Information About Georgia - Sunderland teacher

Personal Description:

I am a professional translator and language tutor with degrees from Durham University and the University of Cambridge. I received a first class degree in Modern Languages with a Distinction in Spoken Spanish from Durham University, and I also have a distinction-level MPhil degree from the University of Cambridge in Latin American Studies. I have spent a total of 5 years living in Spain and Latin America. This combination of high-level formal study, in-country immersion and professional experience means I have an excellent understanding of both Iberian and Latin American Spanish, the cultures of the Spanish-speaking world and how to transmit this knowledge in a clear, accessible way.

Teaching Experience:

I have worked as an English teacher for young children in Argentina and Peru. I have given private English tuition to a number of advanced students, and ran a number of English literature workshops in Argentina. Most recently, I have been teaching Spanish conversation classes in Sunderland.

Teaching Approach:

My approach to teaching is all about tailoring the classes to the student's needs. Whether you are taking an exam, want to learn basic phrases for a holiday or just want to learn something new, I can prepare exercises to help you meet your goals.

I find that many people feel that learning a language is "too hard" or "intimidating". I aim to make language-learning an enjoyable, accessible experience that is fun while being informative.

At the moment I am only offering online classes.
