I am a native French speaker, originally from Toulouse, and I am currently a student at the University of Edinburgh. I love teaching and transmitting my language. I have given lessons to kids learning French for the first time, as well as University students wanting to keep practicing. I have also helped friends study for their University exams. I am very organised and reliable, and I prepare each of my lessons thoroughly. It is important for me that lessons take place in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. This way, lessons stay enjoyable and progression is faster. I tailor the content of my lessons to the needs and abilities of each student. I can focus my lessons on conversation, while introducing new vocabularies of expressions, if the student wants to improve its speaking. I can also offer more academic lessons, with exercises that focus more on grammar and written classes. As a French native speaker, students will acquire French vocabulary that they can use in real world, and become familiar with the subtleties of the French language. Between each lesson, I always recap the new vocabulary learnt and make notes on the mistakes made. I usually give videos to watch, texts to read or questions to think about so that they can be discussed during the next lesson. On demand I can also give written assessments to complete between lessons, and then correct them. I keep my lessons fun, interesting and enjoyable :) My lessons usually last 1 hour, but they can be longer or shorter on request.

I am a Linguistics and Spanish graduate from Newcastle University who is passionate about learning and teaching new languages. My love for languages first began whilst at school, where I studied French, German and Spanish. During this time, I had a preference for the more logical aspects of language learning, such as grammar and translation. This lead me to study Linguistics at university, where I analysed language in a scientific way, helping me to understand how languages are learned. Having sat A-level and GCSE exams for three languages in 2018, I know both the A-level and GCSE syllabi well. At A-level, I achieved an A* in Spanish, an A in French, a B in German, and an A in Maths. At GCSE, I achieved an A* in all three languages. In my free time, I love to travel and having lived in Madrid as part of my year abroad, I have a high command of the Spanish language. During this time, I worked in a translation agency, and therefore have a valuable background in professional translation. That said, I am also familiar with what examiners look for in A-level and GCSE exams, which can somewhat differ to what professional translators may look for. As well as Spanish, I also showed a strong flair for French while at school. I have been tutoring A-level French privately to a Year 13 student for the last year, which I found hugely rewarding and allowed me to rediscover my love for the language. I thoroughly enjoyed the tutoring experience and am looking forward to helping more students achieve their desired grades. I like to tailor my lessons to student needs and focus on areas where they feel they need the most practice, however if they prefer a more structured approach and prefer to be told what to do (as was the case for me when I was at school!), I am more than happy to adapt, and will ensure that all subject areas are covered.

Hi! Salut ! Ciao! I have many years of experience in mainstream (primary and secondary) and special schools and have been freelance tutoring for over eight years. I have developed an active, learner-centred approach (and possibly an unflappable demeanour?!!) My aim is to help to build brave and curious-minded learners who don't get in a tizz about tricky learning elements.... Much of my experience has been in a SEN environment so I am particularly happy working with students with unique learning styles. I have an Oxford degree in French and Italian and have worked in Italy and written a children's early learning French book. Thanks/Merci/Grazie!

Hi! I am Eleni, a passionate linguist expert. I have been teaching Modern Foreign Languages for more than 20 years. More specifically, I teach German, French, English (EFL), Italian and Greek in any language level. I can also teach Spanish to GCSE level and I speak some Japanese too. I am a qualified UK school teacher with QTS and PGCE and I am also a CIOL Member and a Chartered Linguist. What's more, I studied Law at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and I have the highest diplomas (C2) in all the languages I teach. I have lived and worked all around Europe and I am currently based in Thessaloniki. You can find out more about my education by checking out my profile. What is also important to know is that languages are my greatest passion and I've been studying them for all my life. I've been a teacher for more than 20 years and nothing gives me greater pleasure than to impart my knowledge to my students in a fun, interesting and engaging way that is always adapted to the personal needs of every student. I have also huge experience in exam preparation. I have prepared hundreds of students for their language exams and I can guarantee your success in your A-Level or GCSE exams and I should also mention that many of my students are now studying at some of the top Universities of the UK, Cambridge and Oxford just to mention two examples. I can also prepare you for international language exams in any language level proficiency (A1 - C2) for any of the official providers (e.g. Goethe Institute for German). When I do not teach I... teach voluntarily! :-) I organise classes for children that cannot afford it and I have also taught to an orphanage. I try to participate to as many voluntary actions as I can, especially for homeless people. I love nature, the countryside, animals, I try to cultivate my own tomatoes and I would love to learn horse riding. I urgently need some time and a tutor for the latter! Either you are a student or an adult, either you want to prepare yourself for exams or you would like to learn a language that will help you professionally or just for fun, I would love to meet you and start our language journey together. So, take the first step and reach out to me. I promise you, it will be the first step of many!

I am a UK qualified, DBS checked teacher with years of experience teaching GCSE and A-level classes in British secondary schools. I offer French and Spanish tuition from Redbridge, East London. I am experienced with all main exam boards: OCR, Edexcel, AQA. My first assessment of your needs will take into account your current expected grade (if known) and your exam board. In order to consolidate basis and build fluency, we will concentrate on key grammar and vocabulary as specified in the national curriculum. For GCSE students looking to secure entry into the Higher exam tier, it can be useful to reduce the scope of the vocabulary and drill key grammar points. Regardless of the topic you are currently studying, I will make you practice in the 4 language skills: reading, listening, writing and speaking. Each one of these accounts for 25% of the final grade. Focus on a specific skill can be done on your request or on my advice after initial assessment. Other key exam skills covered include: inference in reading, understanding the exam paper, producing an oral presentation, timing and strategies using past exam papers.

Why hire a French tutor in Leeds?

When it comes to language learning, private tuition is the best way to see results quickly. Not only are you able to progress at a pace perfectly suited to your individual needs, you have vastly increased opportunities to practice your spoken language - a fundamental if you're hoping to reach fluency.

How much is a French tutor in Leeds?

Here at Tutor House we are aware that students have varying needs and budgets, so you will find a range of different tutor rates on our website, starting at £20/per hour.

Why Tutor House French tutors?

Our French tutors pride themselves on not only their expertise in the language, but also the patience and empathy central to their approach. All our tutors are DBS checked and thoroughly vetted, so you can be sure you're learning from the best! Plus, our tutors are well-versed in the art of virtual teaching so whether you're learning online or in-person, your tuition experience will be no different.

How do you say "how are you?" in French?

"How are you?" in French is "comment ça va?" or simply "ça va?"

Start perfecting your French in Leeds

Learning French can be challenging. Once you've got your head around the idiosyncrasies of pronunciation, there's the grammar, which includes such unpredictable treats as word gender, the subjunctive and verbs of motion. Internalising these rules to the extent that you're able to smoothly reproduce them in conversation with minimal conscious thought is no mean feat. It takes hard work as dedication.

 

Fortunately, Tutor House's French tutors (available from the comfort of your home in Leeds) are on hand to make the journey to fluency that bit easier. Whether you're studying French in a formal capacity alongside your private tuition, or just learning for yourself, our tutors can help. They will adapt their approach to your individual needs and learning preferences. When you're learning a language by yourself, it's often very difficult to know where to start. Your French tutor will solve this problem by providing a solid learning structure and guiding you through the most challenging areas.

 

One of the most intimidating things about learning a language is speaking. This is where private tuition really comes into its own. A French tutor will offer you a safe and supportive space in which to challenge yourself and ensure that the sophistication of your oral skills is steadily mounting. If you have an oral exam approaching, whether GCSE, A-level or an alternative language exam, your tutor will make sure you're as thoroughly prepared as possible.

 

To start French lessons from wherever you are in Leeds, enter your tutor preferences - subject and level - into our website and browse from our vast selection. If you're having trouble deciding, get in touch with our team - they will be happy to advise you on the best tutor for you.

Heather is an excellent French tutor! She took the time to understand where my children needed help learning French and customized their learning sessions. She is patient, kind and funny. My kids (13 & 14) were engaged and really warmed up to her. With her help, they are prepared to head into next term ahead of the game.
