Describe your arrangements for online tutoring.
I teach adults via Skype and email support. Before the start of the first lesson I send out a little questionnaire to find out about the language experience the student has. Payment by BACS before to each lesson or in case of students I am seeing face-to-face in cash.
Do you have a personal message for students?
Learning a foreign language should be fun and useful. And the easiest way to learn is to combine it with something that interests you. So when you book a lesson with me I want to know about your personal interests so I can incorporate these into our lessons.

Perfect! Helen tutored my children for 1 year in beginner German for my 11-year old and intermediate German for my 13-year old. Helen was flexible with lesson schedules and well prepared for lessons. For the beginner German lessons, Helen prepared engaging content outside the standard text book, such as Sesamstrasse clips and others.
I highly recommend Helen as an experienced and most personable tutor.Perfect! She makes the topic very engaging and is very patient teaching the more complex grammar.

I was taught by Helen for a few months before my A level exams and found her teaching really helpful, especially with my grammar. It was also really useful to be able to speak with a native German speaker, and I think this improved my speaking skills and vocab a lot. In the end I got an A* in my A level, which Helen's teaching definitely contributed to. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to improve their German!
I would definitely recommend Helen to anyone who needs help or is looking to improve their understanding of the language and speaking skills in German. Helen is a lovely person and i am really glad to have her as my tutor :)
Being tutored by Helen is very helpful to me especially as my school does not offer German as a GCSE. I learn a lot of German in each lesson and the lessons are great because I can practice my German skills with a native German speaker. I find the lessons with Helen extremely helpful and she is a wonderful tutor who will make the effort to help improve your knowledge of the language.
A year ago my son Sam was really struggling with his German GCSE and was failing his oral assessments. With Helen's help his grades have improved remarkably and he managed an 'A' for his final GCSE assessment. He has really enjoyed his lessons with Helen, his confidence has flourished and we are now hopeful that he will get a good grade for his GCSE in a few weeks time. I would highly recommend Helen to anyone looking for extra tuition and support for their German exams.
