Honestly, she is amazing. She is so excited about teaching the material it makes you want to learn. She replies super quickly to emails and helps with literally everything. I had her proofread the first page of my midterm and she helped me so much. She's also very understanding and does not want her students to fail. If you have the chance to select a TA pick, Janice because she was truly amazing. The class consisted of a midterm, a selfie (worth 10%), and a final. Both midterm and final are given probably a little over 2 weeks in advance. And don't be afraid to go to office hours Professor Tutino will literally break anything down that you don't understand. Her accent is also really cute and makes it more fun to listen to lectures. Make sure you take a class with her because she will shape your writing for harder classes to come.
I found this class super interesting, and the content was made even better with Professor Tutino. Not only did she exude high fashion, but she was evidently extremely passionate about the subject matter and that manifested in engaging lectures. She’s intelligent, witty and no nonsense. I could see however, someone who doesn’t care about history, being bothered by the workload and professor Tutino’s seriousness. She doesn’t cotyle and she doesn’t “baby” unlike other professors, so If that is what you are looking for, she is probably not the professor for you. However, I found her advice helpful and her support abundant.
In terms of discussion, they seemed wildly unhelpful. My TA was kind, but if you go to lecture and you read the textbook (or you have a basic understanding of the content) you will likely find the discussion unhelpful and time consuming as well.
She was very picky on the midterm. I went into her office hours and she asked me "is this English?" when reviewing my paper for the midterm. Your grade is based on 2 papers and 1 selfie you take with an artifact (you have to write about it later). I don't understand the good reviews because she will say one thing in lecture and if you write about it, she will mark it wrong. This class is too difficult for a lower division. She even said "you might have a hard time if you do not know anything about European history..." like that's your job to teach us?? It's just unnecessarily difficult.
