Mrs. McNamara teaches 2 classes: IB Psychology and Theory of Knowledge (TOK). I highly recommend her for both classes. In psychology, the only homework you have is studying the material you learned in class. There is only 2-3 projects in her psych class and all of them only takes a max of 1 week to finish. She is very clear on due dates and tests/quiz dates. This is the same for Theory of Knowledge, however there is a lot more writing involved, analytical thinking, and in class discussions. This class is more philosophical and is open to more free expression and thinking than the psychology class. The more the better because that is basically what you are graded on in TOK.
