Comment:
Louis is so passionate about what he is teaching that it makes you want to listen. He explains things so thoroughly and tells you exactly what he expects. You really do need to show up and listen, but ecology with him was easily one of my favourite classes. He really cares about his students. Would highly recommend him and his classes to anyone!

AMAZING LECTURER! You learn so much. You do have to work to get an A in the class, however, if you attend class and pay attention, and review your notes daily, the class will be easy. There are no trick questions on exams. He does expect a lot of detail on written response on exam, but just put down what you know, and you'll be fine!

Comment:
Louis is very enthusiastic for this class, and if you are an animal bio major you will love his lectures. I am CMMB and not a fan of learning how animals evolved. However, you must go to lecture, take good notes, and study well in advance of the midterm and final. He marks ridiculously tough, and isn't very open to amending your grade. 6/10

I have had Louis for 2 classes and he's a really great prof. If you take ecology and/or animal body plans make sure you go on the field trip! He gives fair but hard tests; do not waste time reading the books and make sure you write everything he says down, not just what he puts on the board. Study your class notes and you'll be fine.

Comment:
I have had multiple classes with him (not by choice). He is extremely unhelpful and will not answer your questions straight. He assigns assignments having a due date during finals the week prior. His exams are ridiculous, having multiple choice options a-j, choosing from options 1 through 6, and he is very picky with his written answers. Avoid him.

I thought the teaching in class was ok. I did find him condescending when trying to clarify seminar assignments. I am not a fan of this teacher at all! My advice? try to avoid this teacher

Really interesting in lecture and easy to understand. Seminar assignments are tough and when you ask him for help he is very unhelpful and condescending. His tests were ridiculous. He lecture basic concepts and principles and tests on very obscure examples.

louis made this class a lot of fun and you can tell he loves teaching. his exams aren't too hard, as long as you know the terms and concepts. there are a lot of multiple choice choices, so know your stuff. every week, he had the "thursday edition" and showed videos to the class. awesome teacher! definitely recommend.

Take this class correspondence if you want any chance of getting a decent grade. Most horrible teacher I've had as of yet! The seminars are a waster and no matter how hard you try, you get a bad mark!

Hardest marker ever! Even if the answer is correct, he'll take marks off for "not enough detail" even though the notes are crappy to begin with.

i took a few courses with Louis, and he is a great prof. Makes a LOT of sense, although can he sometime be hard to find. A little picky in marking, but at least there are no surprises. Highly recommended. He's energetic, too.
