Hello, I am a bi-lingual speaker of French and English. I was brought up in the South of France; I then returned to England to pursue my higher education over here. I have a passion and an affinity for modern foreign languages. I take a very methodical and reasoned approach to problem-solving which is reflective of my general teaching style. I have a love for linguistics and use my interest in literacy/etymology to create memorisation techniques to help students remember vocabulary; my lessons are engaging, stimulating and fun. I hold a master's degree in Translation and Interpreting studies from the University of Manchester (with merit) and I also possess a first-class degree in Modern Foreign Language Studies with a focus on linguistics. I completed my PGCE (with distinction) and I am currently working as a full-time teacher of languages in a high school. I am currently putting together a research proposal for a PhD in Education which I hope to undertake in the near future. I am an experienced French tutor having taught students from KS3 to adult learners. I aim to equip all students with the necessary skills in order to be precise and concise so that they understand and use information so as to reach their full potential, especially under the pressure of exam conditions. I encourage students to develop skills to pass their exams and, ultimately, to enjoy language learning. I am available to tutor all ages up to undergraduate level in French. Lessons will focus on improving and perfecting listening, reading, writing, grammar and oral skills. I can also offer sessions for adults who would like to improve their general French. I am very flexible and will endeavour to accommodate all your needs. Please don't hesitate to send me a message if you are interested or would like to find out more!
