Ruby Kremer

I am a 24 years old masters student at Kings College London and I am both a British and French national. I have a 1st class Bachelors Degree from the University of Manchester in Biochemistry with French. Furthermore I have over two years of professional experience in France, working entirely in French, in domains ranging from biological research laboratories and an environmental organisation, to hospitality. I also do occasional translation work for scientists and for people in the charity sector, which involves translation from English to French as well as from French to English. I have no formal experience teaching French, however I do have 18 months experience teaching English as a foreign language, a year of tutoring GCSE science, and experience working as a high school cover supply. I have a good knowledge of the French curriculum for ages 11 to 18, and I would be able to provide homework and coursework help, alongside tailored preparation for exams. More generally lessons may involve core topics that are being found difficult, such as grammar and spelling, however given my knowledge of French culture I would be eager to make lessons even more exciting by discussing wider cultural topics with students, for example about French history, films, traditions, and cuisine. My lessons will also help students to build confidence through conversational practice, improving their fluency and pronunciation.
