Student Comments on Spring Term 2015 Teachers


The Instructor Relations Committee collected feedback from students on the Spring Term 2015 courses and instructors. The Spring Term once again saw a host of New-to-OLLI at Duke instructors who received very favorable feedback. Here’s a sample of what students had to say about their experiences:

“This was one of the best OLLI courses I have taken. I truly hated to have the class come to an end.“ 

(History & Current  Affairs – New Instructor)

“I thoroughly enjoyed this course; the exercises were varied and fun and I felt empowered to continue many of them at home.” (Lifestyles – New Instructor)

“Amazing amount of information which was very well organized. I learned a great deal.” 

(Economic, Financial & Retirement – New Instructor)

“A very enjoyable class that gave me some new insights and perspectives, as I expected and hoped it would.” 

(Performing Arts – New Instructor)

“The instructor for this course was absolutely outstanding and made the course interesting as well as a learning experience.” (History & Current Affairs – New Instructor)

“My participation dates back to DILR and I freely say that for the most part, this is one of the most enjoyable courses I have taken.” 

(Performing Arts – New Instructor)

“I thoroughly enjoyed the course. The instructor got the class actively involved and was very responsive to questions. Her passion for the field was contagious!” 

(Performing Arts – New Instructor)

“The instructor and his volunteer assistants were above and beyond in their commitment to the course and their willingness to help those of us less gifted in computer skills and vocabulary.  I am most appreciative.” 

(Computers & Photography – New Instructor)

“Excellent course and superb instructor! Definitely jump on any other course he proposes.” 

(Economics, Financial & Retirement – New Instructor)

 “The instructors were wonderful and really knew their stuff. Most OLLI courses are enjoyable and informative. This course was all that, plus a great deal of fun.” 
(Lifestyles – New Instructors)

 “This course is superb, both because of the instructor's command of the subject matter, as well as the very timely nature of the subject matter.” 

(Economic, Financial & Retirement – New Instructor)

 Our sincere thanks to all Spring Term instructors, especially those teaching at OLLI for the first time!
