BEST PROF EVER!!! She is truly amazing but be warned FR6 is not for the faint of heart! This class is extremely difficult, not because of the prof but because of content. Be warned!

Marion Labatut is one of, if not, the most amazing professor I have ever had at UCSB. She is a light in the classroom and inspires students to have a good time while learning. I woke up each morning happy to attend her class which made participation easy! I highly recommend her for any French course.

Marion is an amazing professor! You can tell how much passion and work she has put into the class from the preparation she did for every class. And you will master the grammar if you listen carefully in class. She is also caring and fun. Très bonne prof !

Marion has a big heart and cares deeply for her students. Sometimes she can be a bit aggressive but it's never with malintent, she just wants to see that you are trying and care about your work. She is also a bit strict but it balances out with how relatively cool and down to Earth she is. Marion really is the best french professor to learn under!

I took 3 straight quarters of French(FR4-6) with Marion so I am hella biased. That said, she was the best teacher I could have asked for. She is a passionate, caring, and understanding teacher and she really helped me learn the language! She creates a very welcome and inviting classroom so asking questions and trying to learn was highly encouraged

Marion is one of the most enthusiastic and honest professors youll ever have the pleasure of meeting. Going above and beyond the textbook to French culture, she encourages creativity and integrates humour into every class. Despite the demands of the program, she ensures any student had the chance to succeed as long as you show interest.
