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...

Parlez-vous francais? French at all levels, and fun!

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to apply to Durham or Newcastle. Can a tutor help with this?

Absolutely. A strong set of GCSEs is crucial for a competitive UCAS application. A French tutor can help your child secure a top grade, strengthening their academic profile and showing universities they are a dedicated and well-rounded candidate.

We live in a rural part of Northumberland. How does online tutoring work for us?

Online tutoring is a perfect solution. It gives your child access to the best French tutors from across the UK, without you having to worry about travel. All you need is a laptop or tablet and an internet connection for a live, one-to-one lesson in your own home.

How do I choose the right French tutor for my child?

You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their experience. You can also send a message to a tutor before you book to discuss your child's needs and make sure it's a good fit.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have 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.

How much do French tutors cost in Northumberland?

Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary based on their experience. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has been interviewed and has had their ID and background checked, including an enhanced DBS check.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in French?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Tutors can break down difficult topics and give constant, positive encouragement, which makes a huge difference.

How do the online lessons actually work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes and working through problems together, and a way to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way to learn.

How quickly will my child see an improvement?

Every child learns at their own pace, but many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. This often leads to better results in class, with 90% of our students improving by at least one grade.

Do you only offer academic subjects like French?

Not at all! While we cover all academic subjects from Primary up to degree level, we also have talented tutors who can teach practical skills and hobbies, from learning the guitar or piano to coding in Python.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most lessons are one hour long, as this is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor to find what works best for your child.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in French?

Once you've found a tutor you like, you can book a first lesson directly from their profile. You'll enter your payment details securely and can then chat with your tutor to arrange the best time to get started.
