Shes sweet and funny which makes her hard not to like. However, her teaching style (if she really has one) is extremely hard to follow. Exams are application which she fails to prepare you for. I found the material interesting but still didn't do well on exams. Best bet is to read the chapters and ask her to clarify specific questions you have.

This professor does new things every semester; because of this, her handouts and class project are very unorganized and stressful. Barely pass the tests (challenging), complete your final project, and attend class in order to get a grade of B- or higher. The class is interesting and intrinsically rewarding, but VERY frustrating and a GPA sink.

Very sweet lady who means well for her students. If you take her expect to attend all of her extra credit opportunities because her class is very hard for a 100 level G3.

Professor Woo is bordering on unprofessional. She told me that if my anxiety is so bad that I shouldn't be in college in the first place. And then forced me to drop her class. I will never take her classes again.

She makes you work for your grade. You have to do the readings to do well on the quizzes and the exams. It's not an easy class but you learn a lot

I had her for Personality Theory and she is my advisor. She is a wonderful advisor but in class she is very scattered and unorganized. The projects were last minute and unclear. The tests are hard but she grades on an insane curve so a D will turn into a B- (thank god). Very nice lady but is sometimes hard to understand and follow.

You basically have to teach yourself, and then she gives you clicker quizzes at least 2/3 classes you have per week.

Stay away from Dr. Woo's classes. She didn't grade anything until the tenth week of the semester so no one had any idea how they were doing. I had to withdraw last minute because of that. The papers she assigns are short but ridiculous, and she makes you feel stupid when you ask questions about tests and assignments.

Easily one of the most difficult classes i have ever taken. This class is the reason why I cry on a daily basis. I didn't expect it to be so difficult until the first exam. Studying was hopeless. However, she is a very sweet woman and wants her students to succeed. She gets off on tangents a lot and doesn't seem to teach the material. God Bless you

Dr. Woo is a funny, sweet teacher who truly cares about her students. However, it is insanely difficult. Her tests are awfully hard and we have clicker quizzes at the beginning of pretty much every class. Some days she's good at explaining things while other days I have no idea what she's talking about. I have too many breakdowns over that class.

I absolutely love taking classes with Dr. Woo. She is a wonderful asset to the Psych Department. No, her classes aren't easy, but they shouldn't have to be. She tries to teach her students to learn the information on their own and use real world application. Her handouts are ESSENTIAL to doing well on the tests. I have the utmost respect for her.

Dr. Woo is hilarious and as long as you ask for the help, she is more than willing to help you understand the material. You MUST get the textbook! Test are difficult, but if you prepare every week the material she has presented, you should do fine. Would definitely take her again.

Woo is a nice lady but not a great professor. Her lectures are random and sometimes off topic. Outlines don't really go by the book so expect book notes and outline notes. Give extra credit a lot. Also, doesn't tell you grades.

Dr. Woo is fantastic. Everyone who gave her a poor review took Psych 100, and were probably expecting an easy intro course. Dr. Woo is difficult, but she is an insightful and knowledgable professor. She cares about her students, and weighs all of the material differently, specific to the student. Her tests are conceptual and hard, but you learn.

Her exams are difficult & completely conceptual. You must read the book or you will not pass quizzes/exams. Your actual grade is usually unclear until the end. info is interesting. always looked forward to her class. The only professor I've had that reached out to me after the semester was over to see how I was. Very funny, caring, & personable

Dr. Woo is an AMAZING teacher who gives great lectures and she has a great sense of humor. She is very intelligent and you will learn a lot from her. She gives a lot of extra credit, which helps your grade. Most students in the class love her and she does challenge you to think deeply about theories. I will try to take her for my other classes

Cant fail this class. I always failed the clicker quizzes, I got a 42% on one test, and a C on another. Passed with a C!! It wasn't a crazy hard class but it was specifically for psych majors so it was specific. She does make the clicker quizzes EXTRA CREDIT at the very end of the semester. So you got 2/10 clicker quizzes? you got 2 e.c. points.

If you want to really invest into your major, it is imperative you take Dr. Woo. She is one tough cookie, but my god do you learn the material if you actually do the work. She is adorable, and caring, and incredibly knowledgeable. Exams are HARD but she curves generously. Take Dr. Woo.

I loved Tae Woo. She was very funny while talking about the course material. You'll read a lot out of the textbook on your own, but it leaves more time for her good stories in class. She gives you lecture outlines for each chapter which are VERY helpful for exams. Definitely study the notes and the book thoroughly before all exams.

Dr. Woo is an awesome professor. She really cares about her students and wants them to succeed. She hands out extra credit frequently. We had a lot of clicker quizzes but they were all extra credit. She grades very fairly and looks at your overall semester scores. I wish I could take her for every psych class. She's quirky but a lot of fun.
