He was an extremely helpful teacher. Always willing to put forth the effort to make sure we fully understand. He is extremely fair in his grading and gives the students a chance to challenge their grades. He doesn't assign much homework, only a few papers which he grades on quality and context. I am taking another class with him next semester!

Okay so I had this teacher for his 2nd ever semester at SSC. He canceled class often and the exams were take home. If you ARE majoring in psychology do NOT take this professor. I really haven't learned much of anything. I basically had to teach myself most of the material. However, if you want an EASY A take him.

Suits is extremely flexible and will bend over backwards to try to pass/help you. He is a great guy and the in class lectures are fairly interesting. If your taking his PSY class this is what you do to get an A, forget the book, forget taking notes. Do the online homework over and over that's the key to A's on tests, then just do your two papers.

Professor Suits is a cool guy, but the lectures are boring.Take this class online. The class isn't engaging, and you will spend class time listening to the lecture; which aren't resourceful either. A waste of time to come on campus. The online classes have the same course work, and the assignments are easy. Easy A, don't waste your time on campus.

Would take again

Professor Suits is a really nice and cool guy but there are a lot of PowerPoint videos which are very entertaining. All the assignments are clear and straightforward which is pretty easy to do. The work in his class is not stressful, and he normally gives you about a week to turn them all in. I would definitely take his class again if I want to!!

Disorganized. In-person and on Canvas feels like two separate classes. Assigns 10 to 12 assignments every other week and is all due on the same day. Only going to class for attendance because the lectures are boring and do not help with the exams. Assignments are easy but there are a lot of them, so you have to make sure to keep up. Take online.

Lots of homework
Lecture heavy
Accessible outside class
