Good teaching style. Stats is not an easy class and he grades you on what you actually score. Study the study guide questions and learn the vocab (he doesn't stress that enough..but 70% of test is understanding the vocab). If you actually read the book, do study guide and come to class (online questions help also) you can get an A or B fairly easy.

I think Stoffey is a decent enough professor. The problem is his attendance policy, He lets you miss 2 classes, any more and he drops you a full letter grade. He does let you "Band" (not bump) your grade up so ask him about that, but the attendance policy killed me and kept me from an A. Boring Lectures, Nice Guy

He is very helpful, when you're in class and asks a question he will explain it very well and always tries his best to help students in MindTap and in-class work. Overall, he makes class fun and doesn't drag the class time and make it boring. He cares about his students and you can tell he wants to see everyone pass with a good grade.

I was terrified to take a college statistics class. Dr. Stoffey is absolutely wonderful. He makes sure that if you put effort into the class, you will do well. I could not ask for a more articulate and caring professor. He understands statistics and how to teach them to people who do not.

Wonderful professor and a better person. He does everything in his power to see that we succeed as people, not just as students. A great help in and out of the classroom. Extremely understanding. I suggest taking a Stoffey class every semester.

Awesome!! Always willing to help and very understanding. He often slowed down lectures if someone was confused and is very passionate about what he teaches! Uses Cengage + in-person classes which increases the coursework a lot -- but can also pad the grade and reinforces material if you struggle with math. Almost impossible to not pass imo

Dr. Stoffey is absolutely amazing! This was my first semester at KU and I had him for 200 and 220, both of which I feel I learned a lot and did well in. Very lecture heavy, but he is super passionate about his work. While he may try to persuade you to consider joining I/O he wants what's best for all of his students futures.

Loved Dr. Stoffey, made a class with difficult concepts a lot easier with the way the grades are weighted. Even if you bomb the exams you can still pass if you do all the homework and participate in class. He loves when you ask questions and is happy to explain the content in more depth if you need.

I had Dr. R for psy 200 stats and behavior. He was a very good teacher. I loved his train ringtone for his phone. He gave good feedback. Always emails back, the test were in person but on the computer, he let us use a flash card with the formulas. 10/10 would recommend. Overall a very nice person and if he made a mistake he would make it up to you.

Most of your grade is based on the homework. Professor Stoffey is very helpful and tried to make the class fun. As long as you complete the homework you will get at least a B. Attendance is taken every class. Be prepared to spend a lot of time on the homework, but the homework will help you get ready for the exams.

Highly recommend taking classes with him! He is super nice, student success-oriented, and wants all of his students to do the best they can. He also is very helpful with things that follow after college as he wants his students to succeed and be set up for the "real world". Best proff at Kutztown! Take as many classes with him as possible!

Interacts with the class often, student focused, willing to help students when they ask, gives a lot of easy points. Attendance is needed as much of the assigned homework centers around watching videos in-class and taking brief notes. Exam questions are sometimes difficult to read due to confusing wording. Uses textbook.

Overall he's a very good professor and he's very good if your looking for someone to discuss psychology

Runs the whole course through MindTap, which I didn't mind. Moves fast so you have to go to class to understand what is going on. He's a little goofy & unaware at times but he has the best intentions. Tries his best to encourage his students. He is really into math. Freaks out if you use your phone in class though, so maybe keep that in mind.

Stoffey is my favorite professor I've had at Kutztown. He is great at relating with the students and adds humanity back to the classroom. He doesn't drone on like many professors and relates the course content to the real world. It's important not to miss class, you can get by on class notes alone, but I recommend reviewing the powerpoints and book
