have fun in his class..nice prof, not so demanding..knows what's best for his students

Rude, Arrogant man.

I'm not sure what everyones talking about, I thought he was really genuine and nice. I got an A+ in this class. You can only make essay writing so interesting...

Had him for essay writing. Thought he was a fair marker, liked how he got the whole class involved. For the good or bad, Felt more like a highschool class than university course

I LOVE TREVOR TUCKER!!!!

Prof Tucker was awesome, i loved going to that class even if it was at 8:30 in the morning.

He is very nice and helpful, and puts a lot of effort into getting the class involved and making sure people understand the material. At the same time, don't expect a good grade if you are an illiterate idiot - go back to remedial. Tucker is definitely preferable to other 1100 profs.

Great prof...would start the class off with a personal story. Was easy to listen to and very helpful. Only taught you what you needed to know and didn't waste your time with useless information. I highly recommend him as a prof.

Really nice guy, easy to follow, and is a good speaker.

Awesome Teacher! Didn't think that the class was going to be interesting before I started it, but he's very interesting and funny at times. Very informative and a fair marker. Like his personal stories as you can relate to him. Really, Really good writer and awesome person in general. Can you edit this blub for me?

Great prof! Interesting and laid back with the class. Easy marker, unless you're stuck with one of his TAs.

Nice guy, laid back, funny, starts almost every class with a story. Made the class interesting. My writing definitely improved.

He's a very good teacher! He's funny and interesting. He actually cares that you understand what he is trying to communicate! A pleasure!

I couldn't believe it when I saw a green smile beside his name. I found out why after reading the comments. There is a major correlation between the amount of spelling mistakes in the comment and the mark Tucker got from that person. If you have a working spellchecker on your word processor then you’ll likely enjoy his teaching.

Excellent teacher, very helpful, easy marker. Many of my 3-hour classes lasted an hour and a half tops

awesome prof!! i had tucker first semester, and he's my favorite university prof yet... take his class if you get the chance.

Great professor. Manages to take a largely uninteresting and dry subject and make it both palatable and comprehensible.

such a sweet teacher, amazing guy. Got to watch live aid, and an episode of nothern exposure for some weird reason. lol overall great prof, sweet class, but i have herd from other people their essay writing class sucked, so take it with him

A great professor - doesn't just want you to get a class, but an education. Literary criticisms to life lessons, he's got it all.

it was an essay writing class but he managed to make it really interesting...i'm not sure what else he teaches, but this course was really good

Tucker was awesome, he made me laugh and overall he was a good prof...didn't really like the TA too much, but it was a solid class

Very very good prof... very funny, very encouraging. Great guy, encorporates life lessons into his class. Love this guy!

From what I hear, BY FAR the best ENG prof to have for 1100. Made English fun! That's right I didn't know that was even possible but it's true. A wonderful man, very helpful. Papers/Exams were very very fair. Highly Recommended!

an awesome teacher. very funny. I wish i could take his class again. :)

Amazing prof., he is one of my favorites!! I would recommend him to anyone. Hopefully I'll be able to take another one of his classes.

Solid prof, made lectures fun, pretty funny, marks were fair, highly recommended!

Great prof, made what could have been a deadly boring class truly fun and entertaining. Very engaging, open and willing to talk to students. Pretty easy marker and offers lots of constructive criticism. Definitely take a class with him if you get the chance!

Very funny and engaging. Would take any of his classes.

TAKE HIM!! he is sooooo funny and laid back. if u really want to learn english, dont take it with him. but if u want A, take tucker hes awesome

Really chill teacher- I would take his class again in a second! Really laid back, fun, up to date with "kids these days." Learn a bit bout English and a lots about random stuff. Really enjoyable! I RECOMMEND HIM!!! (On halloween we analyzed THRILLER and the different rhetorical devices used in it... too fun!)

This will be the best class of your semester. It's been said a million times here, but he's so laid back. He'll let you out an hour early sometimes. He really does know what he is talking about too. You will learn a lot from him, about English and life, and you'll actually enjoy yourself. If you get Trevor, consider yourself lucky. Amazing prof.

Hated english prior to his class but he gave me a new found love of english and I loved him. The coolest and most chill prof I have ever had.

Made a boring, mandatory class really interesting and bearable. He's very easy-going and appreciates a good sense of humour. Lots of interesting and funny digressions. An easy A if you do the work and write with personality.

He is really funny and makes this class entertaining when it's not.

Great Prof. Made an otherwise dull english class enjoyable. Easy marks for originality and style as well as personality.

Made it fun

honestly I couldn't bare more than 1week with him.could'nt stop bringing **** topics up towards religions.he should be more careful to notice he has all religions in his classroom whether minority or not.cracks white jokes up but it ain't funny.overall lame class.I do NOT recommend!

Overall he's okay as a teacher. Not my favorite, but he's fine.

Very nice teacher. Super chill. Sometimes will not show up to office hours but still really nice and willing to set up actual meetings with students. Marks fair. Is super easy going!

If you do poorly in this course, drop out of University. The easiest marker I have ever ecountered. Lectures were laid back, relaxed, and a useful refresher for people such as myself who did not pay attention in high school. He will let the class out early because "it's friday" or "I'm in the Christmas spirit". I highly reccomend him

Super easy quizzes, easy but lengthy final exam, easy going professor

Class was very laid back. Fair marker. Nice guy!

Great prof! Very helpful and super nice too! Explains things really well in class and he'll tell you his expectations. He actually made the class a lot more interesting than it is. Learned lots too. Thank you professor!!!

Had him for Business English on Saturdays and was totally worth it!Best prof of my 1st year in business and funny thing is he's not even a business prof.Laid back classes, easy quizzes and assignments.Read the textbook because it's very helpful.He not only teaches English business but also how to conduct and live in society, be a good human being.

Class is very repetitive, and boring. But that's the content, his teaching is great. He gives good examples, a very approachable guy, has the odd funny joke, marks easy, but the repetition made classes very hard to attend.

Very funny prof :) I got higher marks in this class than I did in high school english. He made it pretty interesting!

I had him for business english.. he's a fun prof, not strict at all. My only issue was that it seemed everyone was getting similar grades regardless of the amount of effort u put in your work. His tests were not hard but he can be a tough grader at times. Overall, pretty good prof.

Very good prof. Takes a very dry subject and makes it more engaging then it should have been. Also is pretty funny, and makes a few jokes and tells pretty interesting stories, that are irrelevant to the course, but nevertheless entertaining.

Such a boring class...he made the lectures super interesting though with funny stories about his family which was cool. I had the DGD with the TA who marked super tough, kinda wished I had him but whatever. Good class to take!

Made a boring course interesting with his dry humor and personal stories. Also made the content easy to understand, and had no problems if you had any comments or concerns. Really fair marker, you'll do even better if you have original ideas. He is religious and obviously has strong opinions, but is still very open minded. Easy & great course.

He is one of the best English teacher Ive ever had. He is really clear and helpful during lectures. He cuts friday night classes shorter, but still covers everything he needs to cover. His assignments and quizzes are straight forward and you know exactly what you are expected and HOW TO DO THEM. My TA was a really tough marker, but class is easy

Great English prof, he makes it clear of what he expects on assignments and is interesting to listen to. He seemed to give high marks to people who were creative with the assignments. Course was very easy too.

Great prof. Made the class fun!

Professor Tucker is amazing! He makes the boring English class fun and motivating. Though he is really tough on the correction, you will learn a lot from him. He rewards those who listen carefully to what he says by giving hints, so pay attention!

This professor managed to turn a dry topic into one that was extremely fascinating . His jokes help ease students and his openness to discussions is also quite refreshing . Pay attention in class and you should be good . Would definitely reccomend .

I really enjoyed his lectures. He made jokes and related well with the students. He was very clear and specific on what he wanted. He's a tough marker, but he's fair. You need to work hard to get a good grade in his class.

For such a dry course, he had interesting lectures and kept my attention. It was the one class I looked forward to attending, and did learn a lot. I actually learnt more about writing an essay with him than I did throughout high school. Mediocre marker, gives good grades if you're creative. Has office hours and is willing to help. Very funny!

If all classes were offered by him I would not mind going to every single one of my classes. He was so helpful, extremely friendly, very knowledgeable and he loves talking about his family; which was really cute! I would be excited to go to his classes because he was always interesting! Really cares for his students; TAKE HIS CLASS!!!

If you go to class, put in effort, and do the readings you will get at least a B+! One of my favourite professors by far and would take all my classes with him if I could. He's super sweet and cute too ;)

Avoid if possible. He thinks your communication classes are English classes. Marks essays tough.

AMAZING prof. Lectures were always entertaining - made funny puns and side comments. Go to all the lectures, doesn't post anything on blackboarde-mail. Highly recommend, all assignments and pop-quizzes were each (95%- 110%)

His teaching style is this course is Socratic (we sat around in a circle and talked most classes). The material was very interesting and he gives you room to address areas of personal interests in your papers. He really wants to hear what you think. Don't be afraid of the pop quizzes. They are pretty open-ended and flexible. Great class.

Professor Tucker should teach all seminars. He moderates debate, fosters discussion, and provides clarity to complex issues. Incredible professor, incredible man.

Very interesting if you like the topic (of fine English writing); may need to open Facebook from now and then if you are not into storytelling. He is an excellent storyteller himself however and the best suited prof. to teach the seminar!

Professor Tucker is absolutely hilarious. Walking down the street you wouldn't be able to tell this guy is an English Professor at a university. All around a great guy and a really good teacher.

Prof Tucker is amazing! He made Essay Writing a class you actually wanted to be in. Asks thought provoking questions and encourages class participation. Worked through your writing with you so that you actually improve. Definitely not the easiest prof for this class (have to put in effort and he marks content pretty hard) but you learn a ton.

I loved this prof, he was funny and wanted to make it easy as possible for the students. He gave us the essay that was going to be on the final the day before so we could get there ready.

Best English teacher ever. The class has an informal, open inviting environment to it, and so does Professor Tucker. He is funny, approachable, and will give you endless feeding on your essays if you're interested. The expectations for the course and essays are clear cut, with a medium level of workload. A must take if possible.

Very clear expectations and encouraged discussion and NEW perspectives during lectures and DGDs. Gives great feedback! He sat down and went through my essay with me and really cares about his students and the subject. Grades very particularly on content but really encourages you think outside of the box!

I am not an english fanatic, but Professor Trevor Tucker made the class engaging by cracking the odd joke and was actually very helpful with my essay writing. We did not have too many assignments, but when we did he guided us well towards what he looking for. He solely focuses on writing and does not do too many lessons on grammar.

Overall, Professor Tucker is a great prof! He doesn't actually use his ppt slides in class. Instead he lectures the group and posts his slides after class. The course was really interesting and easy to follow along and take notes. Fair exams. I would take another class with him for sure! You can get by without the coursepack, but it's nice to have.

Trevor was a good prof but my only complaint is that he is unorganized. Often he ends lectures about 30 minutes early(sometimes even earlier) and then later on he is pressed on time. Overall, he is fair and if you talk to him he gives good feedback and helps you improve your essays.

Professor Tucker is by far one of my favourite profs at the university. His lectures are engaging and encourage discussion. Every lecture is interesting, and his teaching style actually makes you want to listen. He often cracks jokes and gives great examples, often referring back to his own family. I would definitely take another class with him.

Trevor Tucker is one of the best profs I have ever had! He is super enthusiastic about the course and is very much into class participation. Lectures are focused on class discussion and does not usually post any slides. Super helpful, funny, and interesting to listen to! He makes being in a 7-10 super enjoyable! Would 100% recommend his classes.

***CMN2132-A***(french student taking english class) Great Prof. Organised, respond to email quickly, shows that he cares for the students. Lectures are mendatory and You have to read almost the whole textbook. Exams are easy IF you do your reading. Class aren't necessary but somewhat entertaining. The catch : He gives random quizzes.

His classes are pretty standard - midterm, final, and pop quizzes for extra marks throughout. He doesn't allow electronics in class, so be prepared to write notes by hand. FUNNIEST prof I've ever had, such a pleasure to attend his classes! Apply the readings and lectures and formulate your own opinion, and you're golden.

