Finding the right tutor can feel overwhelming if you are new to this. We make it simple. You answer a few short questions about your child — their French level, what they find challenging, and how they learn best. We then surface a small number of genuinely well-suited French tutors. These aren't just subject experts; they are patient communicators who build confidence, noticing what your child needs to truly grasp a new concept. You won't have to navigate endless profiles alone.
From your home in Edinburgh, your child can access top French tutors from across the UK. This means no travel, no disruption to your family’s schedule, and lessons that fit around their life. If the first tutor isn't quite right, we will cover your first session with a new tutor. It is support that works for your family, on your schedule.

Héloïse R
Enthusiastic French tutor
Hello! I have just finished studying BA Classics at the University of Cambridge, where I was awarded First Class Honours. I sat my A-Levels in 2023, where I achieved 5 A*s in French, History, Latin, Classical Greek and an EPQ, and sat my GCSEs in 2021, where I achieved 12 9s. Sitting these exams recently means I am familiar with the rubrics and specifications of these exams, and am able to tailor lessons to these accordingly. I am offering tutoring in Latin and Classical Greek up to A-Level, and French up to GCSE. I have taken all these exams myself, and understand how difficult it can be to get...

Claire A
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’.

Suzanne S
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. Suzanne was amazing at building my daughter's enthusiasm and confidence and every lesson was well planned and enjoyable. We were so lucky to find such a supportive and lovey teacher!

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!!!
