I understood maybe 10% of what was said. Afterwards I was able to ask the teacher how DD is doing and am happy to report that she is coping well.
We are going to look for a French tutor as they have an evaluation at the end of this school year and my French is not good enough to read with her.
After the formal part of the evening the teacher disappeared, coming back 2 minutes later with a couple of bottles of wine and some crisini sticks.
