Marion is very caring and passionate about her work, which makes her a good teacher. I personally found the class a little boring as she just went through her notes every day, but it was easy.

Marion is very passionate about teaching. She is friendly and responds quickly to emails. She provides great feedback on compositions and excels in breaking down difficult grammatical concepts. She encourages students to participate and speak French but not in an aggressive manner. UCSB is lucky to have her as an instructor.

Marion is a wonderful French professor. Points out the nuance in the language you wouldn't get in other classes. Also funny and it's clear she cares about her students a lot. Literally everything you would want in a French teacher. Also shout out FR 5 students !

Bonjour! J'ai pris le cours de Francais 5 et 6 avec elle. Marion a un air de jeunesse qui inspire la classe. Elle m'a encouragé de chercher les opportunités pour apprendre plus. Il y a beacoup de devoirs. D'habitude, ils sont pas tres difficile mais ils durent longtemps. J'adore l'atmosphère de la classe et je vous conseille de le suivre avec elle!
