Lesson Details : 60min (1 time(s) per week)Information about Aidan
I teach languages one-to-one both online and face to face. I have more experience than most tutors as well as a lot of ideas about language learning.
As well as tutor, I`m also experienced in digital media. I write, I take photos, I produce videos and I record podcasts. I use my media experience in my language teaching.
So far I have produced one online course - Chat Fluently in German in No Time At At and I am planning more. All my students have access to my large archive of materials useful to learners.
A) My MacBook Air is my main piece of equipment, whether I`m doing face to face or online lessons. As I teach, I make lesson notes, which the student can read as we go along. Every student receives a copy of these lesson notes after each lesson. It builds into a record of the work covered and is a valuable revision aid. My longest running student has around 10 years of lesson notes, all in one file!
B) I have built up a large amount of material which I use with my students, as well as the online courses which I am slowly developing. I give my students free access to most of the material I have.
C) I have an innovative approach to language teaching. I find many of the established approaches to language teaching to be ineffective. I have lots of ideas about how to learn languages more effectively and I share them with in lessons, private tuition sessions, podcasts and online courses.
People appreciate my friendly and flexible approach. I love teaching languages, and the time seems to go quickly, students are inspired and enjoy learning.
Availability: I can tutor seven days a week, day or evening, subject to availability and travel time.
Willing to travel: 30 miles
Experience: I have many years experience as a full time freelance tutor in German, English as a Foreign Language and French. I`ve worked in Germany, Hong Kong and the Middle East teaching English. I taught MFL and English in FE and MFL in schools. In recent years I`ve taught a very wide range of people in companies, evening classes, one-to-one at home and online.

My son really likes Aidan, as do we. Each week he goes through what my son has been learning in French at school to help reinforce the curicculum in the lead up to GCSEs. He has adapted lessons to suit my son`s needs, and really helped with his confidence. The written resources he leaves after every lesson are very useful, and we have been impressed at his pupil-focused way of teaching and his adaptability. He quickly identified my son`s needs, and his lessons are focused but relaxed. We feel our son is benefiting hugely.

We are attending a trade show in Germany in May 2019. We have had 5 lessons with Aidan to give us some basic German language skills. Aidan`s classes were excellent. We learnt a lot and the sessions were very enjoyable. Can highly recommend.
