Comment:
Finn is a great professor for those wanting to learn the French language and have an interest in the language and the culture. He is tough and goes through the lessons very quickly. Expect to go through a chapter every week. You have to put a lot of effort into it as well and don't expect him to cancel. He has never cancelled.

Comment:
Dr. Finn is a very nice man and can be goofy at times, but for an elementary French class, he was way too tough. He seemed to move too quickly through material without explaining things in depth and I felt that I did not get enough practice in class. It was very difficult for me. He does give extra credit if you participate in French club though.

Comment:
He's really nice and really helpful. As long as you try in class and participate, and show up ON TIME he will really like you. He isn't that hard, but compared to the other spanish teachers he's the hardest out of all of them. Expects you to know what you need to know.

He's a good guy. He tries to prepare you for the real world as if you're going to speak it the rest of your life. HOWEVER, he has the hardest tests outta any teacher i've had to this point at ONU. I recomend getting another prof if you can.

I've had Finn for French almost the entire Time I was here except for one quarter. He does play favourites, and can be quite goofy. I'd take Dufault instead.

Comment:
Decent. Tends to play favorites. Having not had 4 years of Spanish prior to this class, I am not sure I would have comprehended much of the material. Very fast paced, expect to cover a chapter about every 5-7 days or so. Finals are easier than any of his other tests. He was an O.K. teacher, but definitely not my favorite.

A great prof! He makes class interesting. It is very organized and you always know the class agenda ahead of time. Class is all about doing excercises, rarely lectures on grammar. A's and b's aren't hard to get if you put in a little effort.

Really likes what he teaches and grades consistently, but he does play favorites, so watch out. Not a bad teacher, you'll know more at the end than you ever thought you could learn in 10 weeks.
