DELE C1-qualified Spanish private tutor

Róisín has worked in my language school for the past 8 summers, teaching groups of French, German, Italian & Spanish teenagers. Her lesson planning is impeccable, her knowledge of grammar, syntax and colloquialisms rock solid, her ability to communicate clearly and with kindness and patience is very impressive. She is always very popular with the students and positive feedback from parents and teachers is a regular occurence. I can wholeheartedly recommend Róisín, both as a one-to-one tutor and for groups of students. Her humour, patience, and fastidious grammar is an ideal combination.

I came to Róisín for Spanish help in the year leading up to my final secondary school exams. I had been struggling with the language in school and failing all my tests, as well as finding the teacher's instruction difficult to engage with. I found that being able to have that one-to-one experience meant that all focus was on my work and not divided between a class of 20. Róisín was subtle, yet clearly very accurate, in her assessment of my level and began forming the lessons around making the foundations of my language stronger, instead of just drilling grammar facts into me. This continued until I was actually understanding the language and how it was used as opposed to just trying to recall vocab or grammar tenses that might work. She covered everything, from oral and listening to reading and writing. I ended up getting a H1 (the Irish equivalent of an A*) on my final exam. I was delighted with myself but I genuinely wouldn't have got it had it not been for Róisín's help.
