I'm a third-year undergraduate student from the University of Oxford, and I'm offering individual classes to help you improve your English, whether it's boosting your homework grades or improving your oral fluency. I'm a native English speaker and have experience teaching English in schools. Whatever your requirements are, let me know and I'll be ready to help; as a languages student myself, I understand your goals and am very sympathetic in helping you to achieve them at your own pace!

About Me
I pride myself on being as friendly and approachable as possible with my students. Personal relationships are hugely important to me, and the better the relationship between a student and a teacher, the easier it is to improve one's language skills whilst having fun and forgetting that you're in a class! I've studied French since I was 7 years old and have been exposed to a variety of teaching methods, both from native and non-native teachers. I recognise the importance of tailoring language classes to the needs and abilities of each specific student, so don't be shy! Tell me exactly what you want and I'll do my very best to help you achieve all of your English goals.
Education
I'm a current third-year student at the University of Oxford, reading for an undergraduate degree in Philosophy and French. I'm an academic scholar and passionate about languages.
Experience / Qualifications
I have just finished a three-month long placement at a collège near Lyon, in which I worked as an English language assistant for the British Council. My role involved helping students with all things English, from grammar to vocabulary and pronunciation, all while speaking as little French as possible.
