my first impression of him was that he was obnoxious...but after a few days...i had completely let go of my that idea. he tells you upfront that he expects effort and his tests reflect that. you must attend class, take notes, and (read) if you want an A. he knows the material very well, and is great at teaching us. very friendly and warm.

I hate this teacher. One, he has a massive ego for himself. When I went to ask for help he treated me like a child repeating and repeating until I just rolled my eyes at him. He is entertaining, but I am not studying for an IQ test so test me on the material not this is to this as this is to this. If you learn through book and lecture dont take him

Wow. That's all I have to say about this guy. Best teacher EVER. Blew my mind with psychology. He tries to scare you about his tests telling you it's super-mega hard but I always paid attention and it was fairly easy. Great guy, he's like a comedian. Reminds me of David Spade. Awesome lectures. Always gotta take notes.

After Dr Phillips' classes, most other professors will seem boring to U. He's funny, fun, intelligent, but my favorite "feature" of his is that he urges students to think critically. Throughout the class he throws out stimulating questions and keeps your mind racing. I wish other professors cared about their students’ brains as much as he does.

Tremendously exciting classes! In fact, many professors should take Dr. Phillips classes so they would learn how NOT to put us to sleep. We don’t need to go to school to listen to someone read slides to us. Dr. Phillips is very interested in the subject he teaches and has a lot to say about it. He also wants his students to learn how to THINK.

He's good because he knows how to keep you interested. However, he thinks he knows everything, and only his views are right. Too inflexible for a psychologist. He's bad because he's manipulative.

Took twice at FAU - Best teacher I have ever had. Attendance is not mandatory, but gives random thought papers to increase attendance. In the two classes I've taken with him, I've never missed a class because they're so fun. Tests are hard, but you actually learn from him. Don't take if you're looking for an easy A - take if you want to learn.

Really good teacher, he knows what he's doing and will answer any question. However he "doesn't care whether you show up or do good in the class" Make sure you takes notes, he puts up an outline and they will help you. The tests are hard but he does a curve.

Steve is one of the best teachers I've ever encountered in my academic career. He makes the material interesting and funny. You have to take good notes in order to pass his class. His tests are mostly based off of his lecture notes. The tests aren't easy but if you study hard and pay attention in class, you will definitely pass.

Dr. Phillips hes very funny you will laugh a lot in his class but his test are so difficult and the only reason why I pass this class was because this was my elective other than that I dont recommend anybody to take us class he is tough and ruthless and his test has nothing to do with the lectures all he gives is just an outline thats not enough

I had to drop this class because in the first place this professor used disgusting language, inappropriate for college (seemed like he was at a soccer field and felt like he was drunk, or had several drinks the night before ), if you are that type of person and you like to be entertained, then take him.. his language was discussing and aggressive.

Steve is a great professor. If you want to learn and get the most out of Psych you should take his class. Very opinionated but if you can look past that(not too hard to do) you will be fine. Go to class, take notes, study(from the book too), do extra credit and you'll end with an A or B.
