Reviews of professor Elliot Spengler

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The online textbook is free, but the tests heavily revolve around the readings. Clicker questions are used for attendance, but you are allowed to miss up to 4 class meetings without penalty. Spengler really cares about the mental health of his students and his lectures are interesting. The tests are difficult, but he offers lots of extra credit.

Professor Spengler is an amazing professor. He truly cares about all of his students and want the best for them. Each week you have online quizzes but they are easy if you read the textbook. There are four exams that are not to bad if you go to class and review his slides. I would recommend him for anyone that needs to take an into Psychology class

Elliot is a really pleasant guy, even though the lectures can be boring he always tries to make them fun. He's very encouraging and is always accessible. The class requires effort, and the exams are tough, but there are plenty of extra credit opportunities.

I loved this class and professor!!! Spengler made lecture so interesting and he was really understanding and caring. The only thing is it's not really an easy A. It's not hard by any means but be sure to study for tests and attend class, he really wants you to learn this stuff.

He is a real gem of a professor. I was in his very first class that he had taught and interviewed him for another class. He genuinely cares for his students and is very passionate about psychology. He makes class engaging and provides various elements to help us understand the material. He is very understanding and all around a great person.

Elliot made this class overly hard for an entry level course. Tests are based mainly on textbook readings which he barely covers in class. He does at a least 2-6 clicker questions for a grade everyday and if you get the wrong answer it seriously hurts your grade. The one good thing about his class is he does give extra credit, but they are lengthy

This guy is awesome, would definitely take him again if given the chance. He is interesting to listen to and also encourages feedback from the class. Effort and reading is essential to doing well but it is really not that bad. Lots of extra credit opportunities too. Elliot makes the class very interesting from his own experiences.

This class was somewhat difficult if you go in thinking it will be easy. The lectures can get boring sometimes, but if you show up and read the book you will do well. Elliot genuinely cares about you and wants you to do well. I would recommend taking him for Psych 110.
