I’m very happy with my learning experience with Sophie so far. She is reliable, professional, and patient. I especially appreciate that she speaks French for the majority of the lesson and in our communications, as it allows me to fully immerse myself in the language.
I would happily recommend Sophie as a tutor.
Loved learning French again with Sophie. I had some basic background from school and needed to speak it more for work. Found it very easy to work and coordinate with Sophie, she was flexible to my schedule and helped me progress immensely, adjusting to the type of learning most suited to me.
Would definitely recommend her as a great tutor.
Sophie is an excellent teacher of French. I find our lessons together enjoyable and interesting. Each lesson begins with conversation between us in French, before we go on to undertake more structured exercises in communication and grammar.
By mutual agreement, Sophie sets homework assignments which I can undertake in advance of the following lesson, and her feedback on my work is very helpful.
The Skype application is an ideal medium for the online lessons: the quality of the audio and video communication is very good, and it is easy to exchange and share resources to support the lesson and to aid further study. Most importantly, it allows me to have lessons with a native French speaker, which is very beneficial.
Sophie is a fully qualified and highly experienced French teacher. Sophie is highly professional.
Sophie is able to assess her students language level and teach at the right level for the student. Moreover, Sophie takes the time to listen to her students needs and provide bespoke language lessons.
In her lesson Sophie follows a proper method, she does a warmer at the beginning, then provides input in target language through engaging activities, and then then applies the new language through speaking activities and practice activities. She also provides homework and useful feedback.
Sophie is very flexible, everything is very easy and straight forward.
I would fully recommend Sophie as a teacher for all ages, levels and specialisms.
I'm very glad I chose Sophie as my tutor. I wanted someone who could be flexible to meet my specific goals. I also picked her because she's a tutor with plenty of experience but still young and using today's language and cultural norms.
I spend my life on Zoom but still wasn't sure how well learning a language would work. I'm very pleased at how the relationship has worked and how effective Sophie has made the learning.
What I really like about Sophie is that it's clear she has all of the "stock lessons" however it's she thinks about her clients and builds personalised lessons around topics and content that reflects their interests. She makes the lessons engaging, fun and challenging so I'm always making progress. Every lesson is different.
Our lessons are by Skype and Sophie has mastered it so it works seamlessly with conversation, audio clips, video clips providing the lesson content. She uses the chat to provide feedback, vocabulary, grammar and links to other resources. The chat also captures these so you don't need to take notes.
Excellent !
