Are you considering using a private French & German tutor for your child? Is your child preparing for GCSE, IGCSE, AS or A-level examinations in French or German? Or are they concerned about the French element of the Common Entrance exam? Private tuition could be just what your child needs to boost their confidence and skills before those all-important exams! Liz, an experienced French & German tutor, can help.
“Liz worked wonders on my confidence.”
Private Homeschool Tuition
Modern Foreign Languages are often an area of the curriculum that homeschooling parents feel unable to teach their children. Liz has extensive experience of working alongside families to deliver subject expertise at Key Stage 3, GCSE and A-Level.
“Liz knew exactly how to help with our home schooling.”
EXTRA-CURRICULAR LANGUAGE LEARNING
Would your child love to learn a Modern Language but their school timetable simply cannot accommodate it? Liz is used to working with students where this has happened; she works with students outside of the usual school timetable allowing them to take a language at GCSE or A-Level. Many students have been taught the whole GCSE or A-Level course by Liz. Among successful previous ‘out of school’ students are several who have gone on to study French & German at Russell Group universities.
“Liz’s work with my daughter was instrumental in her decision to study Modern Languages at degree level.”
Common Entrance Exam Preparation (13+ & 16+)
Liz works with students preparing for Independent Schools Entrance exams (at 13+ and 16+) and has a strong track-record of helping her students with the Modern Language element of the entrance exams. Families appreciate Liz’s depth and breadth of language teaching experience and her expertise in boosting the key language skills tested by the entrance exams. Previous students have successfully gained places at some of the most prestigious schools nationwide, including Eton, Harrow, St Paul’s, City of London and Cheltenham Ladies. Take the hassle out of Modern Language tuition; contact Liz to schedule sessions that work for your child!
“Liz made the Modern Language element of our son’s common entrance exam a breeze.”
Language learning for adults
Or why not think about working towards a recognised qualification in a language? Liz can help adults wanting to take a first qualification in French or German, as well as those who might want to build on previous learning and gain a further qualification. Already have a GCSE in the language but fancy trying an AS or A-Level? Why not give Liz a call and chat through your goals?
“With Liz’s help, I smashed the exam – even after all these years!”
Why Liz?
Why talk to Liz about your child’s private tuition? Liz has extensive experience of tutoring students of all abilities in both French and German. A qualified linguist, with an Oxbridge MA in French and German, Liz is PGCE trained; she has extensive experience of Modern Languages curricula, having taught in secondary schools across Oxfordshire.
“Liz’s depth of knowledge is fab – I understand grammar now.”
Can a private tutor make a difference?
By working individually with her students, Liz can identify areas of strength and weakness and design tailored teaching strategies that boost the skills needed for examination success. Unlike in the school classroom, where teaching is designed for thirty students, private tuition with Liz is unique to your child. Because not every child learns in the same way, Liz is able to tailor the teaching approach to the different learning styles of individual students.
“Liz’s bespoke approach really helped with the areas my child was struggling with”
Does it get results?
Liz’s highly tailored approach to language learning has delivered impressive and consistent results; students have regularly achieved final examination grades at least a grade higher than predicted at school.
“Wow, I mean wow! Thank you so much 🙂 “
How does it work?
Liz tutors from her home in Chipping Norton and face to face via Zoom/Skype. Most students attend a weekly, hour-long tuition session. It is advisable to begin the tuition as early as possible in the student’s course, but Liz is very happy to discuss your child’s requirements at any point in their language-learning journey!