So happy I took this class. Dr. Tucker's style of teaching allows you to think for yourself. Lectures are open dialogue and full of excitement (especially if you've got funny classmates)! I would definitely recommend a class with him. Learned so much about nonverbal communication!

Can't use electronics. The textbook is straight forward and helpful. The assignments are fairly easy, so are the two pop quizzes. Class did not last 3 hours always lasted two or less. He is really funny, nice, approachable. He gives you the final exam prior but with more choices. Overall great guy, hope to take another course by him again.

He's a very nice man, and a good lecturer. Paper expectations were clear, and not graded too harshly. Midterm and exam were very fair (he loves examples in long answers!). It's an easy A if you've gone to class and done the readings. Interesting material too. Would highly recommend.

One of my favourite profs in university! He made a dry subject interesting, interacted with the students, and made an effort to learn names. Also, he kept lectures to the point and ended classes early on several occasions. Definitely a great option for ENG1100!

Great prof that makes english so engaging and interesting. Go to all the lectures. Very clear grading scheme, and always available to clarify or help you out on material. Textbook is a life-saver in this course. When in doubt refer to the textbook, it has so many guidelines and examples that will save you

Great prof!! Didn't drag the class on longer than it had to be and he made class interesting with his good sense of humour! Also very clear with his expectations and his marking seemed to be fair game!

Great and fair prof! Never drags classes on. 2 papers, 3 pop quizzes (usually on the day the paper is due) and final exam (gives you the layout and picks the main essay question from two assigned readings). Bare minimum of the course is spent on grammar, he is more interested in great essays. Would definitely recommend this prof!

The textbook is mandatory in order to get a good mark in his class. He made the class fun and enjoyable, we laughed a lot in class. However, his exams and marking scale are harder than it seems.

The classes are small so if you don't go to the lectures it's noticeable. He talks a lot about his personal experiences which I found great. He's really nice and will help you if you ask. There are pop quizzes, they're reallly not that hard. Would definitely take again. The class in itself is boring but he makes it more interesting.

At first I was a little disappointed with the lectures, they arent structured and his thoughts seem incomplete. But as the semester went on he got way better. He gives you the Qs for the exams ahead of time, and he was very laid back about paper deadlines and APA format, etc. You know because of that he really wants you to do well, which was great

Professor Tucker is by far the most helpful and kind professor I have had. He is a very good speaker, applies the material to real life which makes it easier to understand. He is very clear on exam and assignment expectations, and genuinely wants to see his students succeed. It's very refreshing to have a prof that actually wants you to do good

one of the best profs uottawa has to offer! hilarious, sweet, an overall amazing prof. will tell you exactly where you went wrong on quizzes, genuinely wishes well for his students, and just an amazing guy altogether.

Hands down my favourite prof, he always gives amazing feedback and is willing to help his students. I find his way of teaching very simple and straight to the point, which makes class interesting and actually fun lol

He's honestly an angel, he'll make material relatable and super straight forward. Midterms are a piece of cake like you have to try hard to do bad on them

Best teacher I've ever had. If you have the chance to choose him as your prof.. DO IT! He makes class so interesting and makes you actually want to go to class.

M. Tucker cares a lot for his students. It's very easy to have great notes in his class, even if English isn't your first language (like me!). However, he's a little bit disorganized when he teaches. For example, he can read the half of the first slide of the PowerPoint (information very clear on it) and after going to the third slide.

Prof. Tucker is amazing! Make sure you go to class, do the readings, and study the vocabulary and you'll do just fine. Also be sure to go to class because he includes questions on the exams that are based on material only discussed in class.

Prof. Tucker is absolutely amazing. Lectures are well organised and easy to understand and his expectations for the exams are clear! 2 Pop-Quiz Participation points 2 mid-terms Final : Gave 110 sample questions, 60 were on the final.

Amazing Prof, made lectures interesting and engaging. Midterm and final exam are all multiple choice. Easy A, would 100% recommend

Trevor Tucker is a gem. His class was super fun, interesting and insightful. He has a great way of explaining things and I never fell asleep in one of his classes. I usually dont buy textbooks but I did for this class because he does base some of his questions on the text. He makes his pop quizzes/midterms/finals fair and easy.10/10 would recommend

Very interesting individual. Funny (in his own way), fairly easy grader. He is extremely open-minded. Did not buy the textbook for CMN2148 - and still passed with an A-... Would take again!!

