Is your child falling behind in GCSE Spanish? Worried that their Spanish grades are below their other subjects? Unsure what they need to do to get back on track?
I help students get back on track in GCSE Spanish using the most streamlined route, so they can achieve grade 8-9 without feeling overwhelmed. So that they can get the grade they deserve and thrive in education to have options for their future inside or outside of education. I guide students through my tested 5-step methodology to master the skills needed for success in GCSE Spanish and beyond.
My programmes are for you if you are:
- in Year 10 or Year 11 studying GCSE Spanish
- a dedicated student aiming for top grades (8-9)
- feeling frustrated or overwhelmed by Spanish at the moment, and unsure what you need to do to improve your grade
- lacking the necessary support in the classroom
- willing to put in 2 hours a week to work on your Spanish
About Me:
I have an Honours Degree in Spanish & French from the University of Exeter, and a Masters Degree in Applied Linguistics & Second Language Acquisition (aka. how people learn foreign languages) from the University of Oxford.
I have been tutoring and helping students get the top grades in languages for over 5 years now.
I love to see my students grow in confidence, excel in Spanish, and become empowered learners who thrive in education.
I have seen lots of students struggle in GCSE languages, and I strongly believe that the thing that makes the biggest difference to struggling students is having a plan.
You don't have to struggle through on your own. When students are attending lessons and doing their homework but something just isn't clicking and their grades start falling behind their other subjects, they are simply missing the tools they need to be successful in this subject.
Spanish is a skill, and has to be learned differently from other subjects. The longer they try and struggling along on their own, the more catch up they eventually need to do.
I want to help students get through their GCSE years in one piece. So I will find the most streamlined path to success for you, and equip you with the tools you need to access the top grades in Spanish.

NHS Doctor with over 10 years of experience studying and completing exams and over 7 years teaching Maths, Biology and Chemistry for KS3, GCSE and A Level. My tuition approach is listed below.
Each lesson begins with a run-through of the topic and explanation of key concepts with opportunities for pupils to ask questions. Students are then provided with high yield exam questions and worksheets to complete. Questions are then marked together to highlight areas of strength and areas of improvement. An emphasis is always maintained on exam technique during each lesson. Assessments to determine student improvement are provided every 4-6 weeks.
All students are taught how to study effectively using two evidence-based study techniques:
1) Active Recall - Here students create useful revision questions to test their memory of certain topics
2) Spaced Repetition - Here students are taught how to strategically review topics regularly and boost their chances of remembering important exam content throughout the year and leading up to exams.
My classes are always tailored with a personalised programme for each and every student and remain friendly and engaging. All resources including specialised notes for each exam board, revision questions and exam question related to the tutees exam board are provided free of charge. Tuition goes beyond the `hour slot` as students are able to contact me via phone, email and tutor hunt messaging. I also remain engaged with the lesson and do not `clock-watch`.
For 2023, I now have a team of dedicated tutors offering tailored approaches to tuition. Please get in touch if you have any questions or preference for female tutors as this can be organised too.
Thank you for all enquiries currently, we are organising classes as soon as possible.
Spring an Summer Booster Courses will be available upon request.

Leighton Buzzard, England
As a Head of the Languages Department and Primary and Secondary Teacher in a school in Leighton Buzzard for over 10 years, I believe I am the right language tutor for you!
I'm fluent in Spanish, ( my native language) French, and English and have spent many years teaching and studying languages. I completed a bachelor's degree in Spanish and English at Manchester/ALmeria University (2008) and studied Spanish and English Literature in school (GCSE and A-Level) so I know how daunting grammar can sometimes feel and how stressful language/literature exams can be... but also how great it feels when you finally start getting it!
On the language side of things, I can help you with your writing, listening, speaking, grammar, and exam technique. I can help you with conversational skills if you're just looking to go traveling or make Spanish/French friends.
On the literature side of things, a large part of my degree was literature-based, so I would be very happy to help any Literature students if you are struggling with the subject.
If you're in school and really want to get an A/A* (7/8/9), I can make sure you achieve your goal. Whatever your current grade, an A/ A*/7/8/9 is achievable. I have taught these exams for many years so I know how they work and how you can do well in them. We will work closely with the syllabus and go through some secrets of exam technique to make sure you get a top grade.
Alternatively, if you're wanting to learn languages for travel or business purposes (or just for fun!) we can tailor the lessons 100% to suit your needs. I also teach courses to adults from beginners to advanced and I always tailored to each student's need. I also teach English to foreigners to achieve the Cambridge Examinations ( A1 to C1).
I effectively deliver and plan online outstanding lessons and the feedback that I have received from parents, pupils, and adult learners have always been very stimulating. I strongly believe in the student centered-approach as always shown in my lesson plans. I believe that all students are individuals with very specific needs so differentiation has always been at the forefront of my teaching practice. I find it very important to address any students’ needs in order to get the best potential out of every single student. I am successful in establishing high expectations of behavior in the classroom whilst still developing positive relationships with my classes.
I love online teaching as well as face to face. I have been doing online experience for the last 5 years and I have helped most of my students to achieve an excellent language level. I use Google Meets, Google Classroom, or even Skype for online teaching. I generally send and post great, fun, and genuine resources so that the student can access them easily and successfully. There are so many fun online resources that I could provide you to enhance your language skills, especially in Speaking; what a great way to speak the language with a native speaker! You will also gain a broad cultural awareness and your fluency and pronunciation will speed up!
Contact me and ask what it is that you need and I will make sure you will get the best of your language skills!
On the other hand, I am a 200hr yoga certified instructor for the last 2 years and I can give you online 1-1 lessons from beginners to more advanced practitioners. I can also give the online yoga class via zoom to you and your whole family! If you have children, you will be glad to know that I have trained to teach kids yoga and I have been organizing yoga workshops in primary and secondary schools.

