This class is for students in their final year of school who are looking to apply to either the University of Oxford or the University of Cambridge.
I have just graduated with a first-class Modern Languages degree from the University of Cambridge. I will help with interview technique and give advice as to which college to apply to and what to include in applications. I can also give practice interviews closer to the interview season.

Über mich
Hello!

I am a recent modern languages graduate from the University of Cambridge. I studied French and Spanish at university and obtained a first-class degree for my languages. I am looking to tutor French and Spanish to any level and in any discipline: I can tailor classes to suit the needs of individuals. I am sure I can help you achieve the level you want, whether you would like to improve your written skills or confidence when speaking. I like to focus on ensuring students are enjoying learning languages and are able to progress at a rate which suits them - I believe that language learning should be fun and rewarding!
I am familiar with various UK exam boards, and am currently tutoring A-Level Spanish and KS3 French.
I am also looking to help students prepare for university interviews, particularly for Oxbridge. I can give tips and practice interview techniques with students, whether or not they are applying to read languages.
Please do not hesitate to get in touch with any queries!

English conversation classes with native English speaker. I can assist you with conversational English, formal written language, or help you to prepare for job interviews. I speak fluent French, Spanish and English, so would be able to tailor your lessons to suit your level. I have experience tutoring English for primary school children, as well as leading English language conversation classes and groups for native Spanish speakers. Please get in touch with any questions!

I specialise in tutoring Spanish and French to students of all levels, particularly teenagers preparing for their GCSE or A-Level examinations. I have just graduated with a first-class degree in Modern Languages from the University of Cambridge. I am familiar with various exam boards and would tailor the classes to specific individual needs (reading, writing, speaking), and will focus on confidence, grammatical accuracy and vocabulary range. I will provide periodic progress reports as well as lists of common errors and how to impress the examiners! I would preferably teach via Skype, as this flexibility is convenient for both myself and my students, but I am based in London so would be able to meet in person there. Please get in touch with any questions!

ONE TO ONE
You come to my home or we can meet ‘on-line’ as I can offer fully Skyped facilities with webcam visual contact.
You will make fast progress, not only because the lessons are intensive and tailored to your needs and as sole student, there is no one to hold you back.
You will receive structured homework to increase your progress. This can account for up to 20% of overall learning.
I assess and aim to cater for your needs, whether beginner, intermediate or advanced level.

GROUP ‘EXAM BUSTING’ SESSIONS
Several students learning together is a most effective way of bringing an added dimension to the class. Students in partnership often form a strong bond, motivating each other, and working well together.
Six is my suggested maximum as it is vital to keep the tuition as intensive as possible.
We practice written, listening and oral exam papers and can also iron out any grammar or vocabulary issues that are relevant to the particular exam at the appropriate level.

MY APPROACH TO TUTORING
I carefully assess where my students have gaps in their knowledge and then build on closing them through grammar and vocabulary. I therefore give my students the building blocks to create their own sentences in writing and speech.
I work with their text books but also provide my own material to make lessons more interesting. I also use interactive material as well as focussing on past papers and oral exams to help gain confidence in the language.
I engage well with all my students and make the lessons enjoyable and less like an extension of school.
My conversation classes with adults are always fast-paced and fun, and my students very quickly widen their vocabulary and gain confidence in the new language.

I offer you a new learning experience.

To the uninitiated, a grammar book seems to be written in another language because the meaning of the words is incomprehensible. In a down-to-earth way, I'll translate the grammar into familiar words. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning while having a positive mindset.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both teenagers and adults who want to acquire a solid foundation of the Latin language without the time-consuming diversions of absurd school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for Latin. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.


I look forward to meeting you.
