English is a very desirable skill to have in a competitive job market, and it's helpful to have for social situations, too! My classes are tailored to you and your preferences. If you would like to focus on certain topics or prefer conversation, grammar, or listening, I will cater it to you. I can work with both children and adults and we will make it fun!

Do you need to pass a Cambridge exam? Or IELTS/TOEFL? Then I am the teacher for you!

I specialise in preparing students for Cambridge exams (FCE, FCE For Schools, CAE and Proficiency), as well as other exams such as TOEFL/TOEIC and IELTS.

I have successfully prepared dozens of learners from Madrid for their Cambridge exams since 2015. I can provide you with all the insights and tips and strategies that I have picked up over the years to make sure that you pass your exam with the score that you need. I have a huge amount of online materials and resources (which can also be accessed during in-person classes).

This course emphasizes the fundamental language skills of reading, writing, speaking, listening, thinking, viewing and presenting. An emphasis on vocabulary and composition skills will be an on-going part of the program. The course includes studies of various literary genres: short story, general topics of daily life and activities. The development of critical reading and writing skills is a major emphasis of the course.

I have a degree in Spanish and foreign languages, and I offer personalized classes with goals in each lesson. Learning English is not just about learning to speak a language, it is also about learning a little about the culture and everything that surrounds this wonderful language. Let's learn to speak while we get to know corners of the world and cultures that we have never seen before!

This class is for students from A1 to C1 of the MECR. The objective and goal of each class depends on the long-term goal you have in mind :)

Hello! Here are some details about my teaching method.

• Initial evaluation

Before starting, I assess the student's level to identify their strengths, areas for improvement, and learning objectives.

• Dynamic and comprehensive methodology

The classes are designed to be motivating and participatory, working in a balanced way on the main language skills:
- Grammar: understanding and correct use of grammar.
- Writing: clear and creative writing.
- Listening: listening comprehension through audio, songs and videos.
- Vocabulary: learning new words in practical contexts.

• Resources and activities

I use a variety of interactive materials for children to enjoy while they learn: games, adapted readings, songs, digital activities, and practical exercises that strengthen confidence and motivation.

• School support

I provide homework support, exam preparation, and guided practice for oral presentations, reinforcing students' confidence in expressing themselves in English in the academic setting.

• Focus on communication

In addition to academic content, I place special emphasis on pronunciation and conversation, fostering fluency and confidence in communicating in real-life situations.

• Modality and flexibility
• In-person or online classes (depending on availability).
• Flexible schedules, adapted to the needs of each family.

I am a primary school teacher specializing in therapeutic pedagogy. I am currently studying early childhood education. I offer private tutoring to children in need, primarily for academic support and study skills, as well as math and language classes in primary and secondary school.

I have a C1 level of English certification, so I can also teach all bilingual subjects (English, Science, Social Studies). I have extensive experience working with students with learning disabilities (ADHD, Dyslexia, ASD, Developmental Delay, etc.).

The methodology is enjoyable, with dynamic classes and self-made materials (diagrams, notes, manipulative materials, etc.) always based on the needs and requirements of the student.

I am currently a third-year student pursuing a double degree in Philosophy and Social Studies at the University of Madrid (UCM). I have one year of experience teaching private tutoring and English classes. I offer classes in any subject from elementary to high school. However, I specialize in English and humanities and social sciences, which constitute my current field of study.
My one-year stay in Dublin allows me to introduce my students to the English language more deeply, thereby instilling my passion for teaching and learning it. I also learned firsthand the study and examination methods at Cambridge, an institution from which I hold a C1, although my ongoing language training means I currently have a C2 level.
In my classes, I try to tailor the content to the students' unique characteristics and interests to achieve the desired results as effectively as possible, while also improving their relationship with their studies and passion for knowledge.

My name is Paula, and I'm a student with an advanced level of English and a great passion for languages. I offer private English lessons tailored to each student's needs, for primary school students.

Do you find it difficult to express yourself in English even though you understand quite a bit? Would you like to speak with more confidence, naturalness, and fluency?

My name is Álvaro and I have experience living in the United States and Ireland, as well as a TEFL – Full Circle 360 qualification specializing in teaching English as a foreign language.

My classes are especially focused on improving oral expression and helping you feel comfortable speaking English in real-life situations.

We will work primarily through:

🗣️ Everyday conversations and situations
💬 Debates and expression of opinions
🎲 Games and activities to help you speak naturally
🎬 Movies, series, videos and songs
🌍 Travel, culture and experiences
🎭 Role plays and real-life situations
📖 Useful vocabulary and expressions to help you communicate better
🔊 Pronunciation and fluency

The idea is for you to speak from the very first minute. During our conversations, I'll correct your mistakes and help you find more natural ways to express yourself, always adapting to your level.

I'm not looking for you to memorize endless vocabulary lists: I want you to learn to use English to truly communicate and gradually lose your fear of speaking.

The classes are fully adapted to your level, interests and goals, whether you are starting out or already have a good level and want to gain fluency.

I have a deep passion and innate interest in teaching French, which stems from my own experience. At the age of 13, my mother, who studied at the Sorbonne in Paris, began teaching me before I received any formal schooling. Learning this first foreign language broadened my horizons and opened up numerous opportunities, not only socially, but especially professionally.

I recognize that my students' goals and motivations will vary considerably. Therefore, one of the fundamental principles of a good teacher is to understand these individual motivations and use them to guide curriculum development and teaching methods.

Learning a language should help you communicate, not make you afraid of making mistakes.
I am a philologist, language teacher, and doctoral researcher with over eight years of experience teaching Spanish to students from various countries and proficiency levels. Above all, I recognize that everyone learns differently.
That is why my classes are tailored to you—to your level, your interests, and your specific goals. We can focus on conversation, grammar, pronunciation, writing, or Spanish and English for work, studies, travel, or simply to help you speak with greater confidence.
I enjoy explaining the "why" behind things clearly and simply, without turning the lesson into an endless stream of rules. We will work with real-life situations, topics that interest you, and concrete objectives so you can see your progress firsthand.
Whether you have studied a language for years but still freeze up when speaking, understand far more than you can express, or simply want to start from scratch with a solid foundation, we can work together.
My goal is simple: for you to need me less and less as you become increasingly capable of handling the language on your own.
Tell me what you want to achieve, and we’ll design your lessons around that.
