Comment:
He has a wonderful and cheerful personality. Makes lots of jokes. As a teacher he's VERY easy to pass with an A but he CANNOT teach! So if you want an easy A, take him. If you want to actually learn French, do not take him. BUT IT'S AN EASY A!

Comment:
Not a good teacher at all. If you have never had French before good luck. I just finished the class and couldn't tell you much of anything. I took it with a friend who had had 4 years of French and she helped me the whole way throught. Otherwise I would have failed royally. He is nice but is a horrible teacher, but he gives lots of extra credit.

Comment:
He is a nice guy, but a terrible teacher. You can miss class for a whole week and miss nothing. But you'll get a good grade in the end. I don't even know what we are doing and how to study for class. He doesnt follow the book so never mind buying it. He is way easier than Florido, so pick him if you need to pass.

I have taken two semesters of Dr. Peckham, and don't feel like I've made much progress in his class. Peckham's tests are exactly what he tells you they will be, but even that is confusing. If you're looking for something relatively easy with lots of busy work, this is the class. If you want to learn the language, take Dr. Florido.

The nicest man you'll ever meet, extremely helpful, wants you to succeed, but if he CAN teach, I wouldn't know; he doesn't. Memorize for tests and practice your listening skills during class; you can't get a word in edgewise.

Good teacher. Talks about the most random things in class and you have no clue what he is talking about. He pretty much gives you the answers to the test in class.

He's too easy. You won't learn anything because he sets you up to be lazy. The tests are exactly the homework, all you do is memorize. He never ever makes you speak French in class either.

WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT TAKE HIM. He is very unclear and the only difficult part about his class is trying to understand him. I skipped class 10-12 times and made a high B.

real scatter-brained and unclear in his lecturing. tests and quizzes are real easy if you study. the worksheets he gives are his tests and quizzes. if you want to actually learn TAKE SOMEONE ELSE.

Dr. Peckham, is RUDE, SILLY,&CHILDISH teacher that we have here at UTM and I don't mean that in a good way. He doesn't answer questions and when you ask them he get's a snappy attitude and FAITHFULLY directs you to his world renound website. Go elsewhere

DO NOT TAKE HIM! Paying attention in his class is an absolute waste of time because he doesn't talk about the subject. If forced, then memorize the verbs, and some vocab, you'll do ok.

I don't understand how he still has a job here, he is absolutely horrible. Is it just the students that realize this. Taking anything from him is a waste of time because I'm 100 percent positive that you will not learn

This is the worse French class that I have taken before in my life. He is extremely intelligent but no one else can understand him. His class is always confusing and unclear. The jokes...!!!!!! He should get fired for lack teaching skills!!!!
