He was new the semester I took his class. It was kind of fun. The tests were a touch hard, but he did a good job at trying to show us how the stuff was in our lives. I marked that attendence was not mandatory, but he tended to talk about things in class that ended up on the test.
I leanred a lot from Marsing. I really liked his lecture style. Everything on the tests was found in my lecture notes. Study really well and you can get a good grade. He is a great teacher!
its a fun class. You really have to study for the tests
His tests are a little hard, but his mercy is unbelievable. I definitely recommend his class.
The class was fun, but challenging. Everyone else is right, you have to study!! But if you do the class is managable and the lectures are way interesting. If you actually go talk to him he is easy to work with.
Marsing's test were hard but hilarious!!! I struggled at first but after I went and talked to him I did a lot better. You MUST study for his tests! And you will WANT to go to class... it is fun.
Not sure what everyone else is talking about. All you have to do is show up and study and his class is just as easy as any other. Tests did have weird stuff in them, that made them different. Overall, a good class.
I LOVED this class! He is a great teacher. You do have to go to class if you want to pass, and you have to STUDY, STUDY, STUDY - its worth it if you do! Great class.
Great teacher! His lectures are always fun to listen to. If you make sure to take notes and to ACTUALLY study them, you'll do well in this class. One of my favorite teachers last semester.
He's a good teacher but he has expectations for the students in a short amount of time. He talks fast so its hard to take notes even when you are using short hand. His teaching strategy with the iclicker is a good one and is helpful but its hard with all the reading he requires in a short amount of time is a lot to take in. But he's a good teacher.
Loved Marsing. He kept the class interesting and challenging. Decently hard for a 1010 class, but a year later, I'm still always recalling things I learned from his class. Great teacher!
I went to class everytime, did everything I was suppose to and got a "C" I was not a fan of his style of teaching or his organization.
I love psychology, and the class was so interesting, but his tests were VERY hard. I really struggled. Studying really hard I pulled off a C. It was discouraging. I learned a lot though, I just don't think my grade reflected what I was learning. Hard hard.
I took a webcast kind of class with him, so an email was required to communicate. His responses were sometimes slow or nonexistant. He is very clear when teaching, but the tests are somewhat difficult and the questions can have unclear answers because they're tricky. There was a short quiz once a week, so attendance was only required once a week.
Nice guy but... His organization is lacking, is often not sure of his teaching schedule. Not a fan of his over-used unoriginal jokes or his seeming egocentrism, "Demigod of Psychology" and what not. Undermines other teachers on campus. Lots of students like him but his disorganization and self-glorification turn me off.
Seems to be very knowledgable in his area but he is a little pretentious and his teaching strategy is disingenuous at best. He has so many different methods of submitting assignments and quizzes. YouTube, iclicker, written, etc.
VERY energetic, fun, and involved, but his tests are brutal. He knows his stuff, but his organization and test difficulty definitely need some work.
Super energetic and crazy! I loved going to his classes, but his tests are the hardest things ever! Study and pay attention! Good class though-learned a lot.
I thought Marsing was intimidating, but hilarious. He puts on a show of narcissism in his teaching style, with "shameless advertising" of his photography, but I honestly liked him as a teacher. I wouldn't necessarily want to be his friend, but I learned a lot from his class.
If you're considering taking Psych I'd definitely recommend 1.) Not taking an EDNET Class 2.)If you're taking Intro to Psych or another Psych class then I'd definitely choose someone other than Marsing for a professor. Does not respond to contact and will not tell you what you need to improve on to get a better grade. (EVER)
He's a nice guy. But the truth is I hate his classes. People say his classes are hard but really they're inefficient and disorganized. If school is your only demand the class is okay. If you have a job don't take it. The learning to work ratio is horrible. I'm not even sure what I'm supposed to be learning with his assignments most of the time.
Yes he asks a little more than most professors and yes he may be a little stuck on himself but putting those things aside he really knows what he is talking about and makes it fun to learn about.
Not the hardest class, but what Iexpect from a college course. He's highly energetic, but that helped me pay better intention in class. I did well if I went to all his class and took notes, and skimmed the chapters and I always pulled a good grade on his tests.If you pull an average score of 96% on your tests, you don't have to take the final.
