First of all, I am a passionate tutor d I enjoy passing my knowledge to others. I find it very rewarding when students tell me enthusiastically about their good results at exams.
Secondly, through my long medical studies and via my job as GP, I have become very patient and a good listener. This helps me to adapt to any student`s background.
Thirdly, being the mother of three teenagers has taught me how to deal with the variable commitments at this age.
I believe firmly that tutoring should be tailored to match each student needs.
Moreover, I take into account that tutoring sessions are extra works added to the student’s busy day at school or at the workplace. Consequently, I endeavour to make my lessons diverse and lively, to avoid students being bored or tired and at risk of giving up after the first sessions.
I make the session as interactive as possible to retain the student’s attention. The student reads the lesson and we point out together the main ideas. After that, he /she will write summary notes under my supervision. Then comes some sample exam questions. Finally, I end the session by a quiz about the topic that we have studied previously.However,when the exams are getting closer,we work on past papers .
As the holder of a Baccalaureate in Sciences and a Doctorate in Medicine, I am conversant in maths physics and chemistry up to GCSE / A level. In addition, Biology is amongst the basic topics in medical studies therefore, this subject is one of my strongest areas of expertise.
With regard to French, although I am not a French native, I am a fluent speaker as all my studies have been carried out in French, from primary school through to university. Consequently, I master French at all levels: from casual conversation to academic reports. Additionally, through my French husband and his family, I have acquired a strong familiarity with the French culture, history and customs.
I am conversant with the curriculum, through my involvement with my sons’ studies and previous tutoring. I am familiar with the different exam boards and their distinctions. I regularly check on the Internet for the latest updates on the syllabus according to each board.

I have been tutoring French for over twenty years. I tutor to all levels: primary, secondary, GCSE, 'A'-level, as well as individual adults and families. I like to get to know my students and their families personally. I recognise that all students are different in terms of character and ability, and I like to think that I tailor my teaching to the needs of each individual. For GCSE and 'A'-level students, I am familiar with all current examination board syllabuses. For adults, I can help improve your speaking and understanding of the language, and am happy to supply recent references. My hobbies include playing table-tennis in a local league, gardening and general reading, For the majority of my early working life ,I worked as a representative for the Publishing Department of a Trade Organisation, which involved technical translation work and liaising with our offices in Brussels, Paris and Geneva. .I have always loved the French language, and I am currently working towards the diploma in translation.

I taught English as a second language at a French University for 10 years, have been teaching to kids and adults online for 11 years. I had a school where I taught English to 3-16 year olds in small groups during term time and I also organised holiday workshops based on trips to English speaking countries. I also did this for 10 years. I've taught in many companies such as CERN in Geneva, STAUBLI, PREVOST and Pfeiffer in France, McDonalds and local MPs in Reunion Island....I lived in France for 34 years so have recently started teaching French to English students. I always adapt to my pupil's needs, when working in groups, suggestopedia is my preffered way of teaching. I'm available on Skype, WhatsApp and Teams. I always do my best to make learning fun!

A native French speaker who is a language lover, I have studied about 7 languages in my life, hence the homework help I can give in Spanish, Italian and German. I've learnt modern Greek, Latin and Albanian too. Now learning Japanese. I have experience with diplomats and corporate people from the City and with children and adults with special needs, Asperger's and learning difficulties. I did my teacher training in 2001-2002 after 2.5 years of being a French assistant in East London schools. I starting tutoring in 1999 as I was working in school as a French assistant and have never stopped since.
I am an empathic and patient tutor who uses intuition in my teaching. I don't have the same method for everyone as my students are all different.
I also offer coaching for clients who needs life advice, especially life changes.

