ENG10 . Gilmore T B 2 Months Ago

Professor Gilmore is awesome. His lectures are thought-provoking, and he was constantly relating course material to daily life. He does go on the occasional tangent, and there are pop quizzes throughout the quarter (so you can't skip out on lecture), but I really enjoyed this class and the material it covered.

super easy class, lectures are quite random and unnecessary, but he gives pop quizzes. If you go to lecture and skim the readings class is easy

one of the best profs in the english department. lectures gave context to the readings and grade is based on a paper, midterm, final. he goes on tangents sometimes but he really cares about class material.

i did not expect to enjoy English 1650-1789 but Prof. Gilmore made it so interesting and related the texts to issues that we're facing currently in the 21st century. lecture is required and also 100% worth it if not just for the really awesome gems of wisdom and humor that he throws into each class. he made a boring topic a lot of fun

Timothy Gilmore is a wonderful professor. Yes, he sometimes rambles, but his rambling is a clear sign of his passion. Its an easy class if you actually pay attention to the lectures. Also his voice is very soothing. If you think Timmy talks too slow or too boring, simply put his lectures on 1.4x speed. He deserve a higher RMP grade!!

ENGL10 . Gilmore T B 4 Years Ago

I absolutely loved taking this class with Gilmore. He has amazing ideas that were so interesting to me. He really makes me think about how these topics relate to my life and the world. This is a class I will remember forever. Yes, there is a lot of reading, but that's expected in an English class. The readings are cool, too.
