Enthusiastic (and patient) tutor of French Tutor for all levels
Hi I have always loved French and have a natural flair and feel for it, so, naturally, I went on to study it atUniversity. My particular course gave me the opportunity to work in both France and Switzerland so I got to experience how people really work and live in both these places.I also travelled widely during my placements to experience the culture and understand the identity of the locals. My family and I have now returned to the UKafter more than 12 years of living and working in Paris. In fact, both my children were born in Paris.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for Peter Symonds College. Can a tutor help with the specific demands of the French GCSE?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are examiners or have extensive experience helping students secure places at competitive sixth forms. They can focus specifically on the exam board your child's school uses, working on exam technique and topic areas to help them achieve the grades needed for a strong application.

We're thinking about the University of Southampton in the future. Can tutoring now really help with that?

Yes, it can. Building a strong academic foundation at GCSE is the first step towards a successful university application. A great grade in French keeps the option for A-Level open, which in turn strengthens their UCAS application, especially for top Russell Group universities like the University of Southampton.

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

You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications on their profile. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and make sure you've found the perfect match for their personality and learning style.

What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, which is 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 a French tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own prices, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of demand. You can easily filter your search to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our UK-based tutors has passed an enhanced DBS check, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How can online tutoring build my child's confidence in speaking French?

The one-to-one online environment is a safe, supportive space for your child to practise speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a class. This repeated, positive practice with a friendly expert is one of the best ways to build real confidence.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

You can message your child's tutor at any time to ask for an update. Tutors regularly provide feedback on areas of improvement and next steps. Most importantly, you'll see your child's confidence and enthusiasm for French grow week by week.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something different like coding or playing the guitar?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have experts for core academic subjects from the 11+ to degree level, you can also find brilliant tutors for hobbies and professional skills, including coding, music, and new languages.

My child's schedule is already packed. How flexible is online tutoring?

Very flexible. Because the lessons are online, you don't lose any time travelling. You can arrange sessions for evenings, weekends, or even during school holidays at times that fit perfectly around your family's other commitments.

What equipment do we need for online lessons?

It's simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom has all the tools they'll need, like an interactive whiteboard, built right in.

How can online tutoring build my child's confidence in speaking French?

Most sessions are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss your needs with your tutor and arrange a session length that works best for them.
