Isabelle

I am an enthusiastic French native from Lille living in St Albans.

I have been working as French Language assistant at Sandringham School for six years and also at RMS for two years.

This allows me to keep my GCSE and A Level French curriculum knowledge up to date.

In parallel I tutor privately both online and face to face. I love finding out what makes students light up and helping them increase their understanding of grammar, vocabulary or culture.

Availability: Monday to Saturday

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience: I used to volunteer every Friday in a local secondary school working as French teaching assistant for years 9 to 11 (GCSE level). I would also tutor three children weekly (aged 7 to 10). So I got used to preparing material for a lesson but also offering individual support and practicing conversation in small groups.

Since September 2020, I have been the French Language Assistant at Sandringham School, mainly focusing on A Level and GCSE. This would require sourcing material for an hour long session (one to one or one to two) and prompting discussion around the topic related to French society. I also assisted in prepping them for the exam format.

For the younger groups (Y7 and Y8), we would do more role plays and games in French to keep that spark going.
