Comment:
I took Psychology because i was very interested in the topics. The class was in an auditorium, probably why it bored me to death. Mrs. Ballard is really nice with her high pitched voice and timer but her lectures are really boring. You can read everything she teaches from the book. I skipped the last few classes. Tests are pretty easy. but BORING.

In all due honesty, she's a good speaker but her class is a lot of work. Weekly quizzes, group projects and a load of "concrete experiences" Oh and you learn in a group so make sure you have an awesome group because you will be spending 13 weeks with them. She is retiring in August 2009 though and will not be teaching social psyc again at Langara.

Comment:
Treats students like preschoolers and not open to constructive critcism (singles people out in class). Teaching style can be frustrating for some people since she deviates from the clarity of the textbook w/ poor examples and her own unclear explanations. Despite this, it's an easy class if you can get past her style and just stick to the textbook!

she is the best you can get for psychology. Her classes are fun, and she explains everything well. she gives quizzes and exams often so you can keep up with your studying. The best way to study for her exams is to read through the whole chapter because her questions are based on little details.

She is the cutest prof. Ms Baker is very organized when teaching, most of her test questions are straight from the text book. If you are a student who study's right from the text you will Ace her class. Coming to class is manditory, she takes attendance every time. Gives 6 quizzes the whole term and picks the top 5 of your quizzes.

She is so cute! Such a sweet lady. Very helpful. From the beginning, I knew she'd be a good teacher. She is very motivated and she knows her psychology bery well. She enjoys teaching, she loves people and she loves questions. She smiles all the time. Just study her Chapter Questions, answer and understand them and you'll do really well.

I thought she was a really good teacher but I found that her exams werent straight from her lect. She is a really good teacher but I have a different studying style and the first midterm the averg was soo low for the whole class. If you like psyc then take her class. I dropped it because I didnt like her teaching style

She's awesome. You can get an A if you are prepared to work for it. She makes sure everything is clear and she's very approachable. She's a total sweetheart and her classes are always interesting. She gives little quizzes which insure you're on top of the studying, so exams aren't that hard. Fair marker.

GREAT prof! Takes the time to remember everyone's name. Friendly & outgoing style. Always answers questions! Makes material easy to learn & remember. Tries to appeal to all learning styles & creates a positive classroom environment. Tests & quizzes are a fair representation of what you were taught. Go to class, study & you will do well. TRY HER!!

So annyoing with her timer that she uses for everything! Treats students like little kids. Decent teacher, and I enjoyed about 1/2 of her lectures... but not open to criticism or attempts by students to explain their point of views by any means.

Very good teacher! Nobody was falling asleep in this class. Exams were average, not too hard, not too easy. Quizzes are very easy. Listened in class, and skimmed through the text right before the quiz and would easily get 8/10 and 9/10.

Great instructor. The best I had so far. She is very helpful in many ways not just to her course,but also other things. The social psych is really interesting course. I learn many things about human interactions from it. Great instructor + good(interesting course) = happy student and enjoyable. I highly recommended taking her or any of her courses.
