Professional and inspiring French and English tutor
Maths is usually the subject students struggle with most at school mainly due to the lack of individual help during lessons.

In my opinion the first objective of private tutoring in maths should be to systematically deal with those gaps, which are usually identified within the first couple of lessons. Once the gaps are covered, we can then proceed to cover the necessary course material based on individual requirements.I have extensive e...

Enthusiastic (and patient) tutor of French Tutor for all levels
Hi I have always loved French and have a natural flair and feel for it, so, naturally, I went on to study it atUniversity.

My family and I have now returned to the UKafter more than 12 years of living and working in Paris. In fact, both my children were born in Paris.
