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...

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...

Frankie has been a sensational tutor. Not only does he know the exam structures well and knows what needs to be taught, but is also incredibly adaptive and can help students focus on their weaknesses. Frankie is very flexible and overall has been a great help to me!

Sandrine C
We found Sandrine on Tutorful to help my daughter with her French GSCE speaking and listening exam. Sandrine has been excellent! She is always well-prepared for the lessons and has given my daughter so much advice and confidence. I can even go so far as to say that my daughter enjoys her sessions with Sandrine as she finds them so useful. The Tutorful platform is also extremely user-friendly. I can't recommend both Sandrine and Tutorful enough.

Catherine C
Catherine is an excellent teacher who has been very helpful in improving both my spoken and written French. I am a second year university student studying French and Catherine has been a great help in making my language even more advanced and fluent. She has assisted me in constructing a presentation for a French oral exam, which requires a high level of academic French. Alongside this we have spoken about a wide range of complex subjects, during which Catherine has corrected and explains any grammatical issues I might have. Lessons are enjoyable and comprehensive, would definitely recommend!
