Information about Jane
Hello. My name is Jane and I currently work part-time as a teacher and private tutor, university tutor, language consultant, bilingual tour guide, author and examiner. I hold two BA Honours degrees, one in German and History and one in Spanish and French. As well as my P.G.C.E. I hold the CELTA qualification and offer English as a foreign language. I am currently studying for a master`s degree in linguistics and am picking up a bit of beginner`s Italian.
Availability: Online (distance is no issue) and face to face. The events of recent months have given me a lot of experience teaching online!
I am very flexible depending on my existing bookings. I can offer day times, evenings, Saturday mornings. We will arrange everything to be mutually convenient. If you need to alter the time to fit around your schedule, I am happy to change to suit you.
Willing to travel: 10 miles
Experience: I am very confident to teach online (using for example Skype, Zoom, Teams) and face to face. I have taught for 33 years (13 as a Head of Dept). I teach German to all levels and exams, French and Spanish to GCSE. I also teach English as a foreign language, and offer IELTS & Cambridge Examination preparation as well as English for Academic Purposes. I have a lot of experience with different examination boards at GCSE and A level ( I am an examiner for 2 boards and an NVQ assessor for Business German and French) and have conducted hundreds of speaking tests at GCSE and A level. I have taught students from Key Stage 2 to adults and of a wide range of abilities, and currently teach part time at two local universities, where I teach to all levels from complete beginner to degree level (B2-C1).

Jane is not only highly experienced with the German language and culture, but also friendly, accommodating and a pleasure to spend time with. Thanks to my year of tutelage with her, I passed the B2 Goethe lanugage exam with ease and continue to study with her unwavering support for the C1 medical language proficiency exam. Jane does not hesitate to help in any way that she can and in a way that demonstrates a clear passion for teaching and helping others. I cannot recommend her more highly as a teacher and source of great moral support!
Tutors Response :
Dear Alice,

Kindest regards
Jane
