About Me

Tutoring is not just guiding students through their learning but also giving them confidence and enabling them to experience lessons in a relaxed, friendly and yet result-oriented way.
That is why I tailor my lessons to the students` needs and pace (one-to-one or small group tutoring on request), in order to teach French language effectively as well as to raise awareness to the French culture.
My approach is action-oriented, based on the ability of students to communicate (speaking ; listening ; reading ; writing) in authentic situations, according to the Common European Framework of references for Languages (CEFR).

I specialise in GCSE, A-Level and non-certificate learning (i.e those who wish to learn for fun). My class focuses on both oral and written aspects of the language and seeks to make language learning fun and memorable. Language learning requires repetition and so I will test content in different ways to ensure it is internalised.

◊ About me
My name is Matthieu and I come from Normandy, France.

First, I am a language learner. I have studied many languages since I am seven years old: Dutch, English, Spanish, Latin, Japanese, Chinese, Swedish... So I know what it is to discover and to learn a new language.

I am also an enthusiastic language teacher. I graduated in teaching French as a foreign language. I taught French in Japan, as a private tutor for one year, and as a teaching assistant for six months.

My knowledge and experience are at your service!
