Dr.K is a great! She may appear to be strict and stern at first, but she's actually very approachable. Lecture slides are overwhelmingly informative but tests are fair. Warning: the last exam was a bit more difficult than the midterms. Attending office hours helped.

She has that horrible "new teacher attitude" -- she's insecure in her new position a.k.a. she cannot tollerate any sort of challenge to her status. She insists that her exams cannot possibly have any typos and chastizes students for asking questions, presumably due to the fact that she feels threatened because she cannot give adequate answers.

Wow, i only attended 4 or 5 lectures through out the whole quarter and only show up for midterms and final and got D's on all of them and still end up with a C- in the class. she's such an understandable teacher. if you're near the borderline she'll give it to you.

straight forward style, both in her org of the class and her info for tests, worked hard to make class as student friendly as possible, fair with grades, style and presentation keeps students interested and understanding the material. Also has vast intelligence, great humor, made for a good experience in a tough intro class that is required

This teacher is amazing! I loved her teaching style with her stories and funny add ins every now and then. She is very laid back, chill and unique. Her lectures are clear and to the point. However, I thought I might give the rest of you a heads up, since the class has that odd curve in it to filter out the non-majors the last test is really HARD!!!

Shes awesome, super funny sometimes, lectures are semi-entertaining. A lot of information on the tests and in the class. Her lectures are really clear and she is super good at explaining anything and everything she teachers. Great class

Dr. K is an awesome Professor. By far the best class I have taken so far at UCSB. I don't even take notes in lecture - just listen to the Prof speak because she is so interesting. Lecture notes are clear. Even though the class is very difficult with the curve, it is obvious what to study for from her notes.

Not a bad class. The professor is pretty funny although sometimes a bit excessive. The class is pretty hard especially with the ridiculous curve.

VERY good professor, i recommend you take her for psych 3. She explicitly tells you what you need to know and what you won't need to know for the tests. Great speaker, very helpful, makes it easy for the student to engage into the material which makes studying easier. Overall great no matter what kind of studier you are.

She is really funny! Also very clear in her lectures. I don't think that anyone could not enjoy her. Class is rarely boring and she obviously loves this subject. Take this class with her! It's not the easiest topic, but she makes it as easy as it can be!

This woman is awesome! Her lectures are very clear and her obvious passion for the material keeps me interested all class. She's straightforward about exam material and I've never listened more organized or clear lectures. BONUS: She has a sense of humor! Take her for Psy 3!!

Today was the first day of class but she gave such an awesome first impression. Extremely passionate about the subject and seemed very nice. Also, had some funny images on slides. I'll update once the material starts coming
