She's super sweet and really cares about her student. She has a background in social work so she comes across as an empathic and comforting person. She wants you to do well and her class honestly isn't very hard. She would let us leave earlier cause she cared about students' mental health which was a pretty nice touch. She takes feedback from students and implements them in her class. I took her for Can We All Get Along? and her class mostly consisted of watching documentaries and class discussions. She always started off her classes with games. For example, my first class with her was a Kahoot game to let us get to know her. If you're already pretty knowledgeable in the subject then you might not learn anything new. But she will pose thought-provoking questions. I also found that her choice of documentaries was great.

Such an amazing teacher. She's honestly the sweetest and most like down to Earth teacher that understands what we go through. Her class "Can we all get along? " was such a great class to attend. I strongly recommend her, as long as you listen to her and review the notes a bit then her tests should be fine. Quite long since it's a text ish to write but overall amazing class and teacher.

As long as you listen and participate you will do great. The tests tend to be on the longer side and require you to be able to articulate and support your arguments with precise examples from class material, referenced in MLA.

Joliane Allaire is probably one of the sweetest teachers I've met in my first semester; we played games with her and watched videos, and had a 5-10min break (since it's a long class). Super lovely, understanding and easy to talk to. As long as you listened in her class, her exams weren't challenging, but you did have to write a lot to get all the points. On top of that, she wasn't a strict correcter at all. Plus, she allowed us to have some bonus points to have better grades. Overall, I suggest taking her class cause it's an exciting subject with a good teacher.
