We know how much pressure there is for your child to do well, especially with the high standards set by schools like The Grammar School at Leeds and Roundhay School.

Focused French Support, Tailored to Your Child's Goals
The right tutor does more than just teach; they build a connection. By getting to know your child’s learning style and specific goals, they can create a supportive space where it’s okay to ask questions. We help you find that perfect match from our expert tutors—we only accept 1 in 8 who apply, and all are background-checked, so you know your child is in safe hands.
Every one-to-one lesson is planned around your child. If they’re finding verb conjugations difficult or need to practise their conversational skills for an oral exam, their tutor will focus right there. This targeted approach is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade with us. For GCSEs, that can mean an improvement of up to two grades, making a real difference to their future options.
Finding the right support shouldn't add to your busy schedule. With online tutoring, there’s no travel involved. Your child can learn from the comfort of home, at a time that fits around your family's life. It’s a simple, flexible way to give them the support they need, right when they need it.

David J
Experienced French Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

George G
Excellent French tutor
Personal Statement: I am a person highly driven to provide all pupils the chance to excel in Mathematics. I have strong, extensive subject knowledge, which I have built through my postgraduate studies. My strength lies within assessment - giving constructive and positive feedback, which helps students to learn independently. I plan activities based on individual needs and always strive to improve metacognition. The objective is to become a facilitator for students so that they naturally apply personal, learning and thinking skills to all problems, in all subjects. Alongside more traditional activities,...

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...

Really excellent tutoring, centred well around areas of learning that I needed to work on and received some great feedback as to how to improve. My marks for an area I really wanted to work on, French speaking, have greatly improved thanks to this teaching and I have greater baseline confidence in all areas of the course.

My son who is in year 8 was really struggling with French so I set about finding a kind, calm and effective tutor to bolster his confidence and to enjoy learning a language.
