keep it up! |
| He's a good teacher. |
| I am so glad that I joined Professor Dewald's Psychology 100 class. He was fun, entertaining, and
definitely gave examples that allowed majority of the class to connect with. If any student is
wondering who to take for Psy 100, I would recommend Professor Dewald indefinitely. Made my
experience in a Psy 100 class enjoyable and I wish all the professors were like him. |
| He's awesome! He's hilarious and he knows his stuff. Everyone should take
the opportunity to take a class with him! |
| A very enthusiastic professor who not only teaches with clarity, but also
knows how to capture the attention of college students. |
| really tries to make his students understand, but did not always appreciate some of his
inappropriate comments. |
| Great Professor! I would recommend anyone to take his course. |
| He is a great teacher, and values his teachings. He is very knowledgeable in his subject and
speaks clearly, with precise dates and language. He finds many ways to keep his class the
class interested and engaged, and he has taught me many new concepts over a variety of
focuses, even those not including psychology. |
| He is a great professor. He knows what he is teaching to his students and makes the information
very clear and understandable, and if we don't understand he will go back and explain to us again.

class really fun. |
| He is a good instructor; that is, he covers the material thoroughly and makes concepts as
easily understandable. |

| Though I came into this course with an interest in psychology, I can safely say that Dr. Dewald made
PSY 100 thoroughly thought provoking, engaging and entertaining beyond the course material itself.
I would take another class taught by him. |

class enjoyable. This was probably one of the classes I looked forward to
going to everyday. |
| Awesome! kept me awake every single class |
| that the subject is a dry subject but he managed to make a lot of the material somewhat interesting. |

confusing to understand. The explanation of the terms were simplified so much
that when using the technical term on the test, it became confusing. |

that's best understood. |

| great teacher! |
| Dr. Dewald is an extremely effective teacher through his informal
personality and memorable ways of teaching the material. Some teachers make
the mistake of over-formalizing their classes, making the class boring and
tedious, a terrible combination for a student striving to learn something.
Moreover, Dewald does not simply recite objective facts; he provides
contextual examples and personal anecdotes which allows the students to
associate the material with the memorable lesson. |
| Andy is an awesome professor. He made the material easy to grasp and uses good examples to
explains concepts. His lectures are clear, understandable, funny, and engaging. His style and
personality made me want to come to class each day and I haven't missed a single lecture because I
always look forward to what Andy has to say. By far my favorite class this semester and one of my
favorite professors I've had at UHM! |

from his subordinates. |

talking about. |

time to ask and answer questions during each lecture. |

| He is an awesome teacher |
| he knows his information well and tries to make class more interesting |
| Andy was exemplary - I never missed a class. He is the prime example of a
professor who teaches to the best of their ability and keeps the students
interested. He is aided by actually knowing what he's talking about, which is
different from most - this is apparent when questions are raised in class and
he is able to give detailed, lengthy answers on the new information brought
to attention. In addition, a humorous approach to many of the subjects made
going to lecture worthwhile. It is very encouraging to have a prof that is
just as interested in learning and knowing the subject himself, as he is in
teaching us about it. |
| Andrew Dewald is an interesting teacher who knows what he is doing and knows it. He is a relatively easy grader but make sure to read the textbook show up on time, and pay attention. note taking is optional but recommended. dont miss classes, Dewald doesn't actually know if you attend or not but the attendance quizzes on laulima are free points. Take extra credit opportunities they are offered. |

serve as examples |

| course full of information about probably a fraction of the field but he finds a way to make class interesting while adding humor and laughter throughout the semester. class is fun but it's no freebee by far. you do have to study so that you can apply what you are taught but that seems to be a given. |
| He is a great professor. He understands all of the information that he is presenting to us in class, and also provides background information to try to give a better understanding. I would recommend him to anybody that is interested in psychology. He relates the information to everyday life and it's easy to grasp. |
| ... A positive one... The course was kind of hard, but as I was learning the material the PowerPoints
made it easier to understand. The image choices to help us to better understand the material was
funny and really did help. |
| He makes lectures interesting and makes sure to answer everyone's questions during class. He
seems very approachable. |
| Andy makes the material interesting and talks about examples that can be related to life which helps you understand it more. He is also funny which is important because it makes the students want to come to every class and actually be excited to learn about it.
