I aim to make my lessons as comfortable as possible, where mistakes are welcome and never judged. Students will feel a sense of ambition and confidence to achieve their best in my lessons. Depending on the content of the lesson, it will usually last for 60 minutes.

I have tutored university peers throughout my degree and am training to be a professional teacher (PGCE) in a secondary school, which is why all of my lessons are aimed at KS3 and KS4.

My passion for teaching is not only limited to what we do in a lesson, but also how students feel when they’re learning and when they’ve finished work for the day. As a Spanish native speaker, I want my students to love my native language as much as I do, which means I’ll adapt my teaching to however means necessary. If there is something you don’t understand, you can always let me know, without feeling judged, pressured, or anxious about it. My lessons are a safe space for all to learn, and together, we can surely cultivate a way to what your idea and feeling of success looks like.
