Reviews of professor Tyler Johnson

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
It was supposed to be 2 classes a week for 75 minutes, but when we got moved online, he made it 4 times a week for 30-40 minutes (not mandatory). The lectures were not very helpful though, I used the notes and past AP stat knowledge and I got through. He's a nice guy... but if you aren't a stats person, I'd recommend taking this with someone else.

I have a lot of respect for Professor Johnson. He seems to really care about students and their grades. He moves through content really fast and I have had lots of trouble keeping up. As far as content, ST 370 is my hardest class, but he is really helpful and will take the time to make sure you understand. The grade is only from quizzes and tests.

Im disappointed at everyone giving him bad ratings. I passed with an A, w/ no stats background and 2-4 hrs of work in per week. He changed the class bc it wasnt working and hugely curved the whole class. Tons of resources were available, too. Overall a good guy. If youre thinking about taking him, dont listen to the negativity.

One of the most difficult classes I have ever taken and it wasn't because of the course content. Makes the class 10x harder than it should be and still assigned group projects during a pandemic. Too many lecture videos that don't even help. I will save you some time by saying DON'T TAKE THIS CLASS WITH TYLER JOHNSON. all the ratings say the truth.

The tests were extremely hard. I know several people that struggled badly. He curved the grades down to where if you made a 51 you passed with a D. The 3 hour lecture videos posted do not prepare you for the quizzes, and the quizzes do not prepare you for the test. Wait until its back in person to take 311 with Johnson. What an awful class.

Awful. DONT TAKE HIS CLASS PLZ!!! There are lots of lecture videos which cannot help u understand material better. Those tests are much more difficult than weekly quizzes and THERE IS NO CURVE ON TESTS! Students from last semester said he will invade your privacy to catch you using CHEGG! lol

was receptive to feedback and good at communicating with students, but the issue was that the required material wasn't enough to understand the course so the tests were too hard. go to the problem sessions, reviews and practice problems to learn best. his TAs annie tang and nic larsen were much better at explaining the material.

This class is fairly fast moving but tyler makes it very easy to understand all the material. He answers questions and tries his best to explain everything. He was a super enjoyable and funny teacher and his class was entertaining all semester. I recommend taking him for this class or germ 112&150! He's great!
