Great teacher, very clear. He has a clean, no-nonsense style of teaching.

After having done all of the lower division German courses at UCLA, I was a little nervous to switch to French, but Chris made it very manageable. Sometimes we did get a little behind, but that was mostly due to switching in person mid way through the quarter. He presented the material well and did care about our learning. Sadly, I do not know if he will be teaching anymore at UCLA after this year, but if you see his name, don't be afraid to take him!
