About Me

"Maria was extremely helpful and very easy to talk to. She took the time to establish my knowledge of the language and adjusted the lesson accordingly. An absolutely wonderful teacher". Marlene from The Netherlands.

Hola a tod@s,

I am a Spanish qualified teacher (PGCE in Modern Foreign Languages, Bristol University) . I am from beautiful Valencia in Spain :).

I offer Spanish fun, rewarding one-to-one lessons. I specialise in teaching & preparing students for the IGCSE, IB and AP exams but I have also experience teaching adults.

My teaching has a communicative approach combined with a good basis of explicit and implicit grammar. I offer conversation based lessons, beginner lessons, preparations for exams and challenging lessons for those who are already at an advanced level.

I started teaching in 2009 and I have taught people of many nationalities and ages. I very much enjoy teaching languages and the cultural elements that this entails.

I see myself as a teacher who delivers balanced and effective lessons, enabling students to thrive and perform to the highest standards.

Get in touch if you have any questions or to book a trial lesson. I will be more than happy to assist.

Hasta pronto ;)

Maria
