Reviews of professor Sasha Kimel

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Group work for the entire semester. Alot of reading each week for the irat and t rats (weekly quizzes) at the start of each class. She does go over the concepts and has activates for students to do but overall your teaching your self the concepts. I felt like the professor put in very little bit of work. Its up to you to learn the information.

Kimel is a solid choice. She puts you in permanent groups to work with every week which is fun. There were quizzes once a week. You have to do the work otherwise your team will give you a bad grade. The exams were kinda hard so get the book and read it. I would take her again because I liked working with my group.

In her psych 332 class was online due to covid19 and she is so insecure with cheating and made her tests time below the length of the class which makes tests very hard if you have anxiety. This semester we did team work stuff I had a great team. You need to read or you will not pass the class she does give you were to read for the quizes.

Don't let team-based scare you. The readings are necessary. She's not very responsive to those who need more time, and her grading criteria makes no sense. But team assignments and quizzes are easy if you all do the reading. And if you meet when you're supposed to, you'll never do work outside of class. Uses movies to connect material.

Do not take this professor!! You will be stressed trying to figure out your grade and she is not helpful at all. She never knows the answer to anything you ask her. Expects you to teach everything to yourself. Not caring and is not great at teaching the material. Every time she explains things it never makes sense. Just avoid taking her!!

Horrible professor She does not teach very well and she is very insecure about cheating made her test where you do not have enough time to properly think. There are a lot of curve balls on the test so beware. This is a class were you need to teach yourself so beware of that. Class has online live zoon lectures and she only goes over some topics.

Not very lecture heavy, the entire class is based around activities with your group. Instructions are super clear, never needed to contact her or the TAs but do consider that the TAs are the ones who will be answering your questions. 3 exams 60 questions 75 minutes. Class is interesting and information is easy to stick

This professor is super nice and definitely cares about her students but the class is pretty boring especially online. U will have to teach yourself everything out of the textbook bc she doesn't lecture. So much group work. Class is pretty manageable and easy overall but don't expect to learn a lot
