Reviews of professor Erika Manczak

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Manczak is an amazing professor who really cares about her students and is excited about what she is teaching. As long as you put in the work you will do well in the class and she does not give out any tests in PSYC 2500, your grade is based on a final essay and in class assignments.

Prof. Manczak has a flipped classroom style, which is definitely something that either works or doesn't for you. Lectures were long but she tailors her teaching to her students' interests. There were a lot of group assignments so I would be careful where you choose to sit on the first couple of days of classes. No tests, just smaller assignments!

I loved professor Erika. You could tell she obviously cared about all her students and the class was both super interesting but also the way she has it structured easy to grasp and understand.

Manczak has a flipped classroom set up, meaning you take notes outside of class and she reviews them in class and then you do an assignment during class. No class has taken the full 2 hours. She is an easy grader, and there are not quizzes, tests, or finals, just a short final paper. You can tell she cares about her students. Didn't use textbook.

I really liked Professor Manczak for adult psychopathology. She does a flipped model for class so you take notes outside of class and do a quick assignment in class. While it is a bit of organization outside of class, she goes over topics again in class and has no tests or quizzes only one essay for your final.

The class consisted of out of class reading, in class short lectures, in class group worksheets, and a final essay. The class was often finished within an hour. The information was extremely interesting and presented very well. The workload is easy, but you really learn a lot from Dr. Manczak.

Like every review has said, Dr. Manczak does flipped classroom style with no tests or major assignments. She is an easy grader and there is only one essay that is simple and fun! She is clearly knowledgeable and loves answering questions. Classes are really short and she is easy to reach.

Assignments were done as group assignments. Class attendance was kind of expected, but everything could be done from home/a dorm. Class also ended about an hour early. A lot of information was on Canvas so the textbook was kind of unnecessary. Super interesting person/class. Her professional background added in extra application to the topics.

This is my favorite class. If you try then you get 100. It's a fun topic and you learn a lot. She has tons of clinical experience which means she can apply things to the real world. She's super easy to talk to and cares a lot. I wish she taught more courses because I would take them all in a heartbeat. Also you get out of class early most every day
