Brilliant! Makes the class very enjoyable and helps you to understand how the tools you learn about can be applied in the real world. Doesn't waste your time and will always be there to help. Consistently wins student voted teaching awards.

Without a doubt the most dedicated and approachable prof at DeGroote. Always willing to help and defends the interests of his students. Midterms are tricky but he provides great direction as to what to study. Doesn't waste your time.

Prof Vilks is incredible. He keeps lectures interesting, and is genuinely funny. He very explicitly drops hints about exams and assignments, so pay attention and you'll do fine. Thanks Vilksy!

Great Professor and a genuine person. If you ever needed some of his time weather it was after class or during office hours he was always very accommodating. He is one of the best teachers I have ever had, his stories and professional experiences really made the course interesting. I highly recommend him.

Comment:

He is by far the nicest and most helpful prof I've ever had at Mac. His lectures are both practical and theoretical. When you leave the class, you feel that you got something extra that will help you in the real world. He respects his students, values their insights and will go out his way to help them. I highly recommend him as a prof!

Comment:

Possibly one of (if not) the BEST teachers at Mac. Vilks knows exactly what he is talking about and relates it to you in a way you can really understand. Very easy going and is willing to put in the extra effort to know you by name and make sure you get the grade you want. He should get a few awards for his teaching ability.

Vilks is a legend. His 4PA3 classes are packed because everybody wants a ticket to see this guy. Unfortunately you SUFFER in particapation becuz of this. But the guy is hilarious and a sage with all his experience stories. A **** Vilks adds to his legend as perhaps the most enjoyable prof in all of MDG.
