She's a really good PSYCH 101 professor. She works straight from the book in her lectures. She is VERY funny and informative on any information in Psychology. There are ways for extra credit and she wants you to not fail. Very helpul and it is extrememly easy to approach her. Take her if you can!
Dr. GH is very apporachable and very understanding. She gives a study guide for each exam. Lectures are clear to understand and gives examples and analogies as she goes through the concepts. I recommend her without any reservation for Psych 101.
ALWAYS LATE FOR CLASS, and very disorganized. Wasn't terrible at teaching. Exam review didn't cover everything that was on the exams. Don't take if you don't want to be in a class of 200 people. Also, she emphasized race way to much and it didn't correlate with the subject matter.
Really good teacher. Her lectures were clear and tests were easy if you studied the notes - no need to read the book and you can still get an A. Take her!
Her definitions are sometimes confusing, but everything she teaches is pretty much straight out of the book. Her consistent tardiness was somewhat frustrating--she was 15 minutes late for the final exam! However, she is extremely nice and the class is definitely easy.
She really knows how to make the class interesting. With funny jokes, great notes, and easy tests, i highly recommend taking psychology with her.
easy class, just pay close attention to her notes and you will do well on tests. don't really need to read the book.
Dr. GH is a fabulous, fabulous professor. She's a rock solid researcher, so very intelligent, and she's a great advisor-she will help you do your best and is supportive and encouraging,e specially when you're struggling. I love working with her. If you're interested in resilience go study with her!
Nice lady and gives good examples to help clarify. don't bother buying the book unless you want some extra money from mom and dad. study the notes and exam review and you should do fine.

awesome ,awsome ,awsome. i loved this class. she is the best teasher at loyola .she is very helpful and makes class very interesting. jus pay attention in class and read notes you will get an A.
She was a really great teacher, the notes were thorough and interesting, and she gave study guides before every test. She made the test really easy, and offered extra credit on top of that. If you got anything below a B you are an idiot. She was fun and had some style!
WOW, she was great. There are 4 test and the final is not cummlative. There are weekly questions that are graded only for participation. And she gives lots of other extra credit opportunities. Her class was great and I considered switching my major to Psyc!
great teacher! she makes the class fun and easy. i would recommend taking her to anyone.
Definitely easy class, no need to buy the book, unless you want it as reference. All you need to do is take good notes, not miss class as much and your set. She also gives loads of extra credit!!
Ok, I am a straight woman and I can tell you that Noni is hot. Man, she has an awesome body to follow....ok, psy, she knows her s***, and she will make everything as clear as crystal. Would like to find out if she is the same in higher classes...I definetely recommend her. Tests are fair, and she brings humor into her class...hello tootsie rolls
Love her! Absolutely love her. She's a ton of fun. I've always thought I hated psych., but this class was actually enjoyable. Take her for sure. Don't buy the book, either. Just pay attention and take notes, and you'll do fine. Can't go wrong.
DONT BUY THE BOOK! you don't need it, i didn't even open my book and i got A- in the class. Great teacher with good looks but too much notes BUT not so hard tests. Better read thru notes to get good grade!
Really really easy prof. Gives load of extra credit. Book isn't really needed at all everything you will need will be in your notes.
Just pay attention in class and you will do fine.
dr. gh is a great teacher. she is very helpgul and very knowledged in her lectures. tons of extra credit. TAKE HER!!! she is so helpful
Great class, she knows her material, and she's hot.
Her tests are easy if you memorize all the things she lists on the study guide, which is fairly easy to do. Don't cram like I did, but even if you do you'll get an A every time on her tests. She gives 4 assignments and a couple in class responses.
she really knows her stuff... gotta love the hair too! she is very knowlegable and is willing to help... dont need the book at all, just notes and in class stuff...
Great prof. Class is always interesting, she is very knowledgeable and tons of extra credit. She also gives out study guides for all the tests, and the final isn't cumulative. I loved her!
