French and English (Foreign Language) Tuition in Chessington

Bonjour, I am Caroline, a French native speaker based in Chessington, in the London borough of Kingston-upon-Thames. Mum of 2 children aged 6 and 10, I have been a private tutor for 5 years and I love it.

Before going into teaching, I have worked as an English-to-French translator and subtitler for 20 years so I have an extensive knowledge of the French language. I also love sharing my deep interest for French culture (history, art, food, lifestyle, fashion, etc.)

Tutoring Experience

• I teach French as a foreign language to students aged 5 to 70+, either in person (1-to-1 or group) or online.
• I run adult classes.
• I work in a Saturday French school (part of the Parapluie FLAM organisation).
• I can help prepare for exams: GCSE, A levels or DELF.
• I teach French to native or near-bilingual students following the French curriculum from France. I always adapt my teaching to their specific needs taking into account the fact that near-bilingual students all come from different backgrounds and have different levels in French.

Tutoring Approach

During the first lesson, I introduce myself, I get to know the student and I assess their level. Then we can define together the learning objectives and I will draw up lesson plans and choose resources which will match the student's needs.

I use a wide range of resources (online or paper) and give homework to consolidate the learning.
