“I genuinely felt excitement going to Professor Verville's class and honestly never dreaded going. Out of all the professors I've had at UT, he is denitely in my top favorites. He actually bonded with students and was able to teach in a way that makes learning enjoyable and understandable. He always laid out what we need to know and stuck with that, never any trick questions or things that other professors do to try to make their students fail and feel bad for things that weren't their fault. I would always take Verville again”
“Absolutely phenomenal instructor, one of the best Economics professors I have ever had.”
“Professor Verville was an excellent teacher, and his instruction really enhanced my consumption of the course material. I believe that he has potential to be a great educator. He created a casual yet informative classroom environment, and was extremely knowledgeable about its content. He made himself available for his students when the need arose, and made class enjoyable with his teaching style.”
“probably one of the best instructors I've ever had, I felt like you really read the room and gave us the material in a very digestible manor, and also applied the topics to the real world that helped a lot with my understanding in this course, which you taught more classes.”
“Honestly, I have no feedback. You were a great instructor and I LOVED how your classes were always well structured and so concise and productive. I never felt like I walked out of class and I felt like I didn't learn anything that day. Very easy to talk to you and you were very understanding if anything came up.”
