Comment:
His lectures are boring and fast-paced, but he honestly prepares you so well for tests. I had better notes and understanding of the class content than my friends who had other lecturers. He's kinda intimidating tho bc he doesn't like it when you eat or take pictures and says things like 'you should know the answer to this tophat question" lol

Very caring, have organized and clear lectures, making calculus so much easier to understand which is the holy reason I could pass 135 (didn't have him for 136 and suffered big time).

He teaches really well. He goes over material that will be tested so make sure to attend lecture. He does not like students taking pictures of the board.

I failed my midterm, but when I went to him, he helped me study by answering any questions I had. BUT all the other exams were amazing! He is the best professor! I was ready to give up this course but his guidance helped me. But again, YOU have to do all the work and he will help for sure! I am taking his lecture for MAT136! HE'S THE BEST!!!!!!

Decent prof. Notes are a bit scattered. Doesn't let you take pictures or eat in class so don't take it during your lunch hour. A bit fast-paced so keep up with homework

Comment:
Prof. LeBlanc was a decent lecturer, little harsh (or honest) at times, however, he spoke well and knows the course. I don't think he knows how to address/talk to 'younger' students. He tried his best to implement the TopHat system but lectures were a little awkward and its participation marked your class attendance.

Comment:
Prof. LeBlanc's lectures can get dry and boring sometimes, but he gives very good and clear notes. I had him for MAT135 and I would've taken his MAT136 class if my schedule allowed. One of the best options for 1st year mathematics in my opinion. P.S. If you plan to use your phone to take pictures of the board, well good luck to you!

Comment:
Prof LeBlanc can be a savage which is funny sometimes, and his lectures were very clear (esp how he writes on the board). He won't like it if you try to or even look like you are taking a photo but you can just sit closer to the board and other than that, great prof!

Very good lecturer. He usually teaches the simplest calculus course UofT offers but sometimes he includes concepts that aren't important to that class, like, for example, the geometric intuition behind radius of convergence or fundamental theorem of algebra for fraction decomposition. But he is good overall.

personally found it really hard to understand what he was saying sometimes/focusing in general. gets really triggered if you take a pic of the blackboard, guess he put a copyright on everything he writes on the board or something. i stopped going to lectures because i couldn't deal with doing the webworks BEFORE we learned the content.

Great prof, explains the concepts very clearly. A prof that explains clearly and doesn't go off topic is genuinely hard to find in most of the first year courses. His class is worth being in.

I personally do not find that I learn math from being lectured on it so didn't find the lectures helpful but if that is your learning style then I would recommend LeBlanc. He gives VERY good notes. Very clear and you basically can just copy down everything on the board and there's not much else. He was easy to understand. Better than many others

Comment:
His lectures are relatively dry. Lots of writing. Does go through practice questions, although those questions are straightforward. The upside of this Professor is that he takes up the previous year's midterm and exam before the actual assessment. If you can't keep up, he has office hours where your questions will be answered step-by-step

Trash lecturer! I didn't go 1/2 the time. Get ready to love the textbook because thats all you need to pass. You have to teach yourself because apparently no one can teach math properly! overall, read the textbook, do your homework and eat your vegetables!

Comment:
Honestly, the course isn't that bad when you have the right prof to guide you through it. His lectures were a little dry and you could possibly fall asleep during that class, but his notes help. ALOT. Read up before you go to class, and he makes more sense. Exam questions usually set by coordinator, look up past exam and you'll have an idea.
