My experience as a Human Resources Manager and Training and Development Officer in the South African National Defence Force (23 years of service), as well at Defence Foreign Relations (DFR) environment will ensure my Business English classes are of high quality, well planned, structured and professional. I am results driven and will ensure my students achieve the highest achievement possible and reach their personal goals.

I also studied through Southern Business School (SBS) my Bachelor in Business Administration (BBA) Degree, with major electives in Management and Human Resources Management.

My experience in the HR environment and especially the diplomatic environment prepared me for any future teaching environments and challenges. As a people person I want to see people exceed in their ambitions and I will be an excellent English Teacher teaching Business English and General English.

ENG - Whether you are a beginner or an advanced English speaker, my classes focus on English learning for children, students, and adults who have difficulty speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Whether your goal is to boost your professionalism, improve your writing style, or simply enhance your knowledge, I intend to help you reach it! In the beginning session(s), I work with you to determine your level of expertise and comfortability with the language, pinpointing areas that may need extra attention. Together, we would go through the rules, structure, and other aspects of the English language that you should be aware of, assessing your knowledge through interactive activities geared toward topics that interest you. In our meetings, my intention is to help you improve your communication skills by strengthening areas of weakness, whether in vocabulary and grammar, verbal/reading comprehension, holding conversations, pronunciation, or any other area you hope to work on. At the end of each session, I like to provide valuable feedback about your progress and assign helpful practice work to enhance your understanding of the practical and theoretical aspects of the English language.

Through these one-on-one sessions, my priority is to keep it engaging and stimulating, tailoring the classes to you and your preferences!

Hello! My name is Lucía and I am a language teacher, translator and interpreter from English to Spanish, and social communicator. I teach Spanish or English lessons at all levels, both in person in the Madrid area and online. I have studied social communication and journalism, and I am certified as a teacher with CELTA through Cambridge University; all this, combined with years of experience as a teacher and interpreter, allows me to apply a variety and wealth of knowledge to my classes.

As someone who has lived in many different countries and contexts, I firmly believe that the process of learning a language is about much more than memorizing grammar and vocabulary, it is about opening a window into the culture, history, and unique life perspective of its speakers. For this reason, I design my lessons not only with the aim of improving your language skills, but also to introduce you to the experience of immersing yourself in the cultural contexts that determine the way people use language in real life. My approach is to create and structure each class session according to your individual needs, helping you to try out and discover the learning methods that best suit your style, a key process to discover your potential for both cultural understanding and effective, fluent communication.

Whether you want to improve your Spanish or English for personal, professional or academic reasons, I am here to accompany you every step of the way. Let's turn your language learning process into a journey of exciting discovery!
