Information about Maria Luisa

Hola!! My name is Maria. If you want to learn Spanish, this beautiful and emotional language, in a fun and active way, I am here to help you.

I have a strong vocation for the teaching profession, and I believe that I have the required skills and qualifications for the job. I love to see the evolution of my students from the very basics to having fluent conversations in Spanish.
Have wide experience as a teacher of Spanish comprising different aspects, I like teaching with such a warm and friendly atmosphere it’s really fun to learn. Learning a language involves getting to know different cultures and ways of living, but it’s also about having fun and laughing in order to make the most of this amazing experience. I make my lessons interesting and enjoyable with cultural tips, so my students travelling to South America and Spain can communicate with native Spanish speakers.

I am prepared to teach children, youth and adults and I also have experience, I teach business Spanish.

Availability: Monday to Saturday. 9 am to 9 pm.

Willing to travel: 50 miles

Experience: I hold a first class honours degree in Journalism and Social Communication. I also studied in the Council of Europe on the training of teachers. Furthermore, I have just finished my Master`s degree as “International Teacher of the Spanish Language and Culture” at the Pontifical University of Salamanca in Spain.

I hold a certificate of “Examiner” in accordance with the Common European Framework in reference to the teaching, learning and assessment of languages at the different levels fixed by the said framework. I am also accredited to certify the standards of Spanish to the students who sit for the DELE (Diploma of Spanish as a Foreign Language) exam. DELE is the Spanish government`s official diploma. This accreditation is very useful, especially when the students require the DELE for their studies or work.

DBS Check: Yes

I`ve been learning Spanish with Maria Luisa for the last two months and she has been an excellent teacher so far. She is truly interested in Spanish language and is passionate about teaching which comes through during the lessons through her enthusiasm and direct communicative approach which includes a lot of exposure to the language with the aim of enabling you to think in Spanish. Her style of teaching includes slowly building up your confidence and skills in communicating and writing in Spanish and gradually exposing the student to more complex ideas/grammar/vocabulary which facilitates a good understanding of the language. She is very patient, kind, flexible and makes lessons fun and engaging. I would definitely recommend her as a tutor!

I am 62 years of age and my son is a teacher living in Spain.I go to Spain frequently to visit him and wanted to be able to have a more immersive experience and decided to learn Spanish. Maria Luisa has lived in Colombia and Spain and I wanted somebody who was naturalised in a Spanish speaking country.Her style is very focussed and direct with a lovely personality. She is reliable and travels down to my house each week.Her enthusiasm for England is infectious as is her teaching style.With the informed assistance of Maria Luisa I have exceeded all the learning objectives I set myself and have enjoyed the challenge immensely and this has been helped in no small way by the Tutor`s expertise. I would not hesitate to recommend Maria Luisa to any prospective students wishing to learn the langusge in a relaxed and fun way that produces results. Big thank you to Maria Luisa for opening my eyes to another language and unlocking more experiences for me to have in Spain by being able to communicate in Spanish. Loving it.

Maria, makes you feel comfortable and works at your pace.
As a complete beginner, I`m sure I`m quite frustrating to work with, but Maria is patient with me and gives me the support I need.
I find the classes work well, Maria has recommended some books for me, sets me some `homework` studies and the actual class itself has clearly been structured to my needs.

Maria is an amazing tutor. Within a few sessions I already feel like I have made significant progress. She is not pushy at all and goes at your own pace.

Highly recommended.
