Instructor
I am an English teacher from the south coast of the United Kingdom, but based in sunny Seville, in Spain.
I have been teaching English as a foreign language for 6 years and have loved every minute of it. I teach all ages and levels, from children as young as 4 to adults as old 85! My classes are fun and engaging and I do my best to support my students in every way to help them get the results they need.
I place a strong emphasis on helping students improve their pronunciation to help them speak English more naturally, focusing on individual sounds, as well as stress and intonation.
I am a speaking examiner for the Cambridge University adult and young learner exams. I have a wealth of experience supporting students to pass the Cambridge exams including KET, PET and FCE, as well as the Cambridge Young Learners Exams (YLE): Starters, Movers and Flyers.
I hope to see you soon on one of my courses! Happy learning! :-)
