Reviews of professor Hugh MacIntosh

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
not very friendly or helpful in office hours. Makes you feel bad about yourself and is very picky when marking.

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Hugh made all the material understandable and the midterm was clearly based on everything within the lectures. He uses clear diagrams and PowerPoints and it is easy to understand concepts. If you have to take Biology, definitely choose Hugh!

Hugh was super genuine and caring! Probably the best Science prof I've had at UVIC so far. His lectures were super clear and concise and he takes time to draw and label important information which is very helpful. There is a lot of material to memorize but the lecture midterm/final questions were fair. (Lab component of the course was quite hard)

He was very respectful and caring of his students. He makes really good notes and explains topics good. I think the midterm was fair and if you take good notes from his lectures, you can do good. I really enjoyed his portion of the course.

Hugh's lectures are really well laid out and easy to follow, and he does a great job of explaining things. It's clear that he really cares about what he is teaching and just wants students to enjoy learning.

Hugh is the best professor Ive ever had at Uvic. Hes kind, friendly, approachable, and a great teacher. He mixes lectures with in class discussions & uses a LOT of visuals. The course material itself is interesting and even though it was an 8:30 it was my favourite class

Hugh MADE this class. He made Inverts interesting and provided many diagrams, videos, and always was check-in on the labs. The lectures were always interesting and he was always willing to help answer questions or clarify concepts during lecture. Tests were fair and on course material explained in class.
