Hola! 

I'm a private tutor and Spanish native artist with residence in Brighton since 1991. I'm a Sussex University Psychology graduate who also works as a translator for various Spanish art and literature publications.

I've been teaching Spanish for nearly twenty years and my lessons cover all levels and needs. I'm currently teaching Spanish for beginners, conversation, children, expats, GCSE, A Level, business, holidays, etc. I teach both face-to-face and online. 

As a teacher, I'm quite flexible and am always happy to tailor any lessons given to best suit my students' needs and their  learning pace. Our first lesson will be an assessment and a brief Spanish go to best find out your needs and set up any relevant goals. Obviously, we will be working from day one on boosting your confidence plus phonetics, reading, writing, conversation, etc. 

Please, message me if you have any questions. 

Looking forward to hearing from you. 

Hasta luego, 

Daniel