Very funny, tells lots of dad jokes. Great lectures, and fair exams. Was willing to go the extra mile with students, and was very easy to ask questions or voice concerns to. Always gave us notice before the "pop quizzes". Easily one of my favourite profs by far.

AMAZING PROF!!! if you have the chance to take him you need to! He gives great life advice in class, makes class completely apply to your life and makes the stuff interesting. he really cares about his students and loves the stuff he studies.

In this class we had a few pop quizzes, two midterms and a final exam. All were SO easy if you went to class and listened. For the final exam, he sent us questions ahead of time and picked from those for the exam. Professor Tucker is so easy to listen to and tells personal stories that really help you remember the content. Love him.

Exams for this class are multiple choice and not super long (2 midterms: 40 questions each/1 final: 60 questions) Pop quizzes (2) are in the style of short essays No papers Show up to class because sometimes he mentions things and shows videos that arent in the textbook but are mentioned on the exams Super nice and funny

A really good prof - cares about his students, listens to concerns, and prepares you for the exams and quizzes. He goes through the slides relatively quickly so you have to keep up, but he explains the material very well. He's also really big on engagement and participation so class discussions are fairly frequent.

He's mad cool and teaches very well. He also orchestrates a lot of class discussions which are cool (we would do them every week during the second class section). Would 1000% recommend, he's awesome!

Incredible professor. So much respect for his teaching style. 10/10 would recommend.

Great prof. He is engaging and the course content taught me a lot. Quizzes and final exam were very fair. Only improvement would be his powerpoint slides which are hard to follow.

Great prof, great guy. Very approachable, and focused on discussion rather than straight memorization. Interested in people's opinions, and loved to use anecdotes and reference (good) movies and music. Made lectures actually enjoyable, and tests + other marking was very fair. Participation matters, and pop quizzes announced 2 weeks before.

Really great lectures; interesting; course was very easy to succeed in! He's really interested in student opinions, cares less about memorizing terms.

Prof. Tucker is a genuine guy with a lot of fun stories. He goes off on tangents which can be quite distracting. He is definitely a tough grader and makes you work hard to get the mark you think you deserve. I never bought the course pack but if you want a high A, buy it.

Honestly the best teacher ever, he's so chill. Doesn't care if you don't do your readings. Easy grader. 10/10 teacher definitely take his class

This man is a saint. By far my favorite professor and my favorite class. He deserves everything good

just take his course. just do it.

Amazing professor!! He loves when you participate so participate, he will notice and be more nice to you and notice the efforts you put in! He's also funny. If you come to class and actually listen you will have no difficulty or surprises on the pop quizzes or wiring assignments! TAKE HIM! 100/100!

Really wants his students to succeed. You can tell he actually tries to make the subject matter relatable. Attendance matters so be sure to email if you plan on missing a lecture. He understands that life can happen sometimes so he's really considerate about that.

Great prof! Great lectures

Not the first time I've taken a class with this professor and hopefully won't be my last. Awesome lecturer! I really like the style he uses and the engagement in his class. I came out learning a lot even if this class was not the most interesting!

He is understanding of the pressures of online classes and is understanding of this. Straightforward with assignments and criteria and wants to see students succeed. Doesn't make lectures boring and will attempt to crack some jokes.

An all around good dude. Encourages you to participate and is far from boring. Clearly cares that you succeed and is clear with what he wants done on assignments. If you have the chance, take a class with him.

Professor tucker was an amazing prof. He really cared for his students, and made online class enjoyable. Assignments were very straightforward and easy to complete. Definitely take him for ENG 1101!!!!!

Pretty awesome professor. I only wish the grading criteria was more clear and that he recorded his online lectures.

BEST PROF! Lectures are easy to follow. If you pay decent attention youll do well on the assessments. Assignments are easy. Definitely schedule office hours with him to go over your assignments before you hand them in. Hes really helpful and caring and hell tell you where youve done well and what you need to work on. Overall great guy.

