I'm currently in my third year studying French and German at the University of Oxford. I have 3 years of experience tutoring French, German, English and Spanish across different levels. I have helped students secure top grades in examinations and places at Oxbridge. My approach to tutoring is to tailor lessons to an individual's strengths and weaknesses. I believe in bringing out the best in students by encouraging a positive mindset. I love reading and languages in general. My studies at Oxford have deepened my knowledge of not only modern languages but also textual analysis. In my degree, I am particularly interested in Medieval French literature. I love tutoring because it is so rewarding to see students make progress.

Past papers are vital in preparation for examinations. Through working on these questions together, the students can gain confidence for the real exam and begin to spot patterns across the papers.

My sessions are tailored to the student's specific learning goals. During the lesson I draw on a wide range of engaging resources including authentic examples in the target language. Past papers are vital in preparation for examinations. Through working on these questions together, the students can gain confidence for the real exam and begin to spot patterns across the papers. I also find consolidation really important so at the start of the lesson I like to revise the vocab from the week before and refresh the student's memory. I'm a patient, encouraging tutor and remember how challenging juggling exams can be. I find it really satisfying to help a student progress in their subject and to share my passion.
