V
French Tutor, Teacher, Instructor
As a seasoned teacher of Modern Foreign and Classical Languages with over 30 years of experience, I've had the privilege of teaching in local state and independent schools, as well as adult and further education colleges. My expertise spans French, German, Spanish, Italian, Classics, and Latin, from Key Stage 3 to A-Level. As a GCSE examiner for Pearson Edexcel, I'm well-versed in what it takes to succeed in exams.
In my lessons, I prioritize fun, humour, and encouragement, helping you build confidence in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. I also emphasize the importance of grammar as the foundation of language learning. For Latin, I combine rigorous grammar study with engaging explorations of historical context and set texts.
I understand that every learner is unique, so we work together to tailor our approach to your specific needs and goals. With my experience as an examiner, I'll show you how to unlock the secrets of exam papers and exceed your targets.
My teaching style is built on friendliness, patience, and approachability. I believe in celebrating small victories and fostering a growth mindset. If you're looking for a supportive and rewarding learning experience, I'm excited to meet you and help you achieve your goals!

Producing your answers in French can be daunting, especially when doing so under exam conditions. I am here to help. Together, we will practise your answers, make sure they are the best they can be and work on your fluency, pronunciation and interaction with the examiner. We will make sure you understand how to use tenses and how to get these extra marks in your writing paper.

My own genuine passion for learning languages and exploring intercultural dialogue motivated me to become a teacher so I could share my passion and experiences with my students.
I am a very enthusiastic person and like to put all my energy into what I do, making my lessons fun and enjoyable for all students. At the same time, I am passionate about grammar and love teaching in a way my students can deduct the rules from the context of the language we discuss in lesson, but also become interested in practising grammar on their own.
A characteristic of my teaching is to be able to plan very efficient lessons where a skill or linguistic content is presented, developed and practised through a progressive and scaffolded structure that supports all learners. I encourage students to have a personalised approach to their learning and I am always available to help them find their own way of studying and provide tips for remaining motivated in their learning.
During my undergraduate study of Arabic, I spent almost two years in Paris. Upon completing my masters in Arabic, I decided to consolidate my knowledge of French sitting all the language and literature exams of the Bachelor Degree as a private student. I then continued my professional development by obtaining the DALF Certificate, level C1 of the CEFRL (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages).
My PGCE course at the University of Southampton was focussed on teaching French, Italian and German.
My native language is Italian and I hold a qualification for teaching Italian to foreigners (CEDILS). I am also fluent in French, thanks to my studies abroad and relative qualifications (see above).
I am currently teaching French and Italian in a secondary school in Southampton and teaching adults at Language Class, as well as privately.
Please get in touch if you are interested to learn in a professional, efficient and active way.
