Comment:
Expectations are to make this huge jump from your level-be it out of 200's or already in upper level, and be able to perform at a higher level at all times. There isn't a lecture. You do the homework in class, and ask questions-if you can figure out the methods of translation? He can be condescending of your work, and it makes it hard to learn

Comment:
Horrible. He expected us to know everything about french, even though it was a beginner course. He was rude when we got a question wrong, and would constantly call students out. He had an odd teaching style, it wasn't lecture, but it wasn't hands on either. Take Cusinier instead.

I think Professor Love is a perfect teacher if you really care about learning French. If you are just there for the credit, forget this class. Professor Love makes this class interesting and makes learning a language fun. He gives out many quizzes so try to be at every class. If you have good attendance this will make this class much easier for you

I learned more from Dr. Love than any other French professor. If you show interest, he is more than willing to help, explain, and assist. He is generally calm and loves to teach.

Comment:
I love the French language, and I took this class thinking that I would get better at French grammar. However, it was basically us sitting while we did review exercises in class. He explains the phrases in very hard to understand ways, and has everything online. His office hours are 8 AM, which makes it very difficult to meet with him.

Dr. Love is a very pretentious man who believes he is French. I liked him in business French, but this is awful. He likes to make you feel stupid. It's making me hate my French major. Take Dr. Egloff every chance that you get.

Mr. Love is a very sweet man. He is passionate about French and it shows in his teaching. He curves grades and any daily activity or lesson is easily accessible on the online syllabus. Because of his class I have even considered a minor on French. I HIGHLY recommend taking him.

Nathan Love is a very intelligent person who loves french, however, he is very fast passed and if you can't keep up then oh well. I wanted french to be my minor or maybe even major until he showed up. Don't expect him to slow down for you, or spend too much time working with you if you're struggling. If you are solid in french, however, go for it.

Very helpful, very knowledgable. If you're intelligent and diligent, you'll be fine in these classes. I only had one year of French in high school, and got a high A after skipping into 201/202 biterm.

Dr. Love was very helpful. We had a project to do online, I had trouble with it, and he basically walked me through the process. I don't know how much more helpful it can get than that. I looked forward to going to French everyday, it was a fun class. Some people who have rated Dr.Love poorly on here are total morons.

By far worst teacher I have ever had. He does not help at all, he does not teach, he plays on the computer. If you know his website you can take his entire class. Too much to memorize and no help to do it. He is a jerk who is all about himself. He thinks he is French, therefor he needs to be an **** all the time. AVOID HIM

I came into this class having spent 4 years in France, leanring French, so I was practically fluent in it. Because of Dr. Love, I gave up my French major and have vowed to never study it at Western ever again. I have never met a prof so arrogant and full of himself in my life. He seems to take pleasure in making his students feel stupid.

Dr. Love is a pretty nice guy. Very helpful, but be prepared for him to speak in French the majority of the time. The material itself isn't difficult, it's primarily the speed at which he goes that can be hard to keep up with. I would recommend Dr. Love, he is always willing to help his students, I really enjoyed his class.

Comment:
I first had 102 and did so well he talked me into skipping a level and going on to 202. It was SO much harder than 102, if you do well in 101 or 102 DO NOT skip a level. My grade never went below a 96 in 102 and im struggling for a B in here. He's helpful but not very sympathetic. He curves the quizzes. Study daily to do well and the tests are hard

Never take this guy. His tests are so hard, and he puts things on the exams that you never even cover in class or in the book. He counted things wrong on my final exam that were actually right, and when i confronted him about it he was like, oh well. He also hates athletes....he tried to fail several in my class. Take someone else if you can.

Comment:
He only loves teaching because it's his chance every day to be the center of attention. PLays GOD in some ways, because he can choose to pass or fail you on subjective nonsense that makes no difference otherwise. Outside class, he is childish and rude. Just bad all-around. Take Egloff if you get the chance. You'll end up taking her anyway!

He's a bit touchy at times, and a bit dry. He expects a lot out of his students, and most of the time we didn't meet those expectations.
