I had him for history in grade ten, but I’ve heard his teaching is different for each class. He’s pretty easy going, I personally really enjoyed the way we took notes and it really helped me succeed in that class, so make sure you always have paper and pencil (or pen), prepared when you get to class. Awesome teacher. Probably would’ve done poorly in history if he didn’t help make it more interesting! Note taking is important in this class! I can’t remember if every little thing he said was on the tests we had, but I do remember a couple times where I didnt write something he said and there was a question about it on the test, so as long as you pay attention to majority and actually do the work, you’ll do fine! (Plus, he’s a really great teacher so even if you’re struggling, as long as he sees that you’re trying everything will work out! )
