List of Courses in the Program
As a boy growing up in Eastern Ontario, I loved going on family trips to Montreal where I could hear people speaking French. Since then, I have lived and studied in France and French has become the language of my heart.” Anthony brings a rich cultural and intellectual perspective to his teaching. He is particularly interested in French art and uses it in class as an introduction to French culture. In addition to UCalgary, he has taught university courses in Germany, France and Brazil. ”
