It's a language class so you gotta do a fair bit of actual studying or youll fail. We did a lot of projects which honestly saved my grades from my horrid tests/quiz scores. Theres a good amount of extra credit opportunity by participating or doing extra which you should always take cause you'll probably need it.

Focus on confidence-as long as you try your best she'll be happy. if you're presenting, make sure you're prepared and try to ask your questions before instead of during the presentation. with speaking just guess-she'll correct you if you're wrong.

For projects, go all out. If not, you will receive a bad grade, even if your effort is above average. Focus more on how you present rather than what you present.

she's a nice teacher and very sympathetic towards her student's health but does end up playing favorites a lot. she's very busy with french club and different events so there isn't much time to get help. if you need help, i recommend a tutor instead of constantly getting help from her.
