I have been learning Spanish with Caroline for the past year and she has been fantastic. I am 27 and we have been doing business Spanish for my job. The sessions have been tailored very specifically to what I need and want to learn for business trips. Caroline is fun and easy going, which makes the sessions fly by and can adapt her teaching technique to how I learn, which works really well. I can’t recommend her enough for anyone wanting to learn a language for their job or travel.

Caroline provided tutoring for my son in the run up to his A level. We found her to be inspirational. Her knowledge of the curriculum is excellent and she taught by empowering my son to believe in his abilities. I felt that Caroline's motives for tutoring are her love of the language and the desire to get the best out of every child.

Thoroughly enjoying my lessons with Caroline - she is very encouraging and makes the lessons fun and varied. Would recommend to anyone who, like me, wants to brush the rust off their fairly basic French!

Fluent in both French and Spanish, Caroline has a creative flair for languages and teaches in an enthusiastic, playful and caring way! The needs of the learner are always her first consideration. Whether it's French or Spanish, Caroline's love of languages shines through in all her teaching.

Caroline is a wonderful teacher. As a returner to French, after O Levels too many years ago, I was very nervous about starting again, but I needn’t have been. Her friendly and sympathetic attitude meant that I was immediately made to feel confident and happy to respond to the linguistic challenges she sets.
Her lessons are carefully planned and the study schedule is usefully sent out a couple of days before our weekly lesson - she has seamlessly adapted her lessons to the Zoom classroom. I was quickly engaged in a series of related questions on both simple topics (everyday exchanges such as, “How are you?, “what have you done today”) , to much more challenging issues such as domestic or international news, pandemics or poverty!
Her enthusiastic, friendly styles makes me seek out French TV news and newspapers, look up difficult words and then relish the challenge of weaving these into a sentence when later responding in class.
I know my French language skills have grown significantly over the three months; and after Caroline’s efforts I can't wait to put them to the test on our trip to Geneva next month!

Caroline provided extra tuition for both of my children during their respective GCSE years. The relaxed teaching style and standard of tuition was excellent and both of my children benefitted greatly. I would unequivocally and wholeheartedly recommend her services.

Caroline is an excellent tutor. My niece had the benefit of lessons to assist with her GCSE French. We found Caroline to be an expert in the language, very well organised, and enthusiastic and encouraging in her teaching style. She also had an in-depth knowledge of the syllabus and exam board and was able to provide invaluable tips as to how to achieve a good mark. My niece enjoyed the lessons and progressed quickly in areas in which she had previously struggled, ultimately achieving an A* grade.

Caroline is a wonderful teacher who is full of fun and engaging ideas which really motivate students to learn languages. Caroline always goes above and beyond when giving individual support to students and she really boosts their confidence. Caroline will make an ideal private tutor due to this.
Caroline can teach students of all ages. She has a fantastic rapport with younger children and she is an expert at teaching Spanish A level.
For any student who wishes to improve their speaking skills or grammatical knowledge in French or Spanish, Caroline is the ideal person to contact. Whatever you need in foreign language learning, Caroline will be able to meet your requirements.

I very strongly recommend Caroline as a language tutor! I had been struggling with French A-Level, particularly during lockdown & online learning, but once I’d started lessons with Caroline my confidence & grade picked up significantly. She was a lovely teacher, very friendly, supportive, and patient. I am a shy person and where I wasn’t comfortable asking questions in school, Caroline made me feel comfortable asking anything. I had lessons with her for around 6 months up until my exams and ended up getting my predicted grade, which I couldn’t have done without her. Thank you!!
