I have been teaching Spanish and English in four different countries in the last six years. I am very passionate about teaching my two cultures, since I was born in Spain but I hold a British passport because my mother was born and raised in the UK.

I love teaching because for me it is a way of expanding my own culture and I love to see how people learn from it and get excited about knowing more about it. I usually prepare my lessons in a way that the student feels motivated to learn. I like asking what my students like doing, such as hobbies, interests, music, films, books that motivate them, and then I work from there. My aim is to develop my pupil's language skills in a fun way. I believe that it is more efficient to learn from the heart.

I first started my teaching journey in Morocco, I was 18 years old and went volunteering to Midelt. There I taught English for a brief period of time, but this experience woke many interests inside me. Since that experience I have never stoped learning about people and life.

I lived in Denmark for a year while I was finishing my bachelor, and the following year I moved to the vity of Birmingham beacuse I found a job as a MFL in a Grammar school. I worked for this school, (King Edward VI Camp Hill) for two consecutive years. Then I moved back to Spain and started a Masters in Audiovisual Translation.

I am currently living and studying in Spain but I would like to go back to the UK or any other English speaking country in the near future. However, for no, I would like to start giving online lessons.

So, if any of you who is reading this and wants to learn Spanish right now, do not doubt and contact me! You will see how much you learn, and how fast!
