ABOUT


Hello all! I'm Vicki a seasoned tutor, with 6 years experience and a First-Class Languages Degree from the University of Bath. Since graduating in July 2020, I moved out to Hong Kong, where I worked on a graduate scheme for a Not-for-Profit Educational Foundation. Following my experience in Hong Kong, I moved back to France to work in a Lycée in Alsace, where I worked closely with students of the French Baccalauréat across a variety of English Skills, from Business and Commerce, Laboratory work to Academic writing about Literature and Poetry.

Over the last 6 years I have been privileged enough to work with a variety of students, primarily at GCSE and Alevel, some of whom were a part of the The National Tutoring Programme (NTP). The NTP is a British Government initiative, carried out via MyTutor with the aim of providing high-quality tuition to more disadvantaged students.


Every summer I am lucky enough to join my students in celebrating fantastic results and university places on a wide variety of courses. My private students have never received less than a B at Alevel or an 8 at GCSE (so far), with some students improving by more than 3 grades over just 3 months of tuition!


Nonetheless I have also worked internationally with students of the French Baccalauréat, Hong Kong DSE and independent clients in Italy, Russia, Ukraine, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Mexico. This academic year will be no different, since the end of September I have relocated to Martinique to work in a College, where I shall be working closely with students of the French Brevet on their Academic English Skills and the cultivation of Emotionally Honest Spaces with English as the Medium of Instruction.

Tuition with Vicki is a professional, personable and experienced education service. Student involvement in the learning process and technique variation are at the centre of my tuition; to ensure fun and effective learning which successfully enhances my students' knowledge, proficiency and confidence. I encourage my students to think “outside the box”. My objective is to provide interesting, effective and inspiring tuition which will empower my students! 

Every student is different which is why I strive to address learning differences by creating uniquely personalised learning experiences for every student. If you have any educational needs, of which I ought to be aware do not hesitate in letting me know. I am confident that together we can build a trusting and enjoyable working relationship.
