Cody C
Enthusiastic French tutor
Bonjour!I’m Cody, a passionate and dedicated French tutor with years of teaching experience. My teaching style is student-centred, focusing on the needs of the student instead of just teaching everyone in the same way. I use interactive and immersive methods to try and make learning French enjoyable and effective. For example, we might do role plays where you have to order from a french bakery or pretend you’re on a date with a handsome french man. I studied French in high school (8) and sixth form (A). This gives me a strong understanding of the AQA (and alternative) exam boards if you’re study...

For over 8 years, I have worked with, and currently work with students of a wide range of ages, levels, and abilities, to achieve their goals.

Mara F
Mara is an excellent tutor and is helping me to gain confidence in my study and understanding of French. She listened carefully to my aims when we first met, and tailors our lessons accordingly; as such, my confidence has improved and I am feeling better prepared to attend an intensive course in France than when I was studying alone. Her lessons have a clear structure, so I always know what to expect.
Mara is always prepared, has goals for each lesson and provides constructive feedback in a positive way. She is responsive to messages and sends additional materials to support my studies. I really appreciate Mara's kind manner, especially when I am feeling frustrated with the mistakes I am making. I'm thoroughly enjoying our lessons and would recommend Mara as a tutor without hesitation.