Very easy class, you can not get lower than B in the class unless you do not put effort at all. Easy A, a lot of extra credit. Do not need the book, its all about the notes
She's awesome. She relates well to the class and keeps things interesting. Tests are totally manageable if you study and memorize the study guide. Def. worth your time, even if you aren't interested in Psy. She's pretty, funny, and interesting. TAKE IT, you'll love it!
This class was easy! She gives around 4 exams and no quizzes or anything like that. All you gotta do is study the book and it's not hard at all. The tests are really easy. Don't miss a class though.
Easy class if u pay attention!! However, u won't get expected grade and u will not get ur test score back for a long time
PSYC 101
Best teacher I've had so far. Her powerpoints presentations are exactly what is on the test. Gives extra credit. Just so nice.
She is one of the GREATEST professors at Loyola. It is difficult not to pay attention when she teaches, she does it so well. 4 Exams, 4 Assignments, That's it no more, no less.
Great Professor! Don't buy the book..seriously..u'll never use it. Her tests are from the notes and the quizzes are online..open notes. You'll have to do 10 experiments, but her class is easy, definantly take her!
She was sooo NICE and keep that class interested. The notes are powerpoint style so don't worry if you don't catch everything she's saying in a 200 student classroom. The are online/open book and notes quizzes and a few extra credit @ the end of the semester. SHe's pretty easy if u take notes and study off of them, don't worry about the book.
She's good, but she basically paraphrases the textbook for you. No need to buy the textbook, really, her lectures ARE the textbook but she puts them on powerpoint which gives you a nifty outline. An 'A' is easily attainable with the extra credit opportunities she offers.
Wow. Best Psyc teacher ever. She gives you all the notes you need. There really isnt a need to even buy the book. The book may even confuse you at times. I loved her. She made class more than bareable. She even gives you several ways to earn points, in case your a bad test taker or whatever. Ufortunatley, her class fills up quickly and she doesnt
straight forward, take notes on powerpoints/listen in class and you'll get the A.
you will definitely get an A. dont buy the book. she's extremely helpful. attendance is important because you need to take notes and she doesnt post the slides on blackboard.
She is a great teacher. Her notes are extremelly helpful.
Great professor. DON'T buy the book. All of the information from the test comes from information in her powerpoint presentations.
Amazing professor. DON'T BUY THE BOOK. Save yourself 100 bucks and just go to class, once you're there, you won't mind it. She is sooo nice helpful, awesome, easy to understand, just great.
I love this woman. One of my favorite professors. She gives good notes, which are exactly what will be on the exam.
i LOVE this teacher!!! though she expects a lot from her stuents, she is soo nice and makes psychology really interesting with numerous stories!
I don't think as highly of GH as many of the people here. Her notes are straight-forward. Most of the time she fails to cover all the material that will be on the exam. Her exams are all right, you definitely need to study. The book helps, especially when she doesn't cover everything in class. I would mildly recommend.
She's ok, definitely easy, but she requires 10 hours of experiment participation OUTSIDE of class and I feel like we didn't learn as much b/c we constantly had to make time for stupid minute papers. Too picky on h/w guidelines but easy enough.
SHE was a fabulous teacher!
Her notes are very straight forward but you have to attend class, she doesn't post on Blackboard. I didn't even buy the textbook, I just studied the notes for exams and got A's on all 4 of them.
She's the best psych teacher! I highly recommend her, you don't need the book at all and she keeps you interested.Definitely an easy A.
I was nervous about being in a class so many students (we had about 70?) but she truly made the course enjoyable! this was one of my favorite classes! Tests could be hard, memorize EVERYTHING on the study guide she provides.
Wonderful professor! I loved going to her class! She's very understanding if you have to turn in something late. don't bother buying the book, just go to class and take notes. Make sure you do the study guide and you'll be fine. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Don't need the book. She is very straightforward. Show up to class, take notes, they are not posted online, exams are over notes taken in class, final is NOT cumulative. There is a once a week in class assignment she doesn't tell you when it is. 3-4 homework assignments. Nice lady, good professor.
The BEST professor I've Had at LUC. She is very understanding and extremely helpful. There are written assigments once a week and the exams are strictly from the notes. We never used the book but she doesn't post notes on blackboard so you have to go to class and take notes. Memorize the study guide and you should get an easy A. Highly recommend!!
