Easy class. Almost all of the time was spent with Mme Horne talking about minutia in French history, which would have been wonderful if I had already known the basics. All graded work is in the form of journal entries/short papers. Most of the grading was based on grammar/vocab mistakes, which is strange bc little of the class time covered those things.

Janet Horne is a wonderful woman and a great teacher. We covered quite a bit of material but it wasn't very difficult. She likes to throw out fun/unrelated facts at random and is willing to help if you're having any trouble with writing or speaking. Highly recommended!
