Bronia

French woman living in London since 2004, I have more than 20 years of experience teaching French to adults and children.

Trainer for senior executives at various blue-chip organisations I prepare my clients for professional interactions with French counterparts and check progress against the European framework of reference A1 to B2, in DEFL exams.

I have devised resources and activities to enable cross cultural communications for negotiators and designed interactive modules on French cultural identity and institutions.

With a background in international socio-cultural project management and drama, my lessons entail a direct application of language structures using games, practical activities, storytelling, cultural explorations and debates. Super methodical, ultra practical ... and fun!
Very quickly, the student learns to deal with a situation using French and only French.

I have prepared students for their GCSE and A level exams with an in depth knowledge of the AQA and Edexel syllabus and transformed the student’s approach to French by providing the language structures and idiomatic reflexes usually brushed over at school ( leading some students from the brink of a C- to shiny gate-opening A)

I have also prepared high school students for scholarships top public schools (i.e. Eton, Westminster) and Russell Group university language admission tests.

Contact me if you want a refresher, polish up your school French and are an absolute beginner.