She was pretty boring - her notes are straight from the book. however, this means you don't need to read the book yourself. so don't buy it. she gives study guides but they are vague. tests are all multiple choice.
Great Prof! Really energetic! Very flexible, understands not everyone is a great test taker. Offers plenty of other points to pad grade. Shows video clips to support lecture. No need for your textbook, don't read. Follow the study guide and take her practice quizzes on blackboard they are the same questions as the quiz!
Not as easy as this site makes her out to be, but relatively easy, especially for a science core. The difficulty comes from not only having to memorize every term out of three chapters for a test, but having to apply them to real situations. Tests are MC, very fun lectures, and she's VERY helpful.
Terrible class. The professor was boring, tests were difficult and cover 4-5 chapters at a time, no study guides. Dont take her class
This class was great. Lots of writing notes, I kind of wished she would post the slides on blackboard but still class wasn't hard at all, I hardly studied and never opened the book and I got a B+.
Great Professor, really teaches you a ton of material in 1 semester and you don't even notice. Tests can be kind of difficult, but not too bad. Overall pretty easy, you can basically study the night before and do well on the exams (there are 4 of them including the final). Also 4 HW, 12 RLQs (which make attendance kind of mandatory) and 10 exp hrs
This class was ridiculous because you literally have to to write down everything that she says. She refuses to post her powerpoints, and on top of that you have to do mandatory experiment hours. Her exams are difficult if you do not read the book, they require way too much memorizating. She goes through almsot the entire book in 16 weeks.
Noni is an amazing professor. Her lectures are packed with interesting information and everything is taught in fun and engaging way. Grading is really well done; 4 major tests overall, but there's TONS of extra assignments and points that more than make up for any bad test grade. She's absolutely fantastic.
I don't like to give bad ratings to professors. But this is ONE OF THE WORST Prof ever. Does not post notes on BB eventhough she just teaches from ppt. Exams are all MC. Very Hard. HAVE to memorize EACH WORD from the NOTES. LOTS of material for a CORE CLASS which is 100 level. Take her if you want, but there are far BETTER profs in psyc department.
Easiest class ever. Obviously participate in the research, easy points. Has in class questions to make sure you're paying attention, but unannounced makes attendance mandatory. Gives a study guide for the exam and if it's not on the guide, it's not on the exam! Easiest class ever and she makes it a blast. TAKE HER!
Good teacher you can definitely tell she knows what shes talking about. One bad thing is she doesn't tell you to read the book at all but some material on the test isn't just in the powerpoints from class, its also in the book so you have to read outside of class. Study guides are ridiculously long, she covers way too much material in a short time
She has a good personality and makes the lectures interesting. I looked forward to going to this class. You have to pay attention to what she says (not just what's on the slides) and then just study your notes for the tests. They're hard, but if you study a good amount, you'll do well. She gives points for assignments to help your grade.
I loved going to Noni's classes! She knows what she's talking about, is very witty, & gives lots of good examples. Real helpful & easy to talk to. Tests are very straightforward multiple choice, but she tests on EVERYTHING (readings, notes, & her own comments) & how well you payed attention- so really! pay! attention! Not a class for slacking off.
Awesome professor. She gives you study guides and they're all you basically need to study for the MC tests. Attendance isn't madatory, but you'll want to go if you like psychology. Great and easy!
She is a nice and helpful, however she makes the class much harder than it needs to be. The material covered in class is basic, her exams are not. She intentionally tries to make them difficult on easy subject matter. There are also many points in her lectures where if your paying attention you realize she doesn't really know what she is saying.
