My name is Aurelia, but you can call me Lily. I am a Franco-Mauritian lawyer, practising international commercial and maritime law. I studied law in Paris and Swansea, and I am currently living in London. Teaching has always been a passion for me. I previously taught for several years to students all around the world (Japan, Brasil, France, UK, Taiwan, Egypt), from every level and at every age. I am a very positive and communicative tutor who always seeks to help my students reach their goals whether it is for school, business or travelling. My method is rather simple as I tailor my lessons from one student to another. My target is to help you become "un merveilleux" French speaker, an accomplished English speaker or provide you support for your legal studies! Regarding my hobbies, I am a real Foodie and Traveller at heart. I love discovering arts and teaching aside from my professional career. Not to mention the hours I can spend geeking on different video games. Hence, I will always make sure to put my "joie de vivre" and kind personality in the lessons we will have together. I believe that there are no bad students or horrible accents, but only bad methods and wrong tutors. It would be my pleasure to have you as my next student, so don't be shy and book a lesson with me :) A bientôt, see you soon in class! *French Baccalaureate *LLB (Licence en Droit, spécialité droit international et européen) - Paris I Pantheon-Sorbonne * DULA Common Law - Paris I Pantheon-Sorbonne * MA (International Commercial Law) - Paris I Pantheon-Sorbonne * LLM (International Maritime Law) - Swansea University * GDL - BPP University (London)

Preferred Student Age Groups Am happy to tutor primary/ GCSE/ A-Level, as well as students or adults who have English as a Second Language. About me I love to travel, explore new places and meet people from different cultures. I spent ten years living in Athens, Greece where I worked as a private tutor: teaching TEFL to a wide variety of people - from complete beginners to students wishing to take Cambridge Proficiency exams in order to access UK universities. I have a BA Hons degree in Modern Languages: English/French with a module in Classical Greek Language and Literature. I believe in stress-free lessons , and learning in a relaxed setting. As a tutor I am not there to add pressure, but to help take pressure off. In terms of hobbies, I love reading, writing stories, and watching Turkish TV dramas. I am also a huge tennis fan. Last, but not least, I enjoy all forms of sugar - especially cake! Aside from my degree, I am qualified to teach TEFL. I really enjoy working with those who don't have English as a first language. It's a thrill to help them improve their speaking and listening - as well as reading and writing skills. It's wonderful to see them grow in confidence when expressing themselves in English. Furthermore, I am qualified to do proofreading. This fits in well with teaching English. I also have a certificate in Counselling Skills.

Hello ! I'm Valentin and I'm an enthusiastic french tutor. Willing to learn French and discover all its secrets ? Here I am ! I offer and adapt my lessons to be suitable for all ages. Whether it's simple conversation, grammar exercises, comprehension, writing, reading or pronunciation. I will work with you to improve your French the best way possible. I can also help with homework or GCSE preparation ! However, you will see that studying with me is not like school. I don't do notation system. What's important for me is to relax the student so that he wants to try to express without being afraid of making a mistake. And even if he does, I could take time to correct him and see together how to improve himself. Mistakes are part of the process of learning. About myself ! I'm mostly a travel-addict and I tell my stories by making cartoons. I've been teaching French to people for two years now and I really discovered the joy to share. I'm quite certain I will share my enthusiasm with you. What's primordial for me is to make people at ease and create a trustful relationship between teacher/student. I have : - Master's degree in Film studies allowing me to teach as a cinema teacher. - DAEFLE training to have the official FLE teacher title. (DAEFLE = Diplôme d'Aptitude à l'Enseignement du Français Langue Etrangère = Diploma of aptitude to teach French like a foreign language).

