      OctoberOver the past few years I have enjoyed working in around 8 secondary schools in the region, covering the majority of subjects. This has given me a great insight into the different ways of working and seeing best practices in some very differing establishments.

      Tutor of French - looking for those who wish to learn, improve confidence, skills and enjoy!

      I have spent many years in the classroom teaching French (and German). It turned out that the first 10 years involved learning how to teach, the latter half as Head of Department but more importantly refocusing the way we taught MFL and aiming to try and help every learner achieve their potential (and beyond!) and not leaving it for only those 'who can'When I decided to take a break from the classroom I promised myself that I could always try private tuition. Being a full-time Head of Department, I could never really find enough time for 1:1 or small group work which was always so much appreciated and enjoyed ... sadly for us only really during the months coming up to GCSE times. So - following a year of house renovations - I need to get back to what I do and teach MFL.My classes and students have mostly all always achieved (or bettered) their target grades, all aware that, for me, as long as they worked and tried their best, hopefully enjoyed it and may continue to use and learn in the future, then that is the true achievement! Please contact me if you are an interested and let's see where we go from there. Show less