Had him during the summer semester, so this is a little bit of a late review. Really enjoyed the course and his teaching style. Very open and lets the class discuss freely. The homework and assignments weren't too hard either, considering the summer schedule is condensed. Would recommend this class (non-verbal) and this prof.

This prof was awesome, for a 7-10pm lecture we always got out early. Assignments are really easy and exams were not too bad. uses great examples in lectures and really nice person.

I recommand this class, best elective ever. Mr. Tucker is such a good and chill teacher. You can tell he cares a lot about his students mental health and he is a very understandable teacher. In my experience, his grading is fair and he gives great feedbacks after his reflection quiz. If I could I would re-take this class with the same teacher again

I took it as an elective but he was so nice and easy, the midterm and quizzes were super easy too as long as you understand the concept at least. would definitely take any class of his again he was an amazing prof. 10/10 recommend. I didn't get the textbook either and did fine.

Good prof. He is also kind and understanding. The midterms and final exam were also really easy. His lectures do get a little boring though, but he does let the class out earlier which is nice. Overall, good class.

He was Awsome. Class super easy and fun!

Professor Trevor is one of the best profs I've had. Hes there to teach and ti help. Attend all classes, pay attention and you'll be good to go.

Prof Tucker's class is very interactive. So, get ready to engage in discussion. He gives constructive feedback every time and is very accessible. Pay attention in class, revisit all the speeches and you're A-OK

The professor was very interesting and not very fast. The slides are all uploaded to brightspace so we can review them before the exam. We are given sample questions to review before the exam. And no homework.

Was a great teacher interesting class

Great personality and clearly wants the best for his students. Very easy to talk to and get help from and will explain in detail when needed. Overall, quite light work and not graded tough.

He wears alot of polo shirts. Made me cry once but apologized afterwards. Very interesting tho, lectures were kinda long but the cat videos were funny! Would take it again, maybe?

Great guy, technically the class ends around 10 but he tries to end it around 9. Relatively easy material, my recommendation is to be at class and engage in the topics ask questions and you will get the easiest A. All assessments are digital!

such a good prof omg i wish i had him for every class

like yea he says buy the textbook but I never used it and I was fine. the midterm and final are good if u listen and study. very considerate about the fact the exam was the last day and he moved it online

I'm like 4 classes into this mans course and all I have to say is everyone should have this man as a professor at some point. Absolute king. Type of prof you want to be friends with. Seriously awesome guy

His lectures tend to get boring since media ethics is generally a dry topic. However, if you go through his slides and the textbook you'll do great. Also, he only had two in class assignments which were open book and grades generously. The final for the class is also an open book exam. The professor really makes life easy for his students!

awesome prof. kinda funny sometimes. His communication classes were somewhat engaging at times. He is very nice and very chill. Easy marker in my opinion.

The professor is super engaging. Attend class, participate, and you'll sail through this easy A. Unstuck ai was a huge help for studying - definitely check it out!

Tucker is just a great human being. Treats students with care, respect and kindness, gives everyone chances to participate. Engagning and interesting lectures. Class consists of a presentation, pop quiz, essay and final. For the final, you choose 4 questions, min 300 words each. You also have to pick a book to present and write about.

Prof Tucker is just a great guy. You can tell he loves what he does and knows what he is talking about. He has such calming energy and a great lecturing voice. His lectures feel more like a conversation with a family member than a lecture with a professor. honestly so great; highly recommend his classes.

His kindness and humor are unforgettable, along with his funny jokes and valuable feedback.

Best prof you can ever have. he is so caring and takes the time to interact with students. His lectures are so fun, even if it's a night course I enjoyed every moment of it. If u listen and study, you should love this course. hes amazing.

Amazing professor! All of his lectures were super interesting and he knows how to keep people intrigued. He goes beyond just teaching course content, he includes personal stories that are really helpful for understanding new concepts. Super open to questions and very respectful.

I really enjoyed his lectures although he did get a bit off topic we didn't cover an insane amount in the class so it didn't matter all that much. He is very kind and his tests are very very easy as well as the final.
