Séverine is a respected tutor in our community. She is highly recommended for her commitment and the quality of her lessons. An excellent choice to progress with confidence.
About Séverine
I offer face-to-face and online lessons inspired by my professional and personal experience gained across both France and English-speaking countries.
- ESOL English for Speakers of Other Languages (exam preparation, business English, academic support, conversation)
- French (conversation, French for traveling, business French, academic support, exam preparation)
- Tutoring possible for other subjects up to year 9
My teaching approach is based above all on building confidence and tailoring lessons to each individual student. Together, we create a program that reflects your needs, interests, and goals.
After each lesson, I provide my students with detailed notes, as well as additional resources, links, and activities to support their learning.
The focus is placed on communication and on learning grammar in real-life contexts.

As a qualified primary school teacher in France and a preschool teacher in England and New Zealand, I have taught both English and French to children aged 2 to 12.
As an English as a Second Language (ESOL) and French trainer in Asia, Europe and New Zealand, I have taught students ranging from 6 to 60 years old. This has included tutoring, corporate training, university teaching, exam preparation, workshops, as well as general English and French conversation classes.
I also provide private English and French lessons online.
In addition, I have held a variety of administrative and government-related roles in England, New Zealand, and France. These experiences have given me a broad understanding of the professional world that extends beyond the field of education.

Bonjour, Hi,
We have known Séverine for 8 years when she was still living in Lyon, France, and she has supported our daughter remarkably both in terms of her human and technical qualities, with her rigor, follow-up, and very good technical level in English.
Thank you very much for the follow-up during middle school and high school in preparatory class; our daughter is almost bilingual in English; we recommend Séverine 100%. She is a beautiful person.

PierreSéverine is an outstanding teacher : pedagogical, patient, and highly professional. She designed a structured approach covering multiple aspects, which allowed me to make consistent and noticeable progress.
One of the most valuable outcomes of working with her has been the confidence I gained in spoken communication. She creates a supportive environment where you feel comfortable making mistakes and improving at your own pace.
If you're looking for a teacher who genuinely invests in your progress, Séverine is the one.J'ai suivi des cours en français avec Séverine pendant longtemps et je peux dire avec certitude qu’elle est absolument super ! Elle est toujours très bien préparée et les leçons sont adaptées à votre niveau. Elle vous pousse à vous améliorer, mais sans trop de pression. Que vous souhaitiez apprendre à parler, lire, ou écrire, elle peut vous aider à atteindre vos objectifs.
Séverine is a caring teacher who makes sure to offer lessons aligned with each student’s goals (TOEIC, etc.).
The exercises she provides match the student’s level and gradually increase in difficulty.
Her work on grammar, vocabulary, and speaking—on both common topics and more specific ones depending on your needs—is extremely valuable. New elements are systematically reviewed from one lesson to the next and regularly throughout the month.
Séverine offers many alternative ways to express sentences we wouldn’t know how to formulate in English.
I have made great progress with her!View more recommendations
