Winners of the Teaching Award 2016/2017
| Jean-Jacques Weber, professor in English and Education What do students say? Prof. Weber deserves this award because his passion for teaching comes through in everything he does. His lectures and seminars are engaging and thought provoking, his compassion and understanding make him a great mentor, and he has a unique ability to connect with every student who takes part in his courses. This would be a wonderful way to end professor Weber's teaching career at the University of Luxembourg. Michel Pauly, professor in History What do students say? Prof. Pauly wants his students to get involved in class, encourages them to ask questions and wants to hear different opinions. He provides students with tools such as references, internet pages, books so that they can learn more about the subjects they are interested in.
