If your child is studying English or a language but gets lost in class, freezes up during exams, or studies and still doesn't see results... it's not a lack of ability, but a lack of good explanation and a little guidance.
I have a degree in Translation and Interpreting and two master's degrees in translation, in addition to a C1 level in English and more than six years of teaching experience.
📍I give private lessons in the Añoreta and Torre de Benagalbón area (also online), focused on something very specific: that you understand what you are doing and gain confidence.
I work primarily with elementary, middle, and high school students, helping them learn and prepare for exams. I explain things clearly and in a way that's tailored to each student, because often they just need someone to explain it well for it to "click."
I don't give generic classes, but I get involved with each person and adjust the classes to what they really need, whether it's to reinforce basics, prepare for an exam or get up to speed.
If you want to see if I fit what you need, write to me and we'll see without obligation 😊.
