Reviews of professor Elisabeth Veilleux

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
She is accessible and understanding. However, she always use french in her teaching, making it hard for me as a beginner to understand and learn.

I took both FRSL 101 and FRSL 102 with her, she's really nice and understandable. She uses lots of body gestures when she speaks French and tries to let you understand. Easy quizzes (if you prepared), useful slides, recommend!!

Really great professor! She always had a great sense of humor and is very skilled in teaching French as a second language

Good and Funny lecturer. Really cares about her students and give effective feedback, but only teaches FRSL 101/102. May need to have some French intuition when doing the final. (Well, sometimes just cannot hear the difference in phonetic pronunciation). Group projects are kinda time-consuming and embarrassing, seem like unnecessary for me.

Prof Elisabeth will be a great teacher and she really cares about the performance of her students, she's also new at McGill. Def would take her class again! This class is easy but only if you stay on top of the work (which isn't much). For the quizzes, literally all you need to do is read whatever pages she tells you to read in the prev lec slides

Honestly one of the rare hidden gems at McGill. What can be said? She's intelligent, creative and she actually loves to teach! When these qualities combined, you get awesomely designed, precise& effective courses with her full support at all times. I wish more profs could be as well-rounded as she is.

Veilleux is interesting to say the least. The first few weeks of class, she seems nice and approachable. However, as the semester advanced she was much more cold and would even make fun of students for getting an answer wrong, sometimes even condescendingly switching to English to do so. You can get an A but it'll be morally painful.
