Great teacher. Goes through chapter and lets the class know what the test will focus on. Has several real life stories from his days as a teacher/principal.Take him if given the change.
Mr.Dore is really helpful if u need anything. He does use the book and he is strict about class attendance ..he tells you what will be on test and gives a study guide..all his test are senerio based and some definitions..he is a great teacher...he tells many stories ..the class is pretty boaring all u do is highlight what will be on test...
Really nice guy. He should be a professor or a higher up in the department, he wants to see you do well. His test are kind of difficult, but you have a study guide. A lot of extra points. I highly recommend taking him.
Take him if you can! He is a great teacher and person. He is very helpful and gives many opportunities for you to succeed. If you go to class, pay attention and look over the study guide you will do great.
Really good teacher. Hes very nice and very helpful. The material can get boring at times, but he tells you exactly what will be on the tests. Study for the test and do the observation hours and you'll pass with an A. He gives many opportunities for bonus points as well.
He is the best professor I can think of. All his test are practically given to you from the book. He is really helpful. I would recommend this teacher every time.
Mr. Dore' was such a help in this class. He clearly explained exactly what you need to know for each test.Go to class and you will be rewarded!!
Mr. Dore is SO nice and easy. He gives study guides for his tests and helps you as much as he can. He will help you if you help yourself. TAKE HIM!
Take Him if you can! One of the best teachers I've had! Gives opportunity for bonus points and on large tests grades on a curve! However, is tests are multiple choice and the possible answers are close to one another so you need to know the material to make a decent grade. He's nice but the idea is for you to learn what he teaches.
Mr. Dore is awesome! I recommend him to anyone taking EDFL 106. His study guides are exactly what's going to be on the test and he gives you the page numbers to find the answers. He's funny and has lots of great stories. Take him if you can!!
Mr.Dore is awesome. Take him. Genuinely cares about his students and wants to see them succeed. Tells you exactly what will be on the tests, gives a lot of grades, gives bonus point opportunities, and grades tests on a curve. Textbook is mandatory, but he teaches the info very well. If you fail his class, then college isn't for you.
My favorite professor so far at UL. He cares about his students and loves to teach. He has so many great stories and I don't mind when he goes on a tangent, ever. Grades are fairly easy as long as you do what is asked. Studyguides for every test with exactly what you need to know, but it still benefits to go to class and listen to his lectures.
GREAT TEACHER! He was my favorite professor all semester! He really cares about his students and does everything he can to see them succeed. He tells amazing stories, some funny and some sad. BUY THE BOOK! It is used almost every class. Test are pretty much the study guide. TAKE HIM
LOVED HIM! Such a good teacher. I learned so much, he tells awesome stories, and genuinely cares for his students. Gives bonus points and grades on a curve. Always there to help and wants to see you succeed. TAKE HIM!
Mr. Dore is literally the best professor at UL. If you have a bad advisor, he will help you in any way that he can to make sure that you are successful. He tells stories that are intersting and gets to know you. you aren't just a number in his class you are actually someone who he cares about you not just wanting to get paid. i LOVED him. take him!
Mr. Dore is amazing. One of my favorite professors at UL! Cares for his students and just wants to see you succeed. Will help you out if you need. Lots of grades, bonus points, and grades tests o a curve. Tests are straight from a study guide. And he is so interesting; tells great stories! Loved loved loved him. TAKE HIM! You won't regret it!
AMAZING. after taking Roslin Growe's EDFL 106 and failing because of HER discrepancy with my online passport experiences,Mr. Dore not only showed me how to fix them but TAUGHT me information rather than just rambling on about nothing.
GREAT professor. Tests are straight from his study guides(literally). His stories are interesting. Lots of chances for a grade booster (extra credit, etc.). Willing to help with whatever you need! Take him!
Mr. Dore is a great teacher. His class is very entertaining with lots of funny stories and still covers the learning material. You will learn a lot in this class. He explains how to use passport very well. His test are very easy as long as you study from his study guides. He gets to know all of his students.
Mr. Dore' is a fantastic teacher. He works very hard throughout the class to make sure that every one of his students is prepared to continue in the college of education, and eventually to teach for real. He lays down a strong foundation to build your schooling on top of with great insights into how the education system works. Absolutely take him.
