Guided French Support, Matched to Your Child
Taking the first step into tutoring can feel like a big decision. You do not need to become an expert in finding a tutor. Instead, you share a few details about your child – their French level, what they find challenging, or how they learn best. We then carefully consider your needs to recommend a small selection of tutors who truly fit, rather than presenting a vast list for you to sift through alone.
Your child learns from home in Leeds, meaning no travel disruption. This opens access to excellent French tutors from across the entire UK, not just those nearby. If the initial match does not feel quite right, we will cover the first session with a new tutor. This is support that works for your child and your family life.

Claire A
Daughter has been working with Claire for 3 months now for her A Level French. Claire has been amazing and everything is super easy on the app to communicate and change lesson dates when needed. Claire established a good rapport with our daughter from the start. Our daughter provided further glowing feedback: she is ‘low key a normal person’ and ‘helping me improve so much... She’s the first tutor you found that I actually like’.

Suzanne S
I highly recommend Suzanne as a tutor for GCSE French. My daughter went up two grades to achieve a grade 9 with some very focused lessons in the run up to the exams. Suzanne was amazing at building my daughter's enthusiasm and confidence and every lesson was well planned and enjoyable. We were so lucky to find such a supportive and lovey teacher!

Sasha W
I would recommend Sasha to help with A Level French without hesitation. She helped my daughter primarily with her speaking and writing exams. Sasha is friendly and approachable, and built a rapport quickly with my daughter, making her feel comfortable and confident! With the speaking exam, Sasha always prepared thorough and insightful questions to practice a ‘mock’ exam, giving her confidence and improving her analytical skills in French. In regards to the writing, Sasha was able to effectively identify which areas needed improvement the most, with constructive feedback. As a result, my daughter achieved an A* and achieved nearly full marks in the writing paper, and we have no doubt that Sasha’s input very much contributed to this. She is a fabulous tutor, thank you Sasha!!!
