I took his class before, and I was very impressed. His lectures are fun, and all of his work are easy if you follow along. Also, when you first meet him... you'll think he's some crazy Harley-Davidson driving guy but he's actually beyond cool. I'm a lazy student and managed to obtain an 'A' from his class.

Dr. Frei is a good professor that is willing to work with any students willing to come to him for help. Don't be afraid to come to him about your grade, if you don't understand, life after college, etc. Take notes and you're sure to do well on midterm and final.

Professor Frei is an inspirational and funny professor. But his class is no cakewalk, but manageable. 4 exams, 1 paper, 1 presentation (lowest 2 dropped). His lectures are pivotal to passing. I didnt read the textbook at all and did pretty good because of the lectures. Very approachable and friendly. I got a B because I slacked but an A is doable.

Skip class? You won't pass.

Dr. Frei is by far my favorite professor I've had over the past 3 semesters at CCP! He is an amazing lecturer and really keeps the students engaged. YOU HAVE TO ATTEND ALL LECTURES, even though he doesn't take attendance. The syllabus has a breakdown of the 4 tests and a study guide for each test, go through that and you have a guaranteed A.

He gives a lot of test to which he calls quizzes. Very off topic in class and not well groomed. Wouldnt recommend him to anyone for psychology101. Very hard work and demanding.

His lectures are THE BEST. He makes learning so relatable that it's easy to learn from his personal anecdotes. He's really chill and his grading outline is more than fair. He is gives insightful feedback and is readily available to help. His exams are a little tough because you need to really understand the material to do well. Take his class!!

Dr. Frei was the best, we got so much field-like experience and he was very helpful through a challenging course. The way he broke everything down step by step was great, his lectures were interesting, he was clear on assignments, would go over quiz material in class. There was a midterm and final (both pretty easy if you pay attention at all)

Professor Frei was a great teacher for a online class. If you are not sure about taking him online DO IT. It was a clear guide to tests and assignments. the test were not hard at all and you literally get to use the textbook. The videos he has you watch are very interesting to the point I had my friends watching it. Great teacher and fair grader.

Professor Frei made the classroom a very comfortable environment it, it was a place where no one was scared to ask a question. A lot of the assignments giving in his class were not hard and had to do with stuff we reviewed in class. Overall he was a great teacher and really cared about what he was teaching.

I would definitely take this professor again. He was very clear about all the reading we had to do but was very nice about late assignments and easy to access outside of class (even during 12am hours lol). He's a very funny person and his grading rubric is nice for the most part. Just do the work and readings and you'll pass the class.

Professor Frei makes this class super engaging. Definitely attend all lectures, as they're insightful and interactive. The grading is fair, and unstuck study was a big help for study prep. Overall, a great professor who cares about student learning.

I took Dr. Frei's online Psych101 course over a condensed summer semester. Although it was asynchronous, he was available for any questions and answered quickly. The class' grading system & expectations were clear, and it was a very manageable workload. Interesting course overall!
