Super sweet and always answering any questions that you may have about the lecture. However, there is WAY too much material, which I don't even blame her for, it's sort of the nature of the topic. She drops the lowest quiz and 3 participation points which helps your grade a lot.PSYC3458 2026-04-19 00:30:02 +0000 UTC
Literally the best professor out there, very friendly and approachable, always willing to help and explain whatever is unclear. Very clear structure of the course, grading and teaching style. Amazing!!PSYC1101 2025-12-18 13:29:29 +0000 UTC
LOVED HER! You can tell she is extremely knowledgable and passionate about the subject which made class so fun to go to. You need to put in real effort for some of the assignments, but it is worth it if you value truly growing intellectually. She is the rare kind of professor who you can tell is dedicated in seeing each of her students succeed.PSYC3458 2026-04-16 02:52:10 +0000 UTC
I really liked Professor Scott. She was super friendly, and I liked how lenient she was about dropping low scores. I didn't like how lecture-heavy every class was with an overabundance of material to memorize. I understand it's an intro course, but sometimes less is more. It also felt too much like my high school psych class. I guess I wanted more.PSYC1101 2025-12-15 05:54:21 +0000 UTC
She is very nice and knows her stuff. A lot of her quizzes/exams have similar questions to the homework. The midterms were also fair and pretty chill. If you actually pay attention in class, you won't need to study much.PSYC3458 2026-04-10 00:42:55 +0000 UTC
Professor Scott is amazing! There's extra credit opportunities throughout the year and she sometimes drops your lowest quiz or homework score.PSYC1101 2025-12-11 06:23:37 +0000 UTC
SOOOOO many lectures. She's truly the sweetest person alive, although the lectures kind of drone on and are slightly boring, she is super passionate and knows what shes tallking about. Easy APSYC3458 2026-04-01 04:31:09 +0000 UTC
This was Professor Scott's first year teaching at Northeastern Oakland, and she did amazing. Though her lectures are pretty heavy, people can participate or not. She will drop quizzes and homework and give extra credit. I would really recommend this class since she is really amazing and makes it really hard to not do well.PSYC1101 2025-04-18 19:23:41 +0000 UTC
Super clear lectures and course material! Canvas was organized and everything we had to do for credit was reasonable. As long as you stay consistent on homework and pay attention in class there shouldn't be any additional stressors. My fav prof!PSYC3458 2026-01-09 00:15:14 +0000 UTC
Professor Scott is such a good professor. The lecture slides are clear and she does a good job of explaining everything as well. There's extra credit opportunities throughout the year and she sometimes drops your lowest quiz or homework score. You'll always know what to expect when it comes to quizzes and midterms. I recommend!!!PSYC3458 2025-12-06 00:27:39 +0000 UTC
Class is mainly slide presentation which are all posted before the next lecture. Lots of information but quiz questions and exams are generally the main topics and are all MC. Homework, quizzes and final are online she provides extra credit throughout the semester and is generally super chill. Overall loved her class.PSYC3458 2025-08-16 19:17:29 +0000 UTC
Loved this class. The class itself was a basic lecture based class. The quizzes are usually made up of a variety of homework questions and attendance questions then the exams are made up of some of those questions. Very kind professor, and the content can sometimes be a lot to digest, but the homework and external sources she provides are helpful.PSYC3458 2025-04-22 23:11:23 +0000 UTC
