Giving French tuition that je ne sais quoi

For over 5 years, I have worked with, and currently work with students of a wide range of ages, levels, and abilities, to achieve their goals.

Ella F

My 13 yo daughter started with Ella recently and really enjoys the French lessons. She says there are even basic things Ella teaches her that she would never have discovered at school and which she finds really helpful and stimulating. She grew in confidence after the first lesson and really looks forwards to lessons. As a parent I also find communication with Ella really easy and I would highly recommend her to other families.

Marie is helping my daughter prepare for her French GCSE exams. She is very professional and friendly. My daughter gets on well with her. Marie is prepared for each lesson, which are done online, and tailors her support for where it’s required. There were a few minor issues with the online platform on the first couple of sessions but Marie worked around them and all was fine.

Ryan G

We looked at a couple of GCSE French tutors and Ryan is the one my son chose because he said he was easy to understand and logical in his approach. He is reliable, a good communicator and given that Zac "hates" French he has made the lessons interesting, productive and bearable for him! No mean feat! Zac is quite happy to sit and work through the exercises with Ryan and although it is early days I hope we will see some improvement in his French lessons at school. As a person Ryan is polite, pleasant, reliable and thorough. He comes well prepared to each lesson and I have no hesitation in recommending him if you are looking for a maths or French tutor.

Ellie has been brilliant - she has made a huge difference to Izzie's French - taking her from predicted D to predicted B. She always comes well prepared and is a great tutor. We only have one session left before GCSE and we will miss her. Thanks for everything Ellie.
