Reviews of professor Taryn Grieder

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Taryn took her Masters of Education and you can clearly tell. She is so helpful and understanding and will do anything to help you succeed. She was not lazy at all and instead put in a lot of work to meet on Zoom with us live and weekly to present the lectures so that we could ask questions and get immediate answers. Also bell curves big tests!

DrTG is amazing and this course was my favorite so far. The tests were online and open book so it was easy to get a good grade if you attended lectures. She posted the lecture recordings for people who couldn't go in person as well.

She mismarked by test, then returned it two days before the final. When I brought it to her attention, she told me it was too late to fix it, and I lost 7% for no reason.

This course is pretty easy and the instructor gives shorter lectures (less than 3 hours every time). The readings are just supplemental so you don't have to do them. There are quite a few papers but if you follow the outline you do well. There's weekly participation to keep you on track. Awesome course and instructor!

I have had this prof for 3 courses and I like her course format. Does 3 term tests (non-cumulative) instead of midterm and exam which is helpful, and tends to allow cheat cheats for tests. Have found it consistent that no feedback is given on assignments which is super frustrating. Not a very engaging lecturer either, but overall very nice.

This course was a lot easier than I expected. There are a bunch of assessments/papers, but if you follow the instructions and keep up with the classes then you'll get an A for sure. Prof is very approachable and accommodating as well. TA was awesome too.

I gained a tone of practical knowledge that I can apply in the future to assist clients, not only those dealing with substance use but a wide range of clients. The prof skillfully connects with students and keeps the material interesting. I never felt bored while studying the course. I highly recommend taking any class taught by this professor.

Awesome. This was the most interesting course I've taken so far. Its easy to get a good mark if you keep up with lectures and participation. Theres no textbook so the tests are based on the lectures only, and the prof posts the lecture recordings so you dont even have to go to class as long as you watch the video and submit the weekly participation

Dr TG is awesome and the course is pretty interesting. Tests are kind of hard but she curves them. Caring prof. Have to give a shout out to Jennifer our TA. Whenever I email her she writes back right away and is really helpful. She did a lecture for the class and the way she teaches really helped me remember what she talked about.
