Broken English

Oh damn, how does one tell a fanfic author on AO3 that their ideas are charming and one would like to see more of them, but it's blaringly obvious that English isn't their first language (I'd guess French or maybe Italian), and they should get a beta. Because what they write is worth reading, but I just can't -- all that without kicking off a flame and wank war?

There is no PM function on AO3, either.-

The Sorbonne doesn't teach science any more. That was moved to a university with the creative name Université Paris VII (or whatever number) wich is an absolutely uninspirational block of concrete.
In Germany you can't go wrong with the TU or LMU München. There are some (sometimes very small) universities that have a very good rating for their science department. You would have to check current rankings though.

Oh thank you so much!

He is in the IB program in high school here (which qualifies him for international schools). He speaks both languages (he's 1/2 and 1/2). His father is French which is why I suggested from France but he actually was the one who said he thought might like to try to study in Germany since he has so many relatives there.

I'll pass the info on. Thanks!
