Amazing teacher and is extremely helpful! A lot of fun whole still learning a lot. Definitely take hhis class if you can! He understands that it is a Gen ed for some people but still teaches amount for a psych major. He is awesome!
He is a great teacher! He gives you all of the powerpoints and notes and tells you exactly what is going to be on the tests. If you show up to class you are sure to get an A! Also he's very fun and helpful!
Had Shawn for Theories; LOVED EVERY SECOND. He's the first professor that I actually miss, & I'm sad the class ended. There are too many good things about him to fit in this box. Just know that he is awesome/understanding/easy/fun/kind/funny, and a great teacher! No stress in his class; tests are easy; just show up and have fun! You'll love him! :)
This Teacher is the most amazing teacher I have ever had! He is always there to help you! His class is an EASY A! I have taken him for GEN PSYCH and Theories of Personality and Development! He is one of the most inspiring, down to heart, kind man you have ever met! This Teacher is the greatest teacher I have ever had! A MUST HAVE TEACHER!FUN CLASS!
This class is an EASY A! He is an amazing teacher who is always there to help. My favorite class I have ever taken. He makes class FUN and go by fast! A kind, intelligent, genuine man. Down to earth! Love his stories and how he connects them to the class! BEST TEACHER I HAVE EVER HAD IN THE 15 YEARS I HAVE BEEN IN SCHOOL!!!! MUST TAKE TEACHER!!!!
He is a great teacher. He makes class fun just listen on class and you will be good.
I absolutely love this teacher! I took him for Gen. Psych and Theories of Personality and have gotten easy A's in both classes! He is extremely helpful and funny and always gives extra credit on tests. Definitely my favorite teacher so far! Sad I can't have him for more classes.
One of the nicest men I've ever met and he is truly a wonderful teacher. He has such a fun personality and he's always cracking funny jokes. I have him now for Theories of Personality & Development and I thoroughly enjoy it. He's fantastic. Take him!!! <3
If you've ever watched the movie Freedom Writers, you'd see that Shawn Jarmuz is very similar to Hilary Swank's character in the sense that he cares about his students, he cares about children and their development, and he cares about the importance of this subject. He is truly inspiring and awesome. I simply adore this professor.
Not a fan of his pop quizzes. They aren't easy and he will give you them without even covering the material first. He also strongly hints it will be one day and give them a class period before the day he hints at. Be prepared to read the text book. But besides that he's a good guy and the class is ok. There is a paper and group presentation.
Fantastic professor. He's really passionate about what he teaches and he really cares for his students as individuals. He is very funny and fun and makes class a great experience. I learned so much from this wonderful man.
My favorite teacher at Lewis! Shawn Jarmuz genuinely cares about his students, and he makes class so much fun. I highly recommend him. He's funny and super nice! Yes, you should read the book to pass the quizzes, but nothing is a surprise. I'm definitely gonna miss this class!
Great teacher with a great teaching style. Makes content easy to understand and overall makes the class a lot more fun and interesting. Totally recommend him over other professors at Lewis.
Shawn is an amazing professor. He takes time to make sure you actually learn the material. The quizzes and tests are easy because he actually teaches you what you need to know. Great teacher, makes class fun. Would definitely recommend!
Such an amazing teacher. He really understood my difficulties with classes sometimes and accommodated to what I needed. I wish I would have taken him for Gen Psych! Must take Theories with him!
Shawns a great guy! He genuinely cares for students, wants them to actually know the material as opposed to just memorizing it, and is really fun in class. He explains things very well in class. He usually hints at upcoming pop quizzes They aren't hard as long as you pay attention in class. Would definitely take him again! He makes class enjoyable!
Shawn is a great teacher, he cares about every one of his students, and makes it easy to understand the material
One of the best professors that I have ever had. The reason I got such a good grade was not because the class was easy but because he truly was born to teach. He makes everything very easy to understand and I have used many of his teachings in further classes and life lessons. TAKE HIM!!
Shawn is a great teacher. He really cares about his students and makes sure that they understand the material covered. He is very smart and knows his psychology. He is also willing to help you outside of the classroom in anyway he can. He is always in a good mood and that reflects in the classroom. I would recommend him to anyone!
Shawn is honestly my favorite professor. His class is somewhat challenging but he makes its crystal clear to understand. He tries to get the entire class engaged even if you attempt to hide in the back of the class. Not only is he an amazing teacher but he connects with his students on a personal level. Shawn really puts his students needs first.
