Raphaelle Gauvin-Coulombe

Intro Macro with Coulombe was a great introduction to economics courses in college. The lectures were the same thing every time, we would go through slides and she would explain each slide's content/graphs. This method of teaching is usually very redundant for me but Coulombe was able to make it very effective. She is an amazing macroeconomist and she knew how to cater her explanations of core concepts so that many people could understand from the get-go. Her exams were a great test of our knowledge and were not that hard to do well on as long as you took notes in class. If you really wanted to get a good grasp of the concepts, it's best to do the reading before class. If you did the readings, class would usually clear up any questions that may have came up during the reading.

I'd recommend Professor Coulombe to anyone looking to take macro at midd. Her explanations should leave every student walking out of her class knowing at least the bare minimum about economics. Problem sets weren't too bad and they will definitely help you succeed in the course.

PLEASE take Macroecon with Professor Coulombe. She was absolutely amazing and did a great job of explaining baseline concepts for econ. Highly recommend. The readings were simple and easy to understand, and problem sets were the same way- were not too difficult yet were helpful and did not feel like busy work.
