Reviews of professor Nicholas Lalanne

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I took his online course, and I felt that the course load was incredibly manageable on top of my other classes. Every week was the same, so you could easily get in a routine of doing the work and getting it done. It's a lot of quizzes and worksheets graded through the platform, with 1 or 2 assignments graded by him weekly. Having a routine helps!

Took as my D2. Such a cool & interesting class. Prof rly cares abt the topics so lectures were cool. He's also hilarious! Graded on online discussion posts (YellowDig), small group discussion in class, online quizzes, group essay final. Pay attention in class --> don't need txtbook. YellowDig stuff was kinda fun & easy to manage.

He is literally my favorite professor I've had at UVM. He is amazing at teaching and really forces you outside of your comfort zone so you can really understand the material. You can miss one or two classes but you will be behind.

I took his course during the summer. I understand summer classes are intense but Professor Lalanne had two to four assignments due every day... even on the weekends. It was not an acceptable course load for any given college student working a 9 to 5 job -- having that many assignments due daily for four weeks straight.

if you want to actually learn asl and the culture surrounding it, look no further. Nick is the most amazing professor I've ever had, he cares for students and their ability to do well. He takes his time in teaching the material and lets students take their time in learning it. Nick is a true god. I wish i could take asl courses with him forever.

TrueWayASL was a clear and straightforward platform. Lots of vocab to learn, but manageable. Prof Lalanne taught about deaf culture, too, which was engaging. He was helpful, provided feedback when asked, and was caring. Work was graded in a timely fashion. Tests and quizzes were fairly easy. Lots of different ways to practice signing. I recommend!

Nick is the best! I didn't want to take this course, but I ended up loving it. So much fun, I never wanted to miss a class. Nick made me comfortable making mistakes and he is so funny! Hope to take more ASL with him in the future. Definitely take this class!

Nick is an awesome professor who genuinely cares about educating his students. He creates a great learning environment and is supportive of people of all skill levels. Cant say enough about how great he is. The only downside of the class is that it is entirely based on an online teaching program and not the professors own design. Program is $$$ too
