Hola, Ciao, Hello! I'm Cristina!
A trilingual tutor fluent in English, Spanish, and Italian, with hands-on experience teaching English as a foreign language to Spanish-speaking children aged 4–17 and providing educational support to learners with additional needs. Raised in Italy and educated in the UK and Spain, I bring a genuine international perspective to language learning and a strong ability to adapt lessons to different age groups, learning styles, and abilities. Detail-oriented and engaging, I am passionate about helping students build confidence and communicate effectively in English.
I know first-hand what it feels like to learn a language from scratch, which means I understand the frustrations as well as the breakthroughs, and I know how to keep lessons encouraging and fun. Over five consecutive summers I lived with Spanish families as an au pair, teaching English through daily immersion, an experience that taught me just as much about patience and adaptability as it did about teaching itself. Beyond the classroom, I also spent three years living and working in Madrid, which means I deeply understand the challenges Spanish speakers face when learning English, as well as the cultural nuances that shape communication. I bring all of that into my lessons to make learning feel natural, relevant, and engaging.
My lessons are aimed at anyone who wants to learn English, whether you're a complete beginner, a child picking it up for the first time, a student preparing for an exam, or an adult returning to it after years away. For younger learners, I use games, stories, and creative activities to make English feel natural and exciting rather than like homework. For adults, I focus on building real communicative confidence, the kind that actually helps you in the real world, whether that's ordering food, navigating a job interview, or finally binge-watching your favourite show without subtitles. I adapt every lesson to your goals, your pace, and your learning style, so whether you want to prepare for a holiday, help your child learn through play, pass an exam, or simply hold a real conversation, we’ll work towards what matters most to you. I offer lessons in English as a foreign language for Spanish and Italian speakers, and I genuinely love seeing the moment a student realises they can actually do this.
