John G. Althouse Middle School Reviews
130 LLOYD MANOR RD, Etobicoke, Ontario M9B 5K1, Canada
Pellettier's class is one that moves very fast and quick. If you have an issue he expects you to take the liberty of addressing it with him yourself. The language he uses in his class on assessments may be challenging to understand at first but it will become normal over time. He teaches at a level that is above the norm as he knows his students will be able to perform at it. Simply, if you are able to produce good quality work that is all you will need in order to succeed.
RMT reviews: Samec: Samec's class is the most difficult in this school. His standards and work are quite challenging but highly rewarding. The level that he expects is a step above many other teachers as low marks are common in this class. To succeed, notes are absolutely crucial. Memorization is not only required, but it is important to really understand the material. All questions will require some sort of extra thinking. He has said that questions should be answered as if it was worth an extra point, and this advice is very important to keep in mind while taking tests. Thorough knowledge of the material is important in many aspects of the class, such as in discussions, presentations, tests/papers, etc. If you have an issue, it is best to get it resolved as quick as possible as the class moves fast and as the unit progresses the material goes deeper and deeper so full understanding is necessary. Overall, the class is highly rewarding and his teaching, while challenging and difficultlt, provides you with an amazingly effective learning experience.
Ms. Sindle is probably the best substitute of all time. Been out of JGA for 2 years now (yikes) and I still think of her as the best sub. She's chill, a great teacher, gives good amounts of homework, and makes the classroom environment extremely enjoyable.
