Having learned French living and working in France, I have a first class degree and twenty years experience teaching French to GCSE and A-level.

I am able therefore to diagnose your strengths and weaknesses in relation to the requirements of the specification, and tailor your tutor sessions accordingly. Many students fear the speaking element of the exam in particular, and I will help...

I have been a tutor for well over a year and have helped over 5 students improve their grades both in GCSEs and A Levels, and have also tutored kids in primary school to prepare for the 11+. I predominantly focus on improving exam technique as this is often disregarded in schools, and yet it is central to gaining good grades in exams. I mainly use past papers in my lessons, to ensure that what we’re doing is absolutely relevant to you. I also use exam board specific marking criteria/ mark schemes alongside the past papers because these are what you examiners will use to mark your exams, so having a...

Hi, I'm Penny, and I'm glad you've stopped by! Here are some wonderful words from my students and their parents: “I would wholeheartedly encourage anyone thinking of booking sessions with Penny to do it and do it now! As a trained actor, I came to Penny with a very unique request. Having very little knowledge of speaking German…. within a week we had a monologue translated, memorised and ready to present to an audition panel. Not only did Penny help me reach my goals but she gave me the upmost confidence to get there. I’m certain I would not have got there if it was not for Penny’s support and ext...

For over 5 years, I have worked with, and currently work with students of a wide range of ages, levels, and abilities, to achieve their goals. From my own experience I think it is important to follow the tutee's needs, and work on those first. I always try to follow the student's lead and tailor sessions as much as possible. For all students I will always try to provide a balanced well-rounded session with a main theme or objective for the session.However, I do like to let the lesson flow and follow your learning speed and style. It's always great if something crops up organically particularly...