My favorite professor out of all the classes I have taken at Lewis. Whether you are a psych major or not he makes the material interesting and fun. Class is not hard. Tests are not hard. Straightforward.
Shawn is awesome and he'll definitely work with you with whatever you need. He's a really great teacher, I just hate psychology., personally.
Shawn is pretty cool. He almost seems too nice... if you come to class and pay attention youll get a good grade.
Great guy.
Great professor, he really knows his stuff. He loves what he does too and is very good with the students. He relates to us when at the same time being great at presenting the material. I Am learning a lot in this class, he makes the classes and lectures interesting and people actually like getting involved. I Highly recommend him.
Shawn is a really cool professor. He is really understanding and fun to have as a professor. Shawn's teaching methods are easy to understand , but you will have to read the book. Then come in to ready to go over what you have read. He also puts up powerpoints so you can get a summary of the chapter you have read.
Tests are easy is studying is done. Reading is essential for this class. Also participating goes a long way. He is super fun and easy to talk to.
His lectures are very engaging. I loved coming to his class. he gets everyone involved making the class much more fun. he's very good at making sure everyone understands the material. The material was really interesting. overall the class is very easy going, if you pay attention and re-read your notes you'll be able to pass the class easily.
He's super funny. Expects a lot out of you as a person so if you get done what you need to for class, it's a good class to take.
Great teacher who is very inspirational. Can be a bit forgetful at times when it comes to posting up lecture content online but it's not a huge deal.
My favorite professor at Lewis! He's super nice and his goal is for every student to do well. He gets discouraged when students don't do well on tests and will start to give quizzes. I don't really read the book, but I show up to every lecture and am getting an A. GO TO THE OPTIONAL REVIEW SESSIONS--he literally gives you all the info for the test.
good guy
Professor Jarmuz was very interactive, and gave great examples when it came to explaining topics taught in the book. It really helped with remembering what was taught in the chapter. His teaching styles fits with every students learning style.
He is an amazing teacher! He loves M&M's! If you are having a hard time in the class, he would take his time out to help you.
He's a really cool teacher. He is really good at actually teaching people what they need to know while being the personable person he is. One of the best teachers I've had here.
Shawn is easily one of the best teachers I've had in my entire life. Takes great pride in not only his work and lectures, but his students when they participate. If you bring fresh ideas and debates to the class, expect exhilarating discussion. Loves M&M's. Use them to bribe him for open-notes quizzes.
Shawn is the BEST teacher I've had in my whole life. He teaches you everything you need to know for the class. His lectures are presented in power point form and they aren't the typical boring lectures, he makes the class fun. This is the only class ever that I've ever felt that the teacher cared about the student and their successfulness.
Shawn was an amazing professor! He made a class about learning rather than memorizing and he really wanted to inspire us to make positive changes to our lives .
Shawn is a very down to earth guy. He is very clear about what will be on the test. He is very passionate about making sure you learn the material and not just memorize it. Very funny which makes class enjoyable
All you need to do is go to class and go to the review session
He is super fun and funny. He relates things back to the students. He reviews before every class and loves his job!
easy class, interesting lectures
The class is very clear cut, as long as you pay attention during lectures, go to class, and go to the review sessions you will pass with zero problems. He is an extremely nice teacher, and he takes the student-teacher relationship seriously.
He's a great teacher! Recommend him to all my peers!
I learned a lot and would recommend this class.
Shawn is definitely one of the best professors I have ever had - he makes the material clear and easy to digest, and memorable which helped me to retain it. In most college classes it's simply a game of memorizing things for the test and then forgetting them, but that's not the case in here. You'll love this class if you take it with prof. Jarmuz
Shawn is by far one of my favorite teachers at Lewis, and I really hope I am lucky enough to have him again in a future class! not every class is the same, it isn't boring. He greatly involves the class and makes class enjoyable and memorable!
Shawn tells you exactly what is going to be on the tests. You should definitely go to the optional review sessions. He isn't always available because he's so busy with his other jobs, but this class is an easy A.
Great guy. Tons of energy. Go to all of the optional review sessions, you will regret not going
Shawn is certainly one of the best professors I have had here. Although he makes the class easy for his students, he also makes it fun and easy to learn the subject. Would definitely recommend taking him.
Shawn is a great teacher and I would definitely recommend taking his class. The quizzes and tests are easy and you learn a lot in his class. He is really funny and is respected by his students. One of the best classes I have taken.
Shawn is an awesome professor. He is super down to earth and relates to all of his students. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. His Theories of Personality class is super interesting and Shawn's teaching methods are great! Awesome teacher, great guy, and I highly recommend this class!
