Comment:
A perhaps tough but very dedicated prof who genuinely cared for her students and worked hard to get them to understand the subject. Always willing to put in effort outside the class, and very encouraging for those of us who were a little behind the curve. Also took FR300 with Ms. M. and found it very worthwhile.

Very confusing and not willing to help with anything. Very strict and classes were monotenous.

Comment:
Seems like a high school course. She picks favourites and if you talk she'll hold it against you for the rest of the term. It's almost impossible to understand what she's talking about because she mumbles.. she doesn't teach anything but will put up notes for 10 seconds and expect you to have learn them.

Very confusing, doesnt explain things well. The easiest things she makes impossible. She is very unclear. When she tries to help she ends up making a huge mess of it instead of fixing your problem.

This class was mostly review of what we did up to grade 12. I didn't really learn much. The prof was okay, though.

I'm really not a big fan of hers she can be very cruel to students, so make sure you know your stuff before taking her class.

She is a nice lady, but she mumbles quite a bit so its hard to understand what she is saying if you aren't sitting at the front sometimes. I found the classwork and tests very easy.

Very enthusiastic prof. but unfortunatly tends to hold things against students so don't get her angry at you - this leads her to come off as arrogant at times. I probably won't take another class with her and I don't really recommend her.

She's a decent prof, you learn a lot from her. She's a bit difficult to understand, very thick accent. Speaks too fast for the difficulty level. Good class, though...usually required for people in it.

She's a sweet lady, but she expects you to know the material before you step in the door. She doesn't actually teach anything, she just puts examples on the board. I learned everything out of the text. I was basically taking distance ed while in that class.

Kill you on her quizes. She makes them enuf harder than other profs. Let's suppose theres a quiz on passe compose, she tell you to write an entire paragraph using that and anything dats rong oin da will cause u to loose marks while others profs giv a fillin teh blank quiz. VERY HARD. Saad Baig

I thought she was great. She was always in a cheerful/smiley mood. Loved her Belgian accent.Sure she speaks fast, but how else is one going to aquire listening/comprehension skills? She's very involved with students during class time. Overall, a chic European lady!

Passionate with a lot to offer. The language is hard to understand at first, but she helps the student to progress quite quickly.

I have never put so much effort into a course to learn and achieve so little. I dropped her course - the only one I ever dropped and actually went to France to learn french, she was so unhelpful. She made me cry.

Overall quite decent. Does have the habit of interrupting her own train of thought and cutting herself off in mid sentence or rapidly jumping from topic to topic, which can make things confusing.
