My Summary
About Me
I am a dedicated Spanish and Psychology tutor with an MSc in Psychology, TEFL certification, and expertise in Special Educational Needs (SEN) support. As a native Spanish speaker and experienced educator, I provide tailored lessons focusing on fluency, grammar, and cultural insights, as well as academic support for psychology students. My background in mental health, inclusion, and student welfare ensures a supportive learning environment.
I provide 1:1 and group sessions for students across:
• Early years (Nursery / Reception)
• KS1-KS4 / Primary-Secondary School
• A-Level (Mathematics, English, Psychology, Business, Spanish)
• Homework assistance
• Spanish sessions for any age
• Phonics and reading intervention
My holistic, inclusive approach ensures that every student receives personalized, engaging, and effective learning support.
My Experience
With 4 years of experience in education, mental health, and student welfare, I have worked with students aged 3 to 18 years old, helping them develop confidence and improve their academic performance. I offer 1:1 and group sessions online via Zoom or face to face, ensuring students receive interactive, engaging, and personalized lessons. My sessions incorporate digital whiteboard illustrations, educational games, and creative activities to keep students motivated and actively learning. I also encourage reflective journaling to help students track their progress and set learning goals.
My approach is tailored to each student’s learning style, ensuring they stay on track and reach their full potential. Additionally, I have experience working with SEN students, including those with Autism, ADHD, and Dyslexia, offering a patient and structured learning environment.
*Online tutoring offers enhanced convenience, removes the need for travel, and enables students to study in a secure and familiar environment. Whether it’s building foundational skills or boosting confidence, my goal is to make learning a fun, rewarding, and successful experience for every student.
