Hello! I'm thrilled to introduce myself as your tutor, bringing a wealth of diverse teaching experiences to help you achieve your goals. My tutoring journey began at the age of 15, when I had the rewarding opportunity to guide two young learners, aged 7 and 9, through their school subjects in preparation for their 11+ exams. This early experience ignited my passion for teaching and helping students unlock their potential.

Whilst living in Argentina as part of my Spanish degree, I completed a qualification to Teach English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) and expanded my expertise by teaching English to both children and adults. I even led business English lessons, which was a fantastic opportunity to tailor my teaching methods to suit professional environments and diverse learning needs.

In addition, I worked as a gymnastics coach while pursuing my studies at The University of Manchester. This role honed my skills in discipline, motivation, and creating a positive learning environment—attributes that I bring to my tutoring sessions.

For the past year, I've dedicated myself to working in a primary school for children with social, emotional, and behavioural needs (SEND). Leading English and Maths classes in this setting has deepened my understanding of how to create engaging and supportive learning experiences tailored to each student's unique needs. It has also exemplified the value of building a relationship with each student I work with, as this often brings the best results when it comes to learning.

With this rich tapestry of experiences, I'm excited to offer personalised, dynamic, and effective tutoring that caters to your individual learning style. Let's embark on this educational journey together and make learning an exciting and rewarding adventure!
