Nicoletta
Qualified French & Spanish Teacher | Small Group Specialist
About
Hi. 👋 I'm Nicoletta, a qualified French and Spanish teacher and former Head of Spanish. After 8 fantastic years of teaching in both state and independent boarding schools in the UK, I've recently gone self-employed and have started my own tuition business. I now teach exclusively online, offering weekly, small group sessions for KS3, GCSE, and A-Level students for either French or Spanish.
I cater for students who need structured, expert-led support rather than generic tutoring. My sessions are carefully planned, exam-aware and designed to help students make real progress in confidence, accuracy and independence.
My teaching is built around three key pillars:
Appropriate challenge with targeted support
Students are stretched at the right level, with clear guidance to help them improve.Clear scaffolding to ensure success
Complex skills are broken down so students know exactly how to approach them.Energetic, engaging and enjoyable lessons
Lessons are varied, fast-paced and designed to keep students actively involved.
What makes my approach stand out is the combination of expert teaching and genuine energy. I know how to explain difficult grammar clearly, how to prepare students for exams properly and how to keep lessons engaging so students actually want to take part.
Every student has access to a shared OneNote system, weekly homework and written feedback, so there is structure, accountability and continuity beyond the live lesson.
