Bonjour je suis Josephine

Joséphine specialises in teaching adults but also offers tutoring for children from age 6 and supports learners preparing for French exams such as GCSE, IGCSE, A-levels, DELF, and DALF. She is DBS checked.

Before joining us, Joséphine taught French in Belgium, where she worked with adults from diverse backgrounds and proficiency levels. She has also supported children with their French school exams and homework, helping them build confidence and achieve their academic goals.

Josephine has a passion for learning languages. She is an easygoing individual who loves to discover and learn new things. She is patient as she understands the challenges of language learning and enjoys guiding her students through the process with a supportive and positive attitude.

She believes that effective teaching is all about adapting to the individual needs of each student. She takes a patient, empathetic approach, fostering an encouraging environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes and learning at their own pace.

Outside of teaching, Joséphine loves to travel, swim, read, and continue learning new languages. Fluent in both French and English, she also speaks intermediate Spanish and Mandarin Chinese. Her language-learning journey has taken her from studying English at school and university to living in South America to master Spanish, and more recently, to Taiwan to immerse herself in Mandarin. She continues to study Mandarin weekly, reflecting her commitment to lifelong learning.
