Tutor profile - Rebekah

Rebekah grew up in Switzerland and so has been exposed to multilingualism from an early age; as a child, she spoke English at home, French at school, and started learning German at the age of seven. She is passionate about languages and convinced anyone can pick them up—with just a little time and commitment!

Rebekah went on to study French and German at Southampton University where she achieved a First. After completing a postgraduate certificate in translation, she took up teaching at Horris Hill Preparatory School where she became Head of Modern Languages. Whilst working at Horris, she also completed a postgraduate certificate in education. Through her practice in the classroom and as a tutor, Rebekah has helped many pupils successfully pass their entrance exams for their chosen senior school.

She has had experience of teaching a range of ages and people from differing backgrounds: ex-pats and employees at Nestlé in Vevey, Switzerland; university students; sixth-formers and children.
