He was able to make Medieval French Literature, a fairly dry subject, really interesting. Truly a great prof, and exams are very easy so long as you listen in his lectures. Would definitely recommend.

He is a sweet guy and makes the class atmosphere fun, but he is very unorganized and doesn't really care if you're doing well or not. I would not advise taking a class with him.

I had Driss for French 2045 and I genuinely loved being in his class. He is always in a good mood and makes grammar seem interesting. He really cares about his students. I am in another class with him this year and hope to have more in the future!

He is by far one of Dalhousie's best profs! Love him to death, such a breath of fresh air! I loved his class and is very understanding, if you need to hand in a paper late or you "forgot" to bring it to class you can just email it to him. He difinitly knows that his class is not the only class you are taking, unlike most profs at al. Great Guy!

Great Prof who really loved the subject and always had a little joke to say when the class was getting bored. Exams were sometimes surprisingly easy.
