*VCE FRENCH & LITERATURE TUTORING*
Hi there!
My name is Katia and I am currently a Year 11 student at Girton Grammar School. My best (and favourite!) subjects include French, Literature, and General Maths, with average results of +90%. I have a special interest in tutoring for French and Literature.
As a tutor, my aim is not only to help students excel in their desired subjects, but also to help them develop a love of learning through an interactive and friendly approach. I am kind, patient, dedicated and eager to motivate students. In my opinion, success stems from two things: diligent dedication to one's studies in order to build a strong foundation of key concepts and knowledge, but equally an appreciation of the subject which allows for a more profound engagement with the material.
In terms of French, I am able to provide the following for years 7-11.
✅breaking down grammar concepts together
✅perfecting pronunciation & accent
✅achieving reading proficiency
✅advancing speaking capabilities (fluency)
✅insights, tips and strategies for VCE
Being especially passionate for the language, I have a great interest in guiding and helping students in their French studies. I am here to ensure students are confident in their knowledge of French as they progress through their schooling journey. In my experience, the years leading up to VCE are especially crucial for establishing a solid foundation of knowledge regarding the material (and even going above and beyond if desired!).
Literature also remains a great passion of mine! Having studied in depth a variety of text styles such as poetry, novels, plays and short stories (from writers including William Shakespeare, Jane Austen, Mary Shelley, Sylvia Plath, John Donne, etc.) I have a firm grasp of the intricacies of Literature. I can provide
✅aid with thorough analysis of texts
✅guidance on how to craft strong and engaging essays
✅resources for literary techniques
✅active feedback
✅open discussions to build upon and develop idea
✅insight into VCE
My sessions will be online only via zoom for the time being.
I offer 1hr sessions (however I am open to discussing shorter/longer sessions if necessary).
*If you are unsure, no worries! I also offer a FREE 45min trial lesson*
Looking forward to meeting you and helping you reach your fullest potential whilst enjoying the journey!
