HSE Best Teachers Election Starts
From May 29 to June 18 students can vote for HSE’s best teachers of the academic year. This year there is no need to come to the university to vote. Students can submit their scores online via LMS.
You can choose your candidate from the faculty list — no more than two lecturers and two teachers conducting workshops or practical training — in LMS module ‘Rate Your Courses’ right after the required assessment of your teachers and courses for Module 4. If your candidate is not on the list, you can indicate him or her in the ‘Other teacher (specify full name)’ category. In addition to recognition, the best teachers will also receive a bonus.
If you study at HSE-NES, please find the link for voting in your email. ICEF students have already voted.
You can also write a letter to your 'chosen' teacher. Such letters are always quite appreciated by the teachers. You can even write a poem or draw a picture. Letterheads, envelopes and the mailboxes are all waiting for you in the halls of each HSE building. In your letter you can tell your teacher what makes him or her the best.
For further information about the voting procedure and lists of winners see the website.