Hands down the best. Just study for your test two days in advance and make sure you take notes. She posts the study guides for each test at least a few days before, and if it isn't on the study guide, it's not on the test. She's hilarious as well
Very funny, she is a good teacher, just pay attention to what she tells you! Tests are hard but read the notes and know what is on the study guide and how to apply it and you will be fine. Enjoyed this class and her witty humor, two thumbs way wayyy up
Gaylord is a great professor! Her class is really interesting although it's all through powerpoints. She doesn't email the powerpoints so go to class. She has in class questions which count for participation, but they're really easy. Her tests are only on the material covered in powerpoints and they aren't too bad if you study. TAKE HER!!
great class- just show up, pay attention/take notes and you'll be sure to pass. i personally didn't use the text book at all, but for the more paranoid types, there are probably like one or two questions on tests regarding things just in the text book (what can i say, i walk on the wild side)
Great teacher. She is able to teach the material giving real-life examples and is very witty, making class fun. She truly has an interest in the subject. Reading is suggested, but you should be fine if you don't read....there's just a couple questions per test only in the book. If you go to class and pay attention, you should be fine and enjoy it.
She is such a sweet lady! Her class is very interesting and it's not difficult to understand the material. I got no lower than B's on her exams. There are 4 exams and you have to do experiments for credit. Go to class because she does random pop questions that get graded, but they are easy and you can talk about the answer with people around you.
Really good teacher and class.. Going to class helps clarify, and a big night of studying before exams will earn you a high B. Great teacher
Fantastic professor. Interesting, funny. Never skipped a class. Reading textbook along with attending class got me an A. Text is enjoyable read, class is fun to be in. Can't go wrong! Questions on exams aren't just term: definition. They're more involved. Scenario, this relates to this term type of questions.
MOST AMAZING PROFESSOR EVER. She will turn your life around i promise.
Great teacher. Just go to class, takes notes, learn said notes, take 4 tests, final non-cumulative. Easy stuff. Take her for an easy A and to learn basic psych stuff.
Great professor. She's really funny and teaches extremely well. Take her!
Great professor! Funny and knows a lot of information. It's an intro class so it can get a little boring especially if you have a psych background but she keeps it interesting. She randomly takes attendance through simply in class questions, but after a while you can guess when they will be. 4 exams that are fairly easy.
Great professor and definitely keeps things interesting, even though it some boring content! Show up to class because she does do random questions that count as a grade, and she doesn't put the notes online. The class does go by quickly though, and the four exams are easy as long as you do the study guides.
Dr. Harden is one of the best Psychology professors out there. She funny and the best part is she always try to connect her lectures to rel-life situations. Her tests are kinda difficult and time consuming, but it doesn't mean you can't get an A. My worst test was a B+, so as long as you take the time to study, you'll be fine.
Take her. You won't regret it. Easy A. You can't really skip lecture because she doesn't post her slides on SAKAI, but you won't want to miss it either. She's super entertaining and laid back. I enjoyed attending each class. The exams are straight forward. Study the night before and you'll do fine.
Dr. G is the best Professor I've had at Loyola. She doesn't lecture at you like some professors do, rather she tells stories and teaches in a way that really sticks with you. You have to try REALLY hard to fail this class. Take her, go to lecture, and see for yourself how awesome she is and just how easily you'll become interested.
Dr. G-H is arguably the best Psych Professors out there. I'm lucky enough that I managed to take her in back-to-back semesters. Unlike Psych 101 where there's a huge test, there's just quizzes every week in Psych 331. It makes it easier to study and you retain more info. The subject matter is very interesting and she relates it to real life
She really is as great as everyone says. Her lectures are very informative but also funny and relevant to real-life situations. You definitely won't want to miss class! Grade is made up of 4 tests, 12 in class open note quizzes, and participation in grad students' psych studies. Put in a little effort and you can do very well in this class!
Weekly quizzes instead of exams, which makes the course easier. The class could be boring. She just listed disorder-cause-treatment for EVERYTHING. I felt like the class was the same every day. Also, she assigns some papers and is a tough grader-I get As on papers in all of my other classes, but I got Bs with her. Still, best choice for Abnormal.
Disregard all other posts and listen to honest truth. I had a 29 ACT and 4.5 GPA in high school so compare yourself to me I also took ap psych. This class is very interesting and fun. Her class consists of 12/14 RLQs which are pop quizzes and 4 Tests Final noncumulative. You can get a maximum of 8 points extra credit. Look under this post formor
Easy class. Tests are easy and gives 14 in class group quizzes that free points (drops lowest 2). Doesn't go too in depth wit the material. If you need this class for the MCAT, take her. She goes into the EXACT amount of detail you need for it. Got a very comfortable A. Lectures are long and can be boring but overall good class.
