Reviews
I had Professor Burton for two semesters and he's great! Although we had a lot of VHL homework and quizzes, the class was fun because of his engaging lectures. He always understood when we struggled a bit and encouraged us to participate even if we weren't confident.

Prof. Allen is one of the kindest and caring professors you will have during college. Though I won't be continuing french I enjoyed her class. Coming to class on time is a MUST and there's a lot of homework & some rather tough grading. Nonetheless if you p/f the class or don't care much for your grade you will have a lot of fun and meet new people.

Madame Allen is the sweetest professor you are ever gonna meet. She cares about her students and loves having conversations and helping us understand the language better. Her class can be difficult just because it is very fast, but she tries her best to help anyone falling behind.

She is literally the most caring and passionate professor I've met so far in WashU. The class is work-heavy but if you really work your ass off, you will get a A. She gives a lot of extra credit work which definitely helped me to get an A. I would love to meet her again in higher level FR classes. She made learning FR interesting and I loved it.

Madame Allen is by far the best professor I've had at WashU. I told her I was *thinking* about being a French minor, and without any hesitation she created a schedule of all the classes I would have to take throughout college in order to achieve that. She's so caring and sweet- I would love to have her again.
