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...

Lina H
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. Students often don’t ask for help when faced with a topic they find hard and so they develop gaps in their learning, which in itself become problematic later on. 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...

I've taught children with SEN, EAL, behavioural problems and gifted children, across all primary stages.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to apply to a top London university like UCL or King's College. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are graduates from top universities themselves and have experience helping students prepare strong applications. They can help your child not only master the French A-Level curriculum but also develop the critical thinking and analytical skills that admissions tutors at places like UCL and King's College look for.
The standards at local Islington schools are very high. Can I find a tutor experienced with helping students aim for top grades (7-9) at GCSE?
Yes, definitely. You can filter tutors by their experience and expertise. Many specialise in helping students secure the highest grades (7, 8, and 9) at GCSE. They understand the specific demands of the exam boards and can provide targeted support to help your child achieve their full potential, which is especially important in a competitive area like Islington.
How do I choose the right French tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. This helps you get a real sense of their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and goals.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the perfect fit for your child. 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. It's really important to us that your child feels comfortable and supported.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors is background-checked and has been through a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How much does a French tutor cost?
Our French tutors set their own hourly rates, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden fees or complicated contracts. You'll find a wide range of options available.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It's a simple and effective way to learn from the comfort of your own home.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in French?
Confidence is often the biggest barrier to progress. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Our tutors are brilliant at breaking down difficult topics, celebrating small wins, and helping your child see that they *can* do it.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like guitar or coding too?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're here to help with core academics like French, Maths, and English, we also have expert tutors who can teach your child practical skills like coding, a new language, or even how to play the guitar.
What if my child has a very specific area they need help with, like French oral exams?
Yes, that's one of the main benefits of one-to-one tutoring. You can find a tutor who specialises in exactly what your child needs, whether that's preparing for their French oral exam, getting to grips with complex grammar, or analysing literature for an essay.
How do online lessons work?
Most families find that one lesson a week works well, especially when preparing for exams like GCSEs. However, it's completely flexible. You can discuss what works best for your child and your family's schedule directly with your chosen tutor.
