Comment:

This online course is easy as hell. 5 assignments that are opened every 2 weeks, answers are very easy to find. I think he changed his previous curriculum which is why there are some negative reviews in previous years. no final! no midterm! i may have gotten 108% TAKE TULLY

Comment:

Even though I like Professor Tully as a person, his online class was stressful and not an easy A. You really have to go above and beyond community college standards to impress him as his expectations are absurdly high. I've heard that Professor Yuen and Tarikh were much easier and you actually learn in those classes. Take their classes instead.

Comment:

Great professor. 5 midterms. But you'll do fine has long as you read over you notes. He is very straight forward he tells you what to expect and what to stupid. Makes everything very clear. Final has a big impact on your final grade. Don't pass the final don't pass the class. But final is the same length as the midterms so you'll do fine.

He is such a kind person. Very patient and always tries to be understanding. It's a show up and listen, take notes kinda class. I'd probably recommend it. He let's you out early a lot too

If you just sit in class and listen for a bit you'll be sure to pass the class. The class itself was very easy and did require a lot of time to receive a good grade. There's like 5 HW, 5 midterms, and one final. HW is super easy where it either takes 5 minutes alone to complete or in class while midterms and final is all MC and no writing.

Comment:

Please do not take him. He's rude, does''t remembers anyone's name (regardless of how many times you have talked to him or he's called on you). Everything is a "private conversation" even if you're asking when the assignment is due. Doesn't gives eye contact and says he's "Too old" to go back to show you notes during slides, he goes too fast!

Comment:

P: No community service. Do the reading and attend every class and you should be fine. C: You need to read everything. He answers questions half the time; and never about anything in the book or a prior lecture. He's extremely unhelpful, will answer a question with a question. Demands perfect attendance, often cuts classes extremely short.

Comment:

I know De Aza doesn't really have good POLI 1 professors because most of them require you to do some community service, research papers, and discussion. However, in Tully's class, you won't deal with any of them mentioned above. Simply six tests, easy homework, and the final exam. I would say his class is very simple and definitely not a bad choice

Comment:

It's a good class, and I would recommend it only if you are willing to attend all the lectures. Take notes and pay attention and you are guaranteed at least a B. He really tries to encourage students to work hard in school (sounds cliche but it's kinda helpful to be honest) While trying to be very understanding and kind.

Comment:

I wouldn't recommend this teacher solely based upon the fact that he would constantly get off topic and ramble on about pointless things that had nothing to do with poli sci. His tests were alright(he drops one),and he lets us go early every day. Hates when people leave to use the bathroom. Take another teacher if you can.

Comment:

I was lucky to have Dave in his class. His class was very easy. In the end of my days, I'd recommend Dave for those who need a good grade must take him. He will teach you very important and good material, lecture on the board and slides. You take good notes, then you study from the notes and the textbook, too. Show that you will do great!

He is really nice and knowlegable. He really cares about teaching and it shows. He is one of the best teachers I have ever had at De Anza. He drops one of the exams and his test are easy as long as you take good notes and read the text.

Mr. Tully is an awesome teacher. He really cares for the students to learn. His exams are fairly easy and grades reasonably. Must attend class and take notes. Be ready to read and use study guides its very helpful.

Comment:

At first, Dave was hard to follow until I found him very easy in the Fall Quarter 2012. He's very easy to follow and understand. His exams are very easy and his class was very easy. I got a B in his class. If need a good grade (A or B), take him! He's here to teach you and show you the slides and the lecture. Just go to his class, attend and take notes from the board and the slide. Then study from the notes and the textbook for every exam, then you'll do fine!

Average. Very challenging material, but if you work hard, you'll reap what you sow. Show up every day, and on time, or you will miss material that WILL be on the test.

Comment:

I don't like Political Science at all, but his leactures and slides really helped. Just put a little effort and pay attention and you should get a freakin A or B. Its literally easy. most questions on the exams are off his notes and slides.I actually enjoyed class with him. If i Could I would take another class with him.

I dropped a political science class before, because I hate politics. Tully made it interesting and relevant. Class is based on lecture notes and chapter readings. This is college, expect readings and notes.
