Tailored Spanish, French & English language lessons open to all ages and levels including Beginners, National 5, Higher, and Advanced Higher to build confidence and/or prepare for any upcoming exams.

I seek to help others master these languages using various language-learning strategies I`ve learned along the way – the conscious steps or behaviours used by language learners to enhance the acquisition, storage, retention, recall, and use of new information.

I ensure my lessons have elements that not only cater to the different learning styles of my students, but that are also conducive to their various learning strategies. I find this has more impact than relying on a single strategy, and results in improved proficiency or achievement overall or in specific skill areas.

Experience: As part of my Honours degree, I spent my third year abroad teaching in a high-school in Seville, Spain, teaching ages 13-18 in classes, private 1-to-1 classes with adults, and private tutoring of an American family who had just moved there and were looking to learn Spanish. Since then, I have provided several regular tutoring sessions to all ages, including Beginners, National 5, Higher, and Advanced Higher.
