My lessons are fun and engaging; they will involve lots of images and tools to help you learn. Learning languages involves lots of learning by association and so images and visual tools are key! They will be interactive and upbeat lessons where having fun is imperative, I believe learning happens best when you are enjoying what you are doing and so I always try to focus on that. I am studying primary Education at Brighton University and will be selecting modern foreign language in my second year as my focus. I have experience speaking conversational Spanish and French language with fluent family members.

I will structure my lessons with vocabulary reminders at the start to rejig memory, followed by 1 or 2 activities. The lessons will involve lots of communication and practicing of speaking.

I will tailor lessons to anything required e.g to support with feedback received from schools and will provide extra guidance on becoming fluent in English.

I have experience supporting EAL pupils in school settings and understand challenges faced. I strive to support all pupils in my care as best as possible.
