Information about Maria
I am a dedicated tutor and a writer, offering tuition with French, and English as a foreign language. I graduated from the University of Warwick with a BSc (Joint Honours) in Chemistry and Business Studies (with a biochemistry option), and am fluent in French.
Since graduating I have gained the TEFL Certificate, taught English as a foreign language, and been a French-English translator. I have also worked in the pharmaceutical industry, having spent five years living and working in France, and gaining the Certificate of Commercial French from the French Chamber of Commerce.
I like to teach through telling stories and applying grammar in a practical sense, and would be very happy to help anyone with their French. Having spent a significant amount of time in France, and someone who has connections there I am very familiar with French culture, and keep-up-to-date on current culture and trends.
Furthermore, as a teacher of English as a foreign language I have experience in assisting students from various backgrounds, who wish to improve their English..

Five years` experience teaching English as a Foreign Language and coaching parents through their Cambridge First Certificate and TESOL examinations
One year`s experience as a French-English translator for not-for-profit organisations
