He refuses to assist students going through difficult situations and comes across as someone who doesn’t understand real life economics despite being an Econ professor. He also overestimates the difficulty of his class so constantly creates stress for students. He mandates and grades on attendance too. I’m sure he’s a nice guy but for a professor, I wouldn’t recommend him

Pros: Knew the subject well
Cons: Could not articulate his points. Stammered too often
Good sideline professor. Meaning, you have to do most of the work yourself and when question arises, consult professor.

He sucks. He stutters, he's boring, and it's literally impossible to sit through his class without falling asleep. If you're gonna take him, just do the readings and skip the lectures... i didn't learn shit in class all semester.

He is knowledgeable about the subject but can be tangential when he strays to talk about some random stuff related to the topic.

Get someone else, he just doesn't know how to teach and is flat out annoying to listen to.

Chris Proulx has no clue how to teach a class. Although he has great knowledge of the subject, that knowledge is not easily transferred to the rest of us. Plus, he probably has the douchiest personality of all time.
