Reviews of professor Timothy Burnside

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
You can tell that he cares that your actually learning. He's very relatable. I had him during the time of the coronavirus outbreak and he was incredibly understanding and accommodating. Super funny. All of the grades are discussions or essays and a group project. NO TESTS!

Tim is the best professor I've had at FSU. He's so knowledgeable and helpful especially if you go to office hours. He really cares about his students and explains concepts super well. The nicest guy ever and really funny I would take any class he taught. 10/10 recommend!!!

Really good professor. He will give you great feedback on anything and everything and his lectures are always entertaining. His grading criteria is clear too and is always open for you to send rough drafts to him before you submit things. Attendance is counted but you will enjoy coming to class. Easy class to get an A.

Hes a good teacher. The class is heavy writing but hes good with grading and isnt too harsh. Hes also really good about extra credit and makes things interesting.

Took him for Gender class. He told us the class was going to really suck, and he wasn't lying. It'll also feel like you have a paper due nearly every week. The class is unpredictable, and very disorganized. He's a good guy, but doesn't communicate the best sometimes. I like him on a personal level, but I wouldn't take his class again.

4 absences in the summer allowed Hilarious and fun. Great guy. Homework was reading ... a lot. Maybe because it was the summer. Great lectures. Great topics. Long class can get boring though. Gives lots of feedback on papers. No textbook. Decent amount of writing. 4 little discussion papers, 2 bigger comparative essays, and a midterm/final.

If you have the option to take this class, do it. Very easy class, weighted mostly on 4 very short papers. More importantly, lectures are enjoyable and he makes even the driest topics funny and interesting. Highly recommend taking.
