Does your child lack confidence or need help with their French GCSE? Have you always wanted to improve your French in a fun, relaxed environment? Ever wondered if there is such a thing as being able to learn French alongside your children, as a fun, family activity? Do you run a nursery and are you looking for that extra, “je ne sais quoi” offering? Then look no further, as I am here to help with listening, reading, writing and speaking skills for all.
My name is Sam and I have over 30 years’ experience speaking, translating and interpreting French in a business environment.
Over the past 10 years I have been running French afterschool and holiday clubs within the BCP conurbation, but I am now looking to expand my offering with 1-2-1/family/homeschooling tuition and nurseries.
I have a full clean driving licence and hold an enhanced DBS certificate, as well as experience working with SEN children. I can come to you, host in my home, or even via Zoom. Prices start at £18/hour.

Have you always wanted to improve your French in a fun and relaxed environment? Does your child need help with their listening, reading, writing and speaking skills for French GCSE? Ever wondered if there is such a thing as being able to learn French at the same time as your children in a small family setting? Then look no further, as I am here to help.
My name is Sam and I have over 30 years' experience speaking French within a business environment, having worked and interpreted in local industry (gas detection, bloodstock and telecoms). After having a family, I started running French Afterschool Language Clubs, which I am still enjoying, but I am now ready to expand my offering, with 1-2-1/family tutoring/home schooling and nurseries.
I have a full, clean driving licence and hold an enhanced DBS certificate and have experience working with children with SEN. I can come to you, or host at my house on Boscombe Overcliff or even via Zoom. Prices from £15/hour.
