I am a multilinguist with considerable experience in teaching French and Spanish to a diverse range of students. I have a 100% success rate in terms of my students improving their academic grades. I am extremely passionate about my subject and committed to understanding and engaging with each new student's learning needs. I tailor my individual teaching programmes to ensure each student is able to develop and move confidently towards their goal, whether it be academic or personal. I choose to work with students who are committed to working towards their goal - they don't have to love the subject to begin with, they just have to want to improve, the love comes later, often when they discover how simple it can be and they start to see improvements in their ability and understanding! Among my previous students are Yas, a Spanish GCSE student who went from a predicted D to receiving an A* overall in 14 months, Roderick, who with no prior teaching since his French GCSE 16 months before we began, received an A* at French A Level after 7 months of home-schooling with me and Kendall, a French IB student who went from grade 3/4 to achieving a final grade 6/7 in 20 months - she called me up in Guatemala on results day so I knew it must be good news! Testimonials: "James tutored both my daughters for GCSE Spanish and they both received A*. This was particularly impressive with my eldest daughter who was on a Grade D at the end of Year 10. James accelerated Yasmin's learning rapidly over 6 months in Year 11, and changed her attitude towards Spanish from a boring difficult subject to her favourite! Aside from his in-depth understanding of the curriculum and effective teaching techniques, James is a lovely person with a great sense of humour, and the girls really enjoyed his company. We'd highly recommend James to anyone wanting to improve their grades and language skills." Zaya F - Spanish GCSE "James was simply brilliant in giving my son confidence in his ability to learn languages, which ultimately led to GCSE success. He possesses a magical ability to build self-esteem. Invaluable. Fabulous. Very highly recommended." Donna G – French & Spanish IGCSE "James tutored me in French for just over a year for the international baccalaureate. Marked out of 7, I originally achieved 3-4s in all my examinations. James helped with reading, writing and oral presentations. He helped me to increase my confidence in speaking and also taught me invaluable techniques for verb conjugations. In the end I was able to achieve a 6/7 in my final IB results. Thank you James !" Kendall U - French International Baccalaureate "James was instrumental in getting my son to an A* for his Spanish A Level this year. Over a period of 8 months James worked to improve Omar’s original predicted grade of B, focussing on some core grammar which had been missed by the school and developing his reading, writing and oral skills. James often made himself available at short notice to review and offer feedback on Omar’s practice essays for the literature part of the course. We are delighted with the result and with the high level of professional service that James provides. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend." Mehta F - Spanish A Level “My daughter Chloe was struggling with Spanish during year 11, she failed her mock and was really worried. We found James and he worked steadily with her for the three months leading up to her GCSE. I’m delighted to say she achieved a 6(B)!! Incredible...a fail to a B in only 25 hours tutoring! Thank you James, she couldn’t have done it without you!” Beth W – Spanish GCSE James tutored my daughter for just over a year at French Pre-U. Our aim was to secure a comfortable distinction. James knew the syllabus inside out and ensured no stone had been left unturned in her knowledge and exam technique. We were delighted but not too surprised when the final result came back a D1. We’re thrilled with James, his approach and the care he brings to each session. Such a star. Mikael J – Cambridge Pre U French "James is an amazing teacher. He got my daughter to a B in French GCSE from a predicted D, and my son to a B in Spanish GCSE from a predicted E. This helped my daughter to get to UCL and put the Russell Group within my son's reach. His teaching style is unique. Within minutes of arrival, he had won the respect of both my teenagers. He made himself available at weekends and in the evenings both in person and over Skype. I am so grateful for his help. I highly recommend him." Rachel G - French & Spanish GCSE "James is an outstanding teacher - he taught my son to find his own motivation & the confidence he needed to excel in Spanish. He brings the language to life and creates a self sufficiency in study habits that was wonderful to observe - the GCSE process was made palatable and non daunting ! I would wholly recommend him to anyone looking for a tutor that cares about the child in the most holistic sense and leaves them with the skills to tackle languages independently post their time with him - he was an absolute star !" Shaleen Y - Spanish IGCSE "James is one of the best tutors I have ever met. He is clearly passionate about teaching and has such an engaging and enthusiastic manner. Anyone who is lucky enough to come across James has found a true gem. I cannot recommend him highly enough." Helen S - Spanish GCSE

