Reviews of professor Tiffany Dykstra-Devette

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She tells u from the beginning u will read a lot in this class and its true, but if you know how to skin through you have nothing to worry about. The final is cumulative. Final essay... better get to it with at least a month in advance, know your terms and make an outline it will help a lot. Shes amazing and helpful, fast responder and amazing!

Monotone speech, full of filler words. Lack of enthusiasm. Wait until she says the next word or complete a sentence!

Took her for 406 during COVID-19 and hardest class I've taken. A little disorganized when it came to the final projects. Video lectures were intense because textbook is dense and hard to follow. Positive is she is approachable outside of class for extra help. Midterm, Final Exam. Final Powerpoint, and Final Paper, super challenging.

You'll have no problem passing her class if you just do the work. She is an easy grader and you only see her once a week. Warning: you do have to read a lot in her class. She gives out a weekly quiz but it's fairly easy. Also, you have to write three papers.

She is one of the best professors I have ever had. She is very bright and cares a lot about her students. People say that she is hard, but it's the work that is hard (upper division duh), not her grading. She grades based on rubric - follow rubric & actually try and you'll pass. I really respect her and she helped me a lot outside of class.
