and w/ his own quirky stories that help you remember the material. He gives a mini review before tests and tells you whats on it. Take notes durring the powerpoints he often hints at test questions. I got an A not very hard.
I had an eye opening experience taking him as a professor. I strongly urge you to take him if you want to have a couple of laughs, and learn a lot about how the mind works :) He might be older, but he knows how the younger generations work!!! Inspirational!
Great Prof. Had more fun than I ever have in a classroom. He opens your mind up to the world. He is in touch with todays youth, his lectures are not just entertaining, but are also helpful when trying to understand hard concepts in class. If you want a great experience, take him. His test reviews are also golden, take a tape recorder.
Doc Miles is the best teacher in the world. his lectures work. he keeps you entertained. he tells lots of stories that make sense with the lectures. great professor. study for his exams and you'll do fine.
THE BESTTTTT!! So awesome...very entertaining, makes you think about stuff that really matters...he really TEACHES...easy too, he helps everyone pass--tells you EXACTLY what will be on the tests and you know exactly what to expect. Ill be taking him in all my future psych classes at pbcc. Take him, you won't be sorry.
AMAZINGG PROFESSOR !!! you learn a lot and he always makes the class interesting and funny!!
What a great guy. I learned a lot from him. Gives power point presentations every class. Tests are not hard as long as you study. Without enough study time put in...forget it!
best teacher ive ever had!
very nice professor!! test are hard but if you write down his test review and take notes you will pass... he cares and wants his students to pass... took 4 test and one term paper thats it!!! if you show up for class you will def pass!!
Excellent Professor! Best class I've ever taken! Makes PSYCHOLOGY very interesting and fun!! can't brag enough about this Professor! very passionate about his work
He is really nice, but occasionally goes off on tangents during his lectures. The tests are hard if you don't get his review. The review is given straight from the test and informs you what page to look on and what to look for... do the review and the test is a breeze. One term paper which is open topic, 8-10 pgs.
He is a really nice guy, & funny, but is really bad at teaching. He is always getting off topic and is really boring with his lectures. He teaches the whole hour. I would suggest someone else.
He is a very nice teacher but talks all the time, I don't know how I didn't fall asleep in his class. He is funny but too much talking makes the class so boring.
Dr. Miles is a great Professor with a love for teaching! He will do what ever it takes to help you out. The thing that makes him a great teacher is that he uses real life events to relate to the lecture topics. Go to class, attend the reviews, and do your paper and you are guaranteed an A.
Professor Miles is by far the BEST teacher i have ever had. He teaches the material in such a fun way, that you actually look forward to coming to class, and connects with the students. He is an excellent and understanding teacher and I would definitely recommend him for any class that he teaches.
BEST TEACHER EVER!!! Passionate about teaching and it really shows. He uses real life events to help you to relate and understand the material. If you don't take his class YOU will be the one missing out. He inspired me to pursue psychology! Amazing teacher all around.
Professor Miles is by far the best college professor I've had so far. He teaches because he has a passion for it! He sets you up for success from the beginning to end. Gives precise reviews. Allows you to pick your own psychology related topic for your research paper. He entertained me with his lectures which kept my interrest! Best experience ever
The best teacher i ever had in my lofe time . he will to help so you can be able to pass the class.
Great Teacher, makes PSY fun and interesting!
I don't like him at all, but some other people like him. If you like a teacher that jokes around to much, he is a good teacher to take. But if you like a teacher that stay on topic, he is not the one for you. I don't like him because, he gets off topic and I end up losing focus. But some people like him because he keeps the class interested
I really enjoyed his lectures and he makes things interesting and relate them to every day life. helpful, nice but his tests r kinda hard but if u dont study the tests will be really hard for you. 90% of grades are based on tests!
He's an amazing professor and always keeps the class interesting. A couple easy multiple choice test and one paper. GREAT CLASS! HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! :)
Had him for human growth and development. Very easy class! He tells you everything you need to do to get a good grade. If you dont get a a or b you diddnt try or diddnt pay attention. I got an a and would recommend him! only one problem, he seems to be a liberal. Teachers should keep politics out of the classroom. Not everyone loves Obama
cool guy, old, kept relating god to everything which made me less interested in his lectures. he cares that every student passes. tells you exactly what will be on exams which are all multiple choice. lectures aren't fun, but he does know what he is talking about. he has the credentials that make him fit to teach this class.
