Modern Foreign Languages Tutors : 1-1 Modern Foreign Languages Preparation

Hi there! My name is Grace and I have just finished a French Literature MSt at Keble College, Oxford, for which I received a Distinction. I also completed
a History and French BA for my undergraduate at Somerville College, Oxford and got a First Class. I’ve been tutoring for several years now so I have lots of experience, and I really enjoy being able to help students wherever I can. I’ve always put my academic studies first, and I know how important it is to do your best in exams; I find it extremely rewarding when I can help students to achieve this. Having got all A*s in GCSE and A-Level, and successfully passed through Oxford’s rigorous admissions process, I know first-hand what is required to do well at all of these stages. I also really enjoy teaching students and hope that my enthusiasm will make their sessions enjoyable – I’ve always seen myself becoming a teacher, and my career plan is to become a university lecturer!

I currently work in a school environment, so I’m DBS checked and safeguarding trained.

I am currently a third year studying Japanese at the University of Oxford. I have just returned from my year abroad in Kobe where I spent a year taking language classes and lectures in Kobe University’s Faculty of Letters.

While on my year abroad I wrote a thesis titled Freedom in Press and Defamation in Japan: A Case-Study on the Former Unification Church”. I presented that thesis at the end of my course to the University Board and the Faculty of Letters. Prior to this I separately presented within the faculty on “Reclaimed Land in Kobe: The history and impact of man-made islands in a port city”.

I am interested in Japanese current affairs and literature. In my final two years at Oxford I will be studying a variety of subjects including: Classical Japanese Literature, Classical Japanese, and Modern History.

Outside of university I enjoy Karate, which I have been doing for 16 years.

Hi! I’m Steph – I have just finished my second year studying chemistry at Oxford University. Having gone to Oxford from a state comprehensive background I recognise the importance of a good education and would love to help inspire as many students as possible to do as well as they can in exams, whilst also fostering a sense of passion and interest in their subject.

I have previously tutored French A-level as well as maths and chemistry at GCSE level, in addition to this, I have helped students from my secondary school attain Oxbridge offers as well as reviewing personal statements which have also gone on to lead to successful applications.

I achieved the highest GCSE and A-Level results in my year and school as well as attaining awards for the best performance in Chemistry and French A-Level, this paired with my previous tutoring experience, I believe, leads to effective tutoring that is also engaging and interesting which is the key to success!

I am a 4th year university student currently studying in Bristol. I am studying Politics and French with the hope to work in the Civil Service or for a NGO. I have just finished my year abroad in Lyon, France where I studied at Université Jean Moulin III for one semester and then worked as an English teaching assistant for the second semester. My year in France not only drastically improved my level of French, but I equally gained valuable skills in the teaching field.
In my spare time I enjoy going on runs and walks to take time out of the busy student life.
Overall, I know how much hard work it takes to attain the grades one dreams of and I would love to help students be successful.
Therefore, I’m passionate about helping people achieve their goals and being able to reach their full potential!
