Personal Description: I live in Ascot and have been working for the past 2 years as an independent private tutor for French and German. I have a genuine passion for languages and I am committed to your language learning, whatever your current level might be.

Tutoring Experience: I am an experienced Modern Languages teacher. As Head of German at St Mary's School Ascot from 1993 to 2009 I taught pupils at all levels from beginners through to A2 and I now work as an independent tutor of French and German in the Ascot area. I offer individual or small-group tuition. Having prepared pupils for GCSE, AS and A2 examinations over a number of years I can advise on revision plans and target lessons to the specific areas which will help improve your examination results. I have been able to help tutees develop confidence in their language learning and taught them the skills they needed to achieve or in some cases exceed their target grades.

A recent tutee gave me the following feedback:

"No schools in my area could offer me the German A level course, so I spent the past year with one to one tuition, with Sue teaching me the entire AS level syllabus. Sue has totally built up my confidence within this language and always supported me, in and out of lessons; marking work for me even in her own time! I really cannot thank her enough for the brilliantly fun lessons and her constant encouragement. Thanks to Sue I have been encouraged to pursue my aspiration of taking German at a Degree level."

I also tutor adults in French and German for business and holiday purposes. The convenience of individual lessons definitely suits many people who cannot find the time to attend a group class. Please see my webpage **Web Address Removed** for further information.

Tutoring Approach: I aim to offer a relaxed but focused learning environment. I have a wide range of resources including individually designed worksheets, flashcards, reading and listening comprehension exercises and extracts from magazine and newspaper articles. Each lesson will be tailored to your individual learning needs and I will help you identify the language learning techniques which suit you best.

The following testimonial from the parent of one of my A2 tutees summarises the type of approach I try to offer each student:

"Sue helped our daughter to raise two grades from those she achieved at AS level to her final A level grade . She made the learning enjoyable but focused on what mattered and varied the content to keep each session stimulating . As well as broadening vocabulary our daughter grew in confidence to write and speak French and became an accomplished student.In the lead up to the exams she got excellent coaching tips from Sue to gain extra marks and it all paid off . We will happily use Sue again, she's a great teacher." (Andy Weston-Webb)
