I believe learning a language should feel natural and enjoyable, so I like to keep my lessons interactive and focused on real communication. I use a mix of conversation practice, listening exercises, grammar in context, and cultural insights to help students understand not just how the language works, but why it’s used that way.

I’m confident working with learners of all levels — from complete beginners to those looking to fine-tune their fluency. My approach is patient and encouraging, and I always adapt my lessons to suit each student’s goals and learning style. Whether you prefer structured lessons or a more conversational approach, I make sure every session feels useful and engaging.

Having studied both languages in depth and spent time living abroad, I’m comfortable switching between more academic learning and the kind of everyday language you’d hear out and about in Spain, Latin America, or France. My aim is to help students not just learn the language, but live it — with confidence, curiosity, and a bit of fun along the way.