Born and bred in Paris, France, I came to the UK 25+ years ago to work as an animator and graphic designer. I am hence fluent in English and, beside art, I have always been interested in foreign languages: English, Spanish, German... In fact, languages were among my choices of career when I was at school. I started my career in animation with an internship in a studio in Barcelona, where I could also polish my skills in Spanish. Being particularly enamoured with English, I did all I could to learn it from an early age: reading books, listening to songs, watching films in English... Coming to the UK to live and work was a dream come true.
I worked as an animator in the videogame industry first, then for TV and film. I am also an author and illustrator, with a comic book (involving cartoon animals and motorbikes, among other things...) and a bilingual (French-English) children's book published so far. I also got into designing graphics for t-shirts and the gift industry.
Working on my bilingual children's book, which I wrote, translated from French to English and illustrated, not only made me realise the same story will never be articulated in the same way from one language to another but, led me to think about teaching my own language to others.
So here I am: while I don't hide the enthusiasm and sheer joy I feel in the process of transmitting my knowledge to my tutees, I am also a friendly, patient tutor with a calm and gentle demeanour, always making sure that the words, phrases, and grammar are understood correctly.
I teach children, teenagers, adults, seniors... and will adapt my teaching style to each person's ability, goals and interests. I can teach in person and online on Skype, Zoom, Messenger or anything else that I may not be aware of but that you use yourself.
So feel free to get in touch if you need lessons, I will be delighted to hear from you and, looking forward to working with you in expanding your knowledge of a beautiful language.

Hey there! I'm Luca, a trilingual law student. On top of always speaking English and Italian at home, I have always studied both in English and French, which makes me perfectly Trilingual. I currently hold an IB Diploma with a perfect score in HL French. I am familiar with both A-levels and the Baccalauréat. I have tutored quite a lot of students in the past few years, and they've all made quite a progress! I prefer to focus on practice rather than the traditional way, with a lot of exercises focused on giving you a better understanding of the language and its correct use (e.g. how to structure a sentence).

I enjoy teaching German and French and am based in Clapham in South London. I teach ONLINE ONLY - it works very well for one-to-one lessons and avoids the problems inherent in getting to a venue! It also means you can take your lessons wherever you need to be.
I have a PGCE (Post-graduate teaching certificate in Education) in German and French. I have been tutoring for the last 7 years, with considerable successes among my GCSE students, who all improve by several grades, mostly to 8's and 9's.
I am bi-lingual in German and speak excellent French. I am happy to conduct lessons in French or German. Adult learners are very welcome.
We start with deciding on your goals, class frequency and time available for homework between classes. I offer a free, no obligation half hour conversation and assessment, so that I can suggest how we best proceed.
Do get in touch if you would like to fix an online video appointment.

NHS Doctor with over 10 years of experience studying and completing exams and over 7 years teaching Maths, Biology and Chemistry for KS3, GCSE and A Level. My tuition approach is listed below.
Each lesson begins with a run-through of the topic and explanation of key concepts with opportunities for pupils to ask questions. Students are then provided with high yield exam questions and worksheets to complete. Questions are then marked together to highlight areas of strength and areas of improvement. An emphasis is always maintained on exam technique during each lesson. Assessments to determine student improvement are provided every 4-6 weeks.
All students are taught how to study effectively using two evidence-based study techniques:
1) Active Recall - Here students create useful revision questions to test their memory of certain topics
2) Spaced Repetition - Here students are taught how to strategically review topics regularly and boost their chances of remembering important exam content throughout the year and leading up to exams.
My classes are always tailored with a personalised programme for each and every student and remain friendly and engaging. All resources including specialised notes for each exam board, revision questions and exam question related to the tutees exam board are provided free of charge. Tuition goes beyond the `hour slot` as students are able to contact me via phone, email and tutor hunt messaging. I also remain engaged with the lesson and do not `clock-watch`.
For 2023, I now have a team of dedicated tutors offering tailored approaches to tuition. Please get in touch if you have any questions or preference for female tutors as this can be organised too.
Thank you for all enquiries currently, we are organising classes as soon as possible.
Spring an Summer Booster Courses will be available upon request.

If you’re concerned about your child’s academic progress, then I’m confident that I can help you. Your concerns may be down to your children:
• missing lessons due to the Covid-19 pandemic;
• having difficulty with a particular aspect of a syllabus;
• needing to improve results and grades.
I've established a reputation as a friendly, informal teacher whose cheerful and patient style helps even the most nervous and shy students. This enables them to relax, enjoy the lessons and make steady progress.
I joined the Government's National Tutoring ("Catch-up") Programme in 2020.
In recent years I've also taught a number of students with (mild) Special Education Needs, including autism, dyslexia, dyscalculia and cerebral palsy.
I've previously held memberships of both the Institute of Statisticians and the Society of Editors, so am well versed in both Numeracy and Literacy.
NB Have had problems uploading DBS Certificate here, but it's valid and the Update System too. (Can show in person or on-screen.) Numerous testimonials via my website at www.weybridge-home-tutor.co.uk
