I highly recommend her for psychology! She is so nice and explains all the concepts so well. She offers SO much extra credit(like A LOT) and wants to see you do well. As long as you take notes her tests are easy and clear. She doesnt try to trick you with any questions. I liked her so much I'm taking her again next semester!

Dr.Z was one of the best teachers I've ever had. She breaks down the material in a way that makes it easy to understand. It is very clear she wants her students to succeed, I am awful at math, but with her help I was able to not only understand it but teach it to my peers. She also offers a lot of extra credit!

Amazing feedback given by her, each assignment that had to be submitted received some sort of feedback. The textbook for the class is provided through a free PDF online. She makes sure to thoroughly explain concepts and answer questions to the best of her ability. A new topic is taught each week along with a DQ and a paper to prove understanding.

Can't say enough good things about her. She has super funny and engaging coursework, awesome about providing feedback, and honors PSY101 with her is about the best paced course I've ever take for the amount of material you cover. It is a lot of material, be prepared to work hard, but she gives you the perfect amount materials and support to thrive.

Dr. Z is the best I was able to get an A with the help of her if you struggle with statistics make sure you choose Dr. Z as your professor and not even just for statistics for any other psychology classes. You will get an A if you try.

The most organized and structured class I have ever taken. Literally. You receive a schedule with every single assignment, test, exam, etc. in the beginning, which is super helpful. Keep on eye out for Easter eggs, this is easy extra credit. Lots of work, but very manageable if you set deadlines for yourself. Love Dr. Z!

I took her class last semester, which was arguably my most enjoyable. Her lectures were easy to understand and engaging. Her homework assignments helped me better understand the concepts she taught and her tests were difficult but fair. As long as you did the work and participated in class, you would do well on the tests.

Dr. Z is a cool and nice teacher. She has extra credit every week. She assigns a lot of work, like a 30- to 45-minute online lecture before class,DB and responds to 2 classmates, Quiz uses a lockdown browser, and records you using a camera. All of this is due each week, plus in-class lectures.

I couldn't recommend Dr. Z more! She is an amazing professor. If you put in the effort and genuinely want to learn statistics, you will get an A. Lots of lectures through YouTube you need to watch to succeed. I didn't use the textbook and still got an A. I spent about 10 hours a week on assignments. She offers extra credit every week too. 10/10.

Dr. Z was great! I was worried because I had never taken a stats class before and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! I did the hybrid course which was super organized and easy to navigate. She offers a lot of extra credit and wants students to succeed. Highly recommend her class!

If you're worried about statistics, take Dr. Z's course. She genuinely made me understand and enjoy statistics. I took the hybrid course and it was very organized. There is a lot of stuff due in a week, but it's easy to get done if you put effort in. She wants you to succeed, it's almost impossible to fail the class if you just do the work.
