Comment:
Its too bad there's no language department anymore, but Lucien was fun while he was here. The class was really easy, I came in at level 3, but still felt like I learned very little new that semester. It was often difficult to stay awake through all the videos, and the quizzes were direct memorization, since he gave the answers the previous class.

I took his classes in Fall 00 & Spring 01. I still remember a very understanding, friendly and kind professor. He was very interested in his students. I wish I can keep in touch with him.

I really like Prof. Gerber. He really cares about his students and is always very willing to help, is more like your grand-father teaching you French. He is very knowledgeable and energetic. The only downside to his class is that he teaches through videos which sometimes can be a bit boring.

Comment:
Class is extremely slow-paced. Quizzes are based on memorizing minute details instead of understanding fundamentals of grammar. Does not respond to e-mails, but is very willing to let work be handed in late. Shows up late for class sometimes, which in and of itself isn't a huge offense, but acts disgusted if anyone else is late.

Best Professor I've had at RPI. Too bad RPI doesn't offer majors in french. If you work, you will learn so much from him. His classes, however, are not for people who have never taken french before.

Great professor if you make an effort to speak correctly and learn instead of being a loser who's afraid to pronounce words in front of their classmates. I would have gotten an A if I turned in my final paper. Whoops! :)

He's good-humored and funny. Youi probably won't get below a B if you do all the work. Consider reading over the lesson before quizzes because their mostly memorization.

Professor Gerber is the cutest little French guy. If you want to know about the language and the culture, this class is perfect. He is very helpful and very fair when it comes to grading.