About me: I'm a recent university graduate trying to find my place in the world. I have worked in a sixth form college where I cultivated my love for teaching and learning, as well as supporting young people in complex situations thorugh their education. I know what it's like to be an outsider; I'm neurodivergent and I lived in France for six months as a part of my degree. I want to help others who feel as though they don't fit in to have success and joy in what they do. I have a ton of hobbies, more than I can really keep up with, including: creative writing, reading, crochet, video gaming, dungeons and dragons, digital art, video editing, singing - and these are just the ones I'm focusing on at the moment! In school I was always an active member of the student voice community, and this continued into university where I was the academic president for Modern Languages and Linguistics and ACIS (for international students). I worked hard to ensure that my colleagues had the support that they needed to succeed. I was also on the committee for the creative writing society, which brought me a lot of joy throughout my time at university. I am looking to eventually get a teaching qualification, as I would love to be able to support learners throughout my life.

My journey as an engineering student has been full of exciting opportunities to apply maths and science to real-life projects. This fuels my enthusiasm when I teach, and I love sharing examples from my own work. Recently, I worked with TotalEnergies in France, exploring the valorization of desalination concentrate. One of my favorite projects was producing biodiesel from eggshells, which I showcase when discussing energy in physics. I also had a blast running STEM workshops in Dubai for kids. I'm an active member of AIChE and love participating in physics competitions. I won first prize in "Girls Got It" by building a mini robot with my team and creating a simple pendulum model. I'm passionate about science and STEM, and I strive to show my students how thrilling these subjects can be! My name is Karen, and I'm a dedicated tutor for maths and science. I've been tutoring for four years and hold a Master's degree in Industrial Chemistry and Petrochemical Engineering. I achieved A*/A grades at GCSE in mathematics and physics, and an A in A-Level maths. I've always enjoyed school and hope to share that passion with my students! I teach A Level maths and physics, and I also specialize in chemistry, French, maths, and physics at Lower Level and GCSE levels. I have a C1 level in French, a favorite hobby of mine since I started lessons at six. Over the years, I've become very familiar with the content and perfected my teaching methods to ensure the best results, no matter the time frame. Teaching is a true passion for me. It's incredibly fulfilling to help students achieve their goals, whether they love the subject or just need to pass.

Hi! My name is Aurora and I am a postgraduate student at the University of Manchester, studying a Masters in Development Economics. I am originally from Italy, but I moved to the UK when I was 16 and sat both my GCSEs and A Levels in London. In my GCSEs I achieved 8 A* and 4 A grades. These were the second-highest results in my cohort, despite the fact I had only been living in England for two years before sitting my exams. At sixth form, I taught myself French A Level in just one year and achieved an A grade, the highest grade in my class. I have always found learning languages an extremely rewarding, albeit sometimes frustrating process. Although languages open up doors to new ways of thinking and seeing the world around you, grasping the different aspects of a language, such as its grammar, can be demoralising. And that’s what I am here for - as a fellow language learner, I can empathise with the difficulties of this process and will do my best to make it as smooth and fun as possible. Furthermore, as a foreigner who has been through the UK education system, I am able to advise those in similar positions and facing similar challenges. Students learn in different ways, so I will adapt our lessons depending on your preferred learning style. During the introductory lesson, I will ask you questions in order to determine how you study, and your responses will shape the way I plan our future sessions. I will also be interested to know the topics you are struggling the most with, in order to give me a clearer idea of the areas I should focus on. I look forward to hearing from you! All the best, Aurora Qualifications: Msc, Development Economics and Policy at the University of Manchester (September 2023 - September 2024) BA, Economics with French and German at the University of Sheffield (September 2019 - June 2023) : First Class with Distinction in Spoken German A Levels (2016 - 2018): French (A), Italian (A), Chemistry (A), Mathematics (A) GCSEs (2014 - 2016): English Language (A), Chemistry (A), Physics (A), Further Mathematics (A), Biology (A*), Mathematics (A*), French (A*), German (A*), Italian (A*), ICT (A*), Religious Studies (A*), English Literature (A*).

