Salsabiel

I am a Secondary Languages Teacher with QTS (Specialism in Spanish KS3, GCSE and A-Level and French KS3 and GCSE), covering the Edexcel and AQA curriculum. I am also able to teach English KS3 and GCSE (AQA).

I have 7 years teaching experience within the classroom, including a recent role as Head of Spanish and French at a Secondary and Sixth Form school in Staffordshire. In addition, I have worked as a private tutor since 2017 working with students on a 1:1 basis, from both mainstream settings and less traditional settings also (including neurodiverse learners). Whilst I cover the entire syllabus, my recent focus has been around preparing students for exams- I am pleased to say that I have supported each and every one of my students to achieve excellent outcomes, with many exceeding expectations (reviews and references provided).

I am driven to improve outcomes for my students; whether this is to improve current grades, work towards targets or even to start from the beginning and/or fill in any missing academic gaps. I have worked with a diverse community of students therefore I am flexible and enthusiastic to support all types of learners on their academic journey!

I have always worked in an inclusive and flexible way , therefore I am able to differentiate work to support high and low ability students, as well as those with behavioural and learning difficulties. I believe languages should be accessible to everyone, and I am passionate about doing whatever possible to make sure my students can access the curriculum with confidence and enjoyment.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Availability: I can offer daytime, afternoon and evening lessons Monday- Friday, Online or in some cases from my home. I can also offer limited sessions for Saturday mornings 9-12.

Willing to travel: Home Only

Experience: I gained QTS in 2015, and have since worked across diverse educational settings in London, Essex and currently within West Midlands- I have consistently achieved fantastic exam results and academic outcomes from my students, as well as instilling confidence and trust in not only my learners but their parents/carers also who know that their young person is being well supported.

As well as a PGCE in Secondary Education, I have an Masters in Hispanic Studies specialising in Translation, History, Politics and Language- I therefore try to make learning a truly fun and engaging experience by getting to know my students and appealing to their interests to make their own educational journey a fun and worthwhile experience.

Finally, I have taught a variety of exam boards but I am a specialist with Edexcel and AQA (however, I can easily accommodate other exam boards if required, including IGCSE and OCR).