I seriously love this class. As mentioned, the tests are difficult - but he gives you everything you need to know in your notes, so if you study them well you shouldn't have a problem. This class doesn't require a ton of outside work, and is a bit disorganized. BUT he's so passionate, energetic, and fun. I'm considering majoring in it now!
Nick Marsing is a super nice professor! You will get your grade according to how hard you work. It's a good class.
Marsing is a very good teacher. His tests are hard if you don't study the notes and don't pay attention in class. We hardly ever had outside work. Come to class everyday and you'll get an A! Highly recommend taking Psych with Marsing.
He is very self centered and disorganized. He shows very little interest in helping his students succeed. He asks a lot of his students, more then a 1010 level course should.
Everyone in my class loved Marsing, and why wouldn't you? The only thing I could think of is you like structure or something crazy like that. He really is a good teacher, sure he spends most of his time bagging on other professors or his church rather than teaching psychology, but there's nothing wrong with that, is there?
The tests are inconsistent. You have to achieve a certain score in order to move on.The staff said he 'is not good at getting back to students' and to 'just drop the class'.The modules were not clearly outlined. I had to look up key words in an assignment or test then look in the book to know which chapter to read.
His tests are pretty straightforward as long as you paid attention during the lectures but the short answer essays were always where I lost points.
I won't lie his class is hard but I felt I was better prepared to take other college course after this class. If you are struggling go talk to him! He is there for his students. If you are a psych major get involved in his program. He offers you opportunities at this level of education that you can't get anywhere else in state. TAKE LECTURE NOTES
Not very professional
Marsing is a great teacher and is really funny, but his class was hard. His tests are confusing (even if you study all day and night). If you are struggling, go to him because he will help you.
He's a great teacher. Lectures are really good and he makes sure you understand the material Defiantly a college level class. Don't slack in his class.
He's a really good professor. He can be tough but that's if you're stupid, don't study your notes and don't pay attention in class.
I really liked his class. I thought it interesting and engaging, and definitely worth my time.
Marsing was a fantastic professor. I loved going to his classes and applied a lot the knowledge learned to my own life. Study for the tests! I somehow passed this class by only turning in 1 assignment. C's get degrees! One of my favorite and most entertaining teachers I've had.
Super awesome professor!! He really made the class interesting, even though it's a little nerve wracking to worry about homework. I really enjoyed it and had a lot of fun though.
Professor Marsing was a really great teacher. Beware though, he talks kind of quickly so brush up on your note taking skills. The class was never boring and I never felt like I was doing busy work. If you are interested in psychology, Professor Marsing may just convince you to devote your life to it.
Awesome professor! He is passionate about what he teaches and is always super animated and entertaining while lecturing. Don't expect an easy A, you'll have to put some effort in, but it's worth it because it's interesting stuff you're learning. Definitely get a book and READ all the modules. It makes the class 1000 times easier. Great class!!
Probably the worst teacher I have had. He is not nice and not helpful. He is very full of himself and very arrogant. His test are hard and he doesn't explain what will be on the test. I have never cried so much over a class before. Highly recommend taking this class from another teacher!
He is very disorganized and often times rambles on. Would NOT recommend to anyone who wants to learn psychology.
Horrible, horrible teacher. Very rude and full of himself.
Great man, great class. The issue here is that I'm not the best student. You must stay on top of absolutely everything or else your grade will plummet. Go to class, young padawan. Do your work and you'll be okay. But no worries! He makes class really interesting and fun. You'll enjoy yourself.
Worst teacher I have ever had. He's not willing to help you and makes you feel dumb when you ask a question. He is always talking about his "upper level class". He is EXTREMELY arrogant and cocky. Not a good teacher or a nice man.
Favorite Class-simply because of the professor. His tests are tough, but if you study throughout the semester and try and understand the material you'll be fine.
I don't know what the "Poor" raters are talking about! All you have to do is talk to him... he spent 20 min explaining something to me one day. He will tell you if your are wrong so if used to being babied by teachers he will not. He is a bit challenging, but if you just show up and pay attention the class is easy to follow.
Phenomenal!! Best professor I've had & I've had some great professors. Challenging course, but you'll get quality education & learn life skills. He's fair, especially when it comes to group work. If you have questions ASK! He's more than willing to help! His teaching style is engaging & applicable. I was disappointed whenever class GOT cancelled.