Hi! I'm a French native speaker with a master's degree in English Studies, fully TEFL and TOEFL qualified. I've had more than 10 years of experience teaching French and English to all ages, including several years working at Chinese Universities. I am a patient, understanding, and dedicated teacher who loves to share his passion and find the best ways to help students achieve their goals. If you are in a hurry, here are some reasons why I could be the right teacher for you: 1. What if English is not enough? Many English native speakers can only speak English. And they cannot always communicate exactly what they are trying to teach. I speak English, French, Spanish and I have basic notions of Chinese. I will surely find a way to express my meaning more clearly if English is not enough. And I can also teach you French and Spanish. I have experience teaching oral French (high school and university) and my Spanish level is Intermediate. 2. What if you can’t understand me? People think that the most important quality for a teacher is knowledge. But I believe that it is ‘sharing knowledge’. Good teachers know how to communicate differently according to their students’ personalities and language levels. I have worked with children, teenagers, university students, and adults. I am quite flexible in my methods. 3. What if I you are afraid of making a mistake? I have helped hundreds of students over the years. I gained their trust by being friendly, patient and approachable. I will encourage you and provide the right feedback to make sure you are pushed forward and rewarded by your efforts. 4. What if you are bored? As memory is connected to our emotions, we progress much faster when we take pleasure in learning something! So, we will work together to find the topic that is right for you. The same way, teachers should only teach what they are passionate about. I could teach you Maths, but we would both hate the experience :) So, I will teach you English. Besides, with living half my life outside my own country, how can I not be passionate about foreign languages? 5. What if you want to give up? Learning a foreign language takes a lot of time and practice. The most important is to find the right support and not give up. English is not my native tongue, so I can better understand the problems you might face and help you accordingly. Hope to teach you soon :) Please note that I am currently ONLY giving online lessons. Now, here's a little more about myself I am a French native speaker, with an MA in English studies, and fully qualified with TOEFL and TEFL (Level 5, 168hrs) certifications. I have provided excellent customer service for renowned international companies, such as Apple and The Eiffel Tower. More importantly, I’ve spent the last nine years teaching English and French in Chinese universities and private schools. My students really enjoyed my class and I was often asked to take part in extra-curricular activities: I judged debates in English, hosted movie nights, and I even had to stand - in front of a thousand people! - to read a speech. I specialize in oral communication for teenagers and adults who understand basic English, but who are not satisfied with their speaking ability (lack of confidence, people can’t understand you properly…). I also have experience in working with children (primary schools and private tutoring) and I will adapt my content according to your needs as best as I can. Following your requirements, I will prepare a class on a topic we choose together – I love talking about anything, in particular movies, foreign cultures, and Art. We will focus on what you want to learn (speaking, reading, listening, grammar, vocabulary, exams…). My method is to create a relaxed and trusting atmosphere, where you should enjoy yourself and not be afraid of failure. I will prepare presentations, share videos and audio, focus on real-life situations, and whenever possible I will stimulate you with some brainstorming to boost your conversation skills. My goal is to accompany you in your study of English to make you more confident and independent. And for me, it's always a pleasure to see my students improve so much after only a few lessons! Thank you for reading all the way:)

I am a native French speaker so I am able to help people master the accent, expressions and the subtilties of French. I worked in a language school in Nicaragua for a year. I taught group and individual lessons of French and English. Throughout that same year I received extensive Spanish lessons and got daily exposure to the language and I’m now able to converse fluently. I am approchable and patient.

Hi everyone, I give lessons in Maths and Computing in English and French languages, online and in person. I am finishing a PhD degree in Computing Sciences from the University of East Anglia in Norwich. I also have a degree in physics from a French university. I have 4 years of experience in tutoring. I gave private home lessons to high school students preparing for the A-level. Then I was tutoring at the Student Support Centre of the UEA and I was a teaching assistant at the Computing Sciences School. I adapt my lessons to your level and needs. I always start with a summary of the school lesson followed by excercises that remind the lesson key points. My goal is that you understand the lesson and that you are able to solve basic and more complex exercises easily and succeed in your exams with confidence. I use the best ressources to create my lessons in a way they fit the official school programme. If you’re interested, do not hesitate to contact me and ask questions if you have. I look forward to hearing from you :-) Ghalia

