Stephen M
Effective French tutor
I am friendly, approachable and experience tutor in Literature, Languages and Humanities. I started tutoring soon after finishing my Joint Honours degree in English and French at Magdalen College, Oxford, but fortunately I found that my education had only just started! Therefore, I have spent over a decade now working with students - both in state and private education - in French, English Literature, Classics and History of Art. Tutoring normally from Key Stage 3 to Key Stage 5, specialising in GCSEs and A levels, I would say that my lessons are usually planned collaboratively. I take the student’s l...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive course at UCL. Can a tutor help strengthen their application?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for top universities. They can focus on securing A/A* grades in French, which significantly strengthens a UCAS application, and help your child develop the analytical and communication skills that admissions tutors at places like UCL and King's College value highly.

The standard of French at my child's school in North London is very high. How can a tutor give them an edge?

We understand the pressure in many Highbury and North London schools. A one-to-one tutor provides a space where your child can go beyond the curriculum, explore advanced topics, and refine their skills without the pressure of the classroom. This extra depth of knowledge and confidence is often the key to standing out amongst high-achieving peers.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How do I choose the right French tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and goals.

How much does a French tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term commitments.

How do online lessons actually work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a document-sharing function, making it easy for your child and their tutor to work through everything from grammar exercises to past papers together.

Can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in French?

Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. A patient, encouraging tutor can create a safe space for your child to ask questions and build their self-belief. Celebrating small wins in a one-to-one setting can make a huge difference to their confidence.

How are the tutors vetted?

We take your child's safety very seriously. Every tutor must pass an interview, have their ID verified, and provide a valid DBS check. We're very selective – we only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to join our platform.

How often should my child have a lesson?

This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Most students have one lesson a week, but you can arrange more frequent sessions during crucial times like the run-up to exams. You can discuss what's best with your chosen tutor.

What levels of French do you cover?

We cover all levels, from primary school and 11+ right through to GCSE, A-Level, and even university-level French. Whether your child is just starting or preparing for a final exam, we have a tutor who can help.

Does tutoring really improve grades?

We see fantastic results every day. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The personalised attention and tailored lessons really help students to understand tricky topics and perform their best. With over 4,100 reviews giving us a 4.6-star rating, parents consistently tell us about the positive impact it has.

Can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in French?

While we're here to help with core subjects like French, we believe in learning for life! We have expert tutors who can teach a huge range of skills and hobbies, from learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python.