Loved this class! Very laid back and entertaining. Marsing has a way of teaching that leaves you intrigued & wanting to know more! When that happens & you find yourself wanting to learn more, take his intro or upper level classes! He's great! This class has few assignments and no tests. It's just a fun class to take to see psychology in the media.
Very fun and energetic! Pay attention and take good notes and you'll do just fine!
He is a wonderful professor and is so much fun.
Great he talked it all out Intel we got it psy 2010
Great teacher! I loved his class, it was always interesting. He always engaged the class and made things fun, plus he is funny. He had several quizzes, but they are easy and open note and open book. Definitely one of my favorite teachers at Snow.
I love Professor Marsing! I've heard his introductory course can be tough, but in all of his upper level courses, he is incredible. He clearly explains the material, gives real world examples, and works with his students. His social psych class is more laid back- he gives you just enough rope to hang yourself if you procrastinate projects.
Professor Marsing was a great teacher! He taught me a lot about psychology and where I want to go with it. Can't wait to take more of his classes!
Marsing's class was fun! I actually liked going to class! He expects a lot from his students but he is really willing to help if you ask, and he tries to be fair. He makes adjustments based on student needs and performance. Pay attention and take notes and you will do fine.
Best class ever. I have told all my friends to take Marsing's psychology class. It is interesting and makes you think about your world in a new way. I wish I could take this class every semester. I heard horror stories from friends who had a different teacher.
Highly recommend taking one of his classes, he is a good teacher and is really there for you to help you succeed.
Professor Marsing's psychology class was great. I actually liked going to class and learned a lot, not just about psychology but about myself and my world. He challenged me, but made me realize I could do more than I thought.
He has you take notes but they're clear and easy (make sure you expand on your notes) Textbook is a nice thing to read along with. He is engaging with the large class size, he has his students experiment in class and learn course material by engaging his students.
He is hilarious and a cool guy. He makes it fun to learn.
Professor Marsing is an AMAZING professor! I have had a blast taking his class this semester! I recommend him without any hesitation. He is a little tougher, but it's worth it. He doesn't just lecture, he interacts with his students and has a true passion for what he is teaching!
Marsing is very passionate about what he teaches, and he's very knowledgable. However the way he talks and describes concepts he comes off as arrogant and a know it all. We constantly had to take quizzes that were ridiculous and he would never post assignments on canvas when he said he would. Very frustrating and disappointing.
While his lectures were hilarious and entertaining, I felt that very little of what we went over in class actually ended up being on the test. We were also required to purchase the I-clicker app, which cost $15 for the semester and did the same thing as kahoot, along with a few supplemental materials we used maybe once the entire semester.
Marsing is one of the best professors that I've had! He encourages you to talk to him outside of class and will explain concepts when you are confused. He made learning a difficult subject interesting! His tests were somewhat difficult, but was always very reasonable with grading. Highly recommend!
Love Marsing. He's super funny + he shows that he really knows his stuff. However his (or whoever writes the Q's for quizzes, etc) SPELLING IS TERRIBLE. It's usually just letter order & sometimes if is of or is is it... But, all that said, he really is one of the best lecturers I've had. I changed my major to psych because of him. Do your work.
LECTURE: Marsings class is enjoyable. He is funny and is great at drawing in his audience. HOMEWORK: For each unit, expect two quizzes and at least one assignment. Marsing has really bad spelling on the quiz, so sometimes it can be difficult to know what he is looking for. Also, he tests on subjects or ideas not found in lecture or the book.
Super funny awesome teacher! I loved his class and he always made it very interesting. The only thing that I did not like was that his test were very difficult and you really need to study for them and read the book. But other than that was a wonderful teacher. If you take the class that is projected to high schools it is a lot easier and less HW.
Professor Marsing is a great teacher just really hard class to understand
He is one of my favorite professors ever. I loved his class! It wasn't all that easy but it was definitely worth taking. He is open to suggestions about changing things he has done and he loves to answer questions. He is hilarious and always try to make class very enjoyable for everyone.
I didn't like this professor at all to be honest. He was super unforgiving on assignments and very opinionated. The tests were ridiculous as well. He made the questions outrageously hard to understand, as he threw in nonsense about munchkins and wizards, probably to throw you off. I hated the class and skipped a lot, but I'm still passing just fine
I feel like he got off topic while trying to teach us, and it made it really confusing. I also did not like that he made his test questions into something that does not make sense. I think he was all over the place when he was teaching and it made it hard to understand what was going on in class.
