About French Tutoring

(verified reviews)

Home: Testimonials

Catherine is wonderful French tutor and most reliable and organised in her work. She was doing GCSE French practice for us with a bit reluctant pupil and managed to light up the spark of desire to do well and engage with the subject and that is invaluable. Homework / mock test marks went from 6/7 to 8+. We are most impressed.
