About Me

Hey! My name is Frankline I am 18 years old and I am here to teach you French! I am a university student studying Illustration communication at Ravensbourne. The GCSE French exams were actually one of the most laid back subject exams that I have sat through so I know the exam and content really well so need to worry as I will get you comfortable with it! French is my second language after English and I am a confident and fluent speaker. The three words that I would use to describe myself are funny, chill and creative. People tend to get along with me really well especially teenagers and I love making conversation. Although I haven't had much teaching experience, I have been a teaching assistant, so I am a bit familiar with teenagers and supporting them. One of the biggest qualities about me is that I am 100% a big supporter and will be there with you every step of the way as I get that languages are really difficult and annoying, especially French. With me, my lessons will make sure that you are prepared for the exams, making you ahead of the game! If you are interested with learning with me, make sure to message me so that we can discuss it in further detail! :3

I truly think learning Spanish has to be enjoyable and challenging (positively) and my aim is to create a fun and positive learning environment in which you can really thrive, feel confident and tranquilo.

I like to approach my students to grammar structures and cultural comprehension of the language by a variety of methods and sources such as images, videos, interviews, audios, etc. and adjust exercises of reading, listening and conversation to topics related to their particular interests and personal motivations.

Are you studying Italian but want to expand your vocabulary and conversation skills? Talking to a native Italian speaker is the best way to improve your language skills! I'm 24 and was born in Italy (Siena, Tuscany, to be more specific) and move to London three years ago. I'm a performer and dance teacher, but over the years I have also worked as a teaching assistant in primary schools, so I have experience working with children as well as adults.
I graduated high school in Italy with the highest marks 100/100, specialising in classical studies especially Italian language and literature.
I'm willing to help students or Italian learners of every level to improve their skills and level of confidence and even help in preparation for tests or examinations.

Do you want to start learning French but have never learnt it before? Or maybe you want to perfect your understanding of French grammar, or your capacity to express yourself clearly, spontaneously and with confidence in French? Or work on pronunciation, perhaps improve your accent and learn more about French culture?
I can help you with all of these, and not only because I was born and raised in France: after getting my Master's Degree in Lingustics and Anthropology from the School for Advanced Research in Paris - at the time I was also teaching private classes of French and English to high school and university students - I moved to the UK and studied theatre at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. There I worked on the skills any speaker needs to communicate clearly and convincingly: diction, voice projection, etc.
These two approaches - linguistics, and theatre work - give me a strong foundation from which to help any student learn French. So jump on: we'll build a learning program tailored to your needs and make sure that the lessons are both dense and fun.

My lessons are based on standard conversational (informal) Persian spoken by mainly the middle-class educated people in Iran. I teach in three beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels:

The beginner level is mostly focused on basic grammar and vocabularies and you will learn to make simple sentences and handle basic conversations.
In the intermediate and advanced levels you will gradually learn more vocabularies, will make more sophisticated sentences and will be more confident in communication in Farsi.
In the advance level you will have lessons on particular subjects such as cooking, weather, houses, cities etc and thus you will learn related vocabularies and slang.

All the lessons are designed and written by me and all are supported by plenty of examples from everyday life.

In my class, not only yоu will leаrn Persiаn but yоu will also knоw аbоut аmаzing Irаniаn culture,music, pоetry. You will never get bored during the lessons as I cаn аlsо teаch yоu sоme eаsy sоngs in Persiаn, we will talk about delicious Iranian food ( I am going to give you some recipes in Farsi as a part of lessons) and will even listen to some Persian songs!!
We are practicing four skills together, Listening, Writing , Reading and Speaking. Also, you have homework at the end of each class.

Learning French is far more than acquiring a new language – it’s gaining a key to the wider world. With over 300 million speakers across 29 countries, French offers access to a rich and unique cultural, literary, and human heritage.
It also sharpens your English: over a third of English vocabulary comes from French. This shared history allows you to understand the etymology, structure, and subtle nuances of your own language more deeply.
I place great importance on teaching French in a way that is both engaging and well-structured. My lessons combine a literary approach: authentic texts, stories, cultural references; with practical skills for confident everyday communication. Whether your goal is to improve your speaking, broaden your horizons, or simply enjoy the beauty of the language, I’ll guide you with clarity, enthusiasm, and a supportive approach.

I studied Mathematics at the University of Oxford (Balliol College). I offer online private lessons in Mathematics, Computer Science and French.

For high-school students:
- Grades & understanding. For students who want to improve their results and deepen their grasp of their lecture notes, I offer tuition in Mathematics and French. I help students build the mathematical rigour they need to progress — turning ambiguous, complex notions into ideas they genuinely understand and can reason about with confidence.
- Oxbridge entrance preparation. Focused coaching for Oxford and Cambridge admissions tests and interviews in Mathematics. I have served as an interviewer in Mathematics at Hertford College and Balliol College, Oxford, so I know first-hand what the examiners are looking for.

For undergraduate students
- University-level lectures in Mathematics, Statistics and Machine Learning (from classical machine learning through to modern deep learning techniques).

I offer you a new learning experience.

Academic success, even at the university level, is determined by the ability to understand and write different types of texts. I offer courses that will allow you to overcome the difficulties you encounter in reading or writing by giving you the text-writing toolkit that school, unfortunately, doesn't provide. I myself had to build this toolkit over the years at university, and I will gladly share it with you so that you can succeed.

Here are the different points that my offer covers:

READING
Guided reading
Effective reading strategies
Text theory (structure, function, typology...)
General knowledge
Communication Theory

PRODUCTION
Reformulation
Summary
Reading log
Accurate
Text analysis
Characterization
Interpretation
Text explanation
Text commentary
Dissertation Essay
Comment
Argumentation

You can take a full course with regular sessions or one-off courses to do specific work such as writing a reading summary.

Lessons can be taken individually or in groups. The methods are flexible to adapt to each individual case.

What matters to me in particular:

motivate my student and give him a learning pace;
encourage their creativity;
to awaken his curiosity;
to forge a friendship with the texts

During this first lesson, you can get a solid idea of my teaching style. I look forward to meeting you.
