About Sophie
I began teaching 8 years ago. After training at Dulwich College I moved to Notting Hill and Ealing High school where I have taught French to ages 11-18 and Spanish to age 11-14.
I went to school in France and my husband is French, therefore I am a bilingual French speaker. I am an enthusiastic Francophile and try to instill this in my students though the inclusion of culture in my lessons. I love teaching and endeavor to create lessons where my students leave the classroom buzzing about what they have just learnt. I have received a lot of positive feedback about my teaching from staff and students, and my IGCSE and A level results have been very good. I am especially proud of helping the students who were not feeling like they were good at languages to gain confidence, enjoyment in the subject and good results. Parents often tell me at parents' evening that their daughter really enjoys my lessons.
I would like to help students who are struggling or disillusioned with language learning to regain confidence and love of French.

I worked with Sophie Castano for five years at Notting Hill and Ealing High School. I was the Head of French at the time. Sophie is an outstanding French teacher who is fluent in French and has an excellent understanding and knowledge of the French language, its culture and current affairs. Having taught French to all Key Stages Sophie is a confident teacher to all levels and her pedagogy allows pupils to achieve their best and make great progress.
