Reviews of professor Tim Bell

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
So here's the thing, Tim isn't an easy professor. He expects a lot out of his students but will give excellent feedback and clear lectures. His media genre classes are very informative and interesting, absolutely worth the effort he expects out of you.

Professor Bell is a great teacher, watching film is my favorite class so far. He gives great feedback and is one of my only professors that genuinely cares about his students. The content is enjoyable and he's very understanding! Our assignments are a little time consuming but not very hard.

Please don't take this class, this was not what I thought it would be. It was unnecessarily hard and everything from HW to essays was graded 2-4 weeks later than the syllabus states. When I tried to communicate with him about my grades he made false promises. The films watched are hard to get through and understand. Please,  don't take this class.

Tim is an amazing professor, especially with his higher level courses. He is not an easy grader but incredibly fair and gives good feedback. He sets clear expectations that are pretty easy to follow and the readings he chooses are actually very interesting. He is very funny and kind and cares a lot about his students' opinions.

I took this class as a gen-ed for credit thinking it'd be easy. It was not. There was so much work. Tim also might seem like a nice guy but he's not. I bet he was bullied as a kid. He doesn't reply to emails and takes forever to grade assignments. He took a month to grade a 20pt assignment, hence I had no idea what my grade was in the class.

he somehow made an interesting topic extremely boring. Killed my passion for media. I had an 8am with him and I never went. waste of time ugh

Prof. Bell was nice, but this was the first time teaching this class. He seemed a little lost. There are 30 point assignments every week which are graded by the AIs, not Bell. He does his lecture once a week with a guest speaker taking the other lecture. Assignments are done in discussions. If you put forth effort it should be fairly easy.

Tim is awesome. He's a pretty hard grader, and there's a lot of work in the class, but you feel like you're learning a ton and he genuinely cares about you doing well in his class. He really likes if you participate!
