Find Your Perfect French Tutor In Leeds

Bonjour! My name is Daniel Christmas, and I am an undergraduate law student at the University of York. Having achieved an 'A' in A-level French and a very high Grade 9 in GCSE French, I have a strong academic background in the language and a good understanding of what it takes to succeed in French exams. Whether you're aiming to boost your speaking confidence, prepare for your exams or improve your grades, I'd be delighted to help! On top of this, I am CELTA-qualified — the internationally recognised Cambridge certificate in language teaching, the same standard used to train professional language teachers worldwide. This means my lessons aren't just built on knowing French well, but on knowing how to teach it: I use proven techniques like guided discovery, structured staging, and target-language immersion to make sure concepts genuinely stick, rather than just being explained and forgotten. Where many tutors can tell you the rules, I'm trained to help you actually internalise them. As a tennis coach, I worked with young players of different ages and abilities. This experience taught me how to explain concepts clearly and adapt my approach to different abilities and learning styles. I bring that same flexibility and patience to my French tutoring. Every student approaches French differently: some find written work straightforward and freeze up when speaking, whilst others are the opposite. I'll work around your strengths and close the gaps that matter most to you. I believe that one of the most important aspects of tutoring is building a positive relationship with my students. Learning is most effective when you genuinely get on with your tutor, so I strive to be friendly, encouraging and supportive. Through my extracurricular roles as a history society publicity officer, tennis coach, collegiate social secretary, international buddy, and NightSafe volunteer, I have developed strong interpersonal and communication skills that I bring to my teaching, where I aim to be friendly and patient. Whether you are aiming for a top grade or want French to feel less daunting, I am here to help. On y va!

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 am currently studying French and Italian at Durham University. I am really passionate about teaching students, and having taught English to young French children for two months in Guadeloupe, as well as teaching a wide range of UK based students on the Global Impact initiative, I thoroughly enjoy watching the students I tutor grow in ability and confidence. I prioritise tailoring tutoring sessions to students individually in order to best suit their learning style, creating a supportive and motivating learning environment. Achieving 3 A*s at A Level, and 8 Grade 9s at GCSE, I am committed to helping your child achieve their full potential. Please do contact me with any questions. I look forward to helping your child achieve academic success, whilst also inspiring a passion for learning.

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.

I’m an incoming UCL Undergraduate on one of the most prestigious language courses in the world. I received A*AAA in my A-Levels, the three As being single digits below the A* grade boundary, including a 99% score in my spanish speaking exam and a 96% score in my french speaking exam. I would love to help other young students during this stressful time to take advantage of my up-to-date current affairs and essay writing knowledge, as well as the tried and tested revision methods I have learnt, which I believe are invaluable given the lack of language resources across schools in the U.K. I would focus on a student centric teaching style, incorporating much active recall for optimised learning. For Politics; we would work collaboratively to analyse recent political events and incorporate these into detailed essay plans, for Spanish and French; focussing heavily on spoken content revision and speaking technique, as well as working through resources to improve vocabulary bases and essay writing at both A-Level and GCSE. I would also be happy to mark any work completed outside of sessions and go through these together. I am eager to understand what your specific needs are, and how I can ease the burden of examinations and revision through tailored lessons and personalised content. Until then, I can’t wait to hear from you!

My name is Michelle and I am a legal professional based in the United Kingdom with a passion for language, communication, and helping others reach their potential. Originally from Ghana, I completed my IGCSEs and A levels before pursuing a degree in Political Science and French, which included a year abroad in France. That experience deepened my appreciation for language and its power to open doors such as connecting with people across cultures. I subsequently completed a law degree at the University of Birmingham and the Legal Practice Course at University of Law. I now work as an in-house paralegal managing complex legal matters on a daily basis. My legal career has given me a strong foundation in written and verbal communication. Drafting clear, precise and well structured documents is central to everything I do professionally, and I am confident I will be able to bring that same attention to tutoring. Outside of my professional life, I enjoy hiking, exercising and journaling.

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 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!
