Find Your Perfect French Tutor

As an Imperial College London Computing student, I specialize in helping IB students conquer the most demanding STEM subjects. I achieved an IB score of 43/45, with 7s in Physics HL, Mathematics AA HL, and Computer Science HL. I don't just teach the syllabus; I focus on the logic and exam techniques required to reach the highest grade boundaries. When I’m not coding or solving complex problems, you’ll usually find me outdoors. Spending time in nature is how I recharge and maintain the mental clarity needed for high-level academics. My goal is to be a mentor who helps you master your subjects while building the confidence and study habits needed to succeed at a top-tier university. Let’s work together to unlock your full potential!

I have been studying French and Spanish for over a decade and am currently pursuing Spanish at degree level. My own academic background includes grade 8 (A*) in both French and Spanish at GCSE, an A* in A-Level French, and an A in A-Level Spanish. For the past 9 months, I have been tutoring French and Spanish at GCSE and A-Level across Edexcel GCSE/IGCSE and AQA, with fantastic outcomes. This summer, my students achieved: • GCSE French Foundation – Grade 5 (highest grade possible) • GCSE French Higher – Grade 8 (A*) • A-Level Spanish – Grade A More results are pending, but feedback suggests equally positive performances. I take pride in the progress my students make—whether it’s helping a student secure a solid pass at Foundation level, or pushing a motivated Higher or A-Level student to achieve top grades. I also mentor sixth formers through the personal statement process, with my students receiving 4–5 university offers each. My teaching style: I always begin with a diagnostic assessment to identify strengths and areas for development. From there, I design a clear programme of weekly lessons, exercises, and homework. A big part of excelling in GCSEs and A-Levels is exam readiness, so I make sure my students are fully acclimatised to the papers—walking into the exam hall with confidence and no surprises. Above all, I am passionate about languages and about supporting young people. Whether a student is building confidence from the ground up or striving for the top grades, I adapt my approach to bring out the very best in them.

As a social sciences student at Durham University, I am uniquely equipped to combine a holistic approach and a more in-depth approach to my tutoring, depending on the individual learning style of each student. I can tutor students of a wide range of abilities, from beginner to advanced, in French and English Literature, having achieved A*s and 9’s in both subjects at A-Level and GCSE, respectively. I can also tutor English Language up to GCSE standard, having achieved grade 9 when I sat the exam. I graduated from Wycombe Abbey School in 2023, where I obtained twelve 9’s and an 8 in my GCSEs, and four A*s at A-Level. I have done a range of informal tutoring for GCSE and Common Entrance, and have also volunteered as an English Teaching Assistant in a local primary school. From my personal experience of being slightly less confident in certain subjects and from tutoring others, I found I really enjoy helping students achieve their full potential and boosting their confidence, especially in subjects that may not come naturally to them. I am conscious that everyone has their own unique learning style, so I will tailor my lesson plan to each student’s personal aims in order to make sessions engaging and interactive. I have full working proficiency in French, and can provide assistance with all aspects of the exam, including listening, reading, writing and grammar. Having completed several intensive language courses in France, one of my strengths as a French tutor lies in conversation practice - I can therefore also help with the oral exam, including the Independent Research Project, implementing complex sentence structures, presentation technique and using sophisticated vocabulary. While I can tutor for all exam specifications, I will be of particular use in AQA A-Level and AQA GCSE, as these are the exam boards I sat at school. For English Literature, I can cover a wide range of skills such as essay technique, text analysis (play, book, or poem), grammar and language. While I can tutor a wide variety of texts depending on the exam board, I can provide specialised knowledge in the following texts: Hamlet, The Great Gatsby, The Grapes of Wrath, The Duchess of Malfi, Paradise Lost, A Streetcar Named Desire, Purple Hibiscus, The Crucible, Jane Eyre, and Romeo and Juliet. I can provide support with a broad range of resources and key skills, especially with the CIE GCSE and the OCR A-Level specifications. For English Language, I can also provide useful resources and support with all aspects of the exam paper, including comprehension, grammar and the extended writing section. As I sat the CIE GCSE exam, I can provide specialised knowledge of this specification.

