TUTOR - GCSE Spanish & A-level Spanish, Politics & Philosophy

I am a student from Bilbao currently reading Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) at the University of Durham. I have been tutoring in languages and humanities for about three years. I started tutoring in English as a Foreign Language to high school and university students in my community and in 2022 I was selected by Duolingo’s experimental project Duolingo Classes to conduct a course to prepare for the DELE B1 official Spanish exam, however, this was cut short after only three months. Nonetheless, throughout my university course, I have continued to tutor in EFL as well as A-Level Politics and A-Level Spanish.

It is hard to give a comprehensive definition for a good lesson—specially because my tutoring style is based upon three main principles: adaptability, trust and innovation. My lessons need to be adaptable depending on the student, the level and the subject. I always try to innovate bringing into the classroom scientifically-proven methods of learning, while maintaining a comfortable learning environment through trust.
