Tutor Profile

Adam

Personalised language tuition from a qualified teacher

Hello! I’m Adam, a qualified and experienced language teacher offering personalised online tuition in French, Spanish, German, Italian, Arabic and English as a Foreign Language.

I hold a BA in European and Middle Eastern Languages from the University of Oxford, a PGCE in Modern Foreign Languages and an MA in Education.

I offer tuition tailored to each student’s individual needs, whether you’re preparing for exams, building confidence in speaking a foreign language or developing your language skills for personal interest.

I offer a free introductory lesson so we can get to know each other, discuss your goals and see whether my teaching is right for you.

Teaching Experience

I am a qualified Modern Foreign Languages teacher with extensive experience teaching languages in secondary schools, including working as a Head of Department.

I have taught students of different ages and abilities, from beginners to A-level students, and have experience supporting learners with a wide range of educational needs.

My teaching experience includes curriculum development, examination preparation and helping students develop the confidence and skills they need to succeed.

I now offer online tuition in French and Spanish up to A-level, German, Italian and Arabic up to beginner’s level, and advanced English as a Foreign Language.

Tutoring Approach

I believe that confidence is at the heart of successful language learning. My lessons are friendly, supportive and tailored to each student’s individual needs and goals.

I focus on building a strong foundation in grammar and vocabulary while developing the practical skills needed to communicate effectively. Whether you’re preparing for exams, improving your spoken language or learning for pleasure, I’ll adapt my teaching to help you make steady progress.

I aim to create a relaxed environment where you feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes and developing your confidence. My goal is not just to help you achieve your immediate objectives but also to equip you with the skills and self-belief to continue learning independently.

Adam was an excellent tutor. The first lesson was well paced, and had a lot of information given, with new vocabulary and tips thrown in. I'll be arranging another class, soon, once my work load has settled down. Many thanks, Mauren

It has been a pleasure being tutored by Adam. He is been a good Arabic tutor and i'm confident that I will be able to retain the majority of what we covered in our classes together. I'm sure that we will stay in contact and I would recommended him to anyone who needs a language tutor - it was clear from our discussions that he not only passionate about language, but that he is passionate about sharing his knowledge. The lessons weren't simply drills or work by rote, they were fully interactive and I was given plenty of chances to talk about all sorts of fascinating topics during the course of the lessons while still keeping to the original target of giving me a beginner knowledge of Arabic.

We have been delighted with Adam's work and approach. He is clearly highly intelligent and talented in his subject, but he is also able to combine this with a lovely sense of humour and a grounded approach. He promptly assessed my daughters ability and knowledge gaps and has worked hard to improve her knowledge and confidence. The fact that he is currently teaching the same syllabus was also a great advantage. I would confidently recommend him to others as a most professional and kind tutor.
