Levels We Offer For French Lessons: Beginner French, Intermediate French, Advanced French, Expert French

Alex's feedback about Pascale (Beginner French tuition near Menstrie)

Pascale is a fantastic tutor and makes learning French a really enjoyable experience. She puts you at ease immediately, especially if you have any nerves around speaking another language, "sounding silly", etc. I have been having lessons for a couple of months now and feel more confident and can feel my vocabulary and understanding of the language improving. I also agree with other reviews - the lessons feel tailored to me and you can see a clear plan for progression. I would highly recommend Pascale.

Michael's feedback about Louise (Beginner French tuition near Worcester)

Louise is a great teacher and I am enjoying my French lessons very much.

Chris's feedback about Laurence (Advanced French tuition near Walton-on-Thames)

Outstanding. Laurence is a first class tutor- knows not just her subject matter (French obviously), but a masterful understanding of the exam boards to go with it. I, simply, would not hesitate one bit (indeed I won't hesitate with my next kid coming through) to recommend Laurence and have her as a tutor. My only regret?- I wish I had found her 2 years ago. A really outstanding choice.

Fraser's feedback about Alice (Intermediate French tuition near Stirling)

Alice has been an excellent tutor. She is very supportive and has created a learning plan tailored specifically to what I require.

Simon's feedback about Paula (Intermediate French tuition near Hemel Hempstead)

Paula struck up a great rapport with our 12 year old son and helped him through his French exams. She was a pleasure to deal with and our son really enjoyed the sessions

Nick's feedback about Claire (Beginner French tuition near Halifax)

Claire has been a fantastic French tutor. Every session she is prepared with tailored exercises to progress. I had a spell away and she made the transition back painless and got me back at the level I was very quickly with bespoke and prepared tasks.

Christopher's feedback about Sarah (Advanced French tuition near Lancaster)

Sarah is an excellent teacher. She is completely fluent in French, but has immense patience.

Christopher's feedback about Mireille (Advanced French tuition near Lancaster)

Mireille excellent on phone, but I haven't had a lesson yet. Due tomorrow. If she send me her bank details I shall pay money straight into her account.

Olivia's feedback about Tracey (Intermediate French tuition near Canonbury)

Tracey is a great teacher and tailors our lessons to my needs / requirements - she's very friendly and has excellent lesson activity ideas! I'm really enjoying refreshing my French with her.

Lottie's feedback about Anne (Intermediate French tuition near Northampton)

Anne is a brilliant tutor! Her lessons are engaging and tailored to my needs as an A-Level student and her sense of humour makes the lessons even more fun, I would recommend her to anyone, thank you Anne!

Whatever your reasons for learning French, working with a private French tutor is a great way to pick up the language. With the help of one of our private French language tutors you can improve your French conversation or work on French spelling and grammar. Private French language tutors also move at the pace that is right for you.

A private French language teacher will provide personal support until you have reached the level that you need. Unlike a personal French language course, private French tuition also has the flexibility to meet your needs. You may want your French tutoring to focus exclusively on your French speaking, for instance, or need to learn French geared to business instead of just personal use. To ensure you find private French classes in your local area that suit you, we ask all of our private French tutors to detail their experience in a personal profile. As you browse these profiles you can also see feedback on our private French tutors.
