I am a native Spanish teacher with ten years of experience in private tutoring. I completed a Bachelor of Arts Open (Hons) degree with the Open University with a result of Upper Second Class Degree in 2008. I teach all levels of Spanish to children and also adults (including GSCE and A level). I enjoy teaching Spanish. I also speak fluent Catalan and I am prepared to teach that language and beginners Portuguese.

Tutoring Experience

Teacher of Spanish (from 2007) for The Language Store, Watford:
Teaching Spanish to two group of adults in VOCA Ltd, (Rickmansworth) and two groups (beginners and intermediate) in Watford.
Teaching Spanish for A-1 Tutors and Apex tutors (from 2007)
Private Tuition (from 2004). Teaching Spanish to adults and children.
Conversation classes (from January 2008) for GCSE and AS/A2 students in Immanuel College (Bushey).

Tutoring Approach

I have planned all my own lessons and accumulated useful resource material.
I offer tailor made Spanish lessons, trying to adapt them to my pupils needs.
I have created my own flash cards and card games to try and make the learning enjoyable.
Depending on the ages, I have also accumulated a number of Spanish songs.
It is one of my priorities to encourage my pupils to speak Spanish from the first day.
