Elisa Lavinia

I am a Spanish native with a university degree in Science from University of Alcala de Henares (Madrid) and have a passion for languages and promoting Spanish. I studied English, French and German when I was at school and university, so I understand the challenges of learning a new language. Having lived and worked in the UK for more than 15 years, I provided 1:1 Spanish tutoring to university age students on my first years and have helped family and friends with their Spanish (KS2, GCSE). I have also completed “Teaching Spanish to Young Learners” course at Instituto Cervantes in London and I am always looking for new games and ways to encourage my own children to improve their Spanish.

Tutoring Experience

I did 1:1 Spanish tutoring for 2 years when I moved to the UK. Since then I have tutored family and friends to help with their Spanish (primary, GCSE).

Tutoring Approach

I am patient and dedicated. I understand every student is different and has specific needs and objectives when learning so the teaching style and content needs to be adapted to their age and requirements. Learning a new language can look challenging but it is fun too!
