Fall 2019 - Dr. Sandhofer is such a pleasant person. I truly wish every professor on campus was as nice and fair a person as her. Being in her class was educational AND fun. She has truly inspired me to pursue developmental psychology. I wish I could have all my classes taught by Dr. Sandhofer. Please do yourselves a favor and take this class. I 100% recommend her. You will be satisfied. Her TA Amalia was also the best!

It was a interesting class..but the thing i didn't like about her was that she spent the first 3 weeks just lecturing on stuff we know from Psych. 100B, and we only actually got to observed the kids for maybe about 3 weeks out of the 10 we had. Plus she expected sooo much. The week the data was collected, she wanted to whole paper due in one week plus a presentation!!! Why couldn't the paper be due on finals week??? The topic is interesting but the way she taught the class i didn't agree...