I loved Marsing's class! His lectures were very entertaining. He knows his students by name, and he's passionate about his topic. The tests and quizzes weren't hard if you put in the time to study and prepare for them. I would definitely take his class again.
He was a really good teacher. it wasn't amazing but I didn't hate it either. most of the class was just lecturing and you have to do little to no work to pass the class, because of this I don't feel like I learned much or got anything out of the class
I've had 4 classes from him and loved all of them! He has inspired me to become a psych major. His intro class can be rough with exams and he is a bit intimidating. IT'S WORTH IT TO GET TO AN UPPER LEVEL COURSE. He is absolutely hilarious, and he tries to make all his assignments fun. We've watched movies for assignments, even for a final. Superb!!
Loved going to class because he was so go at giving lectures.
Marsing always has very interesting lectures and he's a good teacher. I found his test and quizzes very hard though and some of the assignments were graded very hard.
Marsing is great. His humor made it all better. I really enjoyed his lectures. Do the homework ahead of finals and you'll be sweet!
This was actually a class I wanted to go to. Not a psychology major but I think I learned things. Go to class, pay attention and study class will not be to difficult.
Amazing professor. Class is always fun and interesting. Be prepared to take a lot of notes!!!!!
He does not to a very good job at providing feedback about what you did wrong in your assignments or how you can improve. The tests are super hard so you will need to study all the time for them.
Very fun teacher! His lectures are entertaining and fun to be apart of. There wasn't much homework but when there is it pushes you academically. Very fun class!
He is very entertaining in class and good at presenting the material in a way that's interesting and memorable. Even as a non-psych major I enjoyed it. Things're kinda crazy, as he forgets to post assignments until you have several at once (he'll give more time though). He also gives assignments in-class that you'll miss if you don't show up.
Marsing is the worst kind of teacher. He thinks he is funny. Grading is done by T.A.'s and they don't attend class. Quizzes/ tests are mainly from lectures. Trying to discuss your grade/ feedback from assignments is difficult. I would send him an email & he would take over a week to reply. He is very unaccommodating & would not help.
I took his class because I was a little interested in psychology. His lectures are great. It's fun and very engaging. However my problem was that his tests always ruined my grade. Most of the questions in the tests are very tricky and some of them aren't even in a textbook.
I loved Marsing! He is an amazing professor and I totally recommend. He's great at captivating his students and he taught me so freaking much. His class is not incredibly hard either. He is a fair grader too. I really don't have anything bad to say about him because he's a very good professor and everyone should take his class!
You need to pay attention in class and take tons of notes. If you attend class regularly and pay attention, it is very easy to receive a good test score. Professor also has corrections for the test. I really like the class overall.
I found his psychology class to be insightful, eye-opening, and fun! Attendance is very important, so don't skip his class to go on a McDonald's run. He works well with having the students decide how tests, assignments, and quizzes are graded, which is very helpful. I enjoy his class, and I plan on taking more from him again!
Prof. Marsing was my favorite professor I've ever taken a class from. He is clearly passionate about what he is teaching, and he instilled that passion in me! I also learned to love psychology! Super fun, interesting class. 10/10
I personally loved all of Marsing's lectures and he is willing to work with his students. It is apparent that he wants them to succeed. He can be opinionated sometimes, but I personally find that much more interesting and it usually isn't super controversial anyway. The strongest opinion I heard was how he firmly believes JELLO IS NOT A SALAD.
Most of the questions on quizzes and tests are from the lecture,so you can't miss them. The questions are very specific,and are graded very harshly. He is very hard to get a hold of through emails or canvas messaging,and usually takes a few days to reply. He seems to think the only class we are taking is his and we have a lot of time for just him.
To do well in this class you really just need to take good notes and do the assignments as given. Most have rubrics, and the tests go off of things he makes a point to discuss in class.
Professor Marsing is great at teaching the students the material in a way that they all understand. His class is fun to be in, only, make sure that you start your assignments early. He is specific about how he grades, but if you start early and work hard, you should get a good grade. Overall, it's a great class.
