Tutoring Approach:
The communicative approach centered in developing students' skills and abilities is my preferred tutoring approach, but it depends on the students needs. In the first lesson there is an assessment of competence and a learning style evaluation so I can easily tailor the Spanish course according to the needs of the student.
In all cases, Spanish classes include grammar, written exercises, talking and listening, and the writing practices are carried out through the homework (optional)
Also important the mutual evaluation at the end of each class so that both student and myself can correct/improve something that is not going well in order to fulfill mutual expectations, and have an interesting, funny and efficient Spanish lesson every class.

Personal Description:
Spanish tutoring that actually works

I am a native Spanish speaker with over ten years of experience teaching Spanish to adults, young learners, and students who have struggled to learn the language despite trying multiple methods before.

Many of my students come to me frustrated. They feel that Spanish is "not for them", that they learn slowly, forget easily, or never feel confident speaking. This is exactly where my work begins.

I do not follow generic programmes or one-size-fits-all methods. Instead, I design a clear learning strategy for each student. I analyse how you have tried to learn before, identify the specific obstacles that are holding you back, and restructure your learning process step by step. This allows us to focus on what truly matters for you, without pressure and at a pace that builds confidence rather than anxiety.

My guarantee is simple: if you commit to the process, you will learn Spanish. Not because I repeat what everyone says about "adapting to your learning style", but because I work systematically on your real difficulties, using calm, structured and personalised strategies that make progress inevitable.

I work especially well with learners who:

Have tried courses, apps or tutors before without success

Feel blocked when speaking or afraid of making mistakes

Learn slowly and need clarity, patience and structure

Want real progress, not just more explanations

My experience teaching Spanish across different levels and contexts allows me to guide you with clarity, realism and confidence. Learning Spanish does not have to be stressful or confusing. With the right strategy, it becomes achievable.

If you are ready to stop trying random methods and start learning with a clear plan that works, I will be glad to help you.

Teaching Experience:

- Modern Foreign Language Coordinator and Spanish Teacher, Chiltern Way Federation 2012 - 2014
- Spanish and Italian Teacher, North Chaderton School, Manchester 2010 - 2012
- Freelance Spanish Teacher, European Language Solutions, London Uk. 2009- 2010 / St. George International, London 2006 - 2008.

Tutoring Approach:
How my Spanish tutoring works

My teaching is based on one core principle: people do not fail to learn Spanish, methods do. My role is to identify exactly where the learning breaks down and rebuild the process in a way that works for you.

These are the key elements of my approach:

1. Personalised learning strategy
Before focusing on content, I analyse how you have tried to learn Spanish before and identify the specific difficulties blocking your progress. From there, I create a clear learning strategy tailored to your needs. Each lesson is designed with a purpose, not copied from generic materials.

2. Structured and calm progression
I work at a pace that ensures real understanding. Lessons are carefully structured so that concepts are reinforced, not rushed. This is especially effective for students who feel overwhelmed, anxious or discouraged by language learning.

3. Targeted problem-solving
Rather than covering everything at once, I focus on your weakest areas first. Whether it is speaking, pronunciation, grammar or confidence, we address problems directly and systematically until progress becomes visible and measurable.

4. Cultural context that supports communication
Language cannot be separated from culture. I integrate practical cultural insights that help you understand how Spanish is really used, making communication more natural and effective.

What I can offer you

Tailored Spanish programmes
Lessons are aligned with the Common European Framework and adapted to your goals. I combine structured exercises, guided speaking practice and focused activities that develop all key skills: listening, reading, speaking, writing and pronunciation. This approach works particularly well for learners who benefit from clarity, structure and guided practice.

Focused learning modules
If you already have some knowledge of Spanish and want to improve specific areas, I offer targeted modules such as:

Conversation and fluency

Vocabulary development

Pronunciation and accent clarity

Grammar made clear and usable

Reading comprehension

Writing skills

Exam and entrance preparation

Guaranteed progress for school students
I support children and teenagers who are struggling with Spanish at school or preparing for GCSEs and A-levels. My tutoring focuses on building confidence, correcting gaps in understanding and improving academic performance. With commitment and consistency, progress is guaranteed.

Spanish for business and professional contexts
For professionals, I focus on practical communication skills for meetings, workplace interaction and professional environments. The goal is not perfect Spanish, but confident, effective communication.

Location and flexibility

Lessons can take place at your home, office or another suitable location, creating a comfortable environment that supports focused learning.

If you are willing to commit to the process, I am confident that this approach will help you finally make real progress in Spanish.

Personal Description:
Professionally qualified (DfES number RP 04/31188).

I am a musician, qualified primary teacher (QTS) with a Master's degree in Education, Pets As Therapy volunteer, founder and facilitator at Meta for learning CIC.

My interests in education are in Open Learning, Outdoor Learning, Animal Assisted interventions, Blended learning and helping learners build international links.


As part of a distance-learning Masters degree in association with FUNIBER and the Universidad de León, I carried out an ethnographic action research project using a democratic approach called Community Language Learning. In this approach there is no syllabus or textbook to follow. It is the learners themselves who determine the content by means of meaningful conversations.
It incorporates translation, transcription and recording techniques.

When I am not working I love volunteering, practising ice skating or track cycling with my daughter and also growing an edible garden !

Teaching Experience:
I was born in Madrid where I trained as a primary teacher and classical musician (cello and chamber music).

