About Katie-Rose

I graduated with a First Class Honours degree in French and Spanish from King's College London in 2023, and I am now studying for an MA in French language, literature, and culture and preparing for a PhD in this field. During my year abroad I spent a semester in Paris, studying literature at the Sorbonne, and I am fluent in the language (level C2).

I have grown to love French more and more since leaving school, but I know all too well how GCSE and A-Level syllabi let students down and put them off studying languages. I would supplement tutees' learning by putting tedious grammar tables into more engaging and accessible contexts, and by developing their conversational skills beyond the often uninspiring modules of the textbook.

Even if there isn't a passion for the subject waiting to be nurtured, and you just need some help getting to grips with tenses and vocab, that's fine too! Language learning requires cognitive and logical competencies that can help you in other subjects, and indeed in other areas of life. I can show you ways to understand the answers to your grammatical and lexical queries, rather than just memorising them.

I would be excited to share my knowledge and love for the French language, and I hope I can help you become more confident and enthusiastic speakers!

I will tailor my tutoring sessions to the individual needs of the student by starting off with a conversation in the target language to determine the their strengths and weaknesses. For GCSE and A-Level students in particuar, it will be necessary to take the syllabus into account; however, I will be very keen to incorporate other elements of the French-speaking world into my tutoring as to broaden the student's understanding of the language and make their learning experience more interesting.

Details

I would be able to travel for in-person lessons at the student's home, so long as you live on the Metropolitan line on TfL or on the Aylesbury-London Marylebone Chiltern Railway line, as I do not have a car. I have factored my average travel costs into my in-person rate; I would run remote lessons from my home.

I already have a very useful textbook of French grammar for students whose first language is English, but I do not have copies of any current course textbooks. If the student would prefer to work from their textbook, I will obtain a copy once we have agreed to pursue regular sessions.

I offer an initial session of up to 60 minutes for free. I will start by speaking to the student in English, so we can get to know each other comfortably and I can find out what they've been struggling with. I will then ask them to speak with me in French: this might be nerve-wracking for some students who feel uncomfortable speaking in French, but the conversation doesn't necessarily need to be longer than a few minutes! I just want to hear for myself where we can make some improvements. Finally, I will share these reflections and invite them to ask any questions. After the session, I will send over a document with more refined feedback, key targets, and a detailed plan for future sessions, if we agree to move forward.
