My experience with Dufresne was great. She is challenging, quick, and expects you to come prepared to class. She is also very accomplished at assessing where you are in terms of your comfort with the language, and is patient. She may appear to be a little harsh, but that's only because she wants you to participate and TRY!!! She won't penalize you for saying something wrong in class, it's the effort that counts. And trust me, you will speak in that class. My French improved so much in her class. She does assign a lot of homework, but most of it is pretty easy if you know the concepts and pay attention. Just stay on top of your assignments, DON'T MISS CLASS if you can help it, and go to her office hours. She can seem intimidating in class because she is forward, but in office hrs, she's , well, its just you and her. She is actually French, too, so she brings a great perspective. Exams are cool, you always know whats going to be on them. You read a novel in the class (all in French) and she walks you through it. Just try not to fall too far behind. Bon chance!
