Personal Description:
My name is Lucy, I am 30 years old and I am a qualified language teacher. I specialize in Spanish, French and English language.
I moved to Barcelona when I was twelve years old and lived and worked there until the age of 24. Not only do I speak Spanish fluently but I also have a very high knowledge of colloquial Spanish and a perfect pronunciation.
I started learning French in 2015 after meeting my French partner. I am now also fluent in French and it is our main language spoken at home. I love teaching and I am a very patient teacher.
I am a mother of two, which gives me great experience teaching young children as well as adults.
Teaching Experience:
I have experience tutoring GCSE Spanish and French in high schools across Norwich, England as well as experience teaching English in different language schools and academies where I teach adults, young children and teenagers. I have experience teaching priva**Contact Detail Removed**ssons to adults of all ages. I have a passion for languages and love sharing my knowledge.
I also prepare students for exams like A LEVELS, IELTS, CPE, FCE, PET, GESE and BEC (business English)
Teaching Approach:
My lessons are specifically tailored to each students individual needs and interests. My lessons are interesting, fun and interactive. I teach reading, speaking, writing and listening. My lessons include interesting articles to read, fun games to play and debates among other interesting topics.
I am also able to prepare you for any exam level necessary.

Reply from: Lucy: Thank you Katya!
From Janet (/5): Lucy is currently tutoring my daughter Spanish, and has been doing so for a year. My daughter began learning Spanish in Year 7. When 'lock-down' occurred her school made changes to her curriculum and my daughter had to stop studying Spanish at school and take up Mandarin. My daughter wanted to study GCSE Spanish in Year 10 so we found Lucy on FirstTutors and continued with Spanish at home. Lucy is thorough in her teaching style and professional in approach. She has a good understanding of the KS3 curriculum and has taught my daughter to speak Spanish with confidence. My daughter loves Spanish even more and talks to us in Spanish at home. Lucy has identified the gaps in my daughters' knowledge and plugged them, she provides me with feedback on my daughters' progress and needless to say my daughters' secondary school have permitted her to study GCSE Spanish despite my daughter not studying it at school for 2 Years. We are very happy and intend to continue with Lucy through to GCSE.
Reply from: Lucy: Thank you so much for your lovely feedback back Janet. It is such a pleasure teaching your daughter and seeing her progress in Spanish.
From Tracey (/5): Lucy is my daughter's tutor for GCSE Spanish. My daughter looks forward to her lesson each week and says she learns more from her lesson with Lucy than she does at school. She is feeling more confident in her Spanish and it is improving her performance in class at school.
From Sarah (/5): Lucy is excellent and has improved my daughter's ability and confidence rapidly
Reply from: Lucy: Thank you so much Sarah for your feedback. Louise is such a hard working student and I really enjoy teaching her.
From Louise (/5): I cannot recommend Lucy enough.
We are learning Spanish at the ages of 34 and 42, with no previous knowledge. Neither of us are quick learners. My partners first language is Hebrew and he has ADHD and Lucy has been so patient with us and kept us interested and we have learnt alot quicker than we thought we would. We really have fun in our lessons and Lucy is great at adapting our sessions to suit what is best for our learning styles.
Gracias Lucy X

Reply from: Lucy: Thank you so much Louise for your feedback. I have a lot of fun in our lessons and you are both great students!
From Donna (/5): Lucy was very quick to respond to my enquiry which i made for a colleague, she asked lots of questions to make sure she could tailor make her lessons to fit her relevant requirements. My colleague thoroughly enjoyed her first lesson and came away very enthusiastic for more.
Reply from: Lucy: Thank you very much for your feedback Donna. I’ve really enjoyed teaching Agnes this week and I look forward to helping her with her business English.
From Gemma (/5): Lucy has really has made it easy to go back to learning. She is very friendly and professional. My husband and i are not the best students but she is patience and understanding.
The lessons are good fun, we have a giggle and also learn the language in a useful way. Not just repeating verb formats.

Reply from: Lucy: Thank you Gemma for your review! I’m really enjoying our online lessons and watching you both progress.
From Emma (/5): Lucy tutored Phebe, my daughter, for her Spanish GCSE (unavailable in School). We cannot recommend her highly enough. She is very professional, yet informal and easy-going. She related extremely well to Phebe - who says her sessions were fun and interesting, whilst she also ensured that the Board specification was comprehensively covered. Consequently, Phebe sat her exams confidently - looking forward to them and even enjoying them! Phebe is now really positive about progressing onto Spanish 'A' Level at Sixth Form. This wouldn't have been possible without Lucy, and we hope to maintain her Tutor input simply because she's brilliant!
Reply from: Lucy: I am really grateful for such positive feedback. Phebe had been such a hard working student and she really deserves top marks in her Spanish GCSE. I am glad to have helped Phebe achieve her goals and I wish her all the best with her Spanish A-Level for the future. Many thanks.
From Richard (/5): Lucy is teaching my 5 year old son Spanish and he is really enjoying it and making good progress. I would recommend as a Spanish tutor
Reply from: Lucy: Thank you for your feedback Richard. I hope you all have a lovely Christmas and I look forward to continuing our lessons in the new year.
From Jackie (/5): Lucy is very patient and understanding, we are enjoying our lessons very much. Hoping to put into practice what we have learnt so far.

From Mariusz (/5): Since I've been attending Lucy's classes I have progressed very quickly with my Spanish. I feel challenged on the right level for me which motivates me even more. Classes are always prepared well and are fun. Lucy is flexible with times which makes it easier to fit in to my busy schedule. I have already recommended her to my friends and I'm very great full for her help.
