Raksha

I am a near native speaker. I studied French with Economics at Kingston University and then went on to study European Management at Dorset Business School in Bournemouth and University of Poitiers. The highlight of both courses was living, studying and working in France, first in Rennes and then Poitiers, immersing myself in the language and culture of a vast and dynamic country. After developing my business in home textiles I was fortunate to renovate and own a second family home near St Paul de Vence and Nice.
I decided to use my language skills in teaching after having my two children.
I gain immense satisfaction observing children gain overall confidence in several subject areas through being exposed to a foreign language.

Availability: Daytime, afterschool and evenings during weekdays.
Daytime during weekends.

Willing to travel: Home Only

Experience: I have been teaching French to children of all ages up to GCSE level since 2009 and adults in general conversational skills and business French. I also coach children for the Kings Scholarship for entry into Eton.
I believe the best way to learn a language is constant recycling of content in varying contexts and reinforcement of grammar concepts throughout each topic covered.
Having lived in France, I have been fortunate to develop a native accent and therefore am able to teach students how to understand the pronunciation and the flow of the French language.
