French, German, and English lessons in Bracknell, UK.
I did my PGCE in German with French which involved the usual two teaching practices. I completed these in two comprehensive schools. Since gaining QTS in my first teaching job in 2005, I have taught German, French and Spanish in three secondary schools, all at Keystages 3, 4 and 5. I am currently employed teaching all three of these languages in an independent school.
I believe that, in the drive to raise pupil confidence in speaking and general communication, there has been a decline in rigorous grammar teaching. My feeling is that knowing the grammatical foundations of a language well, in the long run, provides a basis upon which to build and therefore facilitates more confident and accurate communication. I try to strike a balance between sound reinforcement of the fundamentals whilst nurturing curiosity in the learner to try things out, manipulating language across contexts. With German in particular I like to offer an insight into the culture of the country and my time living in Germany enables me to bring the language "out of the page". I really enjoy teaching and like to engage my pupils so that they feel comfortable to ask questions. I also inject a little humour into my delivery, which has enhanced my teaching and boosted relationships. Mine is a safe place for learners to develop.
French lessons in Guildford, UK.

Classics and modern languages degree Oxford + PGCS Oxford for MFL. 14 years experience as tutor.
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. Book now to see how you really CAN learn a language, and you might even ENJOY www.*** !
Hi my name is Josh, I am currently a University Student at Royal Holloway. I grew up in a small country called Andorra, where I learnt how to speak French and Spanish fluently. I can help with people who are beginners, GCSE students, A-level students, etc.
I am a recent graduate from Cambridge University in History and am currently completing a postgraduate degree in Intellectual History.
I am passionate about all forms of historical processes across space and time.
At undergraduate level I focused on eighteenth century British socioeconomics, nineteenth century British parliamentary politics; eleventh and twelfth century European history (including heresy and the Crusades); Enlightenment political thought; the early modern Ottoman and Safavid empires; nineteenth century Islamic political thought; and Tokugawa Japan. This wide-ranging portfolio means that I can provide a breadth of expertise to students at GCSE and A-level, but am also more than open to teaching many other historical contexts.
I have particular specialisms in historiography; intellectual history; and political thought, which I am happy to teach to any students looking for post-A-level tutoring.
As a native French speaker and additionally, having proficient reading ability in Latin, I am pleased to also provide Latin and French language lessons, either in addition to History lessons or independantly of them.
My techniques and teaching methodology:
- My tutoring style is first and foremost tailored to each individual student. I work closely with students to create customized study plans that help them achieve their academic goals. I use engaging and effective teaching methods to help students understand difficult concepts and develop the skills they need to succeed in History, French or Latin exams and beyond. I also use tools to monitor and track student progress, and provide regular feedback to students.
- Interactive teaching that supports independent thinking is a mode of teaching that I find particularly rewarding, as I aim to adapt my tutoring technique to suit the prior knowledge and learning needs of different students. This requires an accomodation of mixed abilities and knowledge levels through inclusive, question-led teaching practices based on the student's contributions.
My Qualifications:
- MA in Intellectual History, Jesus College, Oxford University (2023-2024)
- BA in History, Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge University (2020-2023)
- A-Levels: History (A*), French (A*), Latin (A*), Ancient Greek (A)
- GCSEs: 13 A*s
Teaches:
- History (GCSE, A-level, BA level)
- French (GCSE and A-level)
- Latin (GCSE)
Please let me know if you have any questions! I look forward to working with you. :)

I am patient and kind and have several years of experience working with teenagers whilst tutoring and working in learning support departments and language departments in secondary schools usually on a 1:1 basis.

I am a senior examiner, a moderator and a Lead Verifier. I have co-authored 5 text books and write regularly for Drama and Performance magazine.
I have been a tutor for a few years teaching both face to face and online. To me, the most important thing as a tutor is to really listen to your student and let them explain what they may find challenging about a subject. Each student is different and therefore their lessons should also be unique. My students appreciate my friendly approach to learning and it is important that the students are in the driving seat of their lessons. I regularly ask my students what they would like to focus on and I base my lessons around where they can make the most progress.
I think it is important to have a tutor that is actively learning more about their subject of choice and that is why I am unique as a tutor. I am currently studying English literature with French and Spanish at The Universoty of Sheffield and this degree encompasses my strenghts and also what I enjoy. I am open to tutoring any ability level and I really look forward to meeting you!
