Marlene Pacas Nugra

I am a qualified Modern Foreign Languages teacher (PGCE/QTS) specialising in Spanish, with experience teaching KS3–KS4 in UK secondary schools and supporting learners online. My lessons are structured, calm, and personalised to help students build confidence, accuracy, and strong exam skills. I focus on creating a supportive environment where learners feel comfortable practising speaking, improving grammar, and developing vocabulary through clear, step-by-step explanations.

My teaching approach is adaptable and SEND-aware, ensuring that every student receives the right level of challenge and support. I use a variety of methods, including interactive speaking tasks, guided writing practice, exam-style questions, listening activities, and targeted grammar instruction. Lessons are planned with clear objectives, and I provide regular feedback so students understand their progress and know exactly what to improve.

My Spanish lessons are aimed at learners of all ages and levels, including KS3 students building foundations, GCSE students preparing for exams, A-Level learners developing advanced skills, and adults who want to learn Spanish for personal or professional reasons. I tailor each session to the learner’s goals, whether that is improving grades, gaining confidence in speaking, strengthening grammar, or learning Spanish from scratch.

I am committed to helping students achieve steady progress through well-structured lessons, patience, and clear guidance. I aim to make Spanish enjoyable, accessible, and achievable for every learner.
