Brind'amour is really bubbly and nice but hard to understand. She's terrible about getting grades back and boring. She doesn't really teach, so you have to teach yourself. Try to take someone else.

Review #4 / Course: FREN 2102 / Instructor: BRIND'AMOUR L
Half the time in class you don't know what she's talking about and you NEVER know your grade in the class! She's easy going with late assignments, but she's NOT a good teacher. Take someone else if you can!!

Review #7 / Course: FREN 2155 / Instructor: BRIND'AMOUR L
Brind'amour is a good teacher, and the shorter readings were okay, but the novels were boring and seemed irrelevant. 2 oral presentations, 2-3 papers.

Review #8 / Course: FREN 2155 / Instructor: BRIND'AMOUR L
She's very laid back, and absolute funny if you understand her sense of humor. Very willing to help you out. Definitely take Brind'Amour (not Brenda Moore) for French.

Review #9 / Course: FREN 2102 / Instructor: BRIND'AMOUR L
Well, French sucks, but if you have to take this class take B'A. She's super laid back and flexable. She *wants* you to do well and will work with you a lot. Out of my 4 semesters of French, I enjoyed it the most with her.

Review #11 / Course: FREN 2155 / Instructor: BRIND'AMOUR L
Brind'Amour is a good teacher, and she communicates her objectives clearly. The course itself is basically a repeat of 2102: very boring.

Her grading is totally subjective. Be prepared to work really really hard ) and get a B if you don't kiss butt.

Review #17 / Course: FREN 3058 / Instructor: BRIND'AMOUR L
All we had was 4 oral presentations in the class. She never gave us a grade on any of them, supposedly she gives everybody an A. She is never in her office for office hours and when you email her about your grade she doesn't respond.

Review #21 / Course: FREN 3071 / Instructor: BRIND'AMOUR L
Dr. Brind d'Amour specializes in the literature of this time period and is therefore very qualified and more than capable of teaching the material. I really enjoyed the class.

An interesting class, but be prepared to devote some time to the readings. It's interesting, but time-consuming.
