About Lorene
I am a native French speaker, PGDE-qualified Secondary Modern Languages teacher, and experienced private tutor.
I have worked in secondary schools as both a language assistant and a classroom teacher. I hold a deep understanding of French and English, and a unique insight as a native speaker who has tutored in both countries and worked in the school system.
I take a structured approach to learning and believe rigour to be any student's best tool to getting the highest grade.
My decade long experience working with young people, combined with my hands-on experience as a language assistant and classroom teacher, has given me the best tools needed to bridge the gap between basic vocabulary and excellent academic performance. My track record, including guiding a student for 2 years from barely writing a grammatically correct sentence to an A* at his A-level, is evidence that my method works.

I deliver lessons bilingually, switching seamlessly between English and French to match the student’s needs and level.
My standard course is structured as a two-hour session designed to maximise progress:
- We begin with a past paper section completed under strict exam conditions to build time-management and test confidence.
- We mark the paper together to identify specific weaknesses. This leads directly into targeted grammar instruction, from a quick rule refresh to a thorough lesson. We may do dictation exercises or creative writing to support the grammar lesson.
- We end each session with authentic cultural input (music, film, or heritage) paired with natural French conversation.
- I always assign homework between sessions, typically a short essay to write or a book passage to read.
Lesson Formats:
- My recommended format is a weekly 2-hour block. This allows enough time to cover exam practice, thorough grammar instruction, and conversation in a single session. (I do not offer sessions longer than two hours, as concentration drops and students do not benefit from the extra time.)
- I can provide one-hour lessons specifically to tackle a single targeted problem, review school homework, or conduct an intensive oral prep session.
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Lorene has been a close friend of mine for years, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! As a native French speaker with teaching qualifications and experience, she brings great expertise to her lessons. She is supportive and patient—qualities I see constantly in how she interacts with others and teaches her own family. If you are looking to learn French, you are in good hands with Lorene!
Lorene is very patient with students at all levels, but what is special about her is that she can talk about the culture and how language evolves over time to help you understand how the language and the phrases work. I've often come to her with things I learned in other French classes and was happy when she could explain a sentence or phrase better so I understood.
