About Henrietta
I am a bilingual French speaker who grew up speaking French at home, with family roots in the Democratic Republic of Congo and close family ties in France and Belgium. French has always been an integral part of my daily life, and this lifelong immersion allows me to teach it with authenticity, cultural insight, and confidence.
I achieved a H1 in my French Leaving Certificate exam, earning full marks in both the oral and aural components. Alongside my language background, I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology and am currently a medical student. I have completed clinical placements and internships in France, giving me real-world experience using French in professional, academic, and everyday settings. My psychology training has also shaped the way I teach: I understand how students learn, how to build confidence, how to reduce exam stress, and how to tailor lessons to each individual’s cognitive and emotional needs.
I want to teach French because the language has shaped so much of my own life, and sharing it feels natural and meaningful to me. I’ve seen firsthand how learning a new language can open doors, build confidence, and even change the way someone sees the world. Helping students experience that transformation is something I genuinely enjoy. When a student has a breakthrough, it reminds me why I teach. It’s rewarding to know that I can support someone’s growth, not just academically but personally, through a subject I truly care about.

As a bilingual French speaker with experience teaching secondary school students, I offer engaging and effective online lessons that you can access from anywhere.
Each lesson is tailored to the individual student. I take time to understand their academic needs, personal goals, and preferred learning pace. My aim is to create a comfortable, confidence-building environment where the student feels fully prepared before moving on to new topics.
Each lesson is 1 hour in duration.
For Leaving Cert students, I focus on speaking and understanding the French language to prepare students for the oral and listening exam. The time spent on each depends on the student's strengths and weaknesses. These lessons prioritise interaction, conversation, and practical expression.
Lessons for Junior Cert students will cover both the written and listening components of the exam.
If you are looking for personalised, engaging, and results-driven French tutoring, I would be delighted to support your learning journey.
