Information about Serena
I am a French native and Ive been living in the UK for 8 years after passing my degree in Librarianship. I also have a Baccalaureate Diploma - the French equivalent to A-levels - in French literature, Foreign Languages and Philosophy. I first started to teach six years ago and I grew an immediate passion for teaching my native language.
Availability: I`m a full-time tutor and I usually arrange lessons whenever it`s best for both students and me.
I am available for tutoring in Newcastle City Centre and in the surrounding area.
Willing to travel: 20 miles
Experience: I teach French full-time, and I can provide lessons for learners of all ages and levels. I can also tutor academic students preparing for exams: so far I have tutored four students preparing for French iGCSE, AQA GCSE and AQA A-levels.
Students say that I am a dynamic and engaging tutor. I always encourage people to speak and help them to grow their confidence. Im also very flexible: each of my lessons are carefully planned depending on my students individual needs, and I make sure to give regular feedback.
As a speciality, I like to include board games in my teaching, so students can learn and have fun at the same time. I regularly organise local events that combine board games and the French language, and which are very successful.
Im always looking for opportunities to meet new students. As a learner of Spanish, Im also looking for somebody who would fancy doing a language exchange with me (preferably with a Spanish native speaker). Please message me if you are interested.
On top of teaching, I provide other services such as proofreading, interpreting and translating. Please feel free to contact me if you want more information.

I have recently started lessons with Serena. She is a very friendly person who puts you at ease immediately. She comes prepared for lessons and uses different methods ie conversation, games etc to make the lessons different and interesting. She explains the grammar of the language very clearly and is keen to tutor in a way that suits the pupil. I feel confident at the moment that my french will be greatly improved!