Great teacher.. knows what he is talking about like the back of his hand.. 3test 1 paper and be in class thats it..i got a 95.. wish i could tak him for every class
MILES=GREAT TEACHER...super helpful... interesting class... he gives great stories to help you understand all topics...i would take him anytime
Great professor, great lectures! He releates everything in psychology to ever day life which makes it easier to understand! Very helpful and gives you all kinds of material to study from! Def. recommended!!
ONLINE. Exam every week (easy), two chapters at a time. Provides lecture notes, PP, and practice quizzes. Discussion every week, takes no more than 15-20 min. 8-10 page term paper on whatever you want, not too difficult. Really easy class, just takes a little time and dedication. Dr. M responds and grades quickly, and is laid back. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Dr. Michael Miles is the most amazing teacher thus far. Inspiried me in so many ways this year. GREAT Teacher. Highly recommend.
Dr. Michael Miles is the most amazing teacher thus far. Inspiried me in so many ways this year. GREAT Teacher. Highly recommend.
Yes he is a nice guy, but his class sucks. He goes over the powerpoints and then tells so many stories about his life that dont help at all. It so boaring. He gives you a review right before the test where he give you a question and you have to find it in the book but then the test is something completely different. If you want to be board take him
Dr. Miles Is theeee Best !!! <3 Never got bored in his class, he is hilarious and very smart. I highly recommend him. The only bad thing is that in order to get an A in this class you must Read the Book, take notes and your set :)
I took his class on line and didn't like it. 25 question test every week . He gives PowerPoint every week but didn't find them helpful for the test. To pass his class need to read each chapter thoroughly and know them in and out. In addition, u watch a video every week and then answer questions about it. Take his class ur pretty much teaching yours
Mandatory attendance, or you lose 2 points each absence. 5 test, super hard.. powerpoints don't help, you have to read & you HAVE to do the practice test & review! Class is SO boring, he can be funny @ times but tells a bunch of useless stories. 1 paper @ the end worth 2 test grades. DO NOT TAKE. I feel like i had to learn by myself.
Best psychology tacher ever... relates life stories to psychology and it always leaves you thinking... Highly recommended
Best professor I've taken. Makes the class interesting and as long as you read the book, you can ACE every exam like I did. Final Report 8-10 pages, APA...you pick your OWN topic which is great...I LOVED THIS CLASS with Proffessor MILES!.. HE IS GREAT!
Dr. Miles is a great professor! He clarifies what will be on the exams and makes sure everyone knows the material. As long as you attend the classes, you will get an A! :)
He does have funny stories but honestly you have to teach yourself in this class, no class discussions, tests are not that easy a lot of the people in my class have Cs or Ds... very boring!
This class is easy in the sense that it is made up of only 4 tests and one long paper; however, make sure to read the chapters the chapters that the test is covering because the in class notes and lectures are not very helpful. Professor Miles is very helpful and always encourages his students to come to his office for help.
Dr. Miles is the nicest guy! He is so patient and so helpful. I took his child growth and development course online and really enjoyed it. His directions are very straight forward and he ALWAYS responses to your emails in a timely manner. Definitely take Dr. Miles!
took his psy and human growth class I really enjoyed the material and his lectures can be funny. BUT! most of the time he repeats his stories again and again and I would have preferred a prof who did more class discussions than sit through lectures everyday
Great professor, very helpful. Took his online class and got an A
Great class! Best professor I have had in college so far! Highly recommend Dr. Miles! :)
His test reviews are exactly what will be covered on the test. Try to go and see him after class in his office, that is the only time I actually got an A on his test. He is always willing to help you one on one. TAKE HIM, YOU WILL LEARN!
He really is a great professor. He does a test review one class before the test, in which question by question is RIGHT off the test. One 2,000 word paper (any topic you chose) is due 14 weeks into course, so you have plenty of time to write it. Easy grader. Miss one class, one point gets taken off participation. I would recommend him!
Great professor who wants to teach others not only to pass tests but be a better person
Such a sweet man who truly enjoys his profession. Always willings to help students if they truly want help and if they seek assistance from him. Attend all of his lectures in order to pass the exams. His life story is amazing and he doesn't want to just help you "pass the next test." He wants to teach you valuable lessons in life. TAKE HIM!
Really nice guy. If you put in the appropriate effort this class should be an A. One of the best professors!
