Reviews of professor Myles Maillet

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Worst prof Ive ever had. Not student centred. Seems to care most about himself when teaching. I dint know where his positive reviews come from. Himself maybe. His exams are confusing and jokes are stupid.

Felt the need to add this review after seeing negative ones. Had him Spring 2019 for this class and it was my favourite class of my degree - engaging and likeable professor, nice person as well. Not sure why the negative reviews are so bad...

I wouldnt have expected the exam focus to be on what is was based on what he emphasizes in class. He, like some careless profs, doesnt seem to care about teaching or student success. Will take 300B with Medler, not Myles over the summer.

11/10 would recommend Myles, especially as a statistics prof. I was so nervous about completing 300B online and condensed into 2 months, but Myles did phenomenal job supporting us. He answers questions clearly and explains until everyone understands. Quirky and fun to listen to. He is kind and down-to-earth and wants his students to succeed.

Myles has been my favourite instructor in the psyc department. These two stat courses ended up being my favourite courses that I've taken at UVic. He is so caring and always responds to emails quickly. I found the timing for exams this time was much better. The only downfall.. he made me addicted to iced coffees ;)

Myles explains the difficult concepts well, effectively, and politely until the students understand the material. This made statistics bearable and simpler (which says a lot considering how much I tend to struggle with stats). He makes time for questions if needed otherwise no time is wasted in lectures. Highly recommend taking classes with him.

Myles is a fantastic prof, my favourite one at UVic. He takes the time to help you understand and genuinely cares. The course relies on a lot of conceptual understanding because of how this course transfers to the field of psychology, while some people may diss Myles for that, I completely disagree. Best prof around, hands down. You won't regret it

Myles gave confusing lectures and difficult exams. There were several instances when he left class or office hours over an hour early for no reason and stopped taking questions. Errors in quizzes, assignments, labs, and exams. Didn't take the time to clearly answer emailed questions. Unprofessional/lazy teaching of the course. Very disappointing.

Lectures are light-hearted and he tries to engage with students a lot. Classes have a general outline that goes through the main ideas of the chapter, then branches out through discussions with the class. Works well with the type of assignments you're graded on but these assignments arent handled well. Very heavy workload and questionable grading.