Me, myself and teaching
My name is Sofía Borrego Morena and I was born in Andalusia, South of Spain; although I was living in Torroella de Montgrí, in Catalonia, for ages. Torroella is a cultural village with a huge historical past in the middle of the Costa Brava.
I am the youngest of four sisters which two of them are living in England nowadays. Moreover, I have got a son, Arnau, he is studying at Barcelona’s University. He is smarter than me and I feel very proud of him.
I studied Art History at the University of Girona. I used to be art reviewer and now I am looking for a permanent position as a teacher. My master degree and other qualifications permit me to teach some languages as: Spanish, Catalan, French and English for foreigners. I have been teaching languages for students and adults for more than 3 years. In UK, I have been teaching Spanish and French to KS3 and KS4, and I am capable to teach Spanish in KS5.
My students are a bit different than me, when I used to go to Secondary School, same problems but dissimilar behaviours. I found them very active and with clearer ideas that I used to have. For this reason, I try to training hard and catch up about all the new ways to approach to teach.
To sum up, I would be delighted to be part of your educational team at the School. I might be able to offer some substantial and enjoyable lessons.

Hola a tod@s, I`m Lizzie, an enthusiastic and succcessful secondary school Spanish and French teacher. Having achieved wonderful results with my students already, I am looking to move into tutoring to help more people access these wonderful languages!
WHY SHOULD YOU CONSIDER ME?!
I am an enthusiastic secondary school Spanish and French teacher with high aspirations for my students, supporting them to challenge themselves and achieve. I am currently studying for my Masters in Education, for which I am researching the use of mobile phones and technology to teach grammar in MFL.
In my first year as an A Level teacher I received 100% A-A* grades in my class. Last year, 88% of my Higher Spanish GCSE students received a grade 6 or above.
My teaching involves creating and delivering engaging and exciting lessons which motivate students. I enjoy incorporating technology into my classes and find the use of culture, such as music, is key to teaching languages. Recent examples of exciting lessons I have taught include a writing task on students’ phones using emojis and challenging Sixth Form students to act as a ‘government’ and come up with their own racism laws and policies, considering logistics and money, totally in target language, for one lesson.
I have a year of experience of teaching online as a secondary school teacher working during corona virus lockdown in 2020/2021. I am also completing my Masters in Education in online/mobile learning currently.

Salut! / Hola!! I`m Fabian. I`m a native and qualified teacher of French (with Spanish). I grew up in Paris and got a PGCE in Foreign Languages at the UEA in Norwich. Teaching is my passion!! I have more than 20 years experience in the field. I have worked in high schools and for business companies in France, Spain, Portugal and the UK.
I love to share my culture and knowledge of the languages I teach. I usually have a communicative approach and try to use authentic and interesting material. I truly believe that having meaningful conversations is the best way to improve one's language skills. And in the context of real conversations, , we can also improve your grammar, pronunciation and general accuracy in the language.
I can also adapt my classes to the needs of each student (business French / Spanish, conversational, preparation for interviews or examinations)
I also teach Spanish at all levels. I have lived 7 years in Spain and have a C2 level. A bientot! Hasta luego! Fabian

Tengo una licenciatura de primera clase en Periodismo y Comunicación Social. También estudié en el Consejo de Europa sobre la formación de profesores. Además, acabo de terminar mi Maestría como “Profesor Internacional de Lengua y Cultura Españolas” en la Universidad Pontificia de Salamanca en España.
Poseo un certificado de “Examinador” de acuerdo con el Marco Común Europeo en referencia a la enseñanza, aprendizaje y evaluación de idiomas en los diferentes niveles fijados por dicho marco. También estoy acreditado para certificar los estándares de español a los estudiantes que se presentan al examen DELE (Diploma de Español como Lengua Extranjera). DELE es el diploma oficial del gobierno español. Esta acreditación es muy útil, especialmente cuando los estudiantes requieren el DELE para sus estudios o trabajo.
He enseñado español como segundo idioma a estudiantes de muchos países. Siempre hago de mis alumnos el centro de mis lecciones y les doy la oportunidad de practicar el idioma tanto como sea posible. Además, tengo experiencia de más de diez años enseñando español.
