Sarah specialises in teaching French to adults of any level, beginners, intermediate and advanced. On top of her specialisation, she can tutor children from 5 years old. She can also help with any French exam such as GCSE, IGCSE, A-level, DELF, DALF... She is DBS checked.
Sarah holds a PGCE and was a secondary school teacher before working with us. In addition, Sarah has worked in language schools as a French teacher and delivered both one-on-one and group lessons.
She is kind and patient, passionate about languages and likes swimming, knitting and baking during her free time.
She thinks a good teacher should be able to understand the difficulties of the language they teach and know a lot of strategies and tools to enable people to grasp the language in the best possible way.
In addition to French, she is fluent in English and has an intermediate level in Spanish. She has learnt Spanish and English at school and perfected her English while living and working in London.
Every lesson follows the Structured French methodology that we have refined over more than a decade. Rather than relying on improvised conversations or disconnected exercises, our curriculum follows a carefully designed progression where vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation and conversation develop together. Each lesson is supported by our collection of twelve books, ensuring every student benefits from the same structured learning experience.
We have taught French to people from different parts of the world, adapting the teaching method to their background, requirements, and consideration of their mother tongue. We had the pleasure to teach French to university lecturers, researchers and doctors, and people working in the cinema, the music, and the media industry such as tv producers, journalists, or musicians. We have as well taught French to business owners, to CEOs, and to members of the European Parliament. Moreover, we have delivered in-company lessons, for English companies working with French ones and, to people working for French companies. Some of them are:
