Reviews of professor Philip Tite

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Stay far far away. He has mandatory discussions on blackboard sometimes twice a week with a minimum word count of 1000 words. The tests are only two questions, however, the two questions are supposed to be in essay form. No extended response answers. Essay. He over works the students like crazy.

Mr. Tite was a little unorganized at times, but most of us have been unorganized at some point in our life; we're human. I loved that he was just a real person. What I also liked about Dr. Tite was his clear enthusiasm for the material, heavy knowledge base, and he graciously integrated even the most banal of student responses. Ps he's cute.

Dr. Tite was a pretty good professor but gives a discussion post every week with a minimum of 500 words and reply to 3 other classmates with a minimum of 100 words. He gives 4 tests that have multiple extensive essay questions and grades extremely hard. It's a lot of tedious work that comes with this online class and you will be working hard.

He is clearly a man who cares about the quality of education, despite what many reviewers may say. One thing which goes severely underappreciated, is how much bonus opportunity he gives. All the tests have bonus opportunities, and there are regular bonus point assignments throughout the semester. Dr Phil clearly cares about his students education.

Is really nice. His class is very discussion base which helps better understand the material. However, it is Dec. 29th and I still haven't gotten my final grade for his class. So expect slow grading and having to go talk to him the following term.

He's a genuinely nice guy and there isn't a ton of homework compared to other classes. He's an incredibly slow grader and his standards can be ridiculously high. One of my classmates says he expects graduate work for an undergraduate class. He also doesn't write the tests until a couple days before the test so studying can feel impossible.

Dr. Tite is a very kind and genuine person. He also isn't a bad teacher at all, his classes just have several major flaws. He is the slowest grader i have had in my 4 years here, the only thing we got back was the midterm. You cannot skip class, its like 40 percent of your grade. Finally, the in-class final is obnoxiously long at 6 pages.

Tite is one of my least favorite profs since being at wwu. His grading was so slow to the extent we didnt get the midterm back until a day before the final. In my opinion a prof shouldnt hand test containing 3 essays for each 25 students if he cant grade it before the next test. Expect graduate level work in an intro class. Pick a diff GUR.
