Hi there! I'm Emily and I'm really looking forward to being your tutor.

I have been a teacher for more than 5 years and have experience in different schools teaching to all ages (from 7-18!). I have also been an Assistant Head of Year 9-10 which has helped me learn about children's needs, emotions and interests more so than you could ever imagine. I am a creative individual and I am always looking up, discussing and searching for great activity ideas that make learning something "dull" seem like a walk in the park.

I really do believe in Einstein's famous quote: "...if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid". I think learning a language is like this. We often assume that everyone learns in the same way, and then become frustrated as teacher or learner when it doesn't work. But learning a language is not the same for everyone. Some might want to and pick up speaking tasks easily, others might prefer the calm of re-reading their work silently. This is why I always tailor my lessons to fit the child, and not the other way around. We will spend time discussing your likes and dislikes and your learning styles so that I can adapt my lesson style around YOU. At the end of the day, I want you to feel confident and progress in the best possible way so that you feel proud about your achievements.

Everyone can learn a language, they just need to find the right teaching style that suits them.

As for me, well, I have first-hand experience of teaching in a classroom to children from aged 7-18. I have taught KS3 and KS4 French and Spanish as well as KS5 (A-Level) French. Therefore I have up-to-date knowledge of the AQA and Edexcel exam boards and have marked and moderated hundreds of exam papers. I am also going to be doing exam marking for Edexcel and AQA this spring / summer which will give even more comparison for exam scenarios.

I have always strived to be the best version of myself and have sought the best possible results in myself and my students as possible. I love a challenge and whether it's pushing myself to create an interesting lesson, or learning the next piano piece for an exam, I am sure that my determined nature will work wonders with our tutoring sessions.

I gained a Distinction in Modern Foreign Languages for my PGCE at the University of Bristol and have always scored highly in classroom observations. I gained the highest A-Level results in my school and this conscientiousness is a quality that has always pushed me to expect and want better in my life. I am not expecting every student to have this same motivation for language learning, but that's where I will help you get what they want out of your language learning journey.
