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 ā 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 Omarās 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 Omarās 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. Wouldnāt hesitate to recommend."
Mehta F - Spanish A Level
āMy 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. Iām delighted to say she achieved a 6(B)!! Incredible...a fail to a B in only 25 hours tutoring! Thank you James, she couldnāt have done it without you!ā
Beth W ā 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. Weāre thrilled with James, his approach and the care he brings to each session. Such a star.
Mikael J ā 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."

I am a qualified teacher of Spanish, French and German. I have taught in the classroom and been a private tutor for nine years. This includes working as a Head of Languages in a secondary school.
I've always been passionate about languages. But when I was a pupil, with an overemphasis on vocabulary and an underemphasis on grammar, the teaching limited my progress. This motivated me to become a languages teacher who gives students the underlying framework of a language in order to accelerate their progress toward fluency.
I've had proven success. Due to my GCSE results, I was promoted to Head of Department within two years of stepping foot in the classroom - success which I sustained at KS3, GCSE and A-Level.
While I love the classroom, my passion has turned towards one-to-one tuition, simply because the learning gains are so quick. Since taking on a new role for the Department for Education in whole-school improvement, I have more flexibility to offer private tuition, bringing my experience of Ofsted-outstanding teaching and learning to my online lessons.
The one-to-one format allows me to pack more into my lessons than in the classroom, and to go deeper with each of my students. You can expect to be supported and challenged. You'll have homework after every lesson.
Something I place a high value on is explaining to you, where appropriate, the language learning process so that you can begin to map out your learning journey towards fluency.
I studied Spanish, French and German at University so am equally proficient in all three. I also earned a Masters in Education Leadership in 2014.
I offer lessons at every level. Whether you're someone who has never tried a language, a GCSE student, or someone who's looking for a conversation partner, I'd love to meet you. Get in touch!

I'm an experienced science and language tutor with more than 10 years of teaching.
SCIENCES
I'm doing a PhD in Biology at the University of Oxford and have taught both within the university and in private summer schools in Oxford on the topic.
I teach both high school students who need help preparing for exams, as well as university students who want to go in-depth within a certain subject or understand course material. My methods focus on applied learning, which means I'll help you understand why it is important to learn something and what you can do with that knowledge, not just how to learn.
My teaching method for A-level students focuses on problem-based learning similar to university admissions interviews.
I am comfortable teaching younger students in a variety of science subjects, including students with learning difficulties. You can expect a very fun, hands-on approach to learning.
LANGUAGES
I have extensive experience in teaching IELTS and other language exams (CPE, TOEFL). I have taught students successfully at the last minute. My approach is very tailored to the individual, so we would focus on the most effective techniques for the student.
I have studied Spanish for over 10 years and obtained the highest certificate in Spanish as Foreign Language (DELE) with distinction. I was awarded first prize in many Spanish international competitions.
For four years, I did courses in Spanish geography, history and culture, and I normally use what I learned to make my classes interactive and more than a way of teaching a language. I like immersing people in the Spanish culture, with its food, dances, famous painters and explorers.
Have taught Spanish as foreign language for more than ten years, in one-to-one and one-to-few sessions. I adapt my style to the students I work with - for one, it can be all about having fun while translating lyrics of famous songs and watching Spanish short films (audio, experiential learners); for another it can be about rigorously tackling grammar and crafting complex stories. Regardless of the approach, you should expect that after a year of weekly/fortnightly classes you would advance by two levels (e.g. A2 to B2). I wholeheartedly recommend trying learning a language from a non-native speaker, as the way a foreign language is learned is very different from a native tongue. If you speak foreign languages, you know what I mean. If not, just give it a go!

