Her lectures are always interesting and I find that she makes learning both fun and enjoyable. Her class is what I look most forward to every week!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"dr-deborah-landry\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dr. Deborah Landry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cShe (Deborah Landry) is committed to \u201cdecolonizing the classroom\u201d, she is open to feedback, she offers to teach us what we want to know, and she is very understanding when we request extensions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cProfessor Landry cares for her students and puts our well-being first. She has provided us with many resources that we can access if we\u2019re struggling with mental health problems and she is very understanding when it comes to students different situations. She is a great professor and I loved taking her class and I can\u2019t begin to explain how much I appreciate the steps she\u2019s taken to make her course engaging and friendly for everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDeb does such an amazing job with her live lectures, she is engaging and understands that students have a life outside of class that needs to be taken into consideration. She has always been extremely accommodating and uses unique grading methods to ensure the success of everyone in her class. I learned more from Deb this semester than I have from any of my other professors.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"dr-william-flynn\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dr. William Flynn<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe (William Flynn) made online class super engaging and really helped me understand concepts\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe is my favourite faculty member because he makes his lectures very easy to follow along with and explains things very well, all while making the class enjoyable! His assignments were fun to write as well! He took a lot of the scary stress away from my first year! He is a very nice guy and i enjoyed being in his class this term\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tonya Davidson, Deborah Landry, and William Flynn have received resident nominations for the 2021-2022 Favourite Faculty&nbsp;member program.
