Reviews of professor Tim Arnold

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
All we do it learn about ADs from 20 years ago. He is so outdated its not even funny anymore, he doesn't know anything about social media or influencer marketing (2 chapters from our course) Never showed current ADs or addressed any racial issues that are clearly represented in today's ADs. Did not learn anything new. Left the class feeling annoyed

He makes us do a lot of "busy work" which I hated, I really don't feel like I learned that much and often class felt like a waste of time. He was very kind, caring and quite funny, but the class personally felt a little scattered. Class time never felt productive and the assignments were never clear. He is also a very harsh grader.

experienced and passionate guy but pretty outdated. "lectures" were copy and pasted from the textbook, which we only used twice. shows us ads from the 80s and his own articles. almost all assignments are partner/group work. the final project was fun to do but the others i didn't find beneficial. his due dates are at weird times but he's flexible.

Best ad teacher at UT. Professor Arnold truly knows the field of advertising and has the experience to back it up. For any students interested in copywriting this is who you want to take. He gives great feedback and helps you build a portfolio. If you are passionate about advertising then it is super easy to learn a lot from Professor Arnold.
