Anya Bailin-Saunders

My lessons are designed to be engaging, supportive, and tailored to each student's individual goals and learning style. Whether you're a beginner starting from scratch or an advanced learner looking to improve fluency, I create lessons that focus on practical communication, grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, and cultural understanding. Having lived in France and with valuable experience in bilingual interpreting, I bring authentic language experience and cultural knowledge to my teaching.

I offer personalised lesson plans based on each student's level and preferred learning approach, ensuring each student is able to reach their goals.

Lessons will include conversation practice, structured grammar exercises, exam preparation, reading comprehension and listening activities, and fun interactive tasks to build confidence. For those looking to improve their conversational French, we will cover a range of different themes, to enable each student to feel prepared to use their language skills in varied situations.

I particularly aim to create a relaxed learning environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes and developing their French skills at their own pace. Language learning can be daunting, and so for me it's all about approaching this in a way that suits each individual.

Additionally, I offer curated essay writing support, for a range of students from GCSE up to A-Level. My goal is to help students develop their written expression, structure arguments effectively, improve grammar and style, and build confidence in academic writing. I also incorporate regular progress reviews and practical goal-setting, helping students track improvement, stay motivated, and develop lasting confidence in their abilities
