Reviews of professor Tiffany Kinney

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
One of the most organized online classes I've taken. She creates video introductions for each week to help guide you through the content. Always available during office hours for additional help.

This teacher showed me grace. I was on the verge of having to retake this class for a fifth time because I couldnt pull a B (needed for my major). She let me make-up discussion posts and turn in an assignment late so I didnt have to take the class again. I wish I took her the first time around.

She is kind and really wants everyone to have a good experience. If youre not a strong writer just ask for help. Stay on top of the reading and do your best. She appreciates people who try

I took Dr. Kinney for ENGL 111 and 112. She is one of the best professors I have ever had. She truly cares about her students and wants them to succeed. The only grades in this class are paper based, but she guides you through the papers so you get the best grade possible. She takes attendance, but is pretty lenient on it. I highly recommend her!

Dr. Kinney is a great professor for Scientific Writing. Her course criteria is clear and she explains all her expectations for each assignment. I feel this class prepared me for future research and science writing in my career. Definitely recommend Dr. Kinney and Scientific Writing for anyone!

There's around five papers/projects in all, with huge amounts of time to do them. The thing that irked me about her class was it was so participation heavy, and I was always told to "talk to my neighbor and analyze the text" like I was in high school. And the papers are so easy it feels like a waste of time + she takes forever to grade and nitpicks

Prof. Kinney is unlike other writing professors I've had. You won't be paying for a book just to read one chapter-- she provides most reading material. I highly recommend taking ENGL 425 with her, she is organized but keeps the classroom setting casual and fun. There was an emphasis on group participation which made the class very engaging.

The class itself is not difficult if you are ready to show up and participate. I bought two text-books but only used one, the rest of the reading was provided online. We wrote a handful of papers, 3 of which were basically the same paper but worded differently. She takes a long time to grade and nitpicks. Would not recommend this class.

I enjoyed this class! 10/10 would highly recommend. Especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, Dr. Kinney was always thorough with lessons and accessible for questions.

Dr. Kinney gives specific feedback on writing assignments and after implementing have truly improved my writing abilities. I also feel more confident in my writing because of her.
