Are you in need of an experienced enthusiastic and patient tutor? I tutor in German and French at all levels including beginners' English as a Foreign Language. I graduated with an MA Degree in German and French from Glasgow University, and have been awarded a certificate for TEFL. Where:
I can teach either in Barrhead at my house, or at the pupils home. Sometimes it might be preferred to meet in
cafes/libraries. I can also travel to most areas of Glasgow, Paisley and parts of Ayrshire that are within a radius of 15 miles from Barrhead. When:
I'm available to tutor any time, evening, day or week - Other bookings permitting of course! Who:
I've had experience teaching young children from the age of 3 years old (a perfect age to start - using games and songs), through primary to senior school with Intermediate/ Standard Grades, Highers and Advanced. Despite having no knowledge of Braille, I have been tutoring a blind girl in French right through upper primary school and secondary. She recently gained an 'A' grade in her Higher and is continuing with me to prepare for her Advanced Higher. I can also teach university language students and adults who wish to learn a language for careers, leisure or moving/ travelling abroad. Cost:
I charge an hourly rate of £25/hour if the pupil comes to me, however, if required to travel to the pupil's house I charge an additional £2 - £5 depending on the distance. A reduced rate is available for 10 week "block bookings" or if 2 hour lessons are booked at a time. Student Exams:
Intermediate/Standard Grades; Highers; Advanced Highers and University Exams. In-house language tuition for employees:
I am happy to visit your premises to discuss this and give you a quotation. You will find my rates much more reasonable than the big language schools.
*Note to parents considering tuition for children soon to be sitting certificate exams:
Please try to organise tuition as early in the school year as possible. As expert and dedicated as I am, I can't work miracles in only a few weeks before the exams! I have an up-to-date CRB (Criminal Records Bureau) disclosure certificate.
