Reviews of professor Jennifer Ramirez-Dust

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
For her "lectures" she reads the slides word for word, so I'm not really sure why I'm paying for her to "teach" me something I can just find on the internet in 5 seconds.

Out of all of the PSY professors at JCC, I believe this is the best one. Don't get me wrong, you will struggle in this class but this instructor provides the material you need and doesn't give too much work. Your main issues will most likely be the exams and one project. Overall, not too bad though.

Professor Ramirez is very strict with how she wants assignments to be, hence why shes a harsh grader. The assignments are self explanatory, however, they take long to complete. There are rarely times where the week load of work wasnt heavy. Feedback could be better and doesnt reply to emails in a timely manner. You have to email a week ahead.

This professor was very detail oriented and involved the students and participated with students. Was very entertaining and caring and thoughtful and always found ways to relate to us or make us laugh and is always available.

She graded fairly, but the class workload was INSANE!  PSY-150 isn't usually so bad, so I think it may be the teacher.  Some major assignments were due for me before they were due for students in PSY-150 who had other instructors.  Overall, if you work hard in this class, you'll do well, but don't expect it to be easy.

I love psychology, but this class format and teacher SUCKED. There is so much reading and outside work in the class. I've never had to rely on a textbook before. I taught myself everything and she was unhelpful. If you didn't copy the notes EXACTLY from the textbook, you would fail the in-class quizzes. Barely pulled out with an A working so hard.

Professor Ramirez was very caring and thoughtful about all students and their work. She was available in the classroom as well as not in the classroom. She was thoughtful about all assignments and each students work ethic. She was always energetic about the work and in the classroom for lecture which made me feel enthused about coming to class.

The class overall is hard already but she's always down to help answer any questions and has helpful feedback. She is really nice and funny as well! The quizzes and assignments are hard if you don't read the e-text. Open Notes on final!

Five question five minute quiz every class. Fill in the blank directly from the e-text. Can brings notes that you have taken but I've spent more time copying than comprehending. If you miss a day you receive a zero AND an absence. Stressful class and terrified for the midterm.
