Welcome to my page! Clare Fennell language tuition was set up in 2017 after a conversation I had with my husband about work / life balance. I was teaching French and Spanish 3 days a week at a brilliant local Secondary School but it was all-consuming. Even when I wasn’t working I was thinking about work, which wasn’t really giving me the headspace to think about or do anything else well.
He simply asked me “Isn’t there something else you could do to use your passion for languages?”. I then chanced upon a Facebook advert for La Jolie Ronde language clubs for children, made a few phonecalls, handed in my resignation, and embarked upon on this journey into something new, challenging, (quite scary) but joyful.
Fast forward two years and I now teach French and Spanish to all ages! I visit Primary Schools to deliver “La Jolie Ronde” extra-curricular language clubs and a local coffee shop to teach French to a wonderful group of adults with “Language for Fun”. I also tutor from home, and offer translation services.
It is varied and fascinating and I get to exercise my passion for languages and culture almost everyday. I never feel the Sunday blues anymore and I have ceased counting down the weeks to each half-term. One of my favourite phrases is “Tout est dur avant d’être facile” - it has certainly not always been a smooth ride, but I am so glad I made that leap of faith (with a little help) and genuinely love and enjoy what I do now.
