Ammirante's lectures are very dense has hard to listen to. He usually spends more time watching videos in lectures than actually teaching the course he was paid to do. His exams are extremely hard, usually being extremely specific to memorizing key words and definitions which he doesn't go over in class but expects to memorize verbatim. 1/10.
he is the sweetest guy ever. he gives clear exam outlines with exactly what slides to study to avoid making u review unnecessary material. the written assignment was an easy 90 and on top of that, the course itself is super interesting. love him
Paolo was an excellent professor with really interesting lectures. Exams and assignments are clearly outlined so you know what he expects and his grading is fair. I highly recommend.
overall good prof! for PSY813 its awesome cause for the tests he posts a list of the slides we'll be tested on so you study only what you need to (no tricky questions!). readings aren't mandatory, but i recommend going to class cause he expands on some things that are specifically on test questions. overall, good prof!
nice, caring, and organized, but the slides aren't really detailed so make sure to attend. 3 tests, 1 assignment. the work and grading weren't the easiest but also weren't too difficult. he tells you exactly which slides to study for the test. monotone but i found the content pretty interesting so delivery didn't matter to me.
Paolo Ammirante seems like a nice guy, however I couldn't help but find his lectures very boring. There are 3 exams and an assignment, and I found the assignment to be marked pretty difficultly especially the format of citations. The exams weren't super hard but they do require a lot of studying. Not the worst prof, but this isn't an easy elective.
He is a very kind professor, to be honest, the exams aren't super easy. His slides are slightly hard to read, and the exams are pretty difficult, therefore his class requires a lot of effort. However, if you take the time to go to class and study, you will do just fine.
I learned so much from Prof. Ammirante's lectures he is very kind and knowledgable. This course gave me new understandings of psychology as a whole. If you like the topics, its fun.
Teaching Style: Dry lectures with slides. Followed course syllabus well. Clarity: clear breakdown of complex information. Easy to take notes but too much information to process per class. Will clear confusion when asked. Organization: clear well structured and logically sequenced lectures. Communication: clear and on topic. Clear instructions.
He's a really fun lecturer. He is great at engaging the class and getting people to participate. The material itself is really interesting so a 3-hour lecture flies by. The assignments are easy and marked very fairly. His tests are exclusively from lectures so attendance is mandatory (take detailed notes!).
