About Barbara
I am a half-French and half-Italian young professional living in London. I have forever leaned more towards my French heritage, notably as I went to French primary and secondary school in London. My first 'breakthroughs' in French literature and poetry happened through my French grandmother who tutored me growing up as she had studied art, language, culture and history of France. I have grown up with an enriched knowledge via her academia and thinking. Furthermore, my enthusiasm for French literature and language was further expanded as I studied it in secondary school and obtained a Distinction mark at my exams. Covering plays of Jean Genet, novels by Albert Camus and poetry by Jacques Prévert was part of my incredibly cultivating programme during my time at school. At University, I have undertaken a unit covering the French New Wave in cinematography, once again fulfilling my cultural interest within French culture.

My teaching methodology is very much dependent on what the student wishes to accomplish and what their goals are at the end of a lesson. I teach French grammar for beginners level I help students perfect their French homework or 'rédactions' by introducing them to correct and sophisticated vocabulary I teach about specific topics in French culture or art (painting in Paris in the early 20th century, for example) However, my teaching content is very flexible and can be discussed with any student about what they wish to accomplish with these lessons

Perfect! I had an excellent lesson with Barbara. We went into a lot of depth and Barbara was very enthusiastic and we covered a lot. It was very helpful indeed and I will be booking another lesson with her. Many thanks Barbara!
Perfect! Barbara is an excellent teacher and an excelent professional. She is preparing our daughter for sitting an early A level French. Our daugher is moving fast with Barbara, she adjusted to Nika's pace instantly. Barbara is s an excellent and strickt teacher with a very effective, structured and teaching method, strongly & warmly recomended by us.
- Nika is a Croatian and English student with whom I have been working with since late august 2020. Together, we aim to deepen her grammatical knowledge as well as enriching her vocabulary in order for Nika to make use of sustained and correct language during her future years. Despite her young age, Nika has an impressive academic maturity worthy of a late secondary school student. Rigorous and attentive, Nika proves to have a sense of academic ambition during our lessons when she detects rapidly her mistakes but also while she expresses a will for progress with each and every exercise. Nika is a smart student, notably during translation tests from French to English, due to her multicultural heritage which is an enormous benefit for a young student. Her mastery of spoken French as well as her verbal pronunciation are excellent. Every sentence she expresses is filled with enthusiasm through her joy for learning, which establishes a pleasant ambience during our lessons. Moreover, her progress from lesson to lesson increases vertiginously, which convinces me Nika will succeed perfectly when it will come to passing her exams. She is a serious student that takes responsibility for her actions and completes her homework attentively with no complaints. During our time together, Nika has presented a serious and meticulous behavior and I am eager to witness her academic accomplishments.Barbara's response :
