Mr. Anderson is one of those rare professors that you stumble upon in academia that restores your faith in post secondary. He takes very dry material and makes it interesting.

When a Prof docks your paper because he doesn't personally agree with what your paper argues, despite having sufficient resources to argue for it, that is probably a sign that something is up there. Additionally, the topics are extremely specific, to the point where finding any sources may be difficult. Overall, not an enjoyable experience.

Avoid him if you can. No one in our class knows what is going on, and many people opted for skipping rather then hear him lecture pretentiously about himself for 120 minutes. He hasn't graded any papers in over 6 wks so no one knew what their grades were before our final; he also hasn't provided any information on our final prior to the exam.

Mr. Anderson has been the most quirky professor I've had during my post-secondary career. He's chock-full of stories, and certainly knows what he's teaching, but his stories can get off track. As far as the content goes, while he's an expert at his craft, he's not one to put up notes on the board, so be certain to listen so you don't miss anything!

This professor is very vibrant at first however can be quite rude responding to questions, during class once a girl asked a question and he made a rude comment in response to her. He is also a tough grader, however if you do all the assignments and read the textbook you will be fine. He also talks himself majority of the class so be aware of that.

I wouldn't fully recommend this professor. There's little guidance on assignments, and feedback is rare. However, he does allow the use of AI, which is a nice touch. The final exam is particularly difficult. He can also be rude when responding to questions, which makes the class uncomfortable at times.

The class itself was not challenging, but the exams were difficult. Study the grammar/sentence structure. Group projects were randomly assigned, and I had a hard time finding support from him when my group wasn't doing their portion of the work. Grades were returned really late, and a large portion weren't returned before the final.

This class was a masterclass in ego, not ethics. The prof fixated on his own achievements, insulted students and colleagues, and called himself a “transparent manipulator.” He demeaned our work while feigning humility. Ironically, he taught ethical practice while displaying none. A truly exhausting, self-serving experience.

Timothy has been late to almost every class. His assignment instructions are very vague and when you ask for further details or guidance he says to use your discretion. Upon using your discretion he gives a mediocre grade and no feedback. He does NOT respond to emails in a timely manner. To top it all off he takes a decade to grade.

Professor Anderson is a really easy grader but his lectures weren't great. His mini quizzes require the textbook and he will allow you to do them from home. A lot of writing, and a lot of homework. I would try to find a different professor for this class if you can.

1)Do not take his class unless good at English. 2)Gave back grades 2 months later. 3) I had 2 things marked going into the final. 4)Beware of taking in the morning he is naturally loud and will randomly yell to get attention. 5)For group projects he makes the groups for you. 6)Tests are long, hard and mainly on the mandatory textbook.
