Information about Nicola

- French

I have prepared numerous students for GCSE and A level where I reinforce the curriculum topics as well as providing grammar revision and encouraging conversational skills. Most of my students attain an A Grade.

At primary level, I use a varied and proactive course covering everyday topics as well as grammar, which I feel is very important and often neglected in schools. I also place an emphasis on the spoken language.

I also teach conversational French to adults.

Most of my tuition is carried out on a one to one basis but I am happy to consider small groups.


- Maths, English, 11 plus preparation

I reinforce the National Curriculum at Key Stage Two in both Maths and English. I establish if students are experiencing problems in particular areas so that we can concentrate on alleviating them. I give instruction in the various types of verbal and non-verbal reasoning techniques and provide ample practise papers for the students to complete at home so that they gain adequate experience before taking the entrance examinations.

Again, most of my tuition is carried out on a one to one basis but I happy to consider small groups.

I am situated within the vicinity of Wallington High School for Girls, Wallington Grammar School for Boys and Wilsons therefore ideal for after school tuition sessions.

I offer tuition from my home and do not travel to the tutee.

Availability: Weekdays and evenings.

Willing to travel: Home Only

Experience: I am a fluent French speaker and have also lived in France for a number of years.
I have taught French for 15 years, both in school and from home. I have experience in tutoring students to all levels of French including A-level

I have prepared numerous students for the 11+ entrance examinations, which includes reinforcing Maths and English at KS2/3 levels as well as providing instruction and practice in verbal and non-verbal reasoning.

I have also tutored students in English when it is their second language.

Mrs Nicola is very professional, approachable and flexible. After experiencing some other tutors my son is most happy with the GCSE french tutoring with Nicola.
Nicola explains things very well and able to communicate effectively so my son "gets" it.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Mrs Nicola for tutoring.

Nicola previously tutored my daughter and we were really pleased with the progress she made. So, we`ve now returned to Nicola to help our son with his French.