Shawn is the best! Not only did he patiently deal with our group shenanigans, he sometimes joins in on the fun. He makes the material connect to YOUR life and is always there if you need anything. All around great guy and he makes you look forward to going to class each day.
Shawn always made his lectures interesting! I always looked forward to going to this class. He does a great job preparing you for tests and quizzes too. He never forces you to participate, although he does encourage it. He also does check attendance by making people sign in.
Shawn is a great professor, would definitely recommend to take gen psych with him. He is always there to help, he is kind and knows how to make a person's day. He is a great professor! Go to class, pay attention the notes you take are exactly what the tests and quizzes will be about. If you do this you will pass the class!(:
He's super easy and tells you exactly what is going to be on every quizexam. Most quizes are open notebook. Easy A.
Shawn's a very good teacher. His class is the only class I didn't miss at all. He explains everything really well, very easy to understand. His quizzes and tests aren't bad at all, as long as you keep up with the readings and show up to the review days. Never really been into psych until I took his class. He made it interesting and fun!
Great class and a great teacher! Have to take him for a class
Theories was great and I enjoyed attending this class. Shawn is a great guy and a wonderful teacher.
Shawn is super funny and makes the class fun. It is really easy and the tests are clear cut.
Theories was a great class and Shawn is a really cool teacher. Tests and quizzes were super easy and I learned a lot in this class.
I found this class very helpful. He cares for his students and wants them to actually learn and not memorize concepts. He makes concepts easy to understand. Take him if you can.
Shawn is great! He is a good professor and his class in not hard at all! seriously recommend his class.
He is great!!!
Take him. No regrets!
Great guy. He really cares about what he is teaching overall. He focuses on the life lesson and not the minor details, memorizing the little things.
Take him.
Shawn is an excellent teacher and truly cares about his students. Theories was very interesting and I had fun in class everyday.
Shawn is a great teacher and I would definitely take his class again.
Theories was so much fun! Shawn explains every topic with great detail and makes sure you remember the material.
I am really going to miss this class. It was so much fun and I learned a lot!
Shawn is everyone's favorite teacher because he makes coming to class fun. You learn a lot and the class material is really easy.
Definitely take
Shawn was one of the few professors who I really enjoyed coming to class for just because the professor was awesome.
Honestly, it was a great professor. Well-spoken and had ways of teaching that made the material stick.
Great professor. I wouldn't mind taking him again. Honestly, why couldn't he teach more classes!!!
I really liked his class. I always looked forward to it.
I've had Shawn for two semesters now and I specially chose him because he's great! There isn't a lot of homework but of course like any other class you do have to read. Sometimes there are open note quizzes, sometimes partner quizzes, and for exams he goes over it during a study session. Anyone who takes Shawn loves him and his lectures are great!
He is a really great professor! Full of energy! He's not the type of professor that stands at the front and just reads a screen, he moves around the room. Interesting class activities. He likes to joke around. Trust me one of the best professors to take this class with!
This teacher is AMAZING! I would recommend everyone who is willing to learn to take any of his course. He relates a lot back to us and is always willing to help a student in need. If you take M&M's to class he will be your bestfriend forever. I would recommend to go to his review sessions because he covers a lot of the unknowns that are in the test
Shawn is an amazing teacher! He makes learning psychology very fun and easy. I am retaining the things he is teaching us. My class gets along great and we have very good discussions. If you go to his optional test reviews you will get above a 90% on the test. Would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone needed to take psychology!
The only class I looked forward to going to. Easy to talk to and makes class fun.
He makes psych so much fun and very interesting to learn and very easy to understand. overall very amazing guy highly recommend! Also loves M&Ms and anyone who gives him some if you didn't know
Shawn is a great professor, we have great discussions in class and if you don't understand something he will make sure that you do. Overall he is a fun teacher and the things that we learn are of interests. this is probably the only class i look froward to attending, if you plan on taking his class take m&m's, those are his favorite.
Shawn is unbelievably passionate about what he does that no matter who you are he will capture your attention! He challenges his students to think for themselves and respects each individuale for who they are! When it comes to tests and quizzes you either have been paying attention in class or not. Tests are what you talk about in class not random!
I cannot say enough good things about Shawn. He is easily one of the greatest professors/teachers I've ever had. He keeps class interesting while making sure you understand the content. You can tell how much he genuinely cares about all his students and wants us to succeed. Can't wait to take him again!
