Spanish for adults, GCSE, A levels, university students

Von 38.07 Fr /Std

I am a Spanish tutor with over 20 years of experience. I had my own school of Spanish as a second language in Malaga, Spain, where I helped dozens of British citizens of all ages to overcome the language barrier and settle in their new home. After relocating to London, I have worked for different language schools. I now specialize in Spanish for GCSE, A levels and university studies. I am also very happy to work with people who need to learn the language for relocation, travelling or business. I love teaching. I use all kinds of multimedia material to support my lessons and make them varied and enjoyable.

Über mich

I have been a teacher of Spanish as a second language for over 20 years, most of them in my school at Malaga, Spain. After relocating to London, I started offering Spanish language lessons and creative writing online as well as Spanish Culture, Literature and History to all levels and ages. I have worked at different language schools, so I am familiar with the structure of the English School system, the National Curriculum and the standards of Spanish for GCSE and A levels. I am passionate about teaching and preparing bespoke lessons for each of my students. This is an activity that I truly love. I have the patience and the skills needed to accompany the students at their own pace, I can engage the students easily and develop a strong rapport.
Regarding my educational background, I have studied Spanish Philology and I have a Diploma in English teaching and ongoing studies of Linguistics at university. However, it's my experience of 20 years as a Spanish teacher which I consider much more worthy.

I have over 25 years of experience as a Spanish tutor. I had my school in Malaga, Spain, where I lived and worked as a Spanish as a second language teacher for the ex-pat community in Costa del Sol between 1996 and 2012. I helped lots of adults and children to settle in their new country, jobs, and schools. After relocating to London in 2013. I worked for different language schools. Currently, I do private tutoring of adults and all key stages, including GCSEs and A-levels students. I am familiar with the National Curriculum and the learning resources of AQA and Edexcel (both the local and the international versions). I have developed my own method to teach Spanish efficiently and enjoyably. My pronunciation of Spanish is noticeably clear.

I offer you a new learning experience.

The focus is on practical application and theory is only introduced where intuition reaches its limits.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, my tailor-made lessons will accelerate your language acquisition in a positive learning environment.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both young people and adults who want to learn German or improve their knowledge without wasting time on nonsensical school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for German. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs. The programme focuses on your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

Tuition:
I offer exam-focussed German tuition for GCSE and A-Level students, as well as tuition for students completing their bachelor degrees and anyone looking to expand their skillset by learning German.

Seeing students grow in confidence as they achieve their goals is my motivation in tutoring. Part of this process involves tailoring the learning methods to the individual's strengths and needs. For instance, a dyslexic German learner will benefit greatly from the use of spoken and visual aids.

About me:
I started learning German in secondary school and went on to study Art History in German Literature in German at the Humboldt-University in Berlin, receiving a first class degree. For four years I lived, studied and worked in Germany, meaning that my vocabulary covers many mundane everyday situations, as well as academic study of art and literature.

I also offer tuition through Skype.

French is a beautiful and useful language, whether you enjoy the literature and music, need to learn it for work or for school, for fun or for an exam.
Whatever your goal is, we will talk about it together and I will customise the classes to your wishes and needs. I have worked with people of all ages and abilities, from toddlers to retirees, and I will make sure the lesson fits your criteria. I can help you prepare for university, take GCSE or A levels, get you ready for your holiday in France, help you with homework, boost your speaking and writing skills, prepare you for business meetings, get you closer to bilingualism... And more!
I was born and raised in France and moved to England a few years ago for my degree in art history. I am in love with France, its culture and language, and I look forward to sharing it all with you!

I specialize in tutoring kids at Primary School Level in Maths and English.

I make learning fun whilst I am setting milestones so that both kids and parents can verify progress.

I am structured in the sense that each class will be prepared prior to the start and will have an intro where objectives are set, we will then follow those objectives and there will then be a recap at the end of the lesson.

I yearn for teaching with young and older learners as well in order to provide them professional knowledge as much as possible. The lesson would include many activities in order to keep it interesting and motivating.
The class will contain many various learning procedures.

