Experience
Since qualifying as a languages teacher, I have taught French and German in a comprehensive school to the 11-18 age group. I have tutored teenagers and adults privately in both French, German and Italian. I have also provided French and German classes for international companies and have used my languages extensively to liaise with customers and colleagues overseas and also provide translating and interpreting. This experience of using languages in a business setting means that I am also well placed to teach languages to adults for business purposes. I currently tutor online for French and German, Italian and more recently English as a second language to both individuals and business.More
I can offer a learning program which is specifically tailored to suit the individual’s needs, whatever the level of knowledge or ability. If required, lessons can be adapted to focus on specific areas such as grammar or conversation practice.I am a perfectionist and will strive to offer the best tuition possible, by thorough preparation and the use of a variety of learning materials and approaches. If required homework can be set to consolidate knowledge learnt. I want your learning to be productive and engaging. It can open a window into foreign culture and soon you will realise how much fun it is to be able to communicate in another language. I am mother to 4 children and know the importance of patience and making learning worthwhile, enjoyable and fun!
I have always had a love for languages and would love to instil you with the same enthusiasm. Having lived abroad as part of my degree, I still keep kept my languages fresh by reading foreign literature and keeping in touch with German and French friends.
