I am a dynamic and passionate teacher!
Half British and half French I was trained in the UK, Switzerland, Germany, and France. I have worked in orchestras in the UK, Italy, Switzerland, and Russia.

I currently freelance with professional orchestras in Scotland and I am a cover musician for Sistema Scotland.

I always adapt myself to my students and make sure that they learn in a safe and fun environment which allows them to develop their whole potential.

I teach at all levels and people of all ages.
I can teach oboe, cor anglais, reed making, music theory/aural skills or analysis/history
I can also teach French and English as I am perfectly fluent and a native speaker in both languages. This can be to improve both written and/or oral skills at any level

If you have any questions, just ask, I will happily answer!

About Me
I am a student at the High School of Music of Lausanne in oboe and at the conservatory of Paris in specialty English horn.
More than a passion, music is for me an exchange and sharing that I find especially in teaching.

In my teaching I try to convey a passion, a love of music and a know-how.

I propose a work that adapts to each individual and each expectation of each other in order to be able to better develop the qualities of my students and also to find the best possible solutions for possible difficulties.

French is a tricky but wonderful language to master. As a native speaker, and a student specialized on languages and history, I prepare my students/pupils with the simple idea of improvement whatever their level.

I expect enthusiam and work from my partner in learning. Given this, my class will focus on all dimensions on language mastering.

French is a difficult language, certainly, but it is a very beautiful language. I therefore propose to give you lessons to improve your level. The courses I propose combine written practice and oral practice which will allow you to progress as quickly as possible.

I have a degree in Spanish Philology and I also have a Master of Education. Now, I'm working in a high school near Glasgow as Spanish Language Assistant, so i'm getting very familiar with the secondary exams like Nat5, Highers or Advance Highers, and that could be very useful if you're searching a tutor especially for that.

I have also been a Language and Literature private tutor in Spain.

I'm used to adapt my teaching methodology to each different pupil and we can work specifically only in the fields that the student finds the most difficult.

The first lesson can be a first contact to see and to evaluate the needs of the student. We can look at what the pupil has been doing until now and specify which skills need to be trained.

I lived for almost 15 years in Paris (in a French family) and defended my doctoral thesis in philology and literature at the Sorbonne University.
French became my first professional language and second native language.

Passionate about the French language, I would like to share my experiences and teach you this beautiful language:
- communication for daily life,
- corrections of articles in French,
- immersion in literature,
- lots of other learning methods...

I always adapt to your interests and goals!

I am a native-English speaker with a degree and a CELTA certificate. I have just spent a year teaching English in Belgium, and was able to form special and lasting relationships with my students there. I specialise in teaching English to older students and adults, from pre-intermediate to upper-intermediate levels. My teaching focuses on contextualising English in a useful way, so that the language can be most successfully used in real life. I keep my lessons entertaining and use lots of student-focused communicative practice. I am also able to offer support with more specific areas such as CVs and written work, proofreading and job interview preparation. I am a friendly, supportive and dedicated teacher :)

As a tutor, I adopt a personalised and empathetic teaching style. My goal is to build trust with students of all ages, from children to adults. For French tutoring, I focus on conversational practice, vocabulary, and cultural nuances. As an English TEFL tutor, I emphasise real-world scenarios, grammar, speaking fluency, and listening comprehension. I assign homework weekly to assess the students learning skills and periodic progress reports monthly to see the students learning growth. Throughout, I maintain a positive and supportive tone to motivate and engage my students with fun and active activities.

My Latin class is fitting for learners at any level. Having studied Latin now for eleven years, not only in school but also at the Universities of Glasgow and Cambridge, I am extremely familiar with the language and its challenges. Using the Wheelock Latin textbook, adapted texts, and even "real" Latin literature where appropriate, I envisage Latin teaching and tutoring that focusses on the necessary aspects of grammar and rote language learning but supplements them with knowledge of Ancient Roman culture, history, and literature to make the language more alive and relevant. I am well-acquainted not only with the requirements of Latin learning at school, particularly for GCSEs, but also with the expectations of university Latin courses. A beginner will come to understand the fundamentals of the language, common vocabulary, and the "philosophy" that underlies grammatical forms and syntactical structures, an intermediate learner will come to grasp the more nuanced and trickier aspects of Latin grammar and reading, and an advanced learner will find confidence in reading Latin texts "in the wild" and the fluidity of translation and interpretation. Classes can be catered easily to the specific learning needs of any individual.

Hi, I'm Axel,

I have been working as a private French tutor for five years. As a native speaker of French with a first-class degree in French Literature from Le Mirail University of Toulouse. I moved to Glasgow 7 years ago to work as a visual artist.

I have a wealth of experience tutoring a wide range of people of all levels, from beginners to university students. I therefore possess a thorough understanding of the learning process and the specific difficulties students can face. Consequently, I have developed efficient methods of overcoming these on an individual basis. In my tutorials, I believe learning is most effective when it happens in a relaxed and comfortable environment. I therefore focus on engaging with students in a friendly manner making my lessons as interactive as they should be.

In addition to my degree, I am a qualified youth group leader with extensive experience teaching drama and art to children in schools and different institutions. I have worked as a customer service agent for 4 years in London before moving here perfecting my level of formal English. Furthermore I am a recent fine art graduate able to adapt my lessons to a more creative/visual learner.

I offer 1 hour sessions. I'm also happy to discuss longer sessions.
I also offer group tuition, which has many educational benefits - please contact me if you would like to discuss this.

I can travel anywhere within the Glasgow city area and can meet with students in their homes, or in a cafe/library. I am also happy to teach on zoom depending on your availability.

If that's something you could be interested in, please get in touch!

Looking forwards to working with you soon.
