Tutoring Experience

I have been tutoring English, French, and German for IGCSE, A-Level, and IB students for over 7 years. My approach is student-centered, focusing on the individual needs and learning styles of each student. I incorporate a mix of traditional and modern teaching methods, including the use of multimedia resources to enhance the learning experience.

One of my most rewarding experiences was helping a student who struggled with French achieve top marks in her IB exams. I provided her with personalized study plans, weekly assessments, and targeted feedback, which significantly boosted her confidence and performance. My experience also includes preparing students for university language entrance exams and supporting bilingual students.
