Kathy F
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. Whilst at school and even at university, I had one-on-one help and I would not have got the grades if it was not for this extra help. That is why I want to help those who may need the extra help to get the grades they want.I did my A levels at a school as opposed to a college and this gave me the experience to work with the lower parts of the school (junior and senior). I would help...

Roberto F
Dedicated French tutor
I am a determined person with an always positive attitude towards working. I enjoy working with other people as well as helping them to achieve their goals- for example, I always peer assess my colleagues essays before they submit them. I am seriously thinking about embarking upon a masters in either TESOL or archives and records management before qualifying to become either a teacher of English to foreign speakers or an archivist- both careers interest me greatly. Furthermore, I have recently completed a nine month placement in central France teaching English to primary school children aged 4-11,...

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 ...

’ve had a really great experience learning French with Sandrine. She listens to my needs and adapts lessons to suit what I want to work on, which helps a lot. She’s supportive, patient, and never makes me feel like I’m not good enough, which has really built my confidence. I’d definitely recommend her, especially for A-level French students.

Genevieve M
Genevieve is a fantastic tutor. She is extremely engaging to learn from, explaining everything very patiently and clearly, and she has a really good sense of humour. I’m particularly impressed by the effort she puts in to prepare extra learning materials for me between classes based on the specifics of what I struggled with in the previous lesson. I really didn’t expect that level of additional work from her, it’s so thoughtful and helpful. I intend to be learning French up to conversational fluency so I need many, many hours of teaching, and I am therefore very glad I chose Genevieve to deliver them as she makes the time fly by.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a top university like the University of Leeds. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can help your child secure the strong GCSE and A-Level grades needed for competitive university courses. They can focus on building the deep subject knowledge and exam technique that top universities like the University of Leeds look for in applicants.
The secondary schools in Horsforth are very competitive. Can a tutor help my child keep up?
Yes. One-to-one tutoring is a fantastic way to help your child manage the fast pace of a competitive school. A tutor can take the time to go over topics your child didn't quite grasp in class, reinforce their understanding, and help them feel prepared and confident for their lessons.
What if my child doesn't click with their first French tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, 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 to see their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. Many tutors also have introduction videos, which are a great way to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's needs.
How can a tutor help my child with their confidence in speaking French?
Speaking a new language can be daunting. A one-to-one session provides a safe, supportive space for your child to practise speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a whole class. Tutors use conversation practice to build fluency and confidence at your child's own pace.
My child is struggling with specific GCSE topics like tenses and grammar. Can a tutor focus on these?
Definitely. That's the main benefit of one-to-one tutoring. The lessons are completely tailored to your child's needs. The tutor can dedicate entire sessions to mastering tricky grammar, practising exam questions, or anything else your child needs to feel secure in the subject.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an ID and background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How much does online French tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see the hourly rate on each tutor's profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Tutors provide regular feedback on your child's progress, and you'll be able to see their confidence grow. Many parents tell us they see a difference not just in test scores but in their child's whole attitude towards a subject. Our 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews reflects the positive results families see.
How does online tutoring actually work? What do we need?
It's simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our online classroom, which features an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing to make learning engaging and effective.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most tutoring sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.
Are the tutors background-checked?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, learn a new language for fun, or pick up any other new skill, you can find an expert tutor to help them.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