Shawn is the best professor I've had a Lewis. You can tell he genuinely cares about his students. He loves what he does and he makes the class interesting. Go to the review sessions and you'll be golden. Would definitely take him again.
Best teacher! Knows everything about psychology. He is the man to take! Don't miss out on him.
He is very good at explaining the examples in powerpoints.
Professor Jarmuz is an awesome teacher! His class lectures and discussion are amazing and he is super helpful (he'll even stay after class to go over notes or paper) Very funny! Does a great job with using examples and breaking info down. Wish I could take him for all my classes!!
Shawn is extremely passionate about what he does. His lectures are straight forward and if you pay attention and go to review sessions you are bound to get an A. I loved his class, he is a great professor and overall person!
Great teacher. The class will come easy to you if you participate and take some notes. Fun class.
Shawn is so helpful in all aspects. He makes Gen Psyh interesting for the entire class, even the ones who aren't psych majors! He is always helpful and very respectful to his students. He's super funny! Would definitely take him for sure!!!!!! :)
Shawn is a great professor. Really helpful. Prepares students for exams. We always had awesome discussions and he makes class fun!
Shawn is an average teacher, I just don't like how he is always saying that he is the best teacher and I find it very annoying. He just reads off of power points and doesn't always explain, not that they often need explaining but not everyone will always know what he is talking about. By the way, make sure to go the optional study sessions.
Shawn is an amazing man, he is a great teacher and person and I would recommend him to anyone honestly, I admire his teaching skills and work ethic
Shawn jarmuz is absolutely the best professor at lewis!! His lectures are def interesting and never boring. He's super respectful, caring and understanding. his class is fun and easy. only homework you have is one paper and one group project and his exams are easy af . P.S he loves M&Ms bring him some for extra credit lol
If you show up and download his power points you will pass. He holds optional review classes before the test day, if you show up, he pretty much reads the test off to you and gives you a study guide
He's an amazing professor that takes the time to get to know his students. He is always open to new ideas and give amazing lectures. i'm taking him again for another class for sure.
By far my favorite class and professor at Lewis. So funny, down to earth, and relatable. MAKE SURE YOU READ! He doesn't ask for much except that you read the material he assigns. Tests are easy, he does a lot of games with the class, lectures are mainly PowerPoint, and the study sessions are something you should go to when he has them.
He was an excellent teacher, I only wish I took him for General Psych. The class never really dragged. Also, M&Ms are his weakness, but not a bribe.
Shawn does a great job teaching! He is so personable and friendly! He actually keeps the class entertaining and it doesn't feel like an hour when you are in class. Time goes by quickly because your actually having a good time. He does a good job at reviewing the material, and his tests aren't bad ate all. I would highly recommend him to everyone!
Shawn was awesome! He truly cared about his students and the material he taught. His power points are so easy to understand, and he offers review sessions before every test. He has some awesome stories and is really funny. He was one of my favorite professors!
Shawn is great! He knows what he is doing and makes the class easy! He is a very caring and respected guy. He cares about you and understands you! Honestly, you can trust him.
His lectures make you interested in the subject and he gives relevant examples. Really nice but if you don't participate at all you'll feel his wrath!
Shawn is by far the best professor at Lewis. I would recommend anyone to take his class. He makes class fun and exciting and you'll actually want to show up everyday. He is very understanding and actually cares about his students. I wish he taught more classes so I could take him again. Definitely take either of his classes!!!!!
Greatest teacher I've had so far. He makes you want to go to class and makes sure you know the material. Offers review sessions which I recommend going to because they are lifesavers. He's an amazing professor. I wish he taught more classes
Very caring and fun person. He really is trying to make the class enjoyable, while informative. Gives you a lot of answers for tests and quizzes when the class participates. On review days, he tells you pretty much every question on the test with answers. Definitely recommend him!
Amazing teacher all around. He makes class interesting and not too hard. He makes you want to come to class. He is funny and he does not just read slides. He is very student-oriented and involved. Easy to reach outside class. Very understanding and flexible. Makes sure you are prepared for tests and does not assign homework. Very lenient grader.
He genuinely cares about his students and is very understanding. You can tell that he loves what he does, and I felt like he was a friend rather than just being my professor. He never really gives homework, his lectures are extremely interesting, and he gives you study guides that literally have the test questions on them. He is easily my favorite!
