About Joanna
I have loved learning languages since I was 11, and that passion has shaped my entire teaching career. I bring a deep understanding of how languages work and how students learn them. I believe that clear, succinct explanations in English often give learners the confidence they need before applying the language themselves, and many families value this balanced, accessible approach. I’m enthusiastic, warm and highly organised, and I take pride in creating a supportive atmosphere where students feel comfortable asking questions and celebrating their progress. Because I speak several languages, I’m an expert in the process of studying them, and I use that insight to guide students through revision, skill-building and exam preparation. I genuinely love seeing that moment when a student suddenly gets it — whether it’s a tricky Spanish tense, a French phrase, or a whole topic finally clicking.

My lessons are designed for 11–16 year olds studying French at Key Stage 3 or GCSE. As a French and Russian graduate and qualified teacher who has taught since 2017, I bring extensive experience from leading multiple GCSE classes and five years of one-to-one tutoring with Years 9, 10 and 11. Each one hour online session uses dynamic PowerPoints, questioning/quizzing, clear explanations and targeted drilling of vocabulary and grammar to build confidence and mastery. I teach exam strategies, practise all four skills: listening, reading, writing and speaking and cover every topic in depth. My approach is enthusiastic, warm and creative, helping students feel supported while making rapid, measurable progress.

Joanna is an incredible tutor, with excellent subject knowledge. I decided to take a Spanish GCSE as a mature student and needed a tutor. I was so lucky to have found Joanna, her personality makes for really engaging lessons and she explains things clearly and in an engaging way. She is always well prepared and is excellent at what she does. I'd recommend to anyone looking to brush up or study from scratch, or any parents looking for a tutor for their children. Really lucky to have found such an inspiring and supportive tutor.
Joanna is very passionate when it comes to languages and also knowing a variety of them. Whether you want to learn or improve Spanish as an adult or pupil, Joanna is very enthusiastic, engaging and also very thorough. She will keep you interested in the subject and is very understanding. As a slow learner I don't feel “embarrassed” and can be comfortable learning from Joanna.
Amazing! Joanna has been helping my daughter prepare for her Spanish GCSE's and working with Joanna has really improved her confidence in all aspects - reading, writing, listening and even speaking! My daughter previously dreaded her school lessons and was overwhelmed with everything being in the target language. Joanna made the lessons fun and suited her interests to help her connect with the subject better and made it much more accessible for her. Joanna is very well prepared, very familiar with the curriculum and the lessons have made a huge impact. It's been amazing to see the progress and to watch Spanish fast become a favourite subject and she is now even talking about doing it at A Level! I would highly recommend
Joanna is my daughter. I actually advised her to become a teacher because not only is she a very skilled academic but she is warm kind and funny too. I've witnessed her teaching first hand and noted how she was patient and understanding, simplifying problems until they were finally understood I think she will be help any student to achieve their goal
