Acerca de mí

Hi there,

I’m Jane. I’m Scottish and currently live by the sea in Kent in England. I believe we can all work better for our own benefit and improve our mental well being. My approach is holistic as everyone comes with their own knowledge and skills base which we build on together.

I’m currently studying for a PhD in medical history. Before this, I was an educational development tutor at a veterinary college. I’m a registered veterinary nurse who has 10 years education experience. This includes lecturing, clinical skills and assessments.

I’m a PgCert in clinical education, and a qualified coach and mentor.

Let’s work together!

I'm a Spanish teacher with over 20 years of experience in education, and my goal has always been clear: to help students learn the language in a practical, natural, and meaningful way.

My teaching approach is centered around real-life situations, with a strong focus on speaking and oral expression. I use a modern, engaging, and student-friendly method that encourages communication from day one.

I truly believe that learning a language is not just about memorizing rules—it's about living it, using it, and enjoying the journey.

I’m passionate about guiding each student along their path and providing them with the tools they need to feel confident using Spanish in real contexts.

Homework support isn't about getting answers faster. It's about learning how to learn.
While some parents see homework as a battle, I see an opportunity: teaching your child how his brain actually works.

In this class, your child will learn:
✓ How to actually study: not "work harder," but use methods that stick (mind maps, spaced repetition, Pomodoro technique)
✓ Time management without stress: organizing a chaotic schedule without anxiety apps
✓ When to use AI wisely: ChatGPT and other tools as learning partners, not cheating shortcuts
✓ Skills that matter: clear communication, problem-solving like a real thinker, asking good questions
✓ Support in any subject: math, languages, science, humanities, whatever they struggle with

How it works:
We start by understanding how your child actually learns, we don't impose a system that doesn't work for him.
Then we build a toolkit: proven study methods, personal strategies, technology used intelligently, and the confidence that he can learn anything.

What they take home:
A study system that works for him, not for others. Techniques he uses across all subjects. And something more important: the belief that learning isn't something that happens to him — it's something he controls.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60–90 min sessions | Personalized to his age, subjects, and pace.
For parents wondering "Why is homework still a battle?"

Let's rebuild the foundation

Hello, I am Majda, French language teacher. I have been giving private lessons online since 2018.
I offer special sessions that meet your needs and objectives to successfully complete your DELF (Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française) or DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), including the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have been supporting many interested people of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2018; For me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a capital objective in the life of ambitious people.
I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, and also English. I explain my lessons in the language of your choice. And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your gaps and monitor your progress.

Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF:
The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences.
In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles.

Will you have DELF or DALF exams to pass? Do you need to follow specific sessions with me to improve your level?
Don't hesitate to book your sessions so that we can start the preparation.
I am available !

I am a French teacher (with a degree in French and Romance languages and literatures with a focus on teaching). I support young people from across the French-speaking world (Switzerland, Belgium, France) in their academic journey to help them achieve better results in French and, above all, gain more self-confidence.

I work with both native teenagers and foreign students living in French-speaking countries.

I adapt to the curriculum, exams and assessments provided by their school.

Looking forward to meeting your children,

Is AI just for adults? Absolutely not!

This is the perfect course for children (and their parents) to truly understand what Artificial Intelligence is, how it works in our daily lives (from Netflix to video games), and, most importantly, how to use it safely and creatively.

Led by a teacher with over 10 years of experience in technology and coaching, your child will learn to:

Identify what is and what is not AI (the myth vs. the reality).

Play the game of 'training' an AI with simple and fun examples (basic Machine Learning).

Ask their first intelligent questions to generative AI tools to create digital stories or art (introduction to Prompt Engineering).

Understand the importance of ethics and safety when using these new technologies.

This course will transform your child's curiosity into a fundamental skill for the future. We use a personalized coaching approach to ensure complex concepts are accessible and exciting, especially for students with Special Educational Needs (SEN)!

I offer mathematics tutoring for children and teenagers.

My approach goes beyond simply teaching math. My main objective is to help students learn how to learn. Many students struggle not because they are “bad at math,” but because they were never shown how to understand, practice, and think independently. That is exactly what I focus on.

From my own experience, I understand how frustrating and demotivating the school system and traditional classes can feel when explanations are unclear or rushed. That is why I take the time to explain concepts step by step, in a calm and structured way, until they truly make sense.

I aim to build confidence, logical thinking, and independence, so students don’t just solve exercises during the lesson, but are able to approach problems on their own afterward. My goal is for students to realize that learning is not as difficult as it may seem — and that with the right explanation, it can actually feel manageable and motivating.

Lessons are adapted to each student’s level and needs and can include homework support, exam preparation, or strengthening fundamentals.
