Vanessa

¡Hola!

I am a native Spanish tutor with a BA (Hons) in Spanish Language and Literature, a BA in Journalism, and Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), obtained through a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (Spanish Language and Literature). I am also an accredited DELE examiner for levels B1 and B2.

My academic background, combined with many years of experience as both a private tutor and a classroom teacher, has given me a thorough understanding of the Spanish language and the most effective ways to teach it. Throughout my career, I have also volunteered with a charity that supports students from disadvantaged backgrounds in gaining places at top universities, and I have worked at both a language school and the prestigious Instituto Cervantes.

I have taught Spanish in primary schools and currently teach in a secondary school in North London, working with students of different ages, abilities, and learning objectives. Whether you are preparing for GCSEs, A Levels, DELE exams, travelling, or simply learning for pleasure, I tailor my lessons to suit your individual needs.

My lessons are dynamic, engaging, and highly interactive, making use of a wide range of resources, including videos, games, worksheets, authentic texts, grammar activities, songs, flashcards, and past examination papers. My aim is to help you build confidence and achieve real progress in speaking, listening, reading, and writing.

I am passionate about teaching and genuinely enjoy creating creative, motivating, and personalised lessons that help every student reach their full potential.
