Spanish and English for secondary school Students and adults.

From 19 £ /h

Spanish is the 4th most spoken language in the world, and being able to speak another language is becoming more and more desirable. As an A* Spanish student myself, I understand how difficult it can be to grasp a language in a classroom of 30 students. During my hour of tuition I will go through conjugating tenses in depth, speaking and writing skills.

Furthermore English literature is also my strong suite as an A* English student. I specialise specifically in GCSE English literature (Edexcel exam board) but will happily tutor for any other exam board. In English tutoring sessions I will go through key themes of plays/novels in depth and set essays once the student feels more confident. Before then, I will go through sample essays to discuss what went well and what could be improved.

I offer French, Spanish, and English lessons for all levels. I help with interview preparation and university exams, as well as with lectures and oral and written exams. I assist with preparation for GCSE and A-level exams in French and Spanish, TOEFL and IELTS Academic or Life Skills tests, and I correct assignments at beginner and advanced levels. I offer academic support for children, including homework help, grammar, vocabulary, writing, composition, and conversation. The teaching methodology is tailored to each student's personality and needs.
If you've just moved to London and need some basic language skills to get by, I can help you too, even if you're traveling to a French or Spanish-speaking country.
If you're traveling and only need a few hours of lessons during your stay, then a conversation lesson while visiting London's museums or parks will be nice (let's check the weather first).

Nowadays, languages have become an important thing in the society and an added value in the work field. In my classes, I'll try to teach them the basics of each language by focusing on grammar ( english tenses , prepositions of time and place.... )and vocabulary. In addition, I'm going to assign the students with homework ( reading and writing ) so that the learning process can goes smoothly.

I truly think learning Spanish has to be enjoyable and challenging (positively) and my aim is to create a fun and positive learning environment in which you can really thrive, feel confident and tranquilo.

I like to approach my students to grammar structures and cultural comprehension of the language by a variety of methods and sources such as images, videos, interviews, audios, etc. and adjust exercises of reading, listening and conversation to topics related to their particular interests and personal motivations.

Course Description:
In this engaging and comprehensive tutoring course, students will embark on a journey through the captivating realms of English and literature. I will explore the fundamental aspects of language and delve into the intricate world of literary devices to foster a deep understanding and appreciation for these invaluable subjects.

Importance of English and Literature:
English and literature form the backbone of effective communication, critical thinking, and cultural understanding. Proficiency in these areas empowers individuals to articulate their ideas with clarity and eloquence, enhancing their professional and personal lives. Furthermore, literature provides a window into diverse cultures, historical periods, and human experiences, enabling me to empathize with others and expand my horizons.

Real-Life Applications and Value:
The skills acquired through this course will extend beyond the confines of the classroom, benefiting students in numerous aspects of their lives. Effective language usage is essential in all fields, from composing persuasive essays to delivering compelling speeches, and even communicating effectively in everyday conversations. The ability to analyze literary works enhances problem-solving skills and nurtures creativity, both of which are highly sought-after attributes in the professional world.

Course Approach:
I have designed this course to work from the very grassroots of English and literature, laying a solid foundation for students to build upon. I will start with fundamental concepts such as metaphors, similes, and personification, and gradually progress to more sophisticated literary devices such as imagery, alliteration, and foreshadowing. Each session will be interactive, encouraging students to actively participate in discussions and apply the concepts they learn.

Learning Outcomes:
By the end of this course, students will:

- Develop a profound understanding of English grammar, syntax, and vocabulary, enabling them to express themselves fluently and coherently.
- Recognize and employ various literary devices, enhancing their ability to analyze and interpret literature effectively.
- Cultivate critical thinking skills by engaging with diverse literary works and exploring different perspectives.
- Gain an appreciation for the power of language and its impact on communication and storytelling.
- Strengthen their writing skills and craft compelling narratives, essays, and creative pieces.
- Build confidence in their reading and interpretation abilities, empowering them to engage with complex texts.

Join me in this journey through the world of English and literature, where I will work with you to unlock the power of language and foster a lifelong love for the written word. Let's build a strong foundation that will serve as a solid platform for your academic excellence and personal growth.

These are personalised lessons, in either maths or English, created to do the following:

- Fill gaps in your child’s knowledge, that are preventing them from being assessed as meeting the age-related standard.

- Reinforce and cement knowledge learned in school by addressing misconceptions your child has about any topics.

- Build on existing learning and challenge your child with content that pushes them towards working at greater depth.

I have nine years experience working in schools, seven years of which have been as a qualified teacher - working across KS1 and KS2. Therefore, you can be confident that what your child is being taught is in line with the current curriculum.

NOTE: before the first lesson, it is important we arrange a brief call to discuss your child’s areas for development. As with any outstanding curriculum, we always begin by identifying specific gaps so subsequent lessons can be produced to close them.

I can travel a 5 mile radius from my location, anything outside would need to be held online.
