Information about Frenchie
I am a DBS checked, qualified, friendly and experienced Modern Foreign Languages teacher, passionate about languages, totally fluent in Spanish and a French native speaker.
I love to share my enthusiasm for other cultures and seeing students gain confidence in languages. I cover all aspects of language learning and focus on your individual needs to ensure you make great progress.
Availability: Evenings and w-ends.
Willing to travel: 15 miles
Experience: I have taught French and Spanish from KS3 / GCSE (AQA and Edexcel boards) to A level in secondary schools for 30 years and have been a private tutor for even longer, teaching all ages and abilities from 5 year olds to adults, individually and in groups.
I have a lot of resources and will provide guidance on what you can do in addition to lessons to improve even faster.
I offer one to one 60 minute lessons at home or online as well.
I am still on the old Tutor Hunt system where you pay a one-off fee which works out a lot cheaper for you than paying 32% fee every lesson. Just check my feedback and see for yourself. Thank you!
DBS Check: Yes

Stephan is good fun with a relaxed style. It has been really helpful to work on my basic grammar. Also the content Stephan brings to provide good stimulus both during & between lessons has been a great help. Je vous remercie!

Stephan is a great teacher: patient, funny, calm and kind. I would definitely recommend him for putting you at ease. Great to be able to just try to chat to him in French with corrections as we go along. I felt very comfortable working with him.

I contacted Stephan to help with my sons A level Spanish, after it was clear he was struggling a little in his first year. Stephan not only offered flexibility with timings as he is a weekly boarder, but also has the ability to bring himself to the level of the student to truly understand what the issues are and simplify the process of learning. Stephan is now weekly support for the foreseeable future and my son wishes he was his actual Spanish teacher.!
Tutors Response :
Thank you so much for the great feedback.

Mr Frenchie has been absolutely brilliant with my daughter. He has tutored her for approx seven months in French GCSE. She was a C grade student in her summer exams last year and has obtained with the help and guidance from Mr Frenchie an A* in her GCSE this summer. I cannot thank him enough and total recommend him to any parents that wish their child to get to their potential in this language. My daughter is continuing with French into her A Levels now and we will continue to use Mr Frenchie to ensure she gets the best grade she can in this subject. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AND ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT !

After just 5 weeks, I feel like we`ve covered more than in all my years at school...I certainly understand more and feel I can apply what I am learning, rather than just reciting it. The lessons are engaging, challenging and relevant. My comprehension and confidence is growing rapidly, and although it`s early days I`m excited and motivated to learn and improve. Merci beaucoup!
Tutors Response :
Thank you ! You make sure you put it in practise on your frequent visits to France and you will have even more fun ! Pleasure to teach you.

An excellent tutor. Has been tutoring my 15 year old daughter since September 2016. He has very quickly found her weak points and worked with her to get her French vocabulary and general French skills up to the next grade. She has just finished her mock GCSE and obtained an A*. An excellent result from a B grade to an A* grade in a short space of time. I must thank Stephan for all his help and I would highly recommend this tutor to anyone wanting the best for their child. Comes very highly recommended and certainly the best tutor we have come across.
Tutors Response :
Thank you so much for your kind feedback. I am delighted Preeya has achieved the A* she wanted. She has worked hard for it. Well done !

Stephan is a very professional teacher. He knows what to teach and how to teach it. Stephan helped my son to get a very good understanding of grammar and also to boost his confidence in both his spoken French and writing.
Tutors Response :
Thank you for your wonderful feedback Elena ! Much appreciated.
Orlanda (Miss)

Frenchie has been a really good tutor. Patient, flexible and willing to give his time, he introduces language in an extremely interesting way. He focuses on listening, and immersion of the language in order to pick up, not only comprehension skills, but also picking up french phrases to help think in French as thinking in English can be a fatal foe to writing and speaking french.
He is very resourceful, giving me french magazines to read as an example, and would send me French movies to watch.
He is also very quick to reply, which shows good organisation which I believe to be fundamental for a tutor.
I recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their French.
Tutors Response :
It is a pleasure to teach you Orlanda. A Level is demanding and takes dedication on both parts so well done to you too !

Frenchie has worked with my son for only 4 lessons, but his skills in French have already stepped up a notch! Professional. Courteous. Highly recommended.

Teaches my two daughters aged 8 and 10 and me together. Very good at pitching the right levels for us all and in the short few weeks we have been receiving tuition we have all made progress. Really like the fact that we are being taught to write the language as well as speak it.
Would highly recommend for all ages.

Frenchie is an amazing and hard working teacher, he is able to explain the topics very well , with his help my son moved from grade lower C to grade A* in speaking controlled assessment and A in writing controlled assessment. Without any hesitations I highly recommend him to others. Thank you so much Frenchie.

Frenchie continues to work his magic, he was able to help me exceed from getting C`s in French in January to A*s 3 months later. He is a great french tutor :)
Tutors Response :
That`s why I love tutoring, to see students like you flourish and exceed their own expectations. Very proud of you to have managed top grades for your coursework in so little time. It`s no magic though. It`s all thanks to your hard work too.

Frenchie is an amazing tutor. I`ve only had 5 sessions with him and my French has improved markedly. He`s very easy going and friendly, always ensuring that you understand the work and what you need to do in order to succeed. I highly reccomend him for French tuition :)
