My Summary
About Me
I am a French national and I have been teaching for almost 20 years in the UK. I offer online lessons, I am a fully qualified and experienced teacher, I have worked as a private tutor as well as in schools, teaching GCSE and A level French since I graduated in 2001 (CRB checked). I am passionate about teaching languages and having worked with so many students I know how daunting a French exam can be. I am here to help overcome any difficulties in preparing for these exams, either on the grammar side of French, the exam techniques or the practice of the language itself. I bring with me both the true knowledge of French, its colloquialisms and turns of phrase and a sound understanding of exam techniques which allows me to prepare my students to optimise their ability. Aside from exam preparation I also help with general support in French (KS3 KS4 KS5) or in German (KS3), lessons in school might not always be enough and an additional lesson will strengthen a student's understanding and, crucially, their confidence. I offer a professional, reliable and worthy back up. I also tutor adults who seek conversational development and I offer assistance in a professional expertise in French for example in businesses or employment expanding their market to France.
