Introduction: I lived and worked in France for a few years. Later in the U.S. I substitute taught French at the middle school and high school level. For a while I gave six-week French courses at UW-Parkside for the Continuing Education Department and tutored one-on-one for Wyzant. My French ability has been attested to by the F.B.I., the University of Paris, Wyzant, Emergent Media, Inc. of Chicago, and the Translation Studies Department of UW-Milwaukee. It enables me to connect with people from other cultures who have not learned English.

He knows how to tackle individuals need. He his first session he figures out exactly where the help is needed and than in future lessons ardently work hard with the student to conquer the weaknesses and lead to success. I’ll rightly recommend Chez Danny.

Chez Denny is a very qualified instructor. You would never know he isn't a native French speaker. He uses a variety of resources to enhance the learning process during tutoring sessions, and gears the lessons toward the student's level.

The instructor knows French and has a passion for the language and the culture. I would consider retaking the courses to improve my skills. It would be helpful to me to use a VERB form chart to practice the verb conjugation and practice (slowly) the verbs...perhaps a verbs conjugation game with short sentences like "I have an apple". She has an orange. I guess I would call them "Dick and Jane"sentences. :)

Thanks for the helpful suggestions, Ruth. I'm so glad you were a part of my classes!

Dennis was good about answering people's questions, providing a variety of activities in class, such as conversation practice, and helping with pronunciation.
