Extremely easy A and it is worth 4 credits. I am grateful and am not complaining. You will have to teach yourself french through a french book from the close barnes and nobel but your guaranteed an A lol

If you want to learn real French, search elsewhere. It is more trouble to listening to his nonsense than anything.

Comment:

take this class if you want an A, but be warned that he is totally incomprehensible and that gets extremely frustrating. i find myself yelling at him on a daily basis, and he has no clue what people are saying. there' some sort of communication block. he rants about random stuff and refuses to understand english. be warned

If you want to learn the language, take Needham. If you want to learn on your memorizing skills and would like to see how far your temper can last, take Pierre.

Comment:

Easy A if you go by with his rules. However, you don't really learn French in his class just from taking notes and memorizing(contradictory to the teacher's goal---have students learn French)Pierre can be very stubborn with his grading system and he wants things to be done his way. But, you have to understand that he is old and is retiring soon.

Comment:

Pierre can be tough, but you just need to suck it up and endure it. Ppl complain but they're just immature. He likes things a certain way, and he'll fail you for not doing it. If you DO it his way, and make an effort, it'll be an EASY A! I got an A all 3 years.

Comment:

If you want to learn french take this class from someone else. I wouldnt say he teaches very well- if you really study the sentences then you'll learn a bit. He likes people to do everything the way he wants it & i mean everything! one time he dotted all of the i's on my paper. kinda grade school. but he can be really funny and likes a good laugh!

Pierre is amazing. If you are good with french, this class is a joke. If you aren't good with french, you're gonna need some help. He's very amusing.

Comment:

im just going to be flat out honest with you. some people just dont like him. he can be hard to understand at times and if you arent good at connecting the dots then you might as well join the group that doesnt like him. If you do take him, just go with the flow and follow his lead! dont get a big attitude! but really - be logical ok?

This man has some nerve! if you break his pathetic strict rules dont expect a good grade. the second day of class and he hella yelled at some girl! he only teaches you how to say particular sentences - not how to make your own and no help with broadening your vocab. you will not learn french! he likes things his way with EVERTHING too - none other!

This class is so easy but if you really want to learn a language take spanish. HE makes you memeorize lessons as if these are the only kind of conversations you would ever have in a French speaking country. I learned more French in high school!