Hi! I’m Julia, a medical student at the University of Manchester with a strong academic background, achieving all A*s in my GCSEs and A-level equivalents.

Having worked with a range of different learners, I know that great results come from feeling supported and motivated. I love helping students push beyond what they think they can do and reach their full potential, whether that’s improving grades, mastering tricky topics, or preparing for university. If you’re looking for a friendly, dedicated tutor who genuinely cares about your progress, I’d love to help you get there!

I recently graduated from the University of Birmingham with a first class degree in Modern Languages, specialising in French, Russian, and Spanish. During my time at university, I completed a year abroad, studying in Estonia and Spain, which solidified my language skills. I am currently working as an English language assistant in France. I have a passion for language learning and would love to share this and inspire other people to study languages.

Hi, my name is Ibrahim and I am a first year dentistry student at Cardiff University with over 300 hours of experience teaching 11+, KS3, GCSE and A-level, as well as UCAT and interview preparation for medicine and dentistry applicants having myself scored 3000 un the UCAT and receiving 2 offers to study dentistry. I achieved 7 grade 9s as GCSE and A*AA at A-level in biology, chemistry and mathematics. As a tutor, I endeavour to invoke passion in my students by providing engaging lessons, allowing them to perform well in exams.

Hi, I'm Tommy, a first class Modern Languages graduate (French and Italian) of the University of Cambridge. I am an experienced tutor of French from KS3 to degree level and whilst at school tutored KS3 and GCSE pupils. Having recently been a student, I understand the difficulties faced when learning a language - but equally how rewarding making progress can be. I can share the tips and tricks I used to achieve an A* in GCSE and A-level French and a First in my degree. I am happy to focus sessions on exam preparation, literature and film, conversational French and anything in between. I make lessons fun and work to boost the student’s confidence through practice and encouragement. As a keen Francophile who lived in France for a year, I bring plenty of enthusiasm and nostalgia for the French way of life. I also have experience coaching candidates for the Oxbridge admissions process. I can share my expertise, run mock interviews and offer guidance about personal statements.

Hi, I'm Hugh, a University College Dublin graduate in Mathematics and English (96% GPA in Mathematics), currently studying for an MSc in Actuarial Science at Queen's University Belfast. I've tutored for five years, more than 800 hours across 80+ students, and I currently work with British GCSE and A-Level students online. In my own Leaving Certificate I got six H1s, placing in the 99th percentile nationally, including Irish 95%, French 97% and Spanish 99%. I've spoken Irish since birth and spent a year living and working in Spain and France, and I only started French in my final year of school, so I know how to learn a language fast. I teach Maths, Irish, French and Spanish, and I'm proudest of the big jumps my students have made. An A-Level student averaging a D/E was struggling across at least six topics, but the real gap was manipulating algebraic expressions. We rebuilt that skill first, and he reached an A within three months. An A-Level student, also on a C/B average, reached an A in three months once we fixed how he spotted when to use integration by substitution and how he structured hypothesis tests. My lessons start with a challenging question we'll build towards together. Rather than asking "do you understand?", I ask students to explain the idea back to me as if they were the teacher, which shows quickly what has really sunk in. I look for the root cause of a student's struggles rather than just going over old material, and I've delivered target grade improvements for every student I've taught. I'm patient, encouraging and always keen to make lessons engaging, with games and plenty of practice. Get in touch for a first lesson and we'll work out the best plan for you.

Hi! I'm Jacob, and I've just graduated with a German and Philosophy degree from Oxford. I have 3 years of tutoring experience. I am particularly proud of working with a student for two years to get the grades to get into medical school. I conducted my A-levels solely through self-learning and online tutoring, so I am deeply familiar with the process. I received 3A*s for A-level and came second in the Trinity College Cambridge Philosophy Essay competition. Online tutoring was a method that worked for me, and I'm sure I can help make it work for you! I love watching students grow in confidence and ability, and I am flexible in my approach to reflect the needs of the student. I look forward to meeting you!
