Information about Maria

On line & face to face classes.
I am native Spanish speaker and a qualified and experienced Spanish teacher.

I offer Spanish lessons for all levels and purposes.

From my own experience of studying English, if you want to learn a foreign language, there`s no better way than by conversing with a native speaker.

I have helped people of all ages who want to learn or practise Spanish, from preschool children to long retired pensioners, and with primary school level up to preparation for GCSE and A level exams.

Business Spanish? Holiday Spanish? Spanish to pass exams? Get in touch and I would love to see if I could help you by creating some bespoke lessons.

Availability: From 9am to 8pm. From Mondays to Fridays.
Flexible on Saturdays and Sundays.

Willing to travel: Home Only

Experience: I am a native Spanish speaking tutor with over 15 years of experience in private tutoring. I hold my English QTS and a teaching degree. I have more than 15 years teaching and tutoring experience in fields like Maths, Economics and Business, Science and for the last 8 years, Spanish as Foreign Language in Primary and Secondary Schools


Also, I teach what I call “survival Spanish” in a short period of time for those people who want to spend their holidays in a Spanish speaking country or simply impress someone by ordering food in the local language.

Maria is such a wonderful tutor. I was so nervous attempting to speak Spanish again after such a long time. However Maria makes the lessons fun and it`s amazing how much you take in and remember. I`m already in the process of working towards a qualification which is a result of Maria`s encouragement and support. She`s so engaging and you will love learning with her. Maria also offered a free introduction chat which really impressed me as not all tutors are willing to do this. Highly recommended and I guarantee you`ll look forward to your lessons every time.

I can only seak of initial contact as I haven`t started yet - I decided to wait for now. Maria was a good communicator, replied quickly and our check in session made me feel she would tailor our work together to suit me.

María is an excellent teacher. I am an adult learner and was nervous at first. María put me at my ease and has quickly understood my level and needs. I feel that I am now making good progress and would thoroughly recommend María as a Spanish teacher.

María is a fantastic teacher. She`s a natural, very intuitive and it`s clear she loves teaching. I`ve been having a face to face lesson once a week since December and I really look forward to it. I feel totally at ease. Even if i`m tired and haven`t managed to find alot of time to study, it`s so worthwhile as I always come away learning something new and motivated. I`ve been revising alot (as I forget so much if i don`t keep using it) and also learning new verbs, vocabulary and understanding more about how to use it correctly day to day. María understands my need to repeat/revise things and tailors our lessons and homework perfectly to include the right mix of written & formal learning with conversation and topical/practical subjects. The pace is just right, enough to push me a bit, but achievable so i keep motivated. I`d recommend María to anyone of any age or ability. So glad to have found such a great teacher!

I had a good feeling about Maria from the moment I read her reviews. All positive and all encouraging. However, what really stood out for me is Maria took the time to hold an initial to find out more about me- my interests, my goals and most importantly why I wanted to learn Spanish? It is through this conversation she has been able to build a clear learning path for me around my lifestyle and needs. Maria is a brilliant teacher, who takes her time with you, makes adjustments as needed and is quick to praise throughout the lesson. I highly recommend her, if you are looking to pick up another language.

Maria is a fantastic teacher. I highly recommend her. I am an intermediate level adult learner, who wants to practice everyday conversations, improve vocabulary and gain confidence in applying the grammar. Maria always finds interesting topics to cover and she has great ideas for helping me to practice what I know, for learning new areas of vocabulary and for bringing Spanish into my everyday life.

Maria is a fantastic teacher, she is very friendly and enthusiastic and took the time to really assess my level and discuss what I hoped to gain from the lessons and how we could achieve this. My daughter also has classes with Maria and she has not only made great progress and increased her confidence but also enjoys the lessons which is wonderful. Thank you Maria!

I have had three lessons with Maria and feel very positive about them. She is approachable and helpful. I feel very confident that I will make good progress over the coming months. I feel very comfortable being a complete novice as she put me at ease straightaway. Would recommend based on my experience so far.

My husband and I have had three lessons with Maria and feel we are making good and fast progress. Maria custom plans our lessons according to our needs and plans for a future trip to South America. She makes our lessons fun and we look forward to every hour of study spent with her.

Maria is an excellent tutor. My wife and I are learning Spanish to support our trip to Mexico. Maria has structured our lessons so that they are enjoyable and achievable. The sessions are well planned with plenty of supporting materials. Maria follows up each session with an email clarifying any queries that may have arisen and also suggesting other sources of learning, such as use of Netflix etc.
As two apprehensive learners we have rapidly gained in confidence. Maria, ever cheerful and friendly, is adapting our learning so that we can look forward to our trip. We can recommend Maria without reservation.

Maria is the most wonderful tutor, we feel so very lucky to have found her. She is completely reliable, conscientious, supportive and knowledgeable. Her professional calm and inspirational teaching has helped our daughter to find new confidence as she approaches her GCSE`s. We simply can`t recommend Maria highly enough.

I am learning a lot and enjoying our lessons. I like the challenge of trying to understand your Spanish, and the speaking, particularly when I have to think and respond to what I have not prepared.

Lessons with Maria are fun, friendly and professional, she is vey encouraging and structures the classes around developing a comfortable conversational atmosphere and it doesn`t feel intimidating to attempt the correct pronunciation. I have been able to learn Spanish specific to my interests and Maria`s passion for language inspires me to practice and make noticable progress every lesson.
