Reviews of professor Tysen Ficklin

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I had Ficklin in his first semester teaching Business Computing at GU and he was an awesome teacher. The class material sucked but he made it bearable. Attendence is mandatory, but he takes attendence every class using a Kahoot. (The true sign of a legend) We had two exams and two projects plus homework as our grade and he didn't grade too hard.

Very helpful in office hours and there is a video of you need help with your assignemnts.  Very chill guy and just grades off of how it grades in canvas.  Recommend for sure.

This class is asynch, so you never even see the profs face. That said, he provides office hours for you to get help. The course is as easy as it is important, and you really don't need to be in person for it!

Great teacher, great class. Hard at some points but find someone else in the class and work on the assignments with them. He's super understanding and always wants to help you unless it comes to the deadline. You have a lot of time to do it, just do it on time otherwise your grade will tank

Prof was super helpful during office hours. The course is difficult in itself. Find friends and work with them to complete this course. It is mandatory for business students so just stay on top of the work and take the exams asap.

Class is completely online through virtual program, Ficklin will help if you ask and even adjust grade if program grades something poorly. Class itself is a lot of work and very challenging.

Business computing was so easy because the answers to the homework are at the bottom of the page. Tysen is so fun and always starts class with a kahoot. I didn't know how to do a test and he helped me with the whole thing, so if you ever get confused, go to his office hours. There's a lot of homework, but it's all pretty easy.

This semester, class was done all asynchronously. Did not meet the professor one time. Easy course with 10 units that you had to complete by the end of the semester. One midterm and one final exam. Sometimes will have a final project. Helpful to understand what Excel can do.

I took his online business course and it was great! I had already taken an excel class so I was ahead of the game but all the homework and exams were very manageable and made it easy to learn.

Prof. Ficklin is such a dad. He is so nice and his class was super manageable. I have no bad things to say about him.

Ficklin is a great choice for business computing. The material is pretty dull, but he does a good job of keeping you engaged. He's also very approachable and a great all-around guy. I would definitely recommend.
