Patricia

I am a linguist with a first class degree in French and Italian from Bath University and also A Level Spanish. After working as a translator for a couple of years, I trained to teach English as a Foreign Language and completed the RSA Diploma while teaching in Rome. As well as teaching EFL, French, Italian and Spanish at an FE/HE college and giving private tuition, I have also worked extensively in the business world, always using my language skills on a daily basis, particularly Spanish and French.

Availability: Currently available during the day and early evening, but not after 6.30 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Weekends are also possible.

Willing to travel: 5 miles

Experience: I worked for over 10 years at Farnborough College of Technology teaching English as a Foreign Language at all levels up to Proficiency, French A Level (evening class) and Italian and Spanish at beginner and intermediate levels (to degree and HND students). I also gave private tuition in French up to GCSE level. Prior to that, I taught EFL for 2 and a half years in Italy and London and later taught French and Italian evening classes in Woking and Camberley and gave private tuition in Italian.
