Lina H
Professional and inspiring French and English tutor
Maths is usually the subject students struggle with most at school mainly due to the lack of individual help during lessons. Students often don’t ask for help when faced with a topic they find hard and so they develop gaps in their learning, which in itself become problematic later on. In my opinion the first objective of private tutoring in maths should be to systematically deal with those gaps, which are usually identified within the first couple of lessons. Once the gaps are covered, we can then proceed to cover the necessary course material based on individual requirements.I have extensive e...

their tutors made a difference
Find a tutor 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!!!

I am very grateful to Catherine for teaching my son French. My son attended a new school at the end of Year 8 and new to French. He managed to catch up with the syllabus after one term. Catherine is kind, warm and friendly, and explains concepts clearly and patiently. My son feels confident going forward in doing French in Year 9. Thank you, Catherine!

Esther has been a fantastic French tutor for my daughter. She is professional, patient, reliable and always punctual. After each lesson, she leaves helpful notes and feedback, which makes it easy to follow my daughter's progress.
With Esther's support and guidance, my daughter achieved a Grade 9 in GCSE French, which we are absolutely delighted with. We really appreciate all the time and effort Esther has put into helping her prepare for her GCSE.
I would highly recommend Esther to anyone looking for a professional and supportive French tutor.

Claire D
My lessons with Claire helped me achieve an 8 in my French GCSE, despite previously getting low 7s in my school tests. Claire provided me with a wide range of useful resources, tips and exam techniques, and worked through several past papers with me. Her lessons improved my vocabulary and grammar, which are areas that many students find challenging. I’m grateful for her support and would recommend her as a French tutor to those aiming for similar results.

Rebecca was patient, organised, encouraging and always thinking of ways my daughter could improve and get better. Her support and kindness and the interest she took in my daughter’s progress was above and beyond expectations. Thank you Rebecca!
