Reviews of professor Andrew Tompkins

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
He is extremely chill, and understands that not everybody taking his class is a history major, so he does not expect you to remember dates. To review tests, he does fun activities he learned when he was a bartender, and gives you a review sheet, which he specifically states that anything that's not on the sheet, will not be on the test.

History 207 with Dr. Tompkins was awesome! If you have a chance to take a class with him I would recommend. He is such a fair professor and grader. The only major writing comes from the reading responses he gives which are not that difficult. Textbooks are necessary to buy, but are inexpensive. Great class.

In Dr. Tompkin's HIST150 class, he is more focused on overarching themes instead of rote memorization. He encourages class participation and always makes his office hours known in case anyone has any questions. His expectations are clear and is really good at getting tests and papers back in a timely manner. On nice days, he likes to teach outside.

Dr. Tompkins is the BEST. Simple lectures just pay attention, take notes, and you'll do fine. Plenty of options for extra credit throughout the semester. Exams are simple and directly from the notes. Always available for questions outside of class.
