Information about Lucy
Hello, I`m Lucy and I`m a qualified and experienced teacher of French. My career as a teacher has spanned 30 years and I have always given private tuition both on a one-to-one basis and to small groups.
I also run the Hertfordshire branch of `[contact detail removed]` which involves teaching French to children through music, games and drama.
In recent years, I have given extensive online tuition and this has proven to be a very convenient and effective way of teaching.
By nature I am friendly, diligent and attentive to my students` needs - attributes which I consider necessary to being a good tutor. I always aim to put my students at ease from the outset. This enables them to open up and a good rapport is therefore established.
I am passionate about helping children of all abilities to reach their full potential and have a proven record of success with exam students.
Availability: I am available afternoons and evenings - Mon to Fri
Willing to travel: 5 miles
Experience: I qualified from university with a B.A. Hons (2.1) in French and Italian and a Higher Diploma in Education. I worked as a full time secondary school teacher of French for almost 20 years and taught French to all ages and levels during that time. In addition to this, I have always given private tuition to adults, second level and primary students. I continue to do this currently, with the majority of my tuition taken up with preparing GCSE students for their exams. I also run a very successful business teaching French to toddlers and primary school students. Online teaching even to this age group has also proved highly successful and effective.

Lucy is a fantastic teacher. She really took an interest in my learning objectives and tailors the lessons around these. I make really good progress in every lesson with Lucy and at the end of each lesson I feel really motivated to study and keep practicing, and I look forward to the next lesson.

In the short time that Lucy has been tutoring my daughter, I have seen a marked improvement in my daughter`s confidence and ability in French. Better still, my daughter now shows real enthusiasm for learning French. I am very impressed with Lucy`s teaching skills and recommend her without hesitation.

Lucy is an excellent tutor who has been helping my daughter in French for 9 months in preparation for her GCSE exam. Lucy was particularly good at helping her with her oral exam where my daughter gained the most confidence and her grades really improved. She went through the past papers in listening and reading which my daughter found useful as she entered the exam knowing exactly what was expected of her. Lucy was always well organised and planned the sessions based on my daughters needs and requests. I would not hesitate in recommending Lucy as a French tutor.
