Creative French tutor
I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities.

I would help...

Rebecca B
About a year ago I asked for Rebecca's help for my son. At the time he was in year 10 and had been teaching himself French for Duke of Edinburgh silver. He asked if he could do GCSE French in year 11. We found Rebecca who gave an honest assessment and plan and has been amazing in making his dream come true. I cannot recommend her highly enough. My son has really enjoyed working with her.
