Best professor I have had yet. went to after-hours all the time and he loved to talk to me and still comes over to talk to me about how I am doing months after I took his class. he really does care and explains everything amazingly and in a way you enjoy learning. wish I had him again this year

Pete is great, he's really entertaining and makes learning economics fun. He's not like other professors where they're lectures are solely from the textbook; rather he teaches in a much entertaining way through stories and sometimes outrageous comparisons/examples and that's because he's obsessed with what he teaches

Reading the textbook and looking stuff up online gets you further than listening to him, but at least he tries to help, I guess. He just has a tendency to make things seem harder than they are.

Dr. Ibbott has been by far my favourite prof since i started studying economics. Currently in my fourth year, finishing my thesis for HSP Econ, and Dr. Ibbott has offered to be my supervisor. I would recommend this class to anyone, very highly.

Comment:

He hand wrote all lectures on an overhead and didn't post so you should probably go to class. He loves economics so if you try to take an interest in the course and go to his office hours your grade will reflect that. Don't ask him questions he answered in lectures, he'll most likely call you out. Overall good professor, very funny.

I took his course in 201516 fall term and the course is soooo awesome! It is relaxing on his classes and he gave great suggestions on learning economics both in undergrad level and graduate level. I would also say he is the best economic prof I have met at Western.

Clearly very interested in his teaching duties. He made it his mission to convert the class into econ-enthusiasts. It didn't work but good for him for trying. He's interesting, he's very easy.

If you are not a natural learner and you have to work hard in university, you will have to work extra hard in his class. I got a good mark but it was very difficult. He doesn't want to be there, he doesn't test how he teachers and he doesn't like to help you during his office hours. He is funny and interesting
