The curriculums challenging which is rewarding once you commit and he's there to help every step of the way. Even in an online class format, he will happily zoom with you! I agree that your grade is dependent upon what you put into it. He rewards genuine engagement with analytical thought and persuasive arguments, all skills his class sharpens.MGT4850 2026-04-28 15:32:13 +0000 UTC
The professor made class really enjoyable, and the work was pretty straightforward. If you set aside 2 hours or whatever you need for those big tests, you'll be fine. Also was not really a harsh grader and I think his grades were pretty fair.INTB1209 2025-12-15 04:04:58 +0000 UTC
Duane is a great professor who cares about his students. Classes are very discussion-based. There are a couple long case-study analysis papers and a term group project that is very intensive, but that should be expected for a capstone course.STRT4501 2025-12-10 22:37:56 +0000 UTC
Great class, professor had clear instructions on the assignments and was understanding of students questions/concerns.BUS 2025-04-27 23:27:33 +0000 UTC
Great professor, and definitely helps students who care about the class. Overall experience 10/10, I would definitely take class again with him.MKT2100 2024-12-19 16:34:20 +0000 UTC
Made the class engaging. This was his key strength. Most of learning is done outside of class by reading the textbook as his lectures are very general and mostly consists of reading off of the slides. Willing to curve depending on class averages. Group project contribution form responses are not reflective of the grades we receive.INTB1203 2024-12-17 18:12:05 +0000 UTC
Professor Lefevre was easily one of my best instructors throughout my collegiate career. He consistently provided interesting, and challenging, course material in an organized and timely manner, which he supplemented with helpful articles and links. He also provided us with unique opportunities to apply the knowledge that we had learned in class.MGT4750 2022-01-07 21:16:39 +0000 UTC
The guidance given to complete our team's group project was they best I have ever received.MGT4230 2021-12-16 13:09:02 +0000 UTC
Harsh graders. Never give you good grades even you meet all the requirements. He even gives you C for discussion board posts.MKTG2201 2021-02-23 13:09:35 +0000 UTC
Amongst my favorite Professor's. Great material and Good exposure through Guest Speakers with relevant and extensive experiences. Professor himself has worked in several countries and has insights to share about international business and culture.INTB6208 2020-02-19 03:25:50 +0000 UTC
I had a great time on my dialogue w Professor Lefevre. He was always in a good mood and ready for the day. The trip was a mix of business visits and cultural visits, the majority of which I found super interesting. He took us to amazing restaurants all the time and was overall a very easygoing guy. Grades by a few small assignments and 1 bigger oneINTB4944 2019-08-29 15:37:23 +0000 UTC
The worst professor to go on a dialogue with. The grading criteria is unclear, takes forever to grade and doesn't grade properly! He will not reply to your emails and won't help you at all. He tells you something and does something completely different. Moreover, favoritism is evident. Don't go on a dialogue with him if possible.INTL4944 2019-06-28 11:03:12 +0000 UTC
Gave quizzes out of the blue, but is a great teacher!MGTB53 2018-07-09 14:02:18 +0000 UTC
I took two classes(MKTG2201 and STRT4501) with Prof. Lefevre and I'd rate him as one of the best professors in NEU. Lectures are interactive and didn't take too much of my time. I see reviews criticizing the level of difficulty however, I feel like students take these core classes assuming they will be easy however that is not the case for everyoneMTKG2201 2017-07-08 11:19:57 +0000 UTC
Great professor for an online course. Incredibly clear instructions, easy to follow. Professor gives good feedback and is readily available. Would recommend.MKTG2202 2017-04-29 03:57:27 +0000 UTC
