From Emma (/5): (University French) Gerald gave me grinds for University French. He provided me with invaluable study material and worked with me to develop an approach to grinds that worked best for me. As well as helping me to improve my confidence with speaking oral french, he also explained intricate grammar rules in a simplified way which made them far easier to learn/understand. I found him extremely professional, reliable and patient. I would highly recommend Gerald to anyone looking for any level of French grinds, university or otherwise.
