Muriel L
Muriel is an outstanding tutor. My son needed some guidance with his A-level French. She helped him through all 3 exams giving tips for the Oral, exam, grammar help and the literature/film paper. She spoke in French throughout and gave him the confidence he was lacking. She knows the curriculum inside out and can help on exam technique as well as the French itself. She is kind, flexible and committed. Couldn't have asked for better, a real gem! We feel very lucky to have found her. Highly Recommend.

Nathalie has been a wonderful tutor for our son. She has adapted the lessons to support the areas he needed help with the most, so each session was focused and on point. As our son has ADHD she has great patience and always kept him engaged. We could not have made it through the exams without her help!

Florence B
Flo has been amazing. Her lessons really engaged my son and the improvements were visible from the first few sessions and he continued to improve throughout. Her lessons were tailored to his needs and she listened to his concerns and helped him address this. His French teacher was so impressed by his progress she asked what his secret was!
On top of all of this Flo has managed to foster a real love of the language and despite my son sitting his GCSE French this year he wants to continue learning the language with Flo! Honestly cannot recommend Flo enough!😃
