Walking in, I was sparked by the professor, for he reminded me of me. He always allows a second chance, regardless of the previous mess-ups. He will always keep you awake, and his courses are fairly rigorous. Being one of the few Asian professors walking around, I highly admire him and hope to see him in future classes. He makes you succeed.

If you like an incomprehensible teacher that almost always off topic then "Utica" is the one for you. Lectures consist of him telling stories about his "interesting" life that is better than yours and attempting to relate them to the subject matter unsuccesfully.Students rarely discuss any material amongst each other. Take someone else.

Great professor! He teaches through really interesting and funny stories so the concepts stick. Attendance is a huge thing to him, and he rewards it with extra credit a lot of the time. He uses LearnSmart for all lessons and they helped me so much! Definitely would recommend

I wouldn't suggest taking this class online. All the test are 100 questions. He gives papers and extra homework on connect in each section. The quizzes are long also. Does not respond to emails. Maybe he's better in person, who knows. I'm not too impressed.

LOVE Mr. KIm!! He is hilarious and always positive. I took him for intro to psych. He lets you retake each test one time and takes the best score. He does not give extra credit but you can easily make an A. He takes attendance. how many classes you miss just shows him how much you care but he makes class fun!!!

Professor Kim is AMAZING! He does really well connecting each topic to the students. He will take the time and slows down to go over something again if it's not completely understood. He really connects to the class through humor and he understands that if we aren't engaged we aren't coming, so he makes his class interesting 10/10!

Professor Kim was hilarious and actually cares a lot about you. I believe the structure of textbook and LearnSmart reinforced the topics incredibly well. Not only did I learn Developmental Psychology, but I also gained a new skill set for studying effectively. DO YOUR LEARNSMART BEFORE CLASS; it makes everything much easier.

Intersession class goes so quick; you just have to study hard, do all the homework, quizzes and attend all the class. He is one of those professor who dedicates their life for students. If you take psychology and don't take his class you will miss big time. I am about to graduate and he is one of the two professor whom I will remember all my life.

Taken during the summer. There is a lot of reading, but the online program makes it easy to understand the info by giving you questions based on the material throughout the reading. Very easy A. I didn't have to email him once for help. Likes to keep you on track with email reminders of due hw, quizzes, and exams.

This was THE best professor I have ever had! He is so funny and he teaches very clearly to where you can understand the material better. If he taught it, I got it and aced it on the test. If I missed a class though it was hard for me to retain the information. I gave him a hot tamale cause he asked the class to! Haha and he does cuss a lot.

Had Prof. Kim for Dev Psy and Social Psy. His lectures are entertaining (and a bit crass), and he's very passionate not only about the topic but that his students learn and absorb the material. He's also an academic advisor for psych students, so I recommend seeing him. He truly cares about students and wants them to succeed. Absolutely great guy!!

Super nice guy. Great professor, but this semester was an exception for me. Long stories that loosely connected back to psychology as a whole, not so much social psych. He also really thinks he's doing us a favor working in Oklahoma, mentions it a lot. Again nice guy and when on topic he's great, but subtle arrogance and tangents was excessive.

Lectures were constantly off topic, he loves telling personal stories that only rarely have anything to do with social psychology, so class was never on schedule. Last unit (3 chapters) was not covered in class but still expected to know the material. Frequently tested on personal info and obscure tangents covered only in class, so don't miss!