Lower Level: French GCSE: French A-Level (AI) : French Higher Level: French Languages: English and French Preferred Student Age Group: (Any/Primary/GSCE/Leaving Certificate/A-Level) I was born in Paris and raised in a bilingual household with no shortage of music. My father was a singer-songwriter, my mum plays the violin and I started singing before I could walk. After earning a diploma in Performing Arts in California, I moved to London and lived there for many years before relocating to the beautiful West of Ireland. After moving to London, I started teaching French and English as a Second Language to private students between auditions and performances and completely fell in love with teaching languages. Apart from performing and teaching languages, I really enjoy travelling and have had the chance to visit many countries in Europe and beyond. I have a real passion for the Italian language and love spending time in Florence, one of my favourite cities in the world. Last but not least, I love reading, have an extensive knowledge of French and Irish History, and also adore animals ... cats, dogs, horses... I love them all.

Karina

My 12 year old daughter needed extra support in English and Maths so a friend recommended us to GoStudent. My daughter had listened into one of my friends child's sessions with Isra and following her own trial session she wanted to get started straight away. We have 2 sessions booked a week with Isra for Maths and Daisy for English. My daughter loves her sessions and finds the way things are explained to her much easier to understand outside of the classroom environment

The teacher is really friendly and helped my kid to understand completely the lesson using examples that made it more interesting. Never rescheduled a lesson and every homework was immediately corrected and send back.

The benefits of French tutoring

French tutoring to improve grades and self-confidence

One of the biggest difficulties with learning a language is a heavy reliance on the teacher. While apps have made self-learning more accessible in recent years, they cannot correct written work the way a teacher can or replicate the experience of having a conversation with a native speaker.

Large classroom scenarios don’t allow teachers to give every child the individual attention they need to work on problem areas either.

A French tutor, by contrast, can offer additional help and practice tailored to individual strengths and weaknesses.

At GoStudent, our French tutors make the most of the interactive digital whiteboard and introduce games and fun topics to make the sessions as enjoyable as possible.

French tuition is not just about teaching course content. It’s about supporting your child, boosting their self-esteem, and tailoring lessons according to their needs. This leads to improved understanding and better exam performance.

The advantages of studying French

Learning French or any other language takes perseverance but is linked to improved memory and cognitive skills. It is even thought to lower the risk of developing dementia later in life. French lessons do more than keep the brain active, however: they are the gateway to travelling or working abroad.

If your child does well in their primary school French lessons and continues into secondary school and degree level, they will have access to many job opportunities. These could include doing a ski season in Quebec (Canada) or even working for the United Nations in Geneva. It may be that your child has no desire to travel but end up working at a French multinational in the UK. In a global world, speaking French pays off.

Careers related to French include:

  • Teacher
  • International relations
  • Journalist
  • Translator/interpreter
  • Bilingual customer support
  • Cultural events coordinator
  • Travel agent
  • Immigration officer
  • Foreign diplomat

French exam preparation and French revision classes

French exams test skills in reading, writing, listening and speaking. Many students find reading the easiest of the four areas as there are words that French and English share that are easier to spot on paper due to differences in pronunciation. Writing them down or pronouncing the words correctly can be a lot harder, however.

Spaced repetition is critical for French revision. Your child needs to keep up with their schoolwork and practise regularly outside of lessons so vocabulary, grammar and their accent become natural and ingrained in long-term memory.

This is how practical French tutoring works at GoStudent

No matter what level your child is at, we will have a French tutor who will work to meet their specific goals. Do they want to just pass their French exam or would they like excel as they intend to study it further?

Our French tutors can provide additional revision materials and offer advice on how to study for the different components of the exams. This boosts confidence and leads to better results.

Answering student's questions about online French lessons

Is private French tuition affordable?

Your child can get French tuition for as low as £21.99 per session. The price of each private tuition session depends on how regularly and for how long your child takes tuition with us. Book a free trial session with us and you can find out how affordable private tuition with GoStudent can be for you.

As well as French, does GoStudent offer private tuition in other subjects?

GoStudent can help give your child support with private French tuition as well as offering tuition for 40+ subjects. Select from a range of subjects including Physics, Geography, History. Your child isn't tied into one subject with GoStudent. Maybe your child needs support with French now but as their needs change we can also offer tuition across different subjects.

How can private French tuition in help your child?

Whether your child is working towards better grades, improving their confidence in French at school, GoStudent can find the right tutor for your child to get the most out of school. We do this by finding the perfect match between students and tutors.