Hello, this is Sem! I am an LLB Graduate from Queen Mary University of London and I have finished my LLM in Energy and Natural Resources Law at Queen Mary University of London. I am working in a law firm which specialises in Energy & Technology Law and doing online tutoring at the same time. I have taught more than 50 students in the past three years, prepared them for exams, helped them with courseworks and enhanced their knowledge. I also taught children, assisted them for learning a new language (both French and Turkish). Thus, I am native in Turkish, fluent in French and English, intermediate in Spanish. I am a very organised, disciplined and patient person. Moreover, I went to a French School from the age of 3 until 8, which is called Lycée Français Pierre Loti d'Istanbul, and I got my French Baccalaureate with Mention Tres Bien (16.2/20). All in all, my main goal is to help, motivate and support students to achieve their best. The most effective way to do this is by making sure that students understand each topic and do not hesitate to ask any questions. Thus, at the end of each session I am summarising what has been covered during the lesson. During the lessons, I am including real-life examples and stories that I have encountered in order to help the student remember and better understand.

I am a graduate of MML (French and Spanish) from The University of Cambridge with a master's in Modern Languages from the University of Oxford. I studied at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris on my year abroad as an undergraduate student and I am greatly fascinated by every aspect of languages. I have been studying French for over fourteen years and Spanish for more than seven years. I have benefited greatly from the world-class education I have received at Cambridge, the ENS and Oxford. I have been tutoring for over two years for a number of different organisations. I have taught over 1000 hours of private 1-1 lessons, receiving over 70 five-star reviews. I have taught students of various ages and abilities. I have taught KS3 (French and Spanish), GCSE (French and Spanish), Edexcel iGCSE (French and Spanish) Cambridge iGCSE (French and Spanish), A level (French and Spanish), University level (French). I have helped to prepare students for scholarship exams at Winchester College and Eton College. I have also taught French to a student, who was preparing to start his studies at Harrow School. I have helped a student at The London School of Economics prepare for a French oral exam and I have helped a student reading Comparative Literature at University College London. I have helped a number of students prepare for MML interviews at Oxford (French) and Cambridge (French and Spanish). I have taught adults also, including a Cambridge architecture graduate who was looking to improve his French for a project in Switzerland and a Cambridge law graduate, who was preparing for an internship in Brussels. I have taught French to adults for professional purposes also, such as teaching French to a student working in the field of international renewable energy. I have mostly taught 1:1 lessons but I was invited to teach some group courses by Tutorful and so I have experience teaching groups also. Above all, I am here to help the student. Therefore, I will always look to ask students what they hope to gain from my sessions. This will help me to identify areas to target and also encourage my students to be self-reflective. Constant evaluation is an important part of the learning process. I will be very happy to set and mark homework. I can suggest various ways that students can develop their language skills between lessons. This is critical because language-learning does require personal diligence and is a long yet very enjoyable process. I will look to remind students of things we have covered in previous sessions so that we can both follow their progression and so that they can better retain what they have learnt. I have excellent resources that I use to teach my students. I have adopted a meticulous approach to language study as I have sought to improve in all areas. It is very important not to neglect any area when studying a foreign language! Grammar forms the bedrock of effective communication, as does having a good vocabulary. Learning to express oneself naturally in a foreign language and avoiding anglicisms is always extremely important. I will encourage my students to work on their pronunciation so that they can express themselves more naturally in the language. I am very interested in languages and I am currently learning German and Italian. I also really like sport. I grew up playing competitive football and I play tennis. I really enjoy travelling and I have an long-standing interest in the natural world. I have an enhanced DBS check certificate.

From 2018-2022 I studied French and Spanish at Queen's University Belfast and I have recently graduated with first class honours. My degree consisted mainly of grammar, translation and literature and in 2020 I moved to Madrid to teach English in a primary school. I want to help students who are studying modern languages because I understand how difficult they can be, particularly the exams. I am passionate about foreign language learning, travel and culture and I love sharing my passion with others. I have one year of experience teaching English as a foreign language and I am currently working in a private school in Colombia, working with children who are just three years old, as well as students who are seventeen years old. I am also working with the English teachers to help them improve their level. In my spare time I work in a language centre giving classes to adult students who are hoping to improve their level of English. In terms of individual lessons, I like to tailor my classes to a student's individuals needs. For example, if a student is struggling with a particular grammar topic I prepare a lesson to address this particularly difficult topic, to include PowerPoints and follow up activities to reinforce learning. I am currently enjoying my time in Colombia and travelling has allowed me to learn more about the differences between particular Spanish dialects as well as the different cultures in the Spanish speaking world.
