About Paul

Bonjour !

My name's Paul. I am offering online French tutoring for all ages and levels.

I have over 9 years of teaching experience, working in higher education, language schools, a refugee camp, community settings, tutoring and running workshops.

I grew up and was educated in the UK; I have lived in France for 9 years. I have helped many students successfully achieve their educational goals: entrance exams, GCSEs, A Levels, university assessments.

I worked as a lecturer at the University Grenoble-Alpes (UGA), France. I taught language courses for postgraduate students of film studies, documentary (the Lussas programme), theatre, literature, and audiovisual and digital media at UGA’s Institute of Communication and Media (ICM). I also delivered language classes to undergraduate students across a range of subjects.

I specialise in film studies, the arts and French. I hold a MA with distinction in film studies from Goldsmiths, University of London. I also specialise in urban planning and architectural language. I collaborate with several French architectural agencies on professional and creative projects. And I'm working towards a Royal Town Planning Institute-accredited planning qualification at the University of Manchester.

My BA in French and German from UCL helped me to develop my understanding of the French language and translation, as well as French literature, cinema and history. I studied at the pioneering Université Paris 8 for a semester. I have worked as a translator (French into English) specialising in film and architecture. I apply TESL Canada and the CELTA training to our lessons too.

I draw on my knowledge of other languages in our lessons. I speak German and some Brazilian Portuguese and have knowledge of Russian, Irish and Welsh.

I'd love to hear from you. I offer an initial free lesson, so that we can talk more about your goals.

A bientôt, j'espère !

First, we'll talk through you and your goals. Do you want to learn French for school, work or pleasure? Are you looking for after-school help for your child or have you studied French before? Maybe you're a beginner or rusty, feeling nervous about (re)starting your French. Or are you a B2 learner, looking for more advanced support?

We all have diverse learning needs and stories. Our initial meeting will give us the opportunity to discuss your learning needs.

Our lessons will work as a creative space. My background in the arts helps us to play with the language effectively and with focus. Art resources, like drawing, painting and collage, are excellent resources for language learning and are a part of my method, as well as creative writing techniques.

For more advanced learners, I specialise in language for film studies, the arts and spatial planning/architecture. My experience as a university lecturer can orientate the academic direction of our lesson and provide a more advanced level of support.

My most important goal for our lessons is that you grow more confident communicating in French. We might spend only one hour per week together, so you or your child's confidence outside of our class really matters. To that end, we'll focus on a specific part of the language - a theme, structure or context, depending on your level and interests. We'll practise speaking, writing, reading and listening skills in this area. Drawing on my ESOL (English as a second language) training, I'll prioritise your voice. You putting the language to use is key.

We meet online with clear visuals and sound.
