French tuition for beginners up to A level with experienced, patient and friendly tutor

From 26 £ /h

French tuition either on a 1-1, 1-2 or small group basis - can either follow a school or college curriculum or be completely student-led, working on difficulties or starting to learn the language from scratch, working towards exams or just to achieve personal goals. I use a wide range of materials, from books and websites to audio examples on YouTube, Instagram and other sites. Keeping the language up to date is key to learning so I always prioritise the spoken and written word, focusing on increasing skills and confidence in listening, speaking, reading and writing proficiently in French.

About Me

I'm a Mum of two teenagers so my teaching skills have come in very handy over the years! My patience is infinite and I understand how to relate to students of all ages and abilities through being kind, sensitive to their needs and responding to each individual with care. My love of French began quite late on as my experience at school wasn't very positive - luckily I had a fantastic French tutor who got me through the difficulties, leading to my developing a passion for the language and for all things French! I went on to study French at University, spend a year living in the south of France then I began honing my tuition skills and now I'm over 25 years in the job. Over the years I have learnt how to tailor my lessons to the requirements of each student and have achieved great success - in terms of student exam grades and with adult learners gaining skills and confidence - due to the time and attention I give to creating and delivering interesting, useful and informative lessons. I have strong IT skills and have over 3 years' experience of online teaching via Zoom, Skype and MS Teams.

Education

I attended the University of Reading in the UK which included a year spent attending the Université de Paul Valéry in Montpellier and achieved a 2:1 grade. Before that I completed 3 A levels and 10 GCE 'O' levels at secondary school including French and English (at both levels)

Experience / Qualifications

Apart from French tuition, I have additional experience in writing CVs, general administrative work, proofreading and copy-editing, researching and creating content for social media and managing training courses.

Hi, I am a student at Sussex University.
I come from France and love to teach people how to learn french and how to love it.
As I am a Master student, I can teach at any level and can be really flexible depending on your needs!
I have taught french before and enjoy it a lot.
I can teach you or your kids
Contact me for further information or simply to discuss about the different methods!

Good morning! I am Anita, French and Spanish teacher, native of Lyon, France.

I am passionate about teaching and my commitment is to build confidence and increase skills.

Lessons are structured and prepared according to your specific needs, interests or requirements. I also focus lessons on developing confidence and skills to improve your French.
I use topical content that includes a variety of media types, such as videos, recordings and articles.
I am preparing for level A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2 and for the Delf conversation.

I have been giving private lessons for 10 years now. I do have really positive feedback in other websites if you need it! I love teaching and I love people are happy learning with me and how I give lessons! My goals are my students and if they are learning and happy that is all what matters. Every student is different and needs to work in a different way. I always adapt myself! I do speak 5 languages! :D

My name is Lucy and I live in West Sussex. I am fascinated by languages and communication and I have gained a wealth of experience in teaching and learning French, Spanish and English.

In 2013 I achieved my Level 5 Trinity College London Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). I have have 8 years of classroom and private tutoring experience. My expertise is grammar: I am very skilled in this area having spent a lot of time studying. I have also gained plenty of experience in helping students with their speaking and listening skills. I am qualified to teach adults and teenagers, and have also gained experience in providing foreign primary school children with an introduction to the English language.

In 2017 I graduated with a 2:1 in French and Hispanic studies. In my third year at University I studied and worked abroad in Paris and Madrid. In Paris I was the English teacher of a small private school and I was in charge of designing the curriculum, teaching all the lessons, and creating an end of term assessment. In Madrid I was self employed and privately tutored several students with lessons tailored to their requirements. For example, one student wanted to improve conversation skills for her job as she was required to communicate with clients in the UK, so we focused on business conversation skills in English.

In June 2020 I will qualify as a Secondary Teacher of French and Spanish, teaching up to A level (Key Stage 5). I am currently on a SCITT PGCE course (School Centred Initial Teacher Training) which means I have been in the classroom since September gaining plenty of experience teaching the languages. Before beginning my ITT (Initial Teacher Training) year, I completed a 6 month Subject Knowledge Enhancer which involved studying the different modules of the GCSE and A level syllabuses and preparing a presentation on teaching each module to a class. This course has helped me understand exactly what is expected of the students during Key Stages 4 and 5 and I received excellent feedback on my achievements.

If you are studying French, Spanish or English, I can help you to succeed! We will tailor my class and lessons to your individual needs. Whether you want to build confidence in speaking and communicating, or need some extra help with grammar/ written work, I can help.
Please contact me for more information.

I like to ask the students what they would like to learn from my lessons. What are their goals. I think it's really important to be on the same page, so we can work in the same direction together and it makes things easier. I can adapt easily to different kind of teachings. People are different and they don't always have the same way to learn. I can start from the basics (learning how to pronounce the letters right, feminine and masculine of words, grammar, verbs, etc.) I can only teach oral lessons if is what the person wants. I like working with a lot of examples and visuals.

Bonjour à tous!

Want to converse with the locals in an idyllic French bakery on that weekend getaway in Paris or Nice? Want to wow the locals with your correct pronunciation of Bonne soirée? Now is the time to begin learning those essential phrases for your trip to make your experience that bit more memorable!

This will include:

And much more!

Feel free to contact me to begin exploring this beautiful language.
