Language learning – French, Spanish and German
Rails Farm learning hub can now offer three languages: French, Spanish and German.
We have two language tutors: Christoph offers German, including advanced levels, and courses for adults in our teaching room on the farm.
Christoph is a native German speaker with many years experience of making the trickiest grammar points clear and can provide a wealth of interesting information about German history and culture, as well as language. He has supportive WhatsApp groups for each class, so that the lessons become a community of German learners for those who wish to join in.
Isla offers French, Spanish and German from Reception and primary level up to GCSE, both in person and online.
Isla’s teaching methods include games, rhymes and songs for younger learners, following their interests in order to promote enjoyment, engagement and confidence at this age. Later at secondary level, lessons support and explain grammar and vocabulary, as well as providing lots of speaking practice. Your child will develop a good accent and become more confident speaking, ready for speaking exams, if that is the route they are taking.
Home educated pupils and those who are learning for fun can have classes tailored to their interests and combined with art, projects, etc to suit the individual child.
