Excellent tutor
Barbara has been an excellent help with Nat 5 French for both my children. She has been really helpful preparing for exams with an excellent knowledge of what’s required by SQA. She has a flexible approach that adapts to suit the student’s needs. Highly recommend.
Excellent tutor
Barbara got my daughter's grade up from unclassified in her prelim to an A in her final Nat 5 exam. She tutored my son as well, who also finished with an A in Nat 5 French. She gave great tips on how to play the exam game, but more importantly, both son and daughter continue to speak French when they are in France. Being confident to try and speak is what I am most grateful for. Thank you Barbara.
Excellent
We met Barbara in early March 2024 after a poor Nat5 prelim result for my daughter and poor support from the class teacher. Barbara gave my daughter huge confidence and it made all the difference getting her from a fail to a B grade. Thanks Barbara.
Merci Barbara!
Barbara tutored my daughter in the 3-months leading up to the Higher French exam this year. Barbara has an excellent understanding of SQA curriculum so can readily identify knowledge, skills and confidence gaps and then develop a plan and approach that is tailored to the individual's needs. My daughter enjoyed her sessions with Barbara and in that 3 months Barbara massively helped her consolidate the key knowledge and techniques needed as well as her gain confidence in her abilities ahead of the exam. The end result was a very high B grade pass. Merci beacoup Barbara!