Hi! My name is Paula, I am a Chilean private tutor who teaches Spanish, EFL and singing. I have been a tutor for over 6 years now. Starting in Chile, I taught international students who needed to learn Spanish in order to integrate to their schools or workplaces. In addition, I helped students that were new to the international school and needed support with EFL in order to successfully take part in their lessons. Around that time, I also began teaching singing lessons privately and as a Music TA.
When I moved to London I decided to continue private tutoring as a full-time job, as I find one-on-one lessons to be very fulfilling. It really is very inspiring to be able to help a student gain the confidence, knowledge and skills to expand their horizons.
My teaching philosophy is based on setting the highest standards for all my students based on their needs. I firmly believe that a tutorās highest responsibility is to bring forth the extensive potential of their student while further developing their personal interest and engagement with the subject. Because of my experience working in diverse teaching environments, I have had the pleasure of using different learning styles and creating unique studying atmospheres for students.

My name is Jonah and I am a graduate in Spanish and Linguistics from University of Oxford. In addition to Spanish and linguistics, I am interested in, and tutor, a variety of other subjects, namely French, Portuguese, English language, English literature and Maths. My attitude towards tutoring revolves primarily around the confidence of a student, and I have observed first-hand the major role that self-belief plays in learning. In my experience, what can often hold a student back is a lack of self-belief rather than a lack of ability for a given subject. Therefore, my tutoring style places an emphasis on nurturing confidence in a student. For example, I encourage all of my students to ask questions (I am of the opinion that there is no such thing as a stupid question!) in order that they are completely clear on, and therefore, confident of, the subject matter. I have found that a student with a high level of self-belief has a much greater propensity to take the lead in sessions and, as a result, to learn more efficiently and to enjoy the given subject!
My extensive knowledge of language (I speak Spanish, French, Portuguese and Italian) and understanding of linguistics put me in a perfect position to tutor and teach these subjects as there are few language-related difficulties that I have not before encountered myself as a student. My number one priority in teaching languages is the student's understanding of grammar as knowledge of the structure of language is both what is rewarded at the higher end of mark schemes and what gives the student confidence when they come to use their language skills. That said, I am fully aware of the importance of practicing the spoken element of a given language and in this way, learning more intuitively. In my opinion, a happy balance between the two is most conducive to language learning.
In many ways the formulaic, structured and rule-based nature of language is reminiscent of mathematics and perhaps it is for this reason that I chose to study it at A level. Although I did not go on to study maths at university, it was my favourite subject by the end of my school career and I often wish I had taken it further. As with languages, I believe confidence is key to the apprehension of mathematics and, therefore, I encourage my students to see maths as a series of puzzles to be solved rather than a set of daunting exam questions.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch for any further questions!

Hi there! I am currently a third year Spanish and Italian student at the University of Bristol, and currently find myself in the middle of a year abroad I didn't quite expect! Having done both GCSEs and A-Levels, I completely understand the stress it can cause and sometimes just a little personal attention can go a long way. On the flipside, also wanting to pick up a new language myself, I understand how a more mature environment needs to be adopted to encourage progress. I studied Spanish, English Literature and History at A-Level, which has encouraged a strong connection with Humanities subjects in general, and am very aware of the challenges these types of combinations can cause. I have also spent five months living in Spain, and so have a competent knowledge of the language and the culture.
I have a wide range of experience working with children and young people, and during my time in Spain, took on an English class whilst I was there, which very much opened my eyes to the challenges that accompany teaching languages, but nonetheless was a very enjoyable experience. I also spent two years teaching piano, and therefore have developed a great amount of patience, and the understanding of how to adapt teaching methods to get the most out of the student. Alongside this, I spent four years volunteering to teach dance to young people from the age of five up to 18, which has given me experience of working with different age groups and education levels.
As for my teaching style, I can be pretty flexible. I'm no battleaxe, but I am determined and won't give up until we have found an engaging way to understand topics. Depending on the needs of the student, I can offer speaking practice, grammar reinforcement, vocabulary and comprehension activities, or a combination, as well as support with cultural topics, accent improvement and listening help. A standard session would involve focusing on a particular grammar topic, and then activities that promote vocabulary expansion, before looking at speaking activities that encourage active engagement with the language, however this can be adapted to the student's requirements.

I am currently Head of Languages at at an all through school, and this opportunity has equipped me with the knowledge, skills and experience to be successful in this role and bringing my expertise in the developing of an engaging and exciting MFL curriculum.
As a hard-working teacher who loves languages, since the beginning of my teaching career, I have always strive to encourage and combine an enjoyment for learning and communicating in a foreign language, as well as an interest in the Wider world to become a knowledgeable global citizen. I believe that my energy and positive attitude towards my own subject and others, coupled with a desire to provide students with the opportunity to fulfil and exceed their potential, makes me a valuable leader to the Modern Foreign Languages department and the school as a whole.
During my time as a Head of Department, I have been responsible for redesigning and developing the SOL in KS3 and KS4, in order to meet the demands of the new GCSE for Spanish and French. I have focused on promoting an inclusive curriculum, enabling all students to make genuine progress with the aim of increasing accessibility to the new GCSE course. I have also contributed with lesson planning, adapting assessments to incorporate features of the new GCSE since year 7, as well as implementing and monitoring the marking and homework policy in the department to ensure that all students make adequate progress giving enough opportunities to revisit important skills as well as reflecting in their own learning. I have also supported other members of the team in becoming confident to differentiate lessons for the less and most able. I am always looking for ways of enhancing studentsā language and cultural learning and as such, I have established great links with the KS2 languages provision in my current school as well as overseeing the SOL offered. At Wren I would bring the best of those experiences to implement a five-year GCSE course that meets the high demands of the reformed examination by focusing on the relevant skills from the beginning. This approach will also guarantee pupils to be ready for A level.
I have lead the introduction of Mandarin at KS2 and KS3 as enrichment and as additional language at KS3. I have also organised frequent visits to Tapas restaurants, Cambridge University, and have supported school trips to France as well other important extra curriculum visits. I have organised letter exchange with an International school in Spain and America, which was after used for the International School Award, and have used Skype conversations with a school in Spain to motivate Year 11 students to consider the subject at A-Level. Moreover, I have organised several Spelling Bees.
I always seek out challenges and I am excited by the opportunity to inspire students with significant barriers to learning to overcome their difficulties and to share my passion for languages. Since I started my teaching career in 2009, I have always tried my best to help students to achieve their full potential. In my first two years of teaching I taught Spanish to all year groups (Year 7-13) and French to KS3, achieving outstanding results 98% (A*/C) GCSE (low ability group) 98% (AS) and 80% (A2). As a Second in Department and Lead in languages at a separate school, my commitment to raise attainment and my enthusiasm for teaching languages led to an increase in the number of students studying Spanish at GCSE from 45 the first year to 135 students the following year from different abilities. Last year at SMSJ, 65% of the Spanish students achieved 9-4 grades with only one-hour lesson in year 8 and year 9 at KS3 in mixed ability classes. This year, I have 55 students from high, middle and low abilities classes and am on track to achieve their FFT20 in Spanish due to the action plan we are putting in place to accelerate learning and improve attainment. Next year, 95% of the students are taking Spanish and French as one of their GCSE options.
I am responsible for analysing data related to our results in order to tailor interventions for the students falling short of their target grades. I also have used this information to make improvements within my departmentās teaching and learning. I believe that one of the key ways to address this issue is the involvement of parents in their childās education. I have contributed to developing close links with parents, letting them know through letters and constant communication how they can support their children at home. As a Department, we base our interventions on end of term data. We identify underachieving students and put in place interventions in class or after school, in order to personalise their learning and support their needs, and at the same time, make important decisions on how to maximize Human Resources and expertise within the department to make faster and more sustainable progress. Data is used to support my judgements about studentsā progress, but data is only informative if it is accurate. To support all members of staff I organised standardisation and moderation sessions. This has been successful in setting standards across the Department as well as allowing other members of the team to share good assessment practice.