Mr. Marsing is really fun and connects everything you learn to the real world. You really learn a lot in this class and have fun while doing it. He is really strict with assignments and quizzes though. Some of the assignments are kinda hard, but that is because you learn a lot from them. Definitel would recommend if you're interested in psychology.
Unfortunately, my experience with Marsing was quite negative. He was very disorganized, often taking weeks to grade assignments (final grade submitted AFTER the grade deadline) and spoke in a condescending manner, shrewdly shaming students who could not answer questions. His lectures were hit-and-miss; some quite interesting and others confusing.
I took this course through concurrent enrollment in high school. It was my first college course. It was relatively hard, but not so bad I wouldn't recommend the course. Professor Marsing gives very engaging lectures and makes learning psychology fun, though. As long as you show up and actually try on the homework, you should be fine.
probably the worst professor ive ever had. sure, hes funny, but he takes over a week to respond to emails, never grades things so youre always wondering what youre getting, gives hardly any feedback, and it seems that he thinks his class is the only class we have. he expects so much and gives unrealistic deadlines (no late work is accepted). ��
Professor Marsing is amazing at what he does, and he makes the class incredibly engaging. I will say that he does have a lot of students, so its a little hard to reach him outside of class. Hes a tough grader, but if you work hard you should do alright! If you dont show up to the lectures, you most likely wont do well.
He is entertaining and funny but his tests are really difficult and not always aligned with the material. I really had to work hard for the grade that I got. He also takes a long time to respond to emails and grade assignments.
Hes such a great guy. Hes there for when you need him, and hes totally down to chat for a bit after class if you need to.
Very fun guy. Always has us laughing in class. Although he usually has a couple of assignments going per week, they're usually fairly easy.
Marsing is by far the best professor I've had at Snow. He's way better in his upper level classes than intro to psy. He makes class fun all the time and we did some cool stuff during class. His lectures are entertaining and there aren't any projects. The homework is fairly minimal and we only had 1 test the whole semester.
I did not have the same experience as most people I have talked to. Professor Marsing makes class engaging and fun, but I felt as though he didn't care about his students. I contacted him twice outside of class, and both times it seemed like he did not care about the issues I was presenting, and instead made it into a problem about my own character
This was one of the worst professors I have ever had. He was never specific with what was expected nor did he care to help students succeed. He tended to be very inappropriate in his vocabulary and with what he showed in class.
Marsing's psychology class was one of the classes that I learned the most in. I could easily go by his office and he would take time to help me. He has assignments that are actually fun, and quizzes you can take twice. He does expect work and maturity because it is a psychology class - but I never felt he was being inappropriate.
He is a pretty fun professor. You're definitely going to have to put effort into this class if you take it. He's funny and willing to help.
Marsing is the best professor I have had at Snow. I always learned so much from every lecture. This isn't a super easy class, so don't expect that. However, if you pay attention, write notes, and study you'll be fine!
This professor was one of my favorite professors I have had so far. The class was always interesting and did have good ammount of homework, however he always gave a good ammount of time to finish them. I would absolutely reccomend this professor to a friend.
This professor is one of the most amazing professors I have ever taken a class from. All of the lectures are very interesting and informational.
Pretty good
all goooood
Marsing is an amazing professor! He has really interesting lectures, great vibes, and really cares that you know the stuff you are learning. The lectures aren't to heavy and the book isn't to hard to keep up with. I would recommend Marsing over any other professor!
Takes forever to grade.
He is very interesting to listen to and fun to engage. He is very lecture heavy so don't miss class!
The class was very good but frustrating. Tests were only slightly miserable.
Marsing is a tough grader and if you miss a class you will be lost going back. He has good lectures and you actually learn stuff.
Good class. Important lecture and textbook
Great.
He's a really good professor and I would recommend to take classes from him.
Marsing always makes class super fun and exciting!!
I love Marsing, but I suggest avoiding taking Psy-1400 from him. The slides and lectures get off-topic quickly. Canvas is a mess, the tests didn't correlate with the lectures, and nothing gets graded until way after, so you don't know your grade until the class is over. By Thanksgiving break, things from mid-September still hadn't been graded.
Quizzes are used to create tests but change just enough to make you think. That part of the class is difficult and not something that I really liked. I love the lectures and have learned a lot during this course. It has been one of my favorites.
