About me

My name is Hannah and I am a Spanish and Portuguese graduate from the University of Nottingham. I have passion for travel, culture and languages that I would like to share with you. I lived in Spain and Latin America for a year whereby I became fluent in both languages. I grew up in Kent where I studied Spanish at GCSE and A Level before going on to study Portuguese for beginners at University. I then completed a Spanish and Portuguese degree at University of Nottingham.

I have experience of tutoring and teaching at all levels. I am also a TEFL qualified teacher of English as a Foreign Language and I lived in Spain for 6 months teaching English to children, through the British Council, and to adults. I have taught individuals and small groups with varying needs. At the moment I am teaching across West Sussex. Although my Spanish tuition varies depending on my students` needs, I like to ensure that all of my tutees feel relaxed, happy, comfortable to ask questions and enjoy my sessions. For children I use lots of interactive and creative activities including games and songs, but this is be tailored to the child`s interests and learning style. For adults the sessions will vary according to your level and needs… Beginners will start off with a handful of useful phrases which I will explain and practise with you so that you can pop straight over to Spain and order a coffee or barter in a market! We will then progress in a structured manner combining grammar with vocabulary. Intermediate and advanced levels will be tailored according to your requirements, for example to cover the A-level syllabus or to help you with the subjunctive tense.

I am available weekdays and weekends at any time.
