Elai is an incredible professor and a great human. It is evident that he wants to make an impact at WashU and leave students feeling hopeful for the future. He cares about the work he does and the student he teaches. He values learning over grades and is flexible and accessible both in providing extra help and deadline extensions. Highly recommend!

Best Professor I have had at WashU, very engaging lecturer and open to discussion with students. Would take every class with him if I could!

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
His lectures are really easy to follow along and engaging. Elai is extremely approachable and helpful, and he genuinely cares about the success of his students. The workload for the class is manageable and the class content is interesting. One of the most enjoyable classes at WashU.

Hands down the BEST professor I have ever had at WashU! Even if you are not interested in the topic, you should take at least one class with him. He makes seemingly mundane material fascinating and I looked forward to his lectures every week. Lectures are engaging and easy to follow, offers generous extensions, and assignments are reasonable.

The BEST professor I have ever had!! Elai is so incredibly knowledgable and makes even the most difficult international relations concepts easy to understand. The class is NOT that much work at all. He is one of the kindest and most accessible professors, and is so invested in his students' success. TAKE HIS CLASS!!!!

I wish every class I took at WashU was like the one I took with him. Learned a ton, had to put in work but nothing that felt like grunt work, and actually enjoyed lectures.
