About Me


Hello. I am Andrea. I am an experienced teacher with British and American nationality but I currently live in Spain. I am adaptable, flexible and curious. I teach English to adults and older teens and have worked with professionals in many different fields like healthcare, law enforcement, sales, education, culture and government.

I DO NOT WORK WITH CHILDREN.

I enjoy working with students preparing for professional exams (OET, STANAG etc) or level exams (FCE, CAE etc.). I can also help you to prepare for a job interview or a presentation.

I love learning and especially enjoy using specialised English. I use mainly a communicative approach. I like for my students to feel comfortable speaking English as soon as possible. I will request that you do a bit of homework but I will always adapt to you and your life.

Let's get to know each other! Send me a message and we can set up a time to do a trial lesson.