I worked in Escuelas de Musica in the outskirts of Madrid which are inclusive socially-minded music schools where I taught cello lessons and support the development of the String Department by assisting during orchestra rehearsals. Both adults and children of all ages are welcome to take lessons.

Shortly after moving to the UK I started a part time job teaching Music to 5-7 yo children at the Rowans Prep school in Wimbledon alongside studying a Mater's and working in Adult education- I carried out a 2-year ethnographic action research project at St Luke's centre in Islinghton.

I then applied to a position in Esadst London and started working for Children's language services teaching at several primary schools in Tower Hamlets. My roles were to deliver the MFL primary curriculum; coordinate the implementation of new initiatives in schools ie use of the European Portfolio for language Learning which was being developed between the Council and universities, provide class teachers with CPD training; undertake tasks such as EAL First Language assessments.

After taking maternative leave I trained to become an online tutor and worked part- time for Own Tutors, Clapham.

In 2019 I founded a learning community Metaforlearning Cic where I run Self-Manage Learning programmes for young people.

In my tutoring work I am reliable, flexible and experienced. I have been working in the UK, Ireland and Spain and have experience in exam preparation for the Spanish internationally recognised DELE junior and DELE for adults; Spanish GCSE, IGCSE, Spanish A-LEVELS with AQA, OCR and EDEXCEL exam boards; and IB ab initio and Language B international qualifications. In the past I have prepared young cellists for 1-8 ABRSM performance grades.

Tutoring Approach:
Students set their own learning goals and I assist them in order to map the neccesary learning to achieve them and also by working at the level that they feel comfortable with at each stage of the process.

With young learners I make use of VR, AR and gamification for enhancing engagement in language learning.

If your enquiry is regarding learning for either improving wellbeing, traveling or living in a Spanish speaking country then we will be looking at different learning objetives and skills than for example an enquiry regarding accessing an university of your choice.

I have wide experience supporting international students in understanding and preparing to access Universities in the UK.

Personal Description:
I have the character traits, the professional competence and communicative skills of a native speaker of Spanish to deliver quality lessons adapted to the student`s needs and demands.

The lessons will be immersive in the target language.Real Spanish in use will appear and the learner will be prompted to practice the target language as much as possible according to their level of Spanish. ..

I like to adjust the dynamics and content of every lesson to the specific needs of the learner. Also I find it challenging and rewarding to create tailored lessons adapted to any specific student´s needs.

I have the academic background in SSL and the communicative skills as a native speaker of Spanish to meet any needs the learner might demand .Starting with zero level,going to casual adult learning,business Spanish and any required academic stage and examination test.

Teaching Experience:
I have a strong background in the field of Teaching of Spanish as a second language as I have taught adults and children since I finished my master my degree back in 1996.

I have taught SSL for more than twenty years(2.000-2.008) in the Sunny coast in Spain to English foreign residents,both casual and academic learners(A-C LEVELS) of Spanish language and culture.
I have taught English as a second language and Spanish language (1.995-2.008) and literature to pupils all across the Spanish Curriculum.


I am currently teaching Spanish in the area of Nottingham-Loughborough-Leicester to both GCSA students at AQA level and casual adult learners .

Tutoring Approach:
My viewpoint is that it is the student the one who plays the key role in any teaching-learning process.

Essentially the lessons will have an immersive character where the real use of Spanish,whatever your needs are,will be at the forefront.



There were several fields all along my university degree such as phonetics,phonology or grammatical structures where it was established a contrastive study between the English and Spanish languages I think that is a plus and poses an advantage when it comes to teaching Spanish to any English native speaker.
.
As a general overview you will be covered any aspect of the Spanish language you are interested in.




I would like just to welcome any question or doubt you have about the lessons and the way we could approach them.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Personal Description:
I am a fully qualified and experienced Mandarin and Spanish teacher, and held the positions of Head of Chinese at both Oakham School and Oundle School. I am bilingual in Spanish, and studied Chinese at University for 4 years, including a year in China.

Languages have always been a passion of mine, and I am eager to help language learners of all abilities. I am friendly and approachable, and realise how difficult Mandarin in particular can be for learners with no Chinese background. I genuinely enjoy finding new ways to help pupils overcome these difficulties, especially with writing and speaking. Spanish has its own challenges, and I am equally passionate about both languages.

Teaching Experience:
I have taught and am familiar with a range of exam boards and syllabuses. At GCSE Level I have taught AQA and EdExcel, and Cambridge IGCSE. I have also taught IB Diploma Level: Spanish Standard and Higher Levels; Mandarin ab initio. I have taught A Level and Cambridge Pre-U in both languages for a number of years. All my pupils have achieved top results.

Tutoring Approach:
I believe that everyone learns differently and I will first spend time getting to know exactly what is needed, and how the individual learns best before coming up with a personalised plan. I believe my strongest ability is an adaptability to meet the varying needs of the pupil as, generally, this is why tuition is being sought beyond the school curriculum.

In terms of academic structure, I would aim to follow a curriculum but have the flexibility to pause where needed. I am a firm believer that confidence is an essential part of learning a language, and I hope to give my pupils the confidence that they need.

Lastly, but equally as important, language learning should be engaging and fun. I strive to keep a healthy balance in this. So often I meet pupils who have initially fallen out of love with a subject and bringing them back on board is essential. Whilst the emphasis is always on academic progress, lessons will always be enjoyable.
