Who Teaches French

Our French teachers are experienced Cambridge, Edexcel and IB Language B specialists who teach the language in the context of exam requirements — not just conversational ability. They know exactly how each board assesses all four skills.

What We Focus On

French marks are lost to grammatical errors under pressure, writing that falls below the required register, and oral responses that are correct but not fluent enough for the higher mark bands. We target each of these specifically.

What Makes It Work

Sessions combine structured grammar work, directed writing practice, and oral preparation in a format that directly mirrors the exam. Every piece of writing is corrected with explanations — not just markings — so mistakes are understood and not repeated.

French intake is limited per exam cycle so each student receives proper attention and consistent teacher support throughout.

Every Board. Every Level.
Every French Specification.

Whether your child is on Cambridge, Edexcel or IB — at IGCSE, A-Level or Diploma — we match them with a teacher who knows that exact specification and assessment structure.

Why French Students Are Better
Than Their Exam Results Suggest

My child can speak French reasonably well but makes consistent grammatical errors in writing — tense confusion, gender agreement, subjunctive usage — that cost marks on every paper.
My child can speak French reasonably well but makes consistent grammatical errors in writing — tense confusion, gender agreement, subjunctive usage — that cost marks on every paper.
The oral exam feels unpredictable. My child cannot prepare effectively because they do not know what to say or how to structure spoken responses at the level the examiner expects.
Writing in French under time pressure is different from writing at home with a dictionary. My child writes well when relaxed but loses control of grammar and vocabulary under exam conditions.
IB French Language B Paper 2 requires writing in specific text types — formal letters, essays, reports. My child is not familiar with the conventions of each type and loses structure marks consistently.

French Exam Marks Improve
When Errors Are Corrected Consistently

Most French students make the same grammatical errors repeatedly because they have never been explicitly corrected and taught why the correct form is different. Consistent correction with explanation changes this.

❌ Starting Late

My child writes 'je suis allé' correctly one week and 'j'ai allé' the next. They have been told it is wrong multiple times. But nobody has explained the underlying rule for être versus avoir verbs clearly enough that it has actually stuck.

✅ The Velocity Approach

We teach the rules explicitly and return to them in every session until they are internalised. Grammar is not corrected once and moved on from — it is revisited until the correct form is automatic. This takes time, but it works.

Why Early Starters Do Better
📅
Time to Build ProperlyStructured preparation over months means every topic is covered, tested, and genuinely understood before the exam.
📝
Exam Technique EmbeddedMark scheme requirements, examiner language, and question formats take time to internalise. They cannot be rushed.
📊
Past Papers With ContextPast papers only build confidence when the syllabus is already understood. Early starters get far more from every paper.
The students who arrive at French exams calmly are almost always the ones who started months before their peers.

The Velocity French
Preparation Framework

A structured four-stage system — from diagnostic assessment to full exam readiness.

Your child is matched with a teacher who specialises in their exact board — Cambridge, Edexcel or IB — and knows the mark scheme and assessment structure.

03

Structured Weekly Progress

Topics covered one at a time with homework, practice questions, and short tests. Monthly reports keep parents fully informed at every stage.

04

Exam Readiness

Timed past papers, mark scheme analysis, common error elimination, and a final revision strategy. By exam day, the student is prepared — not still learning.
