Quote Icon This course is ideal for:

If you are looking for a Spanish class during the day and preferably late morning – early afternoon, right before the school run, this is the one for you.

This is the right class for you if you know some Spanish, if you are able to communicate in Spanish with basic sentences – and your problem is that you are finding it hard to speak. I will work on upping your confidence and getting you to speak with ease. By the end of this course you should be able to converse about yourself and your family with a greater depth of knowledge, with the aim at being able to speak for about 15-20 minutes with minimal interruptions.

This course is suitable for people who have completed our Beginners Programme and/or Improvers 1, or who have a good knowledge of basic Spanish but would like to develop their confidence, vocabulary and speaking and listening skills for ordinary situations before progressing to more challenging grammar. By the end of this course you will have learnt how to:

  • chat about Activities, Bodies, Clothes and Destinations
  • use regular present tense verbs with confidence
  • understand and use adverbs of time and frequency

About

Bonjour/Ciao/¡Hola! I’m French-Italian and I speak Spanish. Growing up on the French Riviera near Italy sparked my love for languages. I studied Music and Languages then moved to the UK for 9 months, and several decades later, I'm still here!

After successfully using my languages in Banking and IT, I became a language teacher and have been teaching for the past 20+ years. I am cheerful, patient and enthusiastic. I am good at helping people of all levels overcome their fear of speaking a foreign language, focusing on building confidence and having fun.
Holidays are spent in France, Italy or Spain with my husband and our two boys, who are brought up bilingually in French but are also learning Spanish and Italian.
I sing in my spare time, walk the dog, look after friends' dogs and grow plants, usually fruit and veg. I love foraging so my children are used to eating "spinach" of dubious provenance. I also teach GCSE and A Level to whomever needs a boost with their exams.
