Excerpts from Students evaluations:

• "Victor Balogun has one of the best teaching styles I have come across in University. He wants students to understand the content instead of memorizing it. He gives us clear explanations, and if we ever need help, he is willing to go above and beyond for his students"

• "The most amazing teacher I’ve ever had. He teaches with his full dedication. Made online learning fun and didn’t made attending classes a burden. I really liked the way he changed the course requirements according to online learning. He supported students in these hard times as it should have been. He was not all talk like other teachers, he actually cared about well being of students. I am highly satisfied with his dedication and Thank you for not making it more hard than it already was."

He adapted well to the new online delivery, and came up with good methods to keep students engaged when we are learning from home."
