FRENCH 101
Quality 4/5Difficulty 1/5
As a teacher, Melissa really gives clear and informative lectures. Interactions during class also helps me practice and improve my French oral communication skills. She is very lenient when it comes to grading either tests or homework. As a person, she is friendly and kind. She knows how to make fun of French culture during class.
