I like to teach in an interactive way, with a strong focus on helping students actually remember what they learn rather than just memorising things for a short time. One of the ways I do this is through regular recap and retrieval. Each week we go over not just the previous lesson’s content, but also key topics from earlier on. This helps students build strong long-term memory and means they’re constantly revisiting important material. By doing this consistently, students are much less likely to feel like they need to cram everything right before an exam.

I also like students to take an active role in their own revision. A technique I often use is asking them to create their own mini revision packs as if they were explaining the topic to someone else. This encourages them to think carefully about what the most important concepts, vocabulary, and grammar points are, while also practising how to present information clearly and concisely. It’s a great way to reinforce their understanding and build useful exam skills at the same time.

I also think enthusiasm and energy make a big difference in the classroom. When lessons feel positive and engaging, students tend to feel more confident participating and trying things out, even if they make mistakes along the way. I try to bring that energy into my teaching so that learning feels enjoyable and supportive rather than stressful.

I’m able to teach GCSE and A Level French across all exam boards, and I tailor lessons to suit each student’s goals, level, and learning style.
