I have been teaching Spanish to GCSE and A-Level students and adults since graduating from the University of Cambridge in 2012 with a degree (BA and MA [Hons]) in Modern Languages. I focus on speaking and grammar, and reintroducing a love of the language. When we get closer to the exam period, I focus on exam technique and giving the examiners what they are looking for.

My exam guide for GCSE Spanish and German students have been published and are currently available on Amazon, and I am also the designer for these courses on the study app and website Study Rocket!

About Me
I work as an actor, writer and director in London. Having graduated with a degree and MA (Hons) in Modern Languages from Cambridge, I have taught languages, sport, and drama in Britain and Latin America and also worked extensively in Theatre in Education. Many of my GCSE students carry on to A-Level because of their new-found skills and love of the subject, and 100% of my A Level tutees have got into their first choice universities, including Oxbridge. I have worked as a journalist in Mexico and London, as well as in radio in Argentina, Cambridge and London. I am also a published author, recently releasing an exam guide for GCSE Spanish and GCSE German students available on Amazon, as well as the course designer for study app and website Study Rocket.

I believe that every student is unique and should be treated as such, with the lessons structured according to the individual’s needs and goals. I like to establish a good rapport and to create a different environment to school, in which one can learn with enjoyment, and without fear of mistakes.
