Lectures are always very interesting and engaging. It is evident he is very educated on his material. His seminars are also quite enjoyable. He is, however, a very harsh grader so it is important to idk do your best, show up to all lectures, pick a religion and pray. I genuinely don't think King Charles himself would get above an 80.
As amazing as the lectures are that I looked forward to them every week, the grading is so harsh I'm discouraged from taking a course with him again. Lectures are also very important bc he adds so much more than what the slides say. Also lots of readings for the seminars. Fun lectures at the cost of your grade
Engaging professor with an entertaining lecture style. Challenging but rewarding - stay on top of readings and participate actively. unstuckstudy was a lifesaver for study prep. Tough grader but worth the effort.
I loved Professor Greigs lectures - I however did not love his marking style. I am throughly convinced this man is impossible to please. Despite speaking with him on multiple occasions and making active attempts to understand his expectations I came up hopeless. Hopefully you will have better luck then I.
Martin Greig is a great prof who clearly is very educated on the material. His lectures are always interesting and engaging. He is a tough grader though so it is important to attend all classes and tutorials. Overall I enjoyed his teaching style and the contents of the course.
Professor Greig was easily one of my favourite profs during my undergrad in History. His lectures were always a favourite part of my week. Tells history like a story time. The key to success in his courses is to write out a well researched, well written and analytical research essay. Very generous with extensions if you need extra time as well.
I recommend not to take this prof. Very bad in terms of every aspect. He marks very harshly and does not give good feedback. The midterm and final exam are completely different than what he covers in class but according to him it is.
His lectures were pretty interesting, but they tended to drag at times. No review or anything for the midterm or exam (both are worth a lot).
Absolutely adored Prof. Greig, he is engaging and entertaining to listen to. I found myself thoroughly enjoying all his classes, and his way of delivering the material is effective. The seminar material was a little challenging, but the questions helped break it down. Quite a tough grader, and the research paper was hefty. You MUST pay attention.
Long but interesting lectures, made material decently interesting. Research paper is really important, dont skip on that. Took forever to grade papers. Overall decent class, lots of information so it can be difficult but thats expected with a history class.