Shawn has by far been my favorite professor so far while attending Lewis. He genuinely cares so much for his student's and always made Psychology class a class I would look forward to! His lectures are very easy to understand and "not mandatory" review sessions for a test are your friend ;) HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
I cannot stress how much I enjoyed this class. There's a lot of material covered, but Shawn makes it easy to understand by providing plenty of examples. He's a comedian and that's what makes his class so laid back. He connects well with his students and creates a fun, learning environment. I have a very high respect for him as a teacher and friend.
I loved going to Sean's class every day, he made it fun and everyone was always laughing in his class. He is a great teacher and I highly reccomend taking his class. He still remembers mostly all of his students and is a great person! Best prof I've had at Lewis. He teaches in a way that everyone can grasp the concept and get a good understanding.
He is an easy teacher, it's a quick pass class. However, he is very loud and tries to be funny. He interjected in my conversations with other's before class started. If he gets the hint that you do not think he is funny, then he will bother until you fake laugh. But if you like to dose off and not pay attention you will be fine.
Shawn is honestly the best teacher I've ever had at school. Shawn cares about the material and his students. He will go out of his way to make sure you are doing alright outside of his class. Material is super interesting. I would never take anyone else for a psych class. Phenominal.
This teacher has to be my favorite at lewis so far. He delves deep into topics that really matter and tries his best to leave an impression on students. He takes an approach to teaching unlike any teacher I have ever had. He will walk around to room and actually interact with you through out the lecture and make jokes to keep you engaged.
Definitely the best professor I've had here at Lewis. His lectures are clear & easy to understand as he relates back to his life, along with the getting the class to participate as well. His tests are really easy if you show up & engage in the class. That goes for his assignments, too. His teaching style is different from others but it is great.
Hes super nice and understanding, if you have any questions about something he rather discuss and make sure you understand it than just go back and finish the lecture. Hes a great teacher and has a great sense of humor!
He is the best professor I have ever had. He really cares about each individual student and does not give a ton of work, because he understands how busy college students are.
-really cares about his students, great person in general, "optional review session" are basically the test - very kind and happy always - packers fan
Sean is an amazing teacher! He makes learning enjoyable and I would if I could take another course with this same instructor. As long as you pay attention in class, participate, and take notes you should be good. I enjoyed this class very much!
Awesome and fun class, I never missed because the class was actually fun and entertaining. Basic psych material, it's an easy A if you show up and get the notes!! Would take Shawn again, he's hilarious with a kind heart!
Best teacher I've ever taken, make sure you read and class will be fun and enjoyable. Cares about students well-being and achievement. If you have a chance take him!!!
Shawn is a phenomenal professor! He really pushed us past our limits, but did so in a way that didn't make the course text difficult. His teaching is very straightforward and always clarifies if needed. Class is always fun, participation makes a big difference. He's approachable and always has the students' best interest in mind.
He truly cares about his students and wants them to learn and succeed. He makes class more enjoyable and I actually looked forward to coming to class each day. He brings a happy, positive mood each day to class and makes lectures fun! I truly 100% recommend taking him for any class. Easy class if you study and read the book.
The best professor I have ever taken. You can talk to him if you have any problems, he cares about his students, and gives amazing lectures. TAKE HIM!!
Hes an excellent professor ! Definetley would take again if my major allowed it but every class was engaging and super fun. I feel like I took a lot away and learned so much in an interactive way. One of the best professors at Lewis and made psych a worthwhile.
One of the best professors I've taken.
Enthusiastic and fun all the time.
Very funny and actually cares about students.
Literally the best human Ive ever met. Makes his class so easy for us and has review days before the exam where he gives us basically all the answers to every question on there. Teaches in a way youll understand the information and absorb it forever.
Good teacher not hard
He is a great teacher. I loved having him.
Shawn was an awesome and super nice professor!! I would definitely recommend anybody to take him. His class was interesting and fun!
Really great teacher definitely my favorite teacher i have had. you can go talk to him if you ever need to and he will stay and chat if you need him. really easy and fun teacher i would definitely take him again.
BEST PROFESSOR I HAVE HAD AT LEWIS. Super easy to talk to and explain content.
He was one of my favorite teachers!
It was always enjoyable being in his class. He always brought so much joy to the classroom.
This professor was great. I wanted to pick more good words like hilarious, caring, amazing lectures, and other good words but it would not let me. If you take his class, youre in for a treat bc this is probably the best class that I have ever taken in a long time. I really wish Shawn was an Aviation Professor so I can have him again. Thanks Shawn!
Shawn is a very fun professor!! He makes lecture interesting. Just make sure to always participate and be prepared for class. Never gives homework. Recommend taking him for Gen Pysch!
