About Carmen
I'm an arts-loving Spanish native from Granada and an officially certified teacher of my language with extensive professional experience. I have a master's degree in teaching Spanish and a degree in philosophy. I live in east London and offer private lessons to adult learners from Tuesday to Friday, 10am to 5pm, in person at my place, in public places nearby or online. I love helping people to speak my language, and can't wait to help you!

There’s an old saying that when the pupil is ready, the teacher appears. So if you’re ready to take your first steps in Spanish, or you’d like to speak it more fluently and with greater flair, I’m here to help!
Teaching this beautiful language is my full-time job and my passion. I create my own lessons, which are tailored to your needs as well as your interests. If you’re a beginner, I’ll help you understand exactly what you need to know to get speaking. Concepts are explained simply and with clarity, and you’ll be talking in Spanish from the first lesson.
With more advanced students, I love to combine relevant exercises with conversations about whatever interests you, fixing errors and enriching vocabulary** and sentence construction as we go. Over the years I’ve found myself discussing Don Quixote, navigation, global politics, animation, Uruguayan music, microbiology, family trees and a whole lot more. Talking and sharing ideas is another passion of mine - you can take the girl out of southern Spain, but you can’t take southern Spain out of the girl!
As I hope you’ll have gathered, I love what I do, and I know what I’m doing: I have a master’s degree in teaching Spanish as a foreign language from the Autonomous University of Madrid, a degree in Philosophy from the University of Granada, and ten years of experience teaching Spanish for travel, business, academia and medicine, as well as Hispanic literature and much besides.
All my lessons are for adult learners and last one hour. I have a 48-hour cancellation policy and I'm available from Tuesday to Friday, from 10am to 5pm London time. Watch the video to find out more about my lessons!
**arrebol = the red-pink colour that clouds turn at sunset. (You can have this word - my favourite - for free!)

Carmen is really an amazing teacher. She mixes fun conversation with grammar practice. She really wants you to learn and improve and pushes you but does so in a way that keeps you engaged. She also keeps track of and corrects your grammar errors at the right moments in the conversation or exercises.
If you’re thinking about learning Spanish, I highly recommend that you learn with Carmen. She is a very professional and brilliant language tutor, I’ve tried a few different learning methods over the years, other tutors, books, audio, but Carmen really stands out with her enthusiasm to help you learn, the structure of her class and the personalised homework! Carmen has helped me to understand way more than I have done in the past, and it’s a joy to be learning this beautiful language with her!
Carmen has been my Spanish teacher for over a year. She is extremely reliable, patient, and serious about her work. She has a winning personality and loves to laugh. She goes about the work methodically, corrects my errors in a constructive manner, yet is very flexible in the sense of responding to any immediate needs or questions I have, or with needed schedule changes. She is simply a lovely person, which has made studying with her a joy, and thus it has been quite fruitful. I have learned a lot. Do not think that I am exaggerating here, I'm certain she is just as good with other students as she has been with me. And working with her will be a pleasure for whomever has the luck to have her as a teacher.
Carmen has a natural talent for identifying the strengths and weaknesses of her students and pitches her content perfectly. She has an infectious enthusiasm for sharing her native language, is very patient and her preparation for each lesson is always complete and incorporates refreshingly original content. Carmen is a delight to spend time with, a totally engaging personality and we feel most fortunate to have found her.
