Elisabeth I
French Learning Made Fun
I hold a BA Honours Degree in German and French with Spanish as an extra subject, and I also hold a teaching certificate from Germany. Besides, I am a German native speaker and have lived and worked in France, which means that I can provide students with intricacies that you normally only acquire when you live in the foreign country. Teaching languages is my passion as I believe it opens a whole new world for the student, and I feel that I relate well to learners of all ages. I have over 25 years of experience tutoring on a one-to-one basis as well as groups, and in the past, I also taught evening...

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...

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 ...

Polly is amazing! My daughter is doing Alevel French and was really struggling with confidence when speaking. She’s had 3 lessons with Polly and it’s already made such a difference. I would highly recommend. 🥰

Sandrine C
’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.

Lauren S
Lauren is a very diligent and attentive tutor. She makes sure you are comfortable and is always letting you know that she is able to help. She always tailors the lesson to your specific needs and is able to pivot or reteach certain subjects. She has been a great tutor and I definitely recommend her to anyone :)

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 hopes to study A-Levels at Middlesbrough College. Can a tutor help them secure the right French GCSE grade?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students prepare for their GCSEs. They can focus on specific exam board requirements, improve exam technique, and build confidence in areas your child finds tricky, helping them secure the grade needed for their A-Level choices.
We're aiming for a top university like Durham or Newcastle. How can French tutoring strengthen my child's application?
A strong grade in a modern foreign language demonstrates academic breadth and dedication, which is highly valued by Russell Group universities. A tutor can help your child achieve a top grade in French, strengthening their overall academic profile and making their UCAS application more competitive.
How do I choose the right French tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking your first lesson to ensure you find the perfect match.
How much do online French tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. The price varies based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed, has their ID and qualifications checked, and undergoes a background check before they can teach on our platform.
What happens in a typical online French lesson?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space for sharing documents. A tutor might work through grammar exercises, practise conversational skills, or review past papers with your child, depending on their goals.
How quickly will my child see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade. The one-to-one focus allows tutors to target specific areas of weakness, which often helps students build confidence and see progress within just a few sessions.
What if we don't like the first tutor we try?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit for your child. With our 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.
Can tutoring help if my child has lost confidence in French?
Definitely. A private tutor provides a safe, encouraging environment where there are no wrong questions. This one-to-one support is fantastic for rebuilding confidence away from the pressure of a busy classroom, which is often the key to unlocking their academic progress.
Do you only offer academic subjects like French?
While we have thousands of tutors for core academic subjects, we also offer support for a huge range of skills and hobbies. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get into coding, or develop their drawing skills, you can find a brilliant tutor for it here.
How flexible are the lesson times?
Very flexible. Because our tutors are based across the UK, you can find someone available for lessons in the evenings, at weekends, or even during school holidays. You can arrange times that fit perfectly around your family's schedule.
How quickly will my child see an improvement?
All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no need to download any special software.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
