I'm a Spanish teacher helping complete beginners go from zero to speaking real, everyday
Spanish with confidence.
But before I tell you about how I teach, I want to tell you something more important: I know exactly
what you're going through right now.
Because I've been there myself. More than once.
That feeling — of trying to say something and not finding the words — is
something I’ve never forgotten. And it’s why I teach the way I do.
When I finished my studies, I started working as a teacher in language schools and primary schools
in London.
And it was there that I discovered something I hadn’t expected: teaching languages wasn’t just a
job for me.
I genuinely loved it. Especially that moment — the one where a student suddenly realises they’ve
just understood something new, or said their first proper sentence in another language. That look on
their face. I never got tired of it.
Then came COVID and Brexit, and I decided to start a new adventure: I moved to Milan.
I arrived in 2020, with all the schools closed, so I had no choice but to start teaching online. At first it
felt strange — even a little unsettling, because I’d never taught from behind a screen before.
But little by little I discovered something that changed how I work: online I could create more
dynamic, more visual, far more personalised classes.
And while I was living in Milan, something important happened to me again.
I learned Italian from scratch.
I felt the frustration all over again. The mental blocks when trying to speak. The feeling of not finding
the words. But also — the joy of slowly starting to understand. Of having a real conversation for the
first time.
Being a language teacher who has to learn a language from zero again is one
of the best things that can happen to you. It reminds you of everything.
All of those experiences changed how I teach.
Because now I know very well what it feels like to start a language from zero. The fear of speaking,
the frustration of not progressing fast enough, the moments when you wonder if you’ll ever get
there.
That’s why my classes are designed for beginners who want to learn Spanish calmly, practically,
and without pressure.
We start with what’s useful — real, everyday Spanish. And we move forward step by step, so you
feel more confident each time you speak.
Learning a language isn’t about doing it perfectly. It’s about daring to use it.
Beyond the classes, here are a few small things that are also part of my everyday life.
and now living in Granada — a beautiful city in the south of Spain.
— in London and Milan — where I kept learning new languages and cultures.
where — funnily enough — I'm also a beginner. So I never forget what it feels like to learn something new from scratch.
it's a good café con leche.
I believe learning a language can change a lot of things.
The way you travel. The people you meet. The confidence you feel when you can actually communicate.
But it all starts the same way:
taking the first step.
If you’re starting out with Spanish and you’re not quite sure where to begin, we can have a virtual
coffee. A relaxed chat to get to know each other, see where you are, and find out how I can help
you.
