Emma specialises in teaching French to children from the age of 7. On top of her specialization, she also teaches adults of any level, beginners, intermediate and advanced. She can help you with any exams, such as DELF, DALF, GCSE or A level.
Before working with us, she was a tutor in France and in England to children aged 7 to 14 years old. On top of that, she has also tutored adults of any level, from beginners to advanced.
Emma is a patient, personable and reliable person. She is also smiley and sociable. She really enjoys interactions with people, she is curious and loves sharing and learning new things.

She believes a good teacher should be calm, patient, able to adapt to different learning styles and encouraging. On top of French, she also speaks English and has learned it at school.
Every lesson follows the Structured French methodology that we have refined over more than a decade. Rather than relying on improvised conversations or disconnected exercises, our curriculum follows a carefully designed progression where vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation and conversation develop together. Each lesson is supported by our collection of twelve books, ensuring every student benefits from the same structured learning experience.

We had the pleasure to teach French to university lecturers, researchers and doctors, and people working in the cinema, the music, and the media industry such as tv producers, journalists, or musicians. We have as well taught French to business owners, to CEOs, and to members of the European Parliament. Moreover, we have delivered in-company lessons, for English companies working with French ones and, to people working for French companies. Some of them are:
