I always enjoy Marianne’s class. I’ve been taking them since 101. Her attention to detail (and patience lol) without diction and comprehension is appreciated at the advanced level. I’m not sure how she does it so well on Zoom, but she does. She also provides emails on current French events so we can participate and enhance our cultural learnings. I really appreciate this continued learning. Also, to coincide with teachings in the book and from online class, she follows up with additional information on the topics each week.

French history is complicated and long. This class covered many of the highlights and made some of the common threads more clear. The instructor adapted well to the level of the class. The individual projects brought personal interests to the whole class and was a great vehicle for us all to learn more.

Dahmane is an excellent teacher. Knowledgeable, imaginative, firm, but forgiving. Advanced course – useful to hear native speaker’s conversation. A lot of class participation considering zoom sessions.
