The Right French Support for Your Child in Harrogate
The right tutor does more than just teach the curriculum; they build a partnership with your child. By understanding how your child learns best, they can create a supportive space where it’s safe to ask questions and make mistakes. We help you find that person from our hand-picked tutors – we only accept 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
Every online lesson is built around your child. If they're struggling with verb conjugations or need to refine their essay technique for the A-Level exam, that’s what the session will focus on. This targeted support is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, giving them the specific help they can't always get in a busy classroom.

Creative French tutor
I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities. I am very keen to help pupils to learn and fully understand what they might not get in a classroom environment.

I would help...

Amelia T
Dedicated French tutor
I’m a tutor because I genuinely love it. I’ve been tutoring since 2016 (one-to-one and small groups), and I’m big on making learning feel less like a punishment and more like, “Oh… I can do this.” I’m patient, upbeat, and a bit of a professional translator of “confusing school wording” into plain English. If a student is anxious, overwhelmed, or convinced they’re “bad” at a subject, I’m the person who will gently prove them wrong — step by step, without judgement, and with a few laughs along the way. Progress matters, but confidence is usually the thing that unlocks it. My academic background ...

My son who is in year 8 was really struggling with French so I set about finding a kind, calm and effective tutor to bolster his confidence and to enjoy learning a language.
