Makes even the most boring of psychology classes interesting. Uses real-life examples/stories from his person experience in treating patients. Extremely difficult tests (take home) and you have to do quite a lot of research/homework to complete them. Quizes every once in a while.

He's a really cool teacher. This class was fun and interesting. You'll learn a lot that you can probably use in real life situations; he gives good advice. He's funny too.. "The Squeeze Technique" HAHA! He's a good teacher. Has his Ph.D too which is a plus.

I did not care for him. The work is easy as long as you have a book, he let's you take open book tests, but he kind of picks on people. He thinks we're kids and have nothing else to do. He thinks he can "read" you and figure you out from your writing. I learned, but I would not take him again. Maybe it was just my personality though.

For 211 Learning, skip to the end of the Chapters and make them the core of you study notes; focus on concepts and application to experiments.

Dr Robert Yaronne is a hilarious lecturer. He knows how to engage students but he has a weird obsession with saying "Okay class starting say goodbye to your boyfriend/girlfriend" in his accent. He's pretty clean cut. The only reason I bought the textbook was because he allowed class to vote for an open book mid-term (of course we said yes). Easy.

He's European and he does have an accent but you can still understand him. He's funny. Doesn't give out any hw, only 1 or 2 assignments. You can use your notes on tests and quizzes so make sure to take notes.

If you are looking for a psychology professor he is the one. The lectures are really entertaining, he makes you laugh and applies real life situations to his lectures. You will never be bored in this class.

Dr. Robbie was great! Watch vids and take notes. Grading: few quizzes, mid term and final. All were easy! Show up to class zoom to learn and extra credit points at the end of session. Pushes deadlines back for students.

Really interesting professor. Hoppin and poppin is accurate. Always joking around. Assignments were easy and honestly not graded but they were helpful in a way. Quite an easy teacher with really funny illustrations. He wants you to understand and has silly stories and phrases that you will never forget. You definitely have to study!

He is not the worst professor I have had. But he needs to improve. I only missed five out of at least 55 assignments, and he gave me a "C". But I at least got 9 out of 10 on each quiz, and I would read the chapters that had us reflect on our chapters. He was apparently deciding not to give us a final, but days after he would claim he was wrong. Bad

I took Prof. Yaronne in Fall 2020 for Gen Ed and I wish I took him alongside my difficult classes because it was an EASY A. I didn't have to put in much effort nor participate as long as i passed them on time, but even then he is lenient with due dates. he gives weekly quiz& reflections & a discussion or vid app every 4-5 chaps. free online book.

He had very minimal assignments which isn't too bad but personally I need something more challenging in order to be engaged but that's a me thing. The quizzes were short and the discussion were easy to answer. So it's a pretty easy pass as long as you do the work.

Professor was very funny and open-minded when it came to discussing lectures. His life lessons are down to earth and relatable as we progressed through the textbook. Light reading, small quizzes, and discussion boards on weekly basis. No extra credit but easy A.

Easily one of my favorite teachers! His class is structured well and homework is clear and simple. Very fun teacher and I highly highly recommend you take him, you will not regret it. He really appreciates if you participate in his online classes so if you do take his class be sure to do that.

This is my second time (Psyc 101) taking Dr Robbie and I was not disappointed yet again. He is a hilarious professor that tries to keep everyone on task and uses participation by learning through real life events. There are occasional technical difficulties or miscommunication but overall he works with students because he wants everyone to pass!

Took his class back in 2019 and he's still one of my fav professors at SWC. His lectures are funny, be prepared for class discussion/group discussions. You mostly watch videos and take notes, you can find the textbook online for free. You can use your notes for the final exam and the quizzes are based off class lectures. Def would take again 4 fun.

He was really funny and made jokes here and there. He's a sweet old man and gives extra points to those who show their face on zoom, he made relatable examples out of the chapters we learned. But all his homework were just canvas quizzes every week and discussion boards. Very easy class. If you screen shot his slides and take notes, youll be fine.

Dr. Robby is such a nice and funny professor. Lectures were heavy on videos and ppt slides, but he explains for each. Extra credit for people who opens their camera. He definitely has experience with psychology and loves what he does. There's homework such as quiz, discussion, and summary. Take him, his class does not feel overwhelming.

The professor has a unique teaching style, but if you engage with it, the class is quite doable. The lectures are straightforward, and the textbook is helpful. For study prep, I found unstuck study and other resources like ChatGPT to be super useful.

The work itself was pretty easy and repetitive. He waited till the end of the semester to grade every single assignment so you don't really know what your grade is throughout the course.
