Valentine et moi prenons aussi des cours de rockle vendredi. Elle est une très bonne danseuse, et quant à moi, je fais de mon mieux !

This was marked as wrong, for the "Elle est" part. It says that I should use "C'est une très bonne danseuse" and points me to this lesson. Après moi, y a quelque chose qui cloche là... Is it really wrong to use "Elle est"? If so, why?

I understand that, in general, you'd use "c'est" when it's followed by an indefinite article, but that rule doesn't seem to apply in this case. Correct or not, it just doesn't sound right to me. Moreover, the fact remains whether "elle est" is actually wrong here.

PS: btw, the option "Send email notifications of new answers" here below doesn't seem to be working. I've seen people answer my questions and I never got an email for that.

Why is this wrong? We were driving in Paris when ... It seems like the perfect use of this structure. You suggest using the imparfait for conduire vs en train de. Why? 

I see the question asks for conduire in imparfait but I’m still curious why since this seems to call for en train de. Thanks again! 

Unlike other explanatory lessons in Lawless French, I find this lesson incredibly difficult to understand.(And. I think I'm a decent student!) I'd like to recommend that you all give it a big cleansing edit. And now, I'll go back and re-read it (for about the fourth time) and try to figure out what I'm supposed to learn.

In the example when it says il pense à elle and it means he’s thinking of her. But in another example it says je parle de lui which means I speak of him. So de and à both mean of in these examples so I will as wondering when I would use à and when I would use de.

I always thought the "f" was pronounced in "oeufs", but in the video she does not pronounce the ending. Are both forms possible? 

We've been taught here on Kwiziq "n'importe où" but not "qu'importe où." So what is "qu'importe où?" 

Does s’en aller take the future proche?  In other words, are “je m’en vais” and “je vais m’en aller” both correct ways of saying “I am leaving”? And if so, are they completely interchangeable, or do they have different senses or nuances?

Thank you!

I thought you always used the "ne + subjonctif" construction after "avant que"

Pourquoi elle trouve Andrew charmant ? Pourquoi pas elle trouve qu'Andrew est charmant ?

So if venir de + infinitive means to have just done something, why has ‘juste’ been introduced in the sentence “Je viens juste d’emménager”. It sounds a bit like “i’ve just just moved”.
