Insegnante di italki dal 19 Aug 2021Argomento di interesseMusicaLetturaSalute
Hi everyone!
I’m a British Spanish certified teacher with over 20 years’ experience in both the UK and Spain. I have lived half of my life in both countries and feel very fortunate to have such a strong connection to both places!
I love languages, travelling and anything to do with world cultures and history. I’m also a big fan of music, movement and dance. One of my biggest passions is flamenco dance, I have studied and enjoyed the art form for the last 20 years in different parts of Andalusia.
I am also fascinated by India and Nepal. I am an experienced yoga teacher and love exploring beauty spots in nature and swimming in the sea!Che tipo di insegnante sono
I love teaching and I have taught English and Spanish for the last 20 years in language schools and universities, including online for the last two years. I have taught students of all ages, ranging from very young learners to senior students of all levels, specialising in Cambridge exams, business English and International Relations.
I have also worked as a Director of Studies for a college programme on the campus of St Hughes’ College, Oxford University. Besides this I have worked as Centre Director for the academic conference programme at Cardiff University.
I especially enjoy teaching on Italki as I can personalise classes to focus on students' needs and goals!Le mie lezioni e il mio metodo di insegnamento
My classes are fun, interesting and engaging. I am most definitely a people person and I centre the classes around student based interactive learning and effective communication skills.
I like to personalise lessons and give a clear, structured approach to learning, building customised, constructive learning plans for you to achieve your goals and be motivated to push yourselves that bit further!
As a coach I use different stategies to help you to break through barriers and take ownership of your own language learning. Through self reflection, confidence building and critical evaluation you will take your English to the next level and become an empowered, independent language learner!Il mio materiale didattico

Clara, by far, is among the best teachers that I've ever had. She was born with the talent and the will to teach others.

My experience with Clara was amazing! My personal situation was very challenging because I was run out of time to prepare an official exam, but she took the risk. She's very funny and committed. Her tips are gold, and you feel your own improvement quickly with them. Don't hesitate to learn English, for sure the best choice :)
¡Mi experiencia con Clara ha sido buenísima! Mi situación era un verdadero desafío, porque tenía muy poco tiempo para prepararme un examen oficial, pero lo asumió sin problema. Aunque sabe español, las clases son siempre en inglés, así que la práctica es constante. Ella es muy divertida y está muy comprometida con sus clases. Sus consejos valen como el oro y siente que mejoras muy rápido gracias a ellos. No dudes en aprender inglés con ella porque te aseguro que ¡es la mejor elección! :)

I am always impressed by the quality of learning offered by Clara. Grammatical structures, expressions, new vocabulary ... continually intersect our very fruitful conversations to feel comfortable.
Highly recommended teacher !
