Mechanics is not a difficult course to be honest, but to pass it with a high average, you should practice. Solve as many problems as you can and you'll ace this class no matter who your teacher is. Céline Lebel is one of the finest teachers of this course. She is really thoughtful and her notes are strongly useful for the final. The level of difficulty of her tests and quizzes is usually the same as the final, but she also solves more challenging questions in class (which are always given in her powerpoints). I also suggest that you purchase Mastering Physics.
Take the work done in class on the whiteboards seriously, they really help grasp the material and establish how to efficiently work through problems.
Make sure to take notes constantly, especially on the labs and activities; those are always important. You don't need to do the readings, they're not on the test- save yourself the trouble. Exams are relatively easy if you study the labs and notes well enough; use her posted study guides, but if something seems too obscure to be relevant, it's probably fine to skip. Only stuff done in class is on the exam.
I took Lim for Cal 1 and Linear and he was my favorite teacher in all of CEGEP. I would say for most math classes if you do all the assigned problems and assignments you can do well.
