He doesn't give any notes. Tells funny jokes in class. Goes really fast in lecture, its hard to keep up. A lot of material in not a lot of time. Very poor average.

Dr. Cormier is the best professor I've had thus far! Explains complex material in a way that's understandable and records lecture and notes for you to watch if you miss a lecture. Quiz every week, 2 midterms and an exam each semester.

Comment:
Had to take his class over twice. I found I struggled a lot in this course and although he is very helpful, it did not help my grade. Hard marker when it comes to midterms.. bot sure about exams because I never went to receive my final exam. Either way, taking a course over is not a fun time!

James was awesome!! His lectures were all recorded and put on youtube so you could watch them if you missed a class. He was very fair and clear when explaining what was expected on midterms and exams. He reuses a lot of questions from old tests which are all posted on his website. I personally enjoyed going to his lectures! Great prof

Made my year! I had a few professors this year that almost ruined university for me. The professor really does make the class and for that reason I ended up loving organic chemistry.

GREAT prof. Made the material interesting. Started every lecture as an hilarious comedian for 10 minutes. A little condescending if you go to his office for help but you won't have to if you take good notes in class. Gives previous year midterms/exams which are very helpful and follow the exact same format. Loved this class.

Dr C's a pretty cool guy. Hes a skinny, hyperactive, little man who is an excellent prof. He's also very smart- really knows his stuff and will help ya out if ya need it. Lots of people fail this course, I never know so many stupid people went to StFX, theres no reason to fail this course. Easy course, great prof.

Condescending, He uses a disorganized format which leads to confusion when studying your notes, rambles all the time which will have nothing to do with what you are learning. Really obnoxious DONT TAKE THIS COURSE!

Okay, whoever said that James is not approachable was going to the wrong classes all year. Crazy people. James is the picture of what all profs should be towards their students. Concerned about their education and understanding of the material. James will make sure you understand chem if you want him to. All you need to do is ask.

Awesome Awesome prof! He will go over and above his duty to help you learn the material as long as you put in some effort yourself. Generally cares about his students. Don't think I can say enough good things about this man

The guy is hands down the best Chemistry Prof at STFX. He's interesting and funny, always has something to say. He's much better in smaller class sizes (321 for example), and will assist you to no end. His exams are fair, you've just to get used to the idea of expecting everything you've learnt to be on it and know how to apply it.

Great Prof, has his own style of teaching but once you're used to it you're golden. Extremely helpful outside of class and overall a real nice person.
