Experienced French Tutor | Personalised Lessons for GCSE, A-Level & Beginner Students of All Ages

Excellent tutor! Giovanni is personal, committed, and passionate about teaching Italian.

Giovanni has been my Italian tutor for two years. In this time he has helped improve my speaking confidence significantly. We have used a combination of more formal taught lessons with informal conversational sessions. I appreciate Giovanni’s patience with me in lessons and his flexibility when I’m not able to make a lesson due to work commitments. I strongly recommend Giovanni as a language tutor.

Giovanni has been our Italian tutor for 7 years, helping my daughter achieve a top mark in her GCSE and helping me with Italian conversation (he is very patient with me on the latter). He has been super helpful and would recommend. Most definitely flexible to style, level and ability.

I know Giovanni through the French lessons he has given my daughter over the past year. From the beginning, he created a supportive and encouraging environment that helped her feel much more confident speaking and writing in French.
What we appreciate most about Giovanni’s teaching methods is how patient, flexible, and responsive he is. He adapts lessons to my daughter’s needs and explains things clearly, making even difficult topics easier to understand. His positive approach kept her motivated and engaged, and the results have been excellent — she improved her French by two grades and, more importantly, gained real confidence in her abilities.
One experience that stands out was during the lead-up to her exams, when Giovanni was incredibly flexible with scheduling sessions and always quick to respond with help and feedback. His support made a huge difference to her preparation and helped reduce a lot of stress.
I would highly recommend Giovanni to any student looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and encouraging French tutor.

Giovanni has been my Italian tutor for six years, on a weekly basis we have covered all grammar aspects, and enjoy discussing different topics each week. Giovanni is very professional and explains in detail so I can easily understand. Our lessons are always on time, and a pleasure to do. My Italian has improved substantially and I now have more confidence when using the language in Italy. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Giovanni, and look forward to continuing our lessons.

Giovanni has been my Italian language tutor for six years. At my pace and through his patience he has both significantly improved my grammar and confidence and we have also engaged in many weekly interesting discussions from philosophy,film, politics and even gardening. I would highly recommend Giovanni to take a keen student from a basic to a more advanced level.

I’ve been taking Italian lessons with Giovanni for a few years now. And although I had a very basic grounding in Italian from my mother prior, my lessons with Giovanni have truly raised my level of confidence. The great thing I like about the way you learn with him is that there is absolutely no pressure. Whether you’re looking for intense advancement, improvement of your conversation and listening skills, or just a basic grasp of the fundamentals, look no further. Highly recommended.

Giovanni completely changed my experience with learning French. I had studied French when I was younger at school, but always found it quite challenging. Even so, it remained a language I had always wanted to properly learn and reconnect with, so I decided to refresh my knowledge — and that’s when I found Giovanni.

From the very beginning, he made me feel incredibly comfortable and truly reignited my passion for the language. He is extremely patient, engaging, and encouraging, which made a huge difference to my confidence. What I appreciated most was how he tailored each lesson to my specific needs and pace, making learning feel both enjoyable and achievable.

I would highly recommend Giovanni to anyone looking to learn or rediscover French in a supportive and motivating environment.
