Historical instructor
Original student reviews · all captured dates
Feedback on assignments was clearly AI-generated, and often completely contradicted the professor's rubric. He didn't do anything to facilitate proper discussions in section meetings, was very hard to contact outside of class, and essentially had no idea what he was doing. He made me rethink my entire major.Rate My Professors ↗
Kyle was one of the worst TAs I've ever had the displeasure of working with. His standards were entirely different than the professor's, so I was often receiving inaccurate, poor grades in the class on the very few assignments throughout the semester. He also struggled to create a positive environment for any sort of discussion.Rate My Professors ↗
