Professional Secondary-School Spanish Teacher: Degree & PGCE Certified, Spanish Conversation from Day 1, Books & Resources Include

If your child is studying GCSE or A-Level Spanish, you want to know that they are receiving clear, structured support from someone who understands both the subject and the exam.

I am a qualified and experienced Spanish teacher specialising in GCSE and A-Level tuition. My aim is to help students improve their confidence, strengthen their Spanish and achieve the best possible exam results.

I hold a BA (Hons) in French and Spanish, a PGCE in Modern Foreign Languages, Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), a Master’s degree in Spanish Language Teaching and a CELTA qualification. I have taught Spanish in schools and online and have worked with students across a wide range of abilities.

I also have experience as an examiner for major UK examination boards, including AQA, Pearson Edexcel and CCEA. This means I understand what examiners are looking for, the mistakes students commonly make and the techniques that can help them gain more marks.

Every student has different strengths and areas for improvement. Some need help filling gaps in grammar or vocabulary, while others are already achieving strong grades and want the extra support needed to reach the highest levels. I tailor each lesson to the individual student rather than following a one-size-fits-all programme.

A major focus of my teaching is confidence. Students often understand more Spanish than they are able to demonstrate in an exam, particularly in speaking and writing. Through regular conversation practice, targeted grammar work, vocabulary development and exam-style activities, I help students become more accurate, fluent and confident.

I am also a qualified DELE examiner for levels A1–B2 and hold the DELE C1 qualification, giving me additional expertise in language assessment and progression.

As a parent, you can expect clear communication about your child’s progress, areas that need attention and what we are working towards. I also provide additional practice where appropriate so that students can continue developing between lessons.

Ultimately, my goal is not simply to help students get through their Spanish exam. I want them to understand how to improve, feel confident using the language and reach a level that genuinely reflects their ability.
