Daughter has been working with Claire for 3 months now for her A Level French. Claire has been amazing and everything is super easy on the app to communicate and change lesson dates when needed. Claire established a good rapport with our daughter from the start. Our daughter provided further glowing feedback: she is ‘low key a normal person’ and ‘helping me improve so much... She’s the first tutor you found that I actually like’.

I highly recommend Suzanne as a tutor for GCSE French. My daughter went up two grades to achieve a grade 9 with some very focused lessons in the run up to the exams.

Sasha W
I would recommend Sasha to help with A Level French without hesitation. She helped my daughter primarily with her speaking and writing exams. Sasha is friendly and approachable, and built a rapport quickly with my daughter, making her feel comfortable and confident! With the speaking exam, Sasha always prepared thorough and insightful questions to practice a ‘mock’ exam, giving her confidence and improving her analytical skills in French. In regards to the writing, Sasha was able to effectively identify which areas needed improvement the most, with constructive feedback. As a result, my daughter achieved an A* and achieved nearly full marks in the writing paper, and we have no doubt that Sasha’s input very much contributed to this. She is a fabulous tutor, thank you Sasha!!!