Experienced tutor with outstanding language level, very rich vocabulary, deep grammar knowledge, excellent pronunciation and deep understanding about the relevant culture.
Certificates: Spanisch (Cervantes C1, OLS C2), English (Ielts C1, OLS C2), German (native language: C2), French (Bachelor's conducted at Université de Lorraine: C2)

I have been teaching French (A1-C1), Spanish (A1-C1) German (A1-C1), English (A1-C1) and Italian (A1-A2) for GCSE level and beyond to people from different countries for several years during my studies.

Depending on your level, I provide personalised lessons that suit your grammar knowledge and extent to which you can express yourself. Concersation is key for me when learning a language and instead of purely focussing on grammar, I incorporate aquired words or gramatical phrases in a conversation with the student.

Hi All,
thank you for checking out my course.

This class is open to students of all levels. Whether you are only starting to learn the wild-looking letters of the Cyrillic alphabet, or whether you are looking to practise your written and spoken Russian, I would be delighted to accompany you at any stage of your Russian-learning journey. For more advanced students, I would be happy to help you get to know one of the most defining aspects of the Russian language, namely its novels and poetry, which would be a great way to learn about the 'mysterious' Russian soul.

I believe that studying in three different countries have allowed me to try out and assess various approaches to education in general and teaching languages in particular - from the rigourous Russian system based on ensuring that the students will obtain exceptional spelling, grammar, syntax and punctuation skills, to the more relaxed yet more critical and analytical Western approach, focused on problem-solving and independent work.

You will get the benefit of a vast bank of techniques, methods and learning materials that I have developed and accumulated over the past year will be used in class to pique and maintain your interest. And since I was once a language student too, I would be able to share my personal tips and tricks with you to help you reach whatever goal you have set for yourself - be it being able to wow your friends and family by reciting a poem in the language of Dostoyevski, or impressing your future collegues with the thorough knowledge of Russian current affairs in their mother tongue!

For all enthusiasts who want to learn German!
This class will build your basis and the focus will be on grammar and vocabulary. I will develop engaging lesson plans which will explore different aspects of the German culture, including German art, history, geography and culture. This way you will not only expand your vocabulary and grammar knowledge but also get to know German culture better. We will also do speaking and practice pronunciation. The difficulty of the class will depend on your level. Depending on your interest we will focus on the aspect(s) you want to develop and practice more.

Do you need help with writing German? I can help you! Having grown up in Germany for the first 18 years of my life, I am completely fluent in writing on any level you might need, from beginners to professional.

German is a complex language with difficult grammar and pronunciation. Because it’s my first language, I am confident that I can help the students to improve their grades as best as possible. I test vocabularies regularly and try to make the grammar understandable on the basis of exercises.

Social studies as well as science of education persist both of many theories and philosophy. Sometimes it is hard to understand these theories or to memorise them for an upcoming test. I want to make the theories more practical to the student by using examples to explain them. I’d test them regularly by asking for the most relevant facts.

Moreover math is also quite difficult for some students to understand. I already gave math tutor classes for students and it’s very helpful to just make as many exercises and examples as possible and in doing so explaining problems and raising questions.

Test preparation is a special field of education which isn’t really taught in school, although it’s very important for the students to know. It is all about motivation and finding the best method how to learn. Besides, time management and organisation as well as still having time for leisure activities is crucial. I figure this out together with the students preferences and personalities to get the most out of the test prep time.

I am a native Italian speaker and have more than two years of experience teaching Italian as a foreign language to English-speaking students. My path to becoming an Italian teacher began with a Bachelor's degree in Translation Studies for the German and English languages. I then completed a Master's degree in Teaching Italian as a Foreign Language at University of Bologna. Moreover, my passion for teaching the language and culture of my country led me to a second Master's degree in e-learning for teaching Italian to foreigners at University for Foreigners in Siena.

My teaching method is entirely based on the needs of the student. For those who mainly want to improve their oral expression skills, the lesson focuses a lot on conversation. In this way, grammar does not remain dry theory, but is applied again and again as you speak. Vocabulary will also come to you more quickly with practice. According to new didactic research, effective learning is closely linked to the experience of fun and ease and the lessons are designed accordingly.