Even though I have only taken him for half of a semester so far, he is by far one of my favorite teachers. Ever. He truly cares for his students and he wants all of us to be successful teachers. Show up, pay attention, do the study guide he gives a week before the test, and there is no excuse as to why you can't make an A. TAKE MR. DORE!
Make sure you show up to class and do what your told.
As long as you're active and talk in his class, you'll do fine. Super nice guy and he's willing to help students who come to him. He's also a great storyteller, some of his stories are hilarious.
Mr. Dore is the best EDFL 106 teacher! He tells stories about his experiences as a principal that are funny and helpful. Super easy tests with study guides. A few short papers, but he doesn't grade them too hard. A few bonus opportunities. Show up, do your observations, and you'll pass. He does take attendance and you can only miss two classes.
Mr dore was by far my best teacher I have taken at ULL, his lessons were knowledgeable, his past experiences helped us understand our future experiences, he was extremely helpful and insightful, respected the students, was a always available to us , I would recommend Mr dore for any class he teaches , he has my upmost respect and I thank him
Mr. Dore was an amazing teacher. His class is also an easy A if you go to class and study the study guide. I would recommend him to anyone in education!
Professor Dore is an amazing education professor. He tells amazing stories because he has so much experience. As long as you pay attention and study the study guides this class is extremely easy and enjoyable.
Truly an amazing teacher. For the first time in a long time I actually enjoyed attending class. Do yourself a favor and take this class. You won't regret it!
Mr. Dore' is amazing. He is always there to answer any questions you have. Tests aren't too hard (he gives study guides) and there are a few other activities (group project, short essays, etc). Do your work, turn your assignments in on time and get an A.
If you are in education I STRONGLY advise taking this professor for EDFL 106. He is the epitome of a leader and absolutely exceptional in his profession. Mr. Dore' was in the public school system for 38 yrs and has so much experience and wisdom to share. He has a very extensive knowledge on education and has literally seen every aspect of it.
Absolutely my favorite teacher. Wasn't a class that we didn't have a one on one conversation. Extremely nice and loves to teach. Makes me look forward to teaching more and more everyday class. Not another teacher like him.
super easy. its a decent amount of work and makes you work for your A. show up and do the little bit of work and do your observation hours you'll for sure pass with an A. definitely 10/10 recommend
5 Exams (including final), 2 Papers, 2 group presentations. LessonBook Great teacher!!! Definitely recommend taking him, any day!
Between his hilarious stories, helpful hand, and experience, I don't see any reason not to take him.
Overall, solid professor. Do work and respect him and he is super awesome.
Dr. Dore is the professor that goes above and beyond what is asked of him, which I believe to be a good thing when trying to teach and inspire a new generation of teachers. I left his class inspired, and I discovered the kind of teacher it is I wish to be. He is always available to help and sends weekly emails so you never fall behind in the class.
If you ask me he's an awesome professor, you just have to do your work and participate a little or you will be called on, complete group work assignments and study, very little reading because he discusses most of it. There are 5 Exams (including final), 2 Papers, 2 group presentations. Get the book, He highlights everything for the test in book.
Mr. Dore is an awesome professor. He is one of the best that I have had in my time at University of Louisiana at Lafayette. You can tell he really cares about students and wants them to succeed. If he sees you putting in the work he won't let you fail, however, don't be lazy and expect to pass. Test are not bad as long as you understand subject.
Great educator who truly looks out for his students. You will not find another professor as passionate about his students well being as he is.
Easily one of the best teachers I've had. He cares a lot about his student and is really hard to fail the class. Any kind of effort will be awarded. He wants the best for his students and he will get the best out of you.
The best professor I've had at UL. He teaches from the book so it's very straight forward. He also tells lots of interesting stories from his experience as a high school principal. Makes the class fun to go to. Just do your observations and study for tests. It's an easy A.
Mr. Dore was by far one of the best professors I ever had at this University. He's caring, sweet, and loves to tell stories. His test are exactly the study guide so it's really easy to pass. A few presentations but nothing too serious. Overall, great professor and would definitely take him again.
