Comment:
If you want your hand held, your biases unquestioned, and your notions of relationships to be completely unchallenged, do not take classes with this man. Instead, if you want to learn, to be challenged, and to take responsibility for your own direction and sense of self, take classes with him. The man is a genius at what he does, and is unafraid.

Comment:
I don't know where to begin w/ this prof. Textbook & lectures were some of the most vague, disorganized things I've ever encountered at university. Textbook has wildly inaccurate info-eg: repeatedly mentions that Camus killed himself. Also tends to get far too agressively involved in student's personal issues. Offputting and little - no useful info

Amazing professor. If you can't think outside the box, I imagine he might be frustrating and/or daunting. If you want to stretch yourself beyond your comfort zone and really examine yourself, this is the prof for you.

Comment:
Gained some useful tidbits to take to practice.Disorganized flow left me wishing for more clarity.Private group work was strange.Felt I would have learned more from a teacher with stronger facilitation skills to keep the group on track and make better use of time. Prof failed to respect privacy of group discussions (more than once).

Comment:
Some group work was interesting.I felt the class lacked direction at times.Did not feel he exemplified what he taught. Example:after explaining he would respect the privacy of the discussions during small group work, he cited private conversations held in group during lecture. Twice. Was hoping for a stronger mentor in someone teaching this class.

an amazing enthusiastic professor who engages the class; through his genuine respect for all he creates a safe environment for growth and learning; flexible enough to allow issues that surface not to disrupt the flow of learning; adapting his lesson plan to suit the needs of his students growth. On learning: you will surpass your expectations.

Honore has the 'soft skills' that many professors, and leaders lack. His knowledge comes forth in his life experience, and true passion for the material! If you want to be tested on memory like you were in Grade 5, this is not the class for you.If you want an amazing class experience, he is the prof for you!

Took the course because it was required. Was prepared to hate it and ended up LOVING it. I learned a lot about myself. He was there for you whenever you needed him. Did not play favourites. Treated everyone with genuine respect and kindness. Great prof!

Comment:
Dr. France is the kind of prof the university should hire more often. He is kind, generous, engaging, and very respectful of others. Although he makes you work hard, you learn so much from listening to his stories and teaching experiences. His feedback for all the assignments is prompt and detailed.

A good person, but a little odd. Easy to do well, but hard to feel like you're really learning everything he's teaching.

Teaching style is eclectic. IS RESPECTFUL of boundaries (students have a choice to participate in exercises). Has genuine concern for the sucess of ALL his students. Is accomodating & helpful. Commenting on what he wears is juvenile. (female reviewer).
