Teaching English as a foreign language at various age appropriate levels to children aged 5 - 16.

Whilst living here, I have also studied Spanish as a second language myself. My time here has allowed me to gain ideal experience to continue teaching English as a foreign language, as not only do I have experience of teaching English at different levels to children of a wide age range but I also understand first-hand the difficulties that can come with learning a foreign language. Now, I want to use my experience and skills to continue helping students to improve their English.

I am a very sociable person and I have a positive, optimistic personality which I think is essential when working as a tutor. Alongside my articulate knowledge of the English language, I will also bring an encouraging and fun atmosphere to my lessons!
