About Simeon

I have a First in French and Art History from UCL and a PhD in contemporary French art and theory from the Courtauld Institute of Art. I hold Qualified Teacher Status and a PGCE (the two standard secondary school teaching qualifications) in MFL (French & Spanish) and have taught languages in the secondary school classroom (French yrs 7-11). I love to teach languages because they bring access to cultural understanding and also help pupils to think and work in more abstract ways with plenty of opportunities for those whose learning styles are more oral, verbal or visual. I have also taught university students studying Art History and Visual Culture as well as students of applied disciplines in what are sometimes called 'Contextual Studies' in the UK and USA since 1997. I can help with research skills, expression of visual thinking, with the construction and defence of historical arguments or arguments pertaining to value, critical and analytical writing and with the articulation of all ideas in appropriate, academic language. I have also worked as a graphic designer - mostly making books for use in education and exhibition catalogues for art galleries.

French teacher. I am happy to work with you to improve fluency, accuracy, exam technique, conversational or business French.

If you need help preparing for exams I am here for you.

Depending on your goal, I want to build confidence producing language. That means we need to figure out how you might really want to use your French. Do you need to be able to order a meal or a train ticket? Do you need to talk about your family with a friend of exchange family? Would you like to know how to follow a recipe shared by a French friend who makes something amazing? Or are you just trying to earn as many marks as possible at GCSE? 

Once we know what you need we can plan short, relevant lessons that help you get confident doing the task at hand and encourage you to use what you know more widely. No one finds learning lists of vocabulary meaningful or memorable. Putting things into context and using your knowledge meaningfully is what makes it stick...

I am happy to offer 2 half hour sessions rather than pushing on for an hour. Languages are best learned in short, frequent doses.
