He is a nice guy. All the instructions for activities were only given in class, so attendance is mandatory. The in-class activities were fun and required communication with classmates, so be ready to speak. Fair grading. He did give a lot of instruction for writing assignments this quarter. I think everyone got good results.
Nice professor, you should attend class for graded in-class activities but it always went by kinda fast and I never minded going. I got good grades on my papers and he gives thorough feedback. Little homework, just a short reading once a week and project builders for essays.
Very friendly instructor. No heavy homework to do. Most of the writing activities were finished in class.
Tym is an amazing writing professor. His grading was fair (idk what others are saying??). You can't slack in his class. But we all got a fair shot. You gotta put in the work to see the results... The class was quite interactive and he was always there to answer your questions.I feel like I've become a better writer thanks to his class! 10/10
Unfair grading. Unreasonable amount of extra work.
Will not return emails at all. No one listened to him in class, and mostly let the students discuss by themselves. You might as well ask your classmates for advice from him.
