I am a teacher of Modern Languages qualified with a PGCE and a CELTA. As well as my native English, I teach French, Spanish and Italian, all to A-Level.
Whether it's one hour a week to help with homework or some tailored conversation practice, I can help you to work your way up to a higher grade.
I am a strong believer in languages as a mode of communication, not just in written but oral.
I have a depth of experience working in the private sector before I qualified a teacher and can offer tailored classes to improve business level language to give you more confidence in the boardroom.
I am a teacher of French, Italian and Spanish with a wealth of professional experience, bot in and out of teaching. During my CELTA and PGCE at the University of Cambridge, I have taught students of all ages and helped them to gain confidence in their language studies. I am currently studying German and continue to remind myself of the struggles that come with learning a second language, so that I can always relate to my students.
Throughout my many years in the private sector, I have gained experience in the private sector, working in management in The City of London, working abroad in tourism and teaching my native and foreign languages.
I have followed a passion for languages which has taken me on many adventures and as a secondary school teacher, I share this passion daily with my students. I tailor my teaching methods to the needs of my students. Some prefer to work quietly and break down complex grammar roles, others want to gain confidence in their pronunciation and prepare for a presentation at school. Whatever your requirements, I require a mutual effort from my students. Language is reciprocal and best learnt through communication.
I first met Joe when we were on a year abroad to study French in Toulouse in 2007 and we have remained friends with a passion for the continued study of the French language and culture. In my experience, Joe is an extremely conscientious, hardworking, patient, approachable and open-minded individual, all attributes which I believe transfer extremely well to the role of a teacher, especially in the field of foreign languages. I would have no hesitation in recommending him for this role.
