Students currently enrolled in an undergraduate French language, literature, or culture course at any level from the beginning to the advanced level are welcome to see our departmental tutors for help with their French language skills. Students can ask about any area of vocabulary, grammar, or syntax about which they have questions. Students cannot, however, ask the tutors to read over essays, oral presentation scripts, or any other written assignment of this type (whether a first draft or a corrected draft) to find errors or to check for general correctness.
Tutors will meet in room 624, at 19 University Place, 6th floor.
