Comment:
Dr. Theodore is the director of the MHC program so if anyone disagrees with him, he'll reply with, "Well, this is how it's done." He is open to hearing opinions, but at the end of the day it is his way or the highway. If you don't show up, you will NOT pass. Many people don't like him, but he's better than some professors I've had in the past.

Comment:
Dr. Theodore is a clinical psychologist but probably has the worst OCD/ obsessive tendencies out of any person I know. He wastes at least 4 classes a semester explaining how to cite references in APA style. Constantly repeats the exam same sentences and phrases every single class to the point of insanity. This class is very easy overall.

Comment:
He is enthusiastic about Adolescent Psychology but it seems to me that he is the same way about all of Psychology. His tests are his powerpoints and readings exactly. He expects participation and likes to hear opinions.

He talks way too much in class and honestly, I would say attendance isnt necessary because he posts the slides up on Blackboard. He is a nice person but he keeps you until the very last second.

Comment:
Theodore is really annoying. He reads from the slides and will keep you until the last second if not later. His tests are pretty easy even though they cover like 6 chapters + readings not covered in class. I just hate listening to him because he goes on and on and on and is a complete social justice warrior. Like the dude just needs to shut up.

I've taken Theodore 4 times already. He is by far the best psych professor at Iona. All his tests are standardized and very clear grading. He is extremely diligent and always there to answer questions, email or in person. Plus he is sooooo sweet. Highly recommend!

Comment:
Professor Theodore is honestly one of the best professors at Iona. He does give hard tests, but literally everything you need to know is given on the power points. They are hard, but not impossible. I know many people, including myself, that have received A's. He is so intellectual and insightful with psychology, so please take him!

Impossible. If you Want to teach yourself adolescent psych than take him. He didn't teach us anything. His test are impossible online. You can't move on to the next question until you answer the question you are on and you only have 60 mins for the test and final.

He is a great professor. He uses powerpoints in his class and he teaches very well. He will explain things to you if you do not understand. Just keep up with the readings and you will be fine.

I took him before and did not like him the first time, but his online classes are much better. He changed up the class so there is now a discussion and presentation days, not just powerpoints. Tests are hard, but he is willing to help you during office hours. You will get an A on the research paper as long as you go to him with it before it is due!

Comment:
Every class is exactly the same. A boring power point. He goes too fast, never further explains anything, only reads off the powerpoint. Never gives a study guide, and doesnt let you keep tests. His tone of voice drove me nuts. He obviously has OCD. Attendance is 10% of your grade. Dont take him, take Flora.
