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...

Experienced French and German tutor French
A former qualified solicitor, my more recent work has been in languages and education.The basis for this was my original French and German Honours degree from Oxford University and later the Diploma inGerman from the Institute of Linguists (now Chartered Institute of Linguists) and the City and Guilds Certificate in Further and Adult Education.

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...

’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.

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.

Brilliant French tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child is hoping to apply to Cardinal Newman College. Can a tutor help them meet the French entry requirements?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the specific requirements for competitive colleges. They can focus on strengthening the exact areas of the French curriculum your child needs to secure a strong GCSE grade and a confident application.
We're aiming for a top university like Lancaster or Manchester. How can tutoring strengthen my child's application?
A great French A-Level, built on a solid GCSE foundation, is highly valued by top universities. A tutor can help your child develop a deeper understanding of the language and culture, which not only improves grades but also helps them write a compelling personal statement that stands out.
How do I choose the right French tutor for my child?
It’s really simple. You can use our filters to find tutors with experience in the specific area your child needs help with, like GCSE or A-Level French. You can watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and even message them for free to make sure they're the perfect fit before booking.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is for your child's learning. 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 does online French tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden fees or complicated contracts.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check before they can start teaching. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can a tutor help my child with their French speaking confidence?
This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. The online classroom provides a safe, private space for your child to practise speaking without the pressure of a full class. Tutors use conversation exercises to build fluency and correct pronunciation gently, which can make a huge difference in their confidence.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a document editor. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a microphone, a camera, and a stable internet connection.
Can a tutor help with specific parts of the French GCSE, like the writing exam?
Yes, definitely. Tutors can dedicate entire lessons to specific exam components. For the writing exam, they can work with your child on vocabulary, sentence structure, and mastering different tenses to help them write with more flair and accuracy, boosting their final grade.
How quickly will I see an improvement in my child's results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade. The biggest change many parents notice first is a boost in their child's confidence and a more positive attitude towards the subject, often after just a few sessions.
What makes Tutorful different from other platforms?
We focus on finding the perfect match for your child. With over 4,100 reviews and a 4.6-star rating, parents trust us to provide high-quality, vetted tutors who deliver personalised support. We're here to help your child, not just to pass an exam, but to truly understand and enjoy their learning.
How can a tutor help my child with their French speaking confidence?
