About Me

My name is Younes, and I am a qualified English teacher and French instructor based in the United Kingdom.
I am passionate about working with both adults and children of all ages, helping them reach their full potential in language learning.

I am currently teaching in London at my own educational institution, where I have been preparing and supporting students for the past 12 years. I have taught various English and French courses, including ESOL, ESL, Functional Skills, and TOEIC. While most of the exams I prepare students for are UK-based, I have also successfully helped French learners prepare for internationally recognised qualifications.

I use a range of digital platforms such as Zoom and Skype, along with various teaching materials, including PDFs, Word documents, and a virtual whiteboard.

My sessions typically last between 1 hour 30 minutes and 2 hours. I specialise in supporting learners from A1 to B2 levels, with the ultimate goal of helping them progress to an advanced or fluent level.

I am more than happy to tailor each lesson to meet your individual learning objectives. One of my main priorities is to help you strengthen your vocabulary and grammar.

What truly sets me apart is that I have been in your position before—as a language learner—and I have now reached fluency.

Should you have any questions, please feel free to get in touch. I would be delighted to speak with you.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Je m'appelle Younes et je suis un enseignant qualifié en anglais ainsi qu'un formateur de français basé au Royaume-Uni.
Je suis passionné par l'enseignement aux adultes et aux enfants de tous âges, ce qui me permet de les accompagner dans la réalisation de leur plein potentiel en langues.

J'enseigne actuellement à Londres dans mon propre établissement, où je prépare et accompagne des étudiants depuis plus de 12 ans. J’ai dispensé de nombreux cours de français et d’anglais, notamment en ESOL, ESL, Functional Skills et TOEIC. Bien que la majorité des examens préparés soient basés au Royaume-Uni, j’ai également aidé avec succès des étudiants français à se préparer à des certifications reconnues à l’international.

J'utilise diverses plateformes numériques comme Zoom et Skype, ainsi que des ressources pédagogiques variées telles que des documents PDF, Word, et un tableau blanc virtuel.

Mes séances durent généralement entre 1h30 et 2 heures. Je suis spécialisé dans l’accompagnement des apprenants de niveau A1 à B2, avec pour objectif principal de les amener à un niveau avancé, voire courant.

Je serais ravi d’adapter chaque cours selon vos objectifs spécifiques. L’enrichissement du vocabulaire et le renforcement de la grammaire font partie de mes priorités pédagogiques.

Ce qui me distingue véritablement, c’est que j’ai été dans votre situation : apprenant une langue étrangère. Aujourd’hui, je suis devenu fluent, et je souhaite partager cette expérience avec vous.

Si vous avez des questions, n’hésitez pas à me contacter. Je serais heureux d’échanger avec vous.
À très bientôt.

Nowadays, languages have become an important thing in the society and an added value in the work field. In my classes, I'll try to teach them the basics of each language by focusing on grammar ( english tenses , prepositions of time and place.... )and vocabulary. In addition, I'm going to assign the students with homework ( reading and writing ) so that the learning process can goes smoothly.

I have been teaching languages to all ages for the past 30 years. I took early retirement in July 2022 and have since been tutoring privately, with a very high success rate..
I have taught in the same secondary school for the past 21 years and my classes have performed well in French and German at GCSE and A level.
I have also done a lot of teaching English as a foreign language, to guests in our house.

In a multicultural work like ours, where most of the world is bilingual, knowing a second language is always an asset, and it helps you develop your cognitive capacities.

Learning a new language can sound difficult and scary. Well, think again!

I've been in your shoes, and I have found that learning a second language is much easier if you link it to something you already enjoy. In my classes, you will improve your speaking, reading, listening, and comprehension through practical exercises around a subject you enjoy, whether that is History, Sciences, Arts, or Sports.

I have mastered the exam techniques you need to pass your GCSE first time with no stress. We will not just look at the content needed to pass but also skills like time management to make sure the exam is passed with ease efficiently.

I am a highly passionate and committed history student at UCL fuelled with a desire to share my educational expertise with GCSE and A-Level History and/or French students. As a previous high-achieving and enthusiastic GCSE and A-Level student that achieved nine 9’s at GCSE and two A* and one A at A-Level, I believe that the knowledge and advice I have acquired would be extremely beneficial and I am thus eager to support students in fulfilling their academic aspirations.

My tutoring sessions will be highly flexible in terms of hours and location, and specifically tailored to suit the needs of the individual student. Whether this may be covering specific content that the student may feel less confident with, or regular exam practice through attempting exam-style questions and past papers both individually and collaboratively. My sessions will foster a relaxed learning atmosphere, ultimately allowing the student to thrive and expand their academic horizon.

In terms of my personal characteristics, I am extremely attentive and compassionate, and I possess strong interpersonal skills, a factor which is further facilitated by my bilingual capabilities (French & English). I believe that these qualities allow for me to be an open minded individual, an invaluable asset for a tutor.

Gain confidence in speaking and listening through guided conversations and role-play.

If you are looking for an engaging, patient teacher, familiar with the language acquisition process, I could be the right fit for you! It is becoming increasingly valuable to be able to speak several languages, and finding a personal tutor is a great way to start! This class will help you on your journey to learning French. The beginning of learning a language can be a daunting experience but I aim to make it approachable, fun and comprehensible for beginners, and help to expand your skills in the language.

I am familiar with young children and I understand the value in making learning a memorable, engaging and fun experience. However, I am happy to work with people of all ages looking for someone to guide them through the basics of the French language and lead them to advanced! I study French language and society at the top university in the UK, so I am able to apply the skills I acquire through rigorous teaching, and transform them into an approachable teaching style.

My name is Justine, I am French, and I’m a dedicated French tutor with a strong background in language education.

Learning French is far more than acquiring a new language – it’s gaining a key to the wider world. With over 300 million speakers across 29 countries, French offers access to a rich and unique cultural, literary, and human heritage.
It also sharpens your English: over a third of English vocabulary comes from French. This shared history allows you to understand the etymology, structure, and subtle nuances of your own language more deeply.
I place great importance on teaching French in a way that is both engaging and well-structured. My lessons combine a literary approach: authentic texts, stories, cultural references; with practical skills for confident everyday communication. Whether your goal is to improve your speaking, broaden your horizons, or simply enjoy the beauty of the language, I’ll guide you with clarity, enthusiasm, and a supportive approach.
