Tinker is very quirky but means well. She gave us feedback on assignments but a lot of our smaller assignments were forgotten about as far as feedback. She knows a lot about journalism but isn't the best at explaining it.. she kind of has a hard time making her short lectures followable or interesting. Never really followed through on lesson plansJRN101 2017-04-06 17:20:29 +0000 UTC
Very interesting person on all levels, I have learnt a lot from her. Strongly advise to take a class with herJRNL201 2012-01-18 00:42:01 +0000 UTC
Tinker may be a little scatter brained but enjoyably so. It may seem like you arent learning a tun but by the end of the class you come away with more than you expect. Shes a fun lady who loves journalism and grammer!JRNU201 2007-04-17 12:00:33 +0000 UTC
Pretty nice professor. Can be kind of jumbled and confused at times, but overall gets the point across. The assignments are sometimes lame, but you do learn from them, even if it sucks doing them. Can be a hard grader, but will try to help you improve on whatever grade you got.JRN201 2006-04-21 01:34:06 +0000 UTC
