Information about Pili
¡Hola! Bienvenida/o, benvida/o, benvenuta/o, bienvenu(e), welcome! If you need to improve your Spanish, you`ve landed in good hands.
"So sorry I meant to email you yesterday but I got an A for Spanish which I’m thrilled about so thank you so much for all the help you gave me because it made a huge difference!! I’m actually now considering studying Spanish at university which is amazing!" (Edexcel A Level student, summer 2019, A grade)
About me:
I come from North-West Spain and I have been teaching Spanish in the UK since 2000 to people of different nationalities, ages, abilities and professions, including many language teachers. I taught in adult and sixth-form departments until 2015 when I started tutoring privately. I now combine tutoring with translation; therefore, I have limited places. I love tutoring: it`s incredibly rewarding, it`s sociable and it would be a shame to stop sharing my expertise. I have been honoured to welcome tutees from as far as Winchester.

Pili has been very professional and organised in her dealings with my daughter. Mabel is really enjoying her lessons and already feels more confident in class

I like the way Pili taught me. She used different good methods to learn Spanish which I would have never guessed. She taught me the tenses in an easier way. She helped me learn the tenses better. She also showed me a good book which I can use to learn Spanish.

I have only just started working with Pili, but I can say that she is patient, thorough, and quickly got a good understanding of my objectives.
