I specify in tutoring English (grammar, reading, writing etc.) for foreign students preparing for school or university exams or who simply wish to practice the language. I can offer conversation practice for those wishing to advance particularly in their Spanish oral. I am a native speaker and can design a programme of lessons to suit the student's needs. If you would like to be assigned homework, this can be incorporated into the programme, and if you would prefer to adopt a more laid-back approach, this can also be provided for. I have experience teaching languages and am determined to make this experience as enjoyable as possible for those wishing to learn!

About Me
I am a hard working, enthusiastic student, having just completed my penultimate year at the University of Edinburgh studying Spanish and English Literature.

During my second year at university, I volunteered writing lesson plans and delivering Spanish lessons at a local primary school where there was a severe lack of language, human and other resources available. I worked in coordination with the students’ learning objectives in order to deliver rigorous content in a professional and inspiring way. Following this experience, I have volunteered for Walsingham Support during the Covid-19 pandemic. The charity provides support for individuals with learning difficulties, autism, brain injuries and complex needs. I teach Spanish to a small group of adults each week over video call to provide some educational respite during this unsettling time. On the back of these volunteering opportunities, I have experience with disadvantaged or struggling students and adopt an approach that combines audiovisual learning with more conventional teaching methods to ensure that my tutoring is both engaging and rigorous.

Hello! I'm Miya, a languages graduate (Spanish, French, Italian, English) and I love learning languages, so I understand first-hand how challenging it can be to learn and practise speaking a new language.

Classes can be:

- grammar based: doing exercises and translations
- from beginner to advanced levels of English

I have experience teaching English in language academies to people of all ages and abilities. I teach Cambridge, Trinity and EOI exams, as well as group child classes.

I am open to doing classes online (via Zoom or Skype) and we can meet at an agreed location in the city.

I provide the same approach to my History/Art History classes.

English isn't learned just by memorizing grammar and lists of irregular verbs; it's learned by using it. If you struggle to speak fluently, are embarrassed by making mistakes, need to pass an official exam, or want to enhance your professional profile, I can help you take the leap!

Personalized tutoring for primary and secondary school students. Support with homework, exam preparation, and improved study habits, with clear explanations adapted to each student's pace. Close attention and continuous monitoring to build confidence and improve results.

Personalized approach: Sessions are fully adapted to your goals and needs, according to your situation.
Depending on the student's academic studies, the classes will be designed to enhance their knowledge at that stage of their education. We can use the student's textbooks or materials I prepare for each class. If there are any questions or concepts that haven't been fully grasped, we can review the material from the beginning.

I teach using the communicative method, keeping students actively engaged throughout every lesson rather than passively absorbing grammar rules. Real communication (speaking, listening, reacting, negotiating meaning) sits at the center of everything I do, with grammar and vocabulary introduced as tools to support that communication, not as the goal itself.

After seven-plus years of teaching, I've learned that the specifics of "what" a student needs matter far less than "how" we get there. What really moves the needle is connection and motivation. I invest in understanding what genuinely interests and drives each student, and I build lessons around that, because engagement, not just method, is what makes language actually stick.

I work with a wide range of learners: university students needing English for health sciences and biotechnology, adults preparing for exams, professionals wanting workplace fluency, and general learners at any level. Whatever your background or goal, I can design and prepare original materials specifically for you, and adapt the pace and focus as we go.

For me, teaching isn't just about sitting down and doing worksheets or memorizing lessons from the book. My main goal is for you to stop feeling stressed or stuck with your studies, to understand the reasons behind things, and above all, to realize everything you're capable of achieving when the material is explained at your own pace.

In our sessions, you'll learn to understand the material logically and practically, without mindless memorization. Whether it's English, language arts, or general academic support, we'll use clear outlines, visual aids, everyday examples, and simple tricks. We'll also discover together which study techniques work best for you—whether through mind maps, visual summaries, or hands-on activities—so you can make the most of your time. Gradually, you'll gain confidence and independence in organizing your tasks and taking exams with ease, completely overcoming the fear of making mistakes, because in my classes, errors are simply a clue to explaining something in a different way.
