Claire

Based in England since 1999, I am a native French Teacher with experience teaching adults and teenagers of all levels and abilities. I hold a French MPhil in Literature and Philosophy from Lille 3 University and the Cambridge Certificate of Proficiency in English.
I thoroughly enjoy working with teenagers and adults and assisting them in developing their knowledge and their confidence at their own pace.

Availability: I am available from Monday to Friday between 9am and 7pm and on Saturdays between 9am and 12pm.

Willing to travel: Home Only

Experience: I have worked as a tutor for the last 19 years, teaching French to children from the age of 10, teenagers and adults of all levels and ability either on a one-to-one basis or in small groups. I am friendly, patient, imaginative and supportive, and have helped many students with their 13+, GCSE, IGCSE, A level, IB, Mlat, University degree as well as DELF and DALF.
I have experienced working with students with Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, and on the Asperger spectrum.
I adapt my teaching techniques to suit the student`s learning style and ability and work on all areas of the language such as conversation, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation or the French culture.
I encourage students to reach their full potential in French by teaching them how to organise their work, be methodical and help them to build up their confidence through practice in a relaxed atmosphere.
