Warwickshire and Leicestershire

Are you thinking of learning Spanish? Or brushing up on Spanish you learnt some time ago? Maybe you learn via an app but would like more conversation practice. You can’t beat a real person to explain grammar or the right words to use.

Maybe I’m the person to help you?

I am half Spanish and grew up understanding Spanish but not really speaking it much or knowing how to read and write it, until I started learning formally around age 9. I then went on to complete my GCSE at night school. I furthered my studies at Lancaster University, where I received the distinction in spoken Spanish, which is only awarded to one person each year.

As well as communicating with family, I worked as an au-pair in Asturias for 3 months and then undertook an Erasmus placement at the university of Bilbao as part of my degree. After graduating I returned to live and work in Spain, writing interactive language learning courses.

I feel I am uniquely placed to understand how to learn the language and the things that people find tricky to master in their language learning journey. I have been teaching Spanish full time since since 2017 and have won several awards for my children’s franchise Kidslingo Spanish Nuneaton & Hinckley.

In several cases I teach all the children and adults in the family!
