Reviews of professor Francis Valiquette

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Francis gives you all the tools you need for success. The combination of his lectures, in-class worksheets, homework, accessibility outside class, and exam reviews are all helpful in both understanding the material and preparing for his exams. I definitely hope to take this professor again in the future.

For his first time teaching this course at MU, Dr. Valiquette did an amazing job! Any question I had for his class, he was always willing to answer even when he didn't have office hours . This class is challenging but he is great at breaking down the complex concepts. Would definitely take again.

He gives examples and then erases them and says it was a bad example all class. Gives homework and exams that have nothing to do with what he teaches. If you actually want to learn youll spend all semester in the Math tutoring room.

I understand people's complaints with Professor Valiquette. However, trust me, if you want to pass this class, you HAVE to go to his office hours. Trust me, I was one of very few students who would go to him for help, in addition to being one of the few who passed. If you want to succeed, go to office hours. he is very kind and understanding.

This is by far the worst professor I've ever had. He gives quizzes every class and doesn't go over any homework. When you email him he won't answer and then says he won't baby you during this course. He also just writes on the board and doesn't explain anything! I'm a straight A student, but this guy is going to be the reason my GPA drops!

Horrible at explaining the material. Difficult to understand and not helpful answering questions or outside of class.

Did not enjoy having him as a professor, made it super difficult for me to learn what was happening, and I had him for two classes but had to drop both because of how difficult he made them. Took them with other professors and passed much easier.

Do not take his class. All he does is give quiz after quiz and his lectures cover a handful of problems before making us essentially "fly solo" and do independent problems and we're up the creek if we have trouble. The exams, I never took because I withdrew after he accused me of cheating (with no proof) because my work was "suspicious" on a quiz.

he is terrible at explaining things and his tests and quizzes are absolutely nothing like the homework

I had initially tested out of pre-calc and decided to retake it as a review. This class was challenging because he would test us on information from 2 weeks ago. His exams covered weeks worth of information, his reviews had at least 80 questions on them, and he never did a test review day which made it impossible to thoroughly prepare.