I was extremely lazy and barely ever did any homework my first semester of college and I passed this class with a C doing the absolute bare minimum. Going to class is a must!!!! Attendance grade goes down a lot even from one missed class. Tests were kinda hard but as long as you participate and do the homework and field experiences you'll pass
Mr. Dore' made bland subjects more interesting by encouraging comments ad group discussion. I really enjoyed the class, and he enjoyed that I participated. All learning is done through the textbook, so the information is very straightforward.
Mr. Dore truly cares about the success of his students. He is very detailed when explaining assignments and gives great feedback on those assignments if finished before the due date. He doesn't just lecture out of a book either, he shares stories from past experiences that make the class much more interesting. Tests are easy. Gives study guides.
He spends a great deal of time talking about the aspects and work that a teacher will tend to in the education profession. That being said, he is highly intelligible and provides extensive feedback to his students. His class is demanding, and there is an expectation that is achievable for those who put in the effort. I recommend Mr. Dore to anyone.
He is a good teacher but also likes to play Devil advocate when a group is giving a presentation with is fine because not all students in a classroom will agree with a lesson once we become educators. He also cares about participation and will deduct points for missing too many classes.
SWEETEST man ever! Highly recommend. Few test plus he gives study guides (basically the test) Very easy course
Class is easy if you attend. If you do the study guides you will pass test easily. He is really funny and gives really helpful information.
I wish I could take him for more classes. All around great teacher.
Easily one of the best teachers Ive had in my time in school. Easy to learn from because of the stories he tells. I think everyone should have Mr. Dore!
Mr Dore is a great teacher. You can tell that he really wants all of his students to pass and he will do everything to help you make that happen.
Mr. Doré was the best professor I ever had. He made my semester really enjoyable just by going to his class. Hes super nice and he really cares about his students. If you show effort he will help you in any way possible. I made an A easily so just study for the tests by using the study guides he gives and you should make an A easily.
Ronald Dore is absolutely one of the best professors on campus. He has many years of experience in education, with stories to back it up. If you ask him about anything he will give you an answer and tell you why. If you take his class expect him to use his years of experience to motivate you to doing quality work, he wont let you slack off.
He is a great teacher that did a lot for me which showed me that he wanted me to succeed. He really likes it when you participate in class. The class itself is not too difficult, just time consuming. The main components of the class was 10 observation hours, input observations in Via, teaching philosophy paper, and 2 group presentations.
Mr. Dore teaches lessons in a way that covers all information and forcusses on the specific information for assessments. Mr. Dore is very experienced and in every lesson he teaches he just about has a primary example to explain that helps better understanding. He is very supportive of his students and provides weekly update information. Favorite
Mr. Dore is a good professor with a lot of experience, but I feel like I didn't learn much in his class. He started class with some random stories and chainmail things like what my grandma gets lol. 10 observation hours, a paper, 2 group presentations, and 4 exams took up a lot of time outside of class. But if you do the work you should be fine.
Mr. Dore is totally awesome. I learned so much from his class and this is an introduction to education. I especially enjoyed the stories that he said that went along with the chapters. He works hard to make sure the students learn and his information goes beyond the book. His experiences as a past teacher and administrator make his class great.
Mr. Dore is such an amazing professor. His class was my escape from the heavy workload of other classes. Attendance is necessary. You are only allowed two absences. Study guide questions are in the exact same order on the test. Be very familiar with the study guide and you will pass the test
He is the most caring teacher I have ever had. He is incredibly passionate about the subject matter, making the course very enjoyable.
He is a great professor! Loves to get off track and tell stories, but there interesting! You can tell that he really cares, just have to show that you are trying. The test are not the easiest but there is a lot of other assignments that can keep you with a good grade. Would definitely tell everyone to take him!
Ronald Dore' was the best professor I've had so far. He is so passionate about what he teaches and truly cares about his students. He does whatever he needs to make sure his students have the necessary resources to pass. I suggest taking Mr. Ronald Dore' if you want a professor who cares about your future as a teacher.
Was very understanding when i had health issues and worked with me.
Mr. Doré is one of the best professors in campus. Just listen to his lectures and take your notes for the exams.
I absolutely LOVED Mr. Dore'! He was very helpful to a first time freshman. He has plenty of experience and knows what he is doing. My favorite part of the class was his storytelling! The field experiences were one of my favorite as well. He gives study guides exactly like the test but still study, because he will word the test tricky.
