PSY10A . Woods V E 3 Months Ago

Dr. Woods is so helpful & passionate. Very accessible, I recommend going to OH. There's a lot of busy work & attendance is mandatory but it's not hard and it comes together in the end. 2 indiv. online + group in-person midterms but they're easy. Final research paper that you get a lot of guidance on and the rest of the grade is from lab/section.

PSY10A . Woods V E 3 Months Ago

Professor Woods was an excellent teacher!! enthusiastic about the content and explains things well. learned so much and have a great understanding of the course material that I will retain for a long time. She really teaches to think critically, and to use and apply knowledge... not just to memorize one day and throw out the next.

PSY10A . Woods V E 5 Months Ago

I took Prof. Woods for both Psy 10A and 120L, and I recommend avoiding taking classes with her. She assigns way too much busy work each week. The only good thing about her class is that exams are take-home. Attendance is mandatory, but her lectures are a complete waste of time in my opinion. She's also very passive aggressive.

PSY111 . Woods V E 5 Months Ago

Her class had a lot of busy work which I wasn't a fan of, but it was all easy and as long as you put in the time an A is super achievable. She's also the sweetest, most approachable person ever and will remember/say hi to you quarters after you've taken the class
