Mara F
Mara is an excellent tutor and is helping me to gain confidence in my study and understanding of French. She listened carefully to my aims when we first met, and tailors our lessons accordingly; as such, my confidence has improved and I am feeling better prepared to attend an intensive course in France than when I was studying alone. Her lessons have a clear structure, so I always know what to expect.
Mara is always prepared, has goals for each lesson and provides constructive feedback in a positive way. She is responsive to messages and sends additional materials to support my studies. I really appreciate Mara's kind manner, especially when I am feeling frustrated with the mistakes I am making. I'm thoroughly enjoying our lessons and would recommend Mara as a tutor without hesitation.
