Reviews of professor Taryn Grieder

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Great prof and TA. The title of the course is weird but the content actually gives a good overview of types of therapy and you analyze case studies to apply that. So it's pretty cool. Just one test but a bunch of other writing assessments, that aren't hard if you follow the instructions. Lectures were short, never 3 hours.

 The class is a little challenging but Dr.T sets up all her students for success and is always available to chat for extra help etc. She makes her lecture slides very clear and concise to understand and really takes her time to make sure we understand everything, it was so interesting and cool. I recommend this class!!

Dr Grieder is wonderful. Her lectures are so interesting, and she's funny and knowledgeable. I will be taking more courses with her!

Tough course. Great prof, very knowledgeable. Good thing the tests are non-cumulative and online.

Prof TG was so great that this was my favourite course in university so far. The lectures were really interesting and I learned a lot. There are participation questions for each lecture that get you thinking about the information and she shared some personal stories that made it relatable. Awesome course, I highly recommend taking it!

DrTG knows her stuff and wants students to do well. First test is hard but she grades fairly and adds marks. Bonus credits are given to increase your grade. You don't need the textbook so thats different then usual Trent courses. Interesting course but does take work for a good grade.

Dr. T was a great professor. She was always there to help and made tough tests easier by covering everything in her lectures. Attending classes regularly and staying engaged boosted my understanding and success in the course. Her dedication and approachability made learning both tough and rewarding.

Dr. Grieder is a great lecturer. But she does not communicate well with her TAs. I accidentally took three courses with her, and TAs did not follow assignment guidelines in every course. In the summer, TA failed to provide rubrics for every assignment. Dr. Grieder tried her best to solve the problem, but TA did not feed back. Super TA dependent.

Such a great course - one of the best instructors and most interesting courses I've taken at U of T. No textbook required, lectures are never 3 hours long, and tests are open book!

i had her in a previous class and she was great for that. however, psy343 was incredibly disappointing. the tas mark the papers so harshly. this class really shows you the unfair marking of this department. tests are fair (but we only had one) and papers have unfair grading schemes. get better tas, or learn to communicate with them. awful class tbh