Loved this professor. He made going to class worth it and gave amazing lectures that you don't want to miss.
This teacher is not willing to work with anyone. All test are timed so people who have dyslexia or other disabilities have a hard time being timed on test. No matter how much you study. You only get to take test 2 times which again for people with dyslexia we know the answer but have to read a few times a lot but don't have a change to retake.
Marsing was an awesome professor. His class was very interesting and he always had great stories that related to the class. I would take this class again for sure, just make sure you take good notes.
Marsing has really good lectures, they are very entertaining and informational. You get 2 attempts on all the quizzes so you have a good opportunity to do well. As long as you study well and attend class you should do well!
This class is so much fun! Marsing has this class set up so that the assignments are fun and group oriented. The final is a blast and I really feel like I have learned so much.
Worst professor I've ever had. Takes forever to grade work. Grades it unfairly. The amount of work he gives is equivalent to 3 of my other classes. Doesn't post all the assign. til last min. This was miserable. He's not helpful when you ask questions. Not enough time on tests and the questions are purposely very confusing. Most stressful class.
Worst ever! In my online class this summer he just had a message up saying that the course was "almost ready" for the first two weeks! So we were already behind and just wasting time. And then he changed the textbook AFTER the start of the semester. Worst of all he never answered emails and was wayyyyy slow to grade work. Don't take his class!
Was amazing! Really funny and made everyone laugh!
Approachable!
Prof. Marsing is really cool and I love listening to his lectures. He is good at presenting the material and getting students to think. 10/10 would recommend.
Marsing is THE BEST! His higher Psychology classes are definitely where he shines. Social Psychology has been super fun to learn about, and he makes it so interesting.
Literally the best class ever. This guy could be a comedian. He's helpful when it comes to discussing catching up, grades, and accommodations. He's not super strict.
This is one of marsings most fun classes. He is really engaged in the class itself and you do a lot of group projects and fun assignments. There a few tests but if you study and pay attention you will do well, I can't suggest this class or professor marsing enough!
I took both PSY 1010 and PSY 2034 and each time I was really frustrated. He tries to be funny and entertaining, but the structure of his courses needs a lot of work. His canvas assignments are never updated and they have really confusing instructions. He doesn't grade anything until finals week so you really never know your real grade. Don't take!!
Dude is fun and definitely knows his stuff. He's very entertaining and gives lots of examples to what he teaches. HOWEVER, his class is VERY difficult. He's very picky with written responses in tests and doesn't say what you did wrong. Expect to take a LOT of notes.
i love him so much. so funny. lots of lectures but very interesting. lots of homewokr but most of them are intresting. and there is a lot of group projects but i didnt mind
Professor Marsing's lectures are engaging and make the class enjoyable. The material is manageable if you stay on top of the readings and assignments. unstuck study was super helpful for study prep - definitely saved me some time.
Great teacher, but assignments and grading lacked clarity, costing me, who grew up poor, 4.0 student, all my scholarships. Classes were often canceled and made last-minute student inturn workdays. No help with that. The Canvas course and structure outside lectures were disorganized, making success hard in this high-level, prerequisite-heavy course.
this class was great if youre studying psych. marsing had great slides and examples to show what we were talking about. you do need to take lots of notes and really pay attention. only thing I disliked about this class was how hard his quizzes and tests were. the quizzes didn't really make sense compared to what we learned
Such a fun class with a professor who you can tell cares deeply about the material and his students. Show up to class and engage with the material and you will have fun!
He was rude& hard to reach and meet with. When I went to him with concerns, he got defensive and never helped me. His TAs graded very badly & I would have to meet with him to correct their grading,(he never corrected it). He also says the exam questions come from the quizzes but that's a lie and he tests on everything! Do not recommend him!
He will not work with you outside of class. He also tries too hard to be funny. He'll embarrass you in front of class to get a couple of laughs. Expect to be let down by grading. I had assignments from January that didn't get graded until the end of April. Also, assignments and even finals wouldn't get posted until the day it was due.
Really good teacher for such a hard topic. Overall good.
I didn't love this class. The lectures were great and you could tell he cared about what he taught. He was slow at answering emails and wasn't very forgiving or communicative. The quizzes were hard even if you've spent hours studying the book. I would think about taking his class again because he really cared about what he teaches.
