Robert F
Professional French tutor
Hi, I am Robert, a recent French and Arabic graduate from the University of Cambridge. I began tutoring part-time right after finishing university in summer last year, and have been enjoying it so much that I am now looking to become a full-time tutor.I have loved learning languages for as long as I can remember, which led me to study four in total during my time at school and university. These include French (GCSE, A-level, University), Spanish (GCSE, A-level), Arabic (University), and German (GCSE). I achieved an A* in all of my language exams at GCSE and A-level, as well as a 2.1 at university.I...

Charlotte R
Giving French tuition that je ne sais quoi
For over 8 years, I have worked with, and currently work with students of a wide range of ages, levels, and abilities, to achieve their goals. I have excellent experience with AQA, Edexcel, OCR/CIE & Eduqas exam boards. 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...

Rebecca B
Rebecca is not only a lovely, caring and patient person but an incredible tutor who clearly shows so much care for each and every one of her students. I started lessons with Rebecca due to immense anxiety about my GCSE French orals. I was getting 5s and 6s in French and in the 5 weeks leading up to my GCSE's I managed to get an 8 in my GCSE French which was beyond my predicted grade and my belief! Her approach to revising, immense patience and support made me so much more confident in the Language (not only for my exams but for even my trip to France this summer) and thats so much more than I could ask for. if you are looking for a GCSE French tutor Rebecca is the way to go!! Merci!

Louise G
Louise has been a wonderful French tutor for my son over the past year. When he began lessons with her, he was working around a Grade 5 level in French at school. Through her patient teaching, encouragement, and structured approach, his confidence and ability grew enormously.
By the time of his GCSEs, he achieved a brilliant Grade 8, a result we are absolutely delighted with. Louise made the subject engaging and approachable, always tailoring her sessions to his needs and making sure he developed both the language skills and exam techniques required.
I am very grateful for her support and would highly recommend Louise to any parent looking for an excellent French tutor.

Muriel L
Muriel has been a great tutor for my son through A level French. She worked with him through Year 13 after Year 12 saw him really drop below what he was capable of in terms of grades. They worked hard together and I’m delighted to say he came out with an A at the end - thank you Muriel for all your hard work!

Laurent is a fabulous tutor and I cannot recommend him highly enough! My daughter has had his support for her GCSE French and has gone from struggling with confidence in the language to passing her exam with a grade 8, loving it and deciding to continue her French studies into A level. His patient, encouraging and supportive approach was just what we were looking for in a tutor!!