Amazing psych professor! There's quizzes for each chapter and no tests. There's also a movie report at the end of the semester. Her class is mainly lectures but they are clear, informative, and interesting. She has relatable stories and is overall a fun professor.
The easiest psych class ever. She explains her powerpoint very clearly and puts up mini practice quizzes for exams on sakai. Sometimes the questions on the quizzes are on the exams! Her powerpoint are not online though so attendance is mandatory. You only really need the textbook to study, there are no assignments.
Dr. GH rocks. I'm embarrassed that I ended up with a B+ because this class is an easy A. But, you can tell that Dr. GH really knows her stuff; I have a lot of respect for her. I barely opened my textbook; she puts everything you need to know on her PowerPoints, but as a warning, she does not post them on Sakai. Would take her again, definitely.
One of my favorite professors. I took her for 101 and abnormal psychology. She's the reason I wanted to change my major to psychology. You learn a lot in the class. Weekly quizzes, and you have to study for them. They can be a little bit tricky sometimes. Very approachable, and her class is super interesting.
She is soon cool! I want to be her, but it's fine. She is very clear in her lectures and you should go to class because she does little in class open note quizzes that are easy and long as you take notes and go to class. Her tests aren't hard but are made a lot easier if you read the book. Does throw in some things not from the lecture.
Noni is greaaaaat! Her lectures are super interesting, she gives a lot of options for extra credit, and her tests are multiple choice. Great prof at Loyola!
Professor Harden is easily my favorite professor so far at Loyola! All of her lectures are extremely interesting and she's extremely funny! Attend classes for the notes and because she does RLQ's (which are literally one question open note, work with a partner, take 2 minutes, and easy 100%). Study from the study guide and always get 90+%
She is my favorite teacher so far. She presents the information very clearly and loves to give real life examples. Although her class was an hour long, it felt like 15 minutes because she makes it interesting. Her tests are not hard if you take good notes. She is also so nice and very easy to talk to. Im def. taking her again for abnormal psych!
I love Noni! Her teaching style is amazing and very unique. She relates the material to the real world with examples and that is what I liked about her. I went to her office hours once and she was super nice and was willing to help me. When I saw her on campus she immediately smiled and greeted me. Such a nice lady and the workload is manageable.
I loved taking her class, you definitely have to show up to understand the exams and she also gives out random assignments in class for credit. She is accessible outside of class and is willing to help students.
This professor is easily one of the best teachers I have ever had, especially at Loyola. She finds ways to relate difficult subject matter to real life scenarios, which makes everything so much easier to grasp. I can tell she is very knowledgeable about the material she is teaching and that is also reassuring.
This professor is one of the best teachers I've ever had in all my schooling. She's really interesting and funny. She gives lots of examples and really helps you understand the material. Go to class for these random SUPER tiny & SUPER easy assignments she does for grades. She gives study guides for her tests that are great & extra credit.
Overall great professor, and really good at lecturing but her tests are extremely hard yes she gives study guides but you have to study a lot of hours to get a good grade.
Dr. GH is the best professor I've ever had. her lectures are so interesting and fun, they always went by so fast. must take lots of notes as slides are not offered outside of class. there are 4 exams (all MC) and no cumulative final. she gives you study guides so studying for exams is really easy. just make sure you don't miss lectures and easy A
I love Dr. GH! Her lectures were really interesting, and she uses real-world examples and sometimes even does little demonstrations when explaining concepts. Her tests are multiple choice and they aren't that hard, but you're still going to have to study if you want to get an A. I'd highly recommend taking her! She's so sweet.
She is the best!!!! I took psych in high school and hated it, noni made me love psych. She sets very clear expectation on what you need to do to succeed in her class. She gives u a STUDY GUIDE and whatever not on the study guide you won't see on the exam. An easy A plus you will learn a lot. go to lecture cuz there's RLQ each 10 points.