Least favorite professor of this semester. Shares personal stories that dont pertain to the subject matter. Also shares private embarrassing stories about students in his other classes. Very unprofessional. Also asked inappropriate questions in class & expected us to raise our hands to answer. Grades hard. Have to write A LOT for the observations.
Love him this semester; he cares for his students cuz he is passionate about what he teaches; has sense of humor; if you go to class, participate, listen to his lecture you will do fine. Also, expect to do couple of oral presentations but they are not bad. You also learn so much when observing. Schedule Mr. Dore;
He was the best! Made me know that I for sure wanted to be a teacher. There are a bunch of group presentations but they are easy! The stories he tells are hilarious but always pertain to the current lesson we are discussing!
Great professor. Would recommend taking him if you get the chance. He can be a little strict at times but it's because he has high expectations for his students. He gives you multiple opportunities to get feedback and help on assignments. He wants his students to pass. Amazing stories and is overall hilarious.
One of the best professors Ive had. He was an actual teacher and principal and does everything he can to ensure his students get the knowledge and pass his class. I was minutes away from changing my major from education and he was the reason why I stayed in the college of education. Highly recommend him! Hes easily accessible outside of class.
Literally the best professor EVER. He is one of the most caring teachers Ive ever had he will go out of his way to ensure every student has what they need to be successful in the college of education However his tests can be a little tricky by his wording so be aware of that when you are studying does give a study guide thats in the order of test
Mr. Dore was such a great teacher! He gave personal stories in class that related to what we were going over that really made you remember the information! There are a few group presentations, but if you're going to be a teacher, you need to get used to that anyway. You're missing out if you don't take him for EDFL 106!
Mr. Dore was the best! He made the class fun and easy ! He told many stories and made the class interesting! Tests were easy. Very much PowerPoint based and there is an easy at the end but it was not hard! I definitely recommend !!!
Dore is a very sweet man and I enjoyed his class.
He was a great professor he had high expectations and pushes you to submit your best work Just dont procrastinate too much because its a lot of work.
I really enjoyed Mr. Dore's class. He grades kind of hard and his assignments take a lot of effort and work, but he is a former principal so he has high expectations for his students and wants us to succeed as prospective teachers. He gives good feedback and responds to emails fast and grades pretty quick. Would definitely recommend his class!
He started the year off by saying how only 1/3 of us would make it through the program, he was extremely hard when it came to grading papers and assignments. He is very particular on what he wants and how he wants everything done. Also just not very personable, I would not take any of his courses again.
When I had him, he only gave us one test and the rest were power points and presentations. Hes not always clear with his instructions for assignments but dont be scared to ask him to clarify. He tends to go off on tangents and stories during class but they are usually entertaining. Overall, highly recommend taking his class.
Mr.Dore' is a good teacher with a lot of good, funny stories. You never had homework. You have like 2 powerpoints, 2 presentations, and 3 tests. His class is not hard as long as you go to class. He will give a study guide with ideas & page numbers through the chapter. Go find each idea and write down everything about the idea. Put the time in.
He tells a lot of stories since he has had experience from teaching and being a principal. He honestly spoonfed us and told us exactly what he wanted. I would definitely take him again.
Hard grader but gives good feedback. If you go to class and read the textbook, you'll be fine
LOVE LOVE LOVE Mr. Dore!!!! Sweetest guy you will ever meet. Knows when it's time to get things done, but also knows how to make class fun with his humor. There is a bit of work, but most of it he has to give. The only extra things are one presentation with a partner and quizzes that are super duper easy! Def recommend
I just adore Mr. Dore! He is the sweetest person ever and ensures that you do your task on time. Attendance is mandatory, 3 points off every UNEXCUSED absence. We had all 2 presentations in class. Mr. Dore is one of the best professors I've had since I started here. If you have to take this class, I recommend that you take Mr. Dore.
Mr. Dore is one of the most dedicated professors I have ever had. He holds himself to a high standard, but he extends this to his students. He wants to see you succeed, and will help you if you ask!
Mr. Dore is a phenomenal teacher. He is retiring this semester, so you won't find him anymore, but if he ever comes back, take his class! No complaints. Sometimes, he can be a difficult grader. As long as you do everything to a "T", you'll be good. 1 paper each week to prepare for the big final paper, so lots of research and writing. Super kind.
