Lyla

I have a master degree in marketing/business and I have worked for several years in international business, customer service, purchase and finance.
It`s been 5 years that I have been giving both English and French lessons in France and in England now.
I discovered my passion for tutoring whilst I was studying in Madrid, as part of the Erasmus programme, where I was also an au pair.
I was an au pair for 3 children, aged between 7 and 15 years old, part of my role was to teach them French.
While working in France in 2012, I became the president of an associative nursery. I proposed English lesson to children of the nursery as a fun activity, both the kids and i really enjoyed the sessions. After this I began giving English lessons to teenagers and adults in France.

Availability: I`m available during the week, between 9am and 6 pm and Saturday afternoon 2:00 pm - 4:30 pm.
I already have a beginner group on Thursday morning and an intermediate group on Tuesday evening.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: Since September 2016, I am self-employed as a French tutor for children, teenagers and adults.
I have various classes, 2 conversation groups for adults I give several one to one classes to teenagers and adults to help them pass their exams.
I had been working since November at the De Montfort University conducting conversation classes and have begun recently an after school club in a local primary school.
I prepare my classes adapting myself to each group or person based on their needs and requirements
I really enjoy sharing my knowledge, my experiences, my culture and seeing my students developing and gaining more confidence.
I like to work with different support books, drawings, music, movies, and cartoons.
I think that learning a language can and should be fun.
I am patient but tenacious with my work, I will do anything to help someone succeed.
I’m really passionate about tutoring and I really want to pursue my career in this area.
