She's pretty good. But she lets the class get off course and lets the students babble on too much w/ personal opinions which keeps her from teaching the contents of the course. i am really interested in the course and i feel like i show up just to hear my peers talk 85% of the time and then she makes a few statements and then its all jokes.

Toni is a great person but she speeds through everything so fast that I don't feel like I'm actually learning anything from her. She talks so much about her own career and accomplishments that it throws me off track from the subject matter being discussed. I think it would be beneficial for her to slow down & teach instead of speed lecturing.

I've taken her for 2 classes so you know she must be good! Her lectures keep you interested and entertained. She has great examples for any of the subjects we may be talking about. Definitely don't need the book unless you like to read in your spare time to better understand the subject.

Amazing Professor!!! She knows her stuff and goes pretty fast through the material so be prepared to take notes in class so that preparing for tests is easier. Overall great professor; very inspirational. She has great stories. She wants you to succeed. To be honest if you don't get an A in this class it is because you didn't care enough. Easy A

Toni is a wonder Psychology professor. Her lectures are very interesting and she often relates them to her professional life experiences. Book is nice to have but not necessary since she emails out a test study guide and section outline during the first week of class. Taking notes during her lectures is sufficient to pass this course.

Toni Blake is so awesome. She's very real, interesting and extremely intelligent. She tells very interesting stories then relates it back to the material. If no one asked questions she would get through the lecture quick and we'd get out early but everyone asks questions because her lectures are truly interesting so you want to know more. Very easy
