If you (like myself) like your professor to be organized and to present the class material in an efficient way then DONT take any classes with Tangherlini! Sure he is fun and interesting, but that doesnt really mean all that much when you are trying to figure out how to write a 10 page paper when nothing has been covered! Trust me, it is not worth it, the class is not as easy as people say.

Timmy teaches us about norse gods and trolls. Not only does he teach those things, Timmy IS those things. HE IS A GOD and the ULTIMATE TROLL. Funniest professor I've ever had and ever will have. 10/10 laugh your röv off every class period. I measured the joke rate in this class and he pops one, on average, every 6.69 seconds! Not only that, he trolls you hard. Prepare for the ultimate trollride of your life. If you are genuinely want to learn about Scandinavian Studies, you will get that for sure. He is very knowledgable about the subjects. BUT, if you want an easy and enjoyable GE, this is a MUST COP.

Most hilarious professor I have ever had. There was not one lecture where he didn't have the class cracking up. The man makes you want to go to lecture, and he is thoroughly entertaining as well as educational and makes his lectures accessible to all. Truly a genius. Also very easy. My only complaint is that he assigned an unrealistic amount of reading each week.

Professor Tangherlini is hands-down one of the best professors I've ever taken a class with at UCLA.