Loved Shawn he was such a easy going high spirited teacher. I thought he was hilarious. He takes time to focus on sections that effect our daily lives and is passionate about helping students. He does give pop quizzes so if youre not reading you may be screwed. But a lot of the time they are super easy.
Totally recommend taking this professor for any psych class he makes class very fun
Highly recommended! Take this class because he makes sure his students learn.
Hes an awesome teacher that cares about his students the same way chance loves Chicago!
Shawn is the best teacher I have not only had in college, but my whole life. He is genuine, he cares immensely for not only his students, but everyone around campus. You can tell he loves what he does and is passionate about the subject material. I was lucky enough to have him for both gen psych and theories. TAKE HIM!!!
Shawn is an amazing teacher that wants whats best for his students. He makes the class enjoyable and relates it to the real world. The only thing that can be difficult is the pop quizzes he gives, but as long as you do the reading youll be fine. He gives review days before tests so you know what to study and will even give test answers sometimes.
Great professor! He made the class extremely easy and was able to make it make sense for us. Very kind-hearted and funny guy. Highly recommend.
Shawn genuinely cares for his students and uses his personal experience and real-life examples to make the class more applicable. As long as you show up, and participate in the class, you'll pass with an A.
Shawn is by far the best professor I've ever had. I learned so much, and Im grateful I took him. I didn't get lower than an A on any quiz, test, or project/ paper. All you have to do is show up to class go over the material and you will do great. Some pop quizzes, but he'll hint to you what it will be about. He cares about his students. TAKE HIM!!
I loved taking Shawn's class and I definitely will be taking him again for other psych electives. His class is extremely interactive, lectures don't feel like lectures, but rather like conversations. Best psych professor at Lewis.
Shawn is an awesome professor! He truly cares about his students and wants to ensure that everyone feels comfortable. He strongly encourages student participation and enjoys engaging in class discussions. He is hilarious and makes himself incredibly relatable and accessible to the students. Take his classes! You won't regret it. He's a blast!!
Shawn was an amazing professor, he made learning fun even through the tough times with hybrid learning. He truly cares about his students, on top of this you learn a lot in his class. I would definitely recommend taking any of his courses!
Best professor I have ever had, you can tell he really cares about his students and wants to do everything in his power to make sure they learn and get a good education. Great structure to the class, 100% reccommend!
Professor Jarmuz has been one of my favorite teachers at Lewis. He has been really understanding, and has been there for his students, especially during the pandemic. He allows you to drop your lowest test grade if you take the final, however if your grades are high enough you don't have to take the final. There are 2 small papers as well. TAKE HIM
A great professor, he uses his life experiences in the field of psychology to ensure that EVERY student has an understanding of the material. Shawn values understanding and class discussion way more than rushing through a powerpoint. Shawn is very knowledgeable and approachable. I would definitely take one of his courses again!
Best professor I have ever had and I don't even make reviews for rate my professor. Super great class and you learn a lot, great conversation and if you pay attention and put the effort in you will do great. Overall the best teacher I've had and super funny. Learn some life lessons too by using psychology to my advantage.
Great professor with really good lectures. He made the class very interesting and engaging. Participation is very important. I would definitely take it again.
Wonderful guy, super understanding and wants to see all of his students succeed! You won't regret taking his class!
Professor Jarmuz is my favorite professor at Lewis! He makes the class and lectures so much more fun and enjoyable!
in order to succeed in this class, make sure that you are showing up in lectures because you can learn more from the discussions than the lecture slides that he posts. very funny and upbeat teacher!
Very encouraging and invested in what he teaches. He passionate about what he teaches so it makes you want to learn more.
This was the best class I have taken. He is such a great person and actually helped me to learn. I have taken psych classes before and thought they were really tough, but the way he teaches made me excited to go to class.
He actually cares about students' learning and engagement. He makes sure that you aren't just learning to pass a test but learning something useful you can use in everyday life. Lectures are discussion-based, so the more people participate the more interesting class will be. Best teacher I've had so far at this school.
If you can, TAKE him for any class you can. Seriously one of the best teachers you will ever take. He wants you to learn the material not just to memorize, and by doing so, I remembered a whole lot more. It would be VERY challenging for you to fail any of his test/class because his lectures are so engaging. He is also very personable. TAKE HIM!!
If I were majoring in Psych I would take Jarmuz as much as possible. He makes class fun and interesting. He is easy going, and you would have to put effort in to fail the class. We had two papers and three exams, not including the final. He drops your lowest test grade. I would 100% recommend him.
