Show your work, or you will most likely lose marks. Also, you should check your own homework because I noticed that he only checks if you've done the questions and not if you actually got them right.

You should be fine as long as you study. He's a fun teacher to have. Really, the only complaint I have is that I'm not sure if it's just the students, or if he's just bad at controlling them. We had a substitute teacher come in for the first few weeks, and everyone's behaviour was okay. But when Mr. Lavoie took over, everyone started to be extra loud. So loud, in fact, that I would get bad headaches. It may be because he lets us use our phones after we finish work, and is pretty fun and relaxed. As long as you can handle that (unlike me haha), everything should be okay.