Easy going teacher. Very easy going understanding. But the class can be a challenge. You need to be in class because you do get points for being there. Always have a doctors note whenever being absent or at least a note from your parent if you do still live with them. Otherwise make sure you take notes from Powerpoint and write down what he says.
BEST TEACHER! he is completely dedicated to his students!! super easy class if you just pay attention, no need to even take notes!
When I enter the human service program dr miles, bey, richmond, kass, and asher, jenkins, dr pride were the best professor's at palm beach communuty college
Amazing professor. Take him if you can. His lectures are great, easy to understand and informative. You will learn so much. Uses the book and powerpoint. He lets you record his test reviews to help study.
Professor Miles was awesome. I took this class online. Weekly discussions, he gives feedback for. Weekly quizzes (go with the book). One 2,000 word paper on your choice topic. The grading is fair, and I appreciated not having tons of busy work.
He is a a good professor. He gives long lectures that takes you through the whole class. Your final exam is the paper assignment he provides from the beginning of the course and isn't due until the end of the term. His tests are fairly easy if you study his review. You recieve points for show ing up to class; which can help your grade.
Amazing professor, I truly learned so much. Great lectures. No homework. He is a doctor, very intelligent. Helped me tremendously Term paper 1,600 words due last few days of class. His tests are easy yet challenging. All you need to do is study. Record his verbal study guide. You get extra points for being there much brought my grade up!
This is the definition of an amazing man. I was battling cancer during the semester and he was completely understanding, told me his personal story and offered me help if ever needed. He will meet with you in person or over the phone. Mini papers are easy, exams are ok once you learn his style, READ READ READ THE BOOK. Great class, very interesting
Dr. Miles is the best professor in PBSC, his lectures are amazing, he makes psychology interesting with his personal experiences and great knowledge of the material. If you ever need help outside of class he is always there for you, would take him again and strongly recommend. Pay attention in class and you will do fine
Best professor ever! His lectures are great, he is respectful and funny, Always there for you. His class was the best part of my day. I highly reccomend you take this class even if psychology is not your major or needed for credit. I learned a lot because he cares about his students and makes the class interesting by sharing his amazing stories.
Michael Miles was a fantastic professor and I'm glad I decided to sign up for his course. If this is a course requirement for you, but you really don't have any interest in Psych then I suggest you take this. He gives you every chance in the world to succeed. Before test will go every single question and give you the answers.
Arguably one of the worst classes I have ever taken. I am a psychology major and was very excited to take this class but this guy was awful. Has no idea how to teach and will stay on one slide the entire class and talk about absolute nonsense stories about his past that have NOTHING to do with ANYTHING WHATSOEVER. Do not take this class!!!! Awful!!
There are four pre-tests before the final test. The pre-tests cover two chapters. Finding the answers to these pre-tests are time-consuming and confusing.
Forget about lecture notes, PowerPoint and practice tests (time consuming and pointless).Want to Ace the test? Just go with the book 100%, trust me.
Class was a breeze. He gives out a fail-proof test review before every exam and it's the best. Even if he doesn't always stay on topic during class, those test reviews are exactly like the test and it's a piece of cake. You need the textbook to look up answers on the test reviews but other than that, reading isn't necessary to pass.
Professor Miles was absolutely the best! He does get off topic MANY of times but his test reviews are the best. Listen carefully on his test reviews and you'll do just fine! Defiantly would recommend!
cares for the students. He helps you in any way he can. He lets you record him for the test review. Easy A if you study
HIGHLY recommend this professor! Super kind and very knowledgable. He truly cares for his students and does his best for them to succeed. Make sure to attend his class everyday! He gives you extra credit for attendance that goes towards the final. His test reviews are super helpful so I suggest you pay attention! TAKE HIM!
Love this professor!!!!! very nice and very helpful! 10 out of 10!!!!!
Very wonderful professor. Extremely knowledgable in his work and knows what he's talking about. Will work with you, and gives very good lectures. Awesome teacher 10/10
Very sweet professor! May sometimes talk about random things but he's very helpful! Tries his best for you to succeed! Of course, you will have to study his material in order to get a good grade. Highly recommend! :-)
Dot get me wrong this class was good but to be honest I could have taken it online and saved a lot of time. He's a super sweet old man but he talks really slow and for those who work a lot or stay out late and go to class tired, youll be asleep real quick. The tests are basically skimming the PP and a verbal review he does in class. REVIEW DAY!!
