I love teaching and helping people become more confident in Spanish and Portuguese. I have been a teacher for more than 35 years, and throughout my career I have enjoyed helping people learn, develop and achieve their goals.

Having learned a third language myself, I understand how challenging learning a new language can feel. I’ve also learned that making mistakes is a natural and important part of the process, helping you improve and build confidence.

My lessons are friendly, supportive and adapted to your level, needs and goals. We can work on all aspects of Spanish and Portuguese — speaking, listening, reading and writing — with clear explanations and plenty of practical practice. Whether you are a complete beginner or want to improve your existing Spanish or Portuguese, I will help you progress at a pace that suits you while making learning enjoyable.

A typical lesson might begin with a short conversation or review of previous material, followed by a new topic or language point. We could then practise through a combination of reading, listening, writing and speaking activities, depending on your goals. I’ll explain and correct things along the way, and we’ll finish by reviewing what you have learned and identifying what to practise next.

I want every lesson to have a clear purpose, while still feeling relaxed and engaging.
