What a wonderful prof - I am so happy that I had the privilege of taking class with this man. Super clear lectures, always willing to answer questions during and after class. Willing to take student opinions on exam questions. Just overall, a total gem! It's sad this was his last semester teaching. Concordia will never be able to fill his shoes!

Dr Laurence is one of the best teachers at Concordia. Well-informed, and teaches super well, the material is clear and comprehensible. He is very organized and funny as well. I would not hesitate to take him again!

Time flies when Laurence teaches. The best prof I had at Concordia. Knowledgable and respected by his students. 1 midterm, paper and final. Exams are straightforward, doesnt use trickery.

He is amazing! Be careful though when he says that he wants a concise definition he is lying you should expand and say everything you know on the subject of the word he wants you to define and not just give the definition he gave in class. You need to know everythign really well but it is worth it because the lectures are inredibly interesting!

2 exams plus one 8 page paper. The class was exceptionally well constructed and just flows really well. Which is a very good thing because the final is cumulative. But really this prof almost makes it easy! Probably the best I have ever had at Concordia. Clear explanations, and tells you what's going to be on the tests. Go to class though!

Love him. He's super sweet and funny. He has a bit of monotone voice which can make it easy to drift off but if you focus and pay attention it'll be worth it.

Dr. Laurence is a really great professor, and his really knowledgeable in the field of hypnosis. His class was one of the most interesting classes I've taken at Concordia. His exams are a little tricky, and specific. There's a lot of material covered, and the final exam is cumulative.

One of my favourite profs I've had so far; not ashamed to say that I have a crush on his brain. No textbook but a lot of required papers to read. Really fascinating material, with some interesting personal experience stories thrown in. Fair grader, though the exams aren't easy. Wouldn't recommend missing class, since there is a lack of textbook.

Comment:
The course is great, it is handcrafted by the professor himself and is very empirically based and realist. No textbook but tons of material and studies to read but it reduces the second half of the semester. He talks in a slow conscience manner, great for recording, A few tricky questions but very fair exams, midterm is the hardest.

Great teacher with a charming personality. Interesting lectures which are spiced with good humour and extra materials from real life examples. He knows the material and makes it crystal clear for you. Very organized and if you attend his lectures, you will do great. Workload is very reasonable. I learned a lot and it was a pleasure!!!

Most interesting class I've ever taken. Brilliant professor, exciting lectures. The midterm and final were not quite as fun however, be warned that his exams are tough and tricky. Every bit of material is up for grabs, and he manages to question you on all of it. Worth it if you are interested.

I loved this class. NOT FOR THOSE WITH WEAK STOMACHS THOUGH. He shows pretty twisted pictures and I couldnt sleep after finishing my final paper. If you're really okay with this kind of thing then i recommend this class, he's great, knows what he's talking about and very friendly.

Very interesting class. He is a fantastic lecturer with so much knowledge. Plus he is great at communicating what he knows. He talks a little quietly though, so try to sit near the front.
