Reviews of professor T. J. Tallie

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I LOVE TALLIE take him as many times as you can. He completely revolutionized my view of Africana History and I adore him. He is hilarious and so entertaining and you will want to come to class I promise. Not too hard, but take some good notes WITH CITATIONS throughout the semester, you'll thank yourself on the papers

I absolutely love Professor Tallie. He is funny and his class is always fun. He really knows how to relate his lectures to our lives and keeps us on our toes because of his energetic personality. There is a lot of reading, but the essays and tests are exactly what we learn in class (he doesn't try to trick anyone). I would take him again any time.

Super nice guy with clear grading expectations. Lectures and teaches Zulu. Make sure you take notes to what he says. He kinda speaks fast but always goes over things. He will make your day better because of his amazing personalty!!

Professor Tallie is honestly one of my favorite professors ever. He is so funny, his lectures are super entertaining and is incredibly honest and real. Every assignment is super straightforward and he is always willing to help, no assignments feel like busywork. Fair amount of reading but it is super useful for midterm and final paper.

Lots of reading but Tallie is great, he's very fun and has lots of energy. Kind of hard to find outside of class but very understanding and caring towards students. Highly recommend his classes, very interesting material.

Professor Tallie is hands down one of the BEST teachers I've had at USD. Super knowledgeable about the material and just overall a genuine person. Show up to class, participate and do the readings if you want to do well. Super understanding and truly cares about his students. Im not a history major but I would take another class of his. RECOMMEND!

If you ever have the opportunity to be a part of Prof. Tallie's class then you will do nothing but grow as a person. With that being said, you must read... A LOT. My advice is to simply engage in the class and you will be fine. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
