Great professor. Makes the class fun and easy. 4 oral presentations, chapter quizzes here and there. No in class tests. Very sweet lady. Online homework due every Monday and Wednesday which can pile up. Drops lowest grade from each category. Wish I could take her for French 2.

Literally the sweetest human being. She wants everyone to do well. She keeps the class super light and fun. I ended up with a 100% in her class however I did put in a tiny bit of effort. She drops a ton of grades a quiz, a discussion, 6 homeworks, etc. Easy peasy for sure.

She is really not caring whatsoever. Her class is a lot of work, I would spend a lot of hours just to get the work done. I would not recommend her at all for ANY OF HER CLASSES!

Professor Pomerleau is a very positive and caring professor. She makes you feel comfortable asking for help and is a very fair grader. There is a good amount of homework and multiple presentations but they are all very easy if you put the work in. Loved her!

An actual angel. Almost every week there is a quiz but she makes them so easy to pass, you can study 30 minutes before the class and get a 100% or above. There are 4 orals and they are really not bad, she will help you out if you forget your lines. Homework every Tuesday and Thursday. You need the book. If you need a language, this is the best.

Comment:

The curriculum is the same across the entire Spanish department so no matter which professor you choose it will be challenging, but I recommend Pomerleau. She is very helpful/nice. There are a lot of assignments to keep up with, textbook/access code is ridiculously expensive and software is terrible (they're changing it in Fall 2018 though).

DO NOT TAKE HER ONLINE CLASSES. She makes you record everything and completely defeats the purpose of online. She's also not very reliable and doesn't even remotely budge when it comes to helping students out.

Great professor. Lenient but has clear expectations. You can tell she really cares for her students. The class itself uses a lot of group work and oral participation. My french improved a lot and I would take this professor again

Sra. Profesora is very nice. She's very easy to talk to when students have concerns or questions. Attend class, participate and do the homework. She always give OMQ(one minute quizzes) on the vocabulary Also, there's 3 writing activities and live chats we must do. Overall, she's a really good Spanish professor. I took her for both SPN 1120 & 1121.

She is an excellent professor who is always ready to help you understand. There is a lot of homework but that is not in her control. I would take her for all of my language classes if I could!

Ms. Pomerleau is very passionate about teaching and truly makes learning Spanish fun. I always looked forward to participating in her class. There was a lot of online homework but she had little control over that. There are a lot of grades and opportunities to bolster your grade. 5 question quizzes once or twice a week. Excellent professor.

Comment:

Prof. Pomerleau is a Quebec native, passionate about language education. She immersed me in Francophone culture really well within limits of the classroom, and gave me a facile introduction to French. Her tests and 1-minute quizzes were designed and graded fairly. Despite the class's lack of difficulty, it still taught me the language very well.

I absolutely loved this class! There is a lot of work, but it's manageable and it's all very helpful. There are several oral assignments and a lot of class participation but I didn't mind because it allowed me to practice speaking. And she's not too harsh of a grader! I wish I could take her for all French classes because she's great!

She is the absolute best. There IS homework every week but it's easy. For the listening comprehension, if you're struggling, check what page the online homework has listed and you can read the script. Tough part: listening comprehension on tests. Study vocab prior to each class because, like, every other class there's a One Minute Quiz.

She's the best, I'm honestly very upset I can't take her for French 2. There's a 4 oral exams which we all hated but she's very light with grading them. Make sure you go to every class because attendance is necessary and graded. I would definitely recommend her though. Very little homework and she's a really great professor.

Great professor. Homework due every Wednesday, test for all of the chapters, and mini assignments and group projects helps your grade a lot. Doesn't expect students to have great fluency, take her if you can!

Pomerleau is an great professor and an incredibly sweet lady. She explains the content thoroughly and is sure to be understanding to each students situation. She makes the course feel actually pretty easy but also teaches the material, so you will defintely become better at French in her class without drowning in work. 10/10 would recommend!

If you really want to learn french, take her courses. She's very informative and knows what needs to be done in order to teach students. Yes, there is a lot of work, but it's doable, just make sure you're organized and on top of everything. I wish I took French 2 with her, but her classes are all in the morning.
