Information about Veronique
I am a Lead Teacher of French and Spanish in a local academy and native French speaker. I have also worked as second in charge and Head of French in a secondary school.
Currently I specialise in preparing students for their GCSE, IGCSE, and Alevel French exams and I pride myself in being on a mission to help my students obtain their predicted results. All my tutees in 2019 achieved at least their predicted grades and in some cases, up to two grades above! To achieve this I use a wealth of resources which I have collected and developed over the years and I also call on, if necessary, the help of native French students to help break speaking barriers. I closely monitor progress and keep parents/guardians informed every step of the way.
As a practising teacher, I have prepared hundreds of students for their exams and have therefore a good understanding of not only the different exam requirements for all skills, but also a good knowledge of the wide array of exam revision techniques and exercises available.
Over the years I have found that the key with learning a foreign language is to build students` confidence. Once a student is confident about his/her progress and learning, then he/she will start taking risks, accept errors and thus progress is even more noticeable.
I have an absolute passion for teaching, and if I am not teaching I spend time researching the latest teaching trends and MFL teaching methods. I have developed a particular interest in revision methods which I share with my tutees and help them develop. A method they can use not only with MFL but all subjects.
Seeing my students gain confidence and progress is so rewarding. The dynamics in classroom teaching and tutoring are very different. Each of my tutees learns in a different way and I can therefore focus and adapt my teaching to suit that particular student`s needs. This is why their progress is so much more rapid than in a classroom, where this is not always possible.
If you would like to know how I would approach your particular needs, please do not hesitate to contact me, I look forward to hearing from you.

Veronique is a wonderful teacher. I booked her for a few lessons for my partner Emma, to help her with confidence in speaking French; the first lesson was by all accounts fantastic. Emma is excited about the follow-up lessons and already feels more in touch with her French.
