About Sandy
- What kind of experience do you have?
I have been teaching Spanish (my native language) for over 10 years to students of all ages - from adult learners to students preparing for their school and university exams. I am currently the Head Teacher for a UK-based school called Spanish Marks. I have also worked in a Spanish school called Eureka in Quetzaltenango (Guatemala), and have a lot of experience preparing students for school exams. I also have written Spanish languge textbooks for schools.
I take my lessons through an online classroom where we can see and speak to each other. It is like being in a real classroom since we are speaking directly with each other and there is a whiteboard. The advantages are that you can learn from any location, including your own home. I adapt each lesson to my student's needs and experience, going through a range of exercises including speaking, reading and writing. After each lesson, I give a feedback report, lesson chapters and homework exercises after every lesson.
- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?
Yes - this can be provided on request.

- Describe your arrangements for online tutoring.
I teach through an online classroom where we can see and speak to each other. The lesson material is up on the screen at the same time. It is very easy to use and I would send you a link to access the classroom. It means that you can learn from the comfort of your own home or any location convenient for you. Parents are welcome to sit in on any lessons. My rates are also a lot more affordable than other tutors.
- Do you have a personal message for students?
I love to work as a teacher because it lets me get to know other cultures and customs. I also get a lot of satisfaction from allowing my students reach their personal goals! My promise to you is a teacher who you feel comfortable with, great results and personalised attention.
Other than teaching, I have worked in women's rights charities and my passion and knowledge in these areas make my classes all that more interesting! I love to read and cook, especially making desserts!
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
As a complete beginner I started learning Spanish with Karina about 6 months ago. She is such a good teacher and I can't recommend her highly enough. She is extremely patient since I am a complete beginner and is happy to go over points (often more than once!). We manage to do both theory and speaking in each session and she tailors the class to exactly what I want to do.
Moreover the flexibility of arranging my class at any time is really convenient for me. I would highly recommend Karina!My teacher, Karina, is very attentive, knowledgeable, and keeps me on track if I get off topic. I like how she asks questions to keep me involved in the conversation instead of just talking like other teachers would. The school she works with are so flexible if you want to change the date or time of your lesson too. It is the best way for me to practice my Spanish when I want to. Thank you Karina!
I have my lessons with Karina conveniently on my lunch breaks at work. She is great! I am only a beginner so get a lot wrong but she always makes me feel good about it and helps me understand where my mistakes are. I would greatly recommend to all, I really feel I am progressing and I have only had 4 or so lessons!
I have never had Spanish lessons before and learnt so much just within the first lesson! Karina was super friendly and a great teacher! I am really looking forward to having more lessons before I go to Costa Rica.
I've been having lessons with Karina for the past 2 months and absolutely love it! The classes are great fun with the right level of structure, and I feel like I'm making significant progress. Karina pitches lesson perfectly for my level and even goes out of her way to send me customised homework exercises. What's more I work irregular work patterns and she is always willing to re-arrange my class timings at a drop of a notice. I can thoroughly recommend Karina.
I've been having lessons with Sandy for a couple of months now and could not have asked for a better teacher. Sandy knows how to adapt her style to her students, and has been incredibly patient and encouraging to me as a beginner. I really appreciate the fact that I get extra homework exercises, specifically written out for areas I am struggling in and a feedback report after every lesson. I can't tell you how much I enjoy my lessons and look forward to them as the highlight of my week! Thank you for all your help so far!
As a complete beginner I started learning Spanish with Sandy about a year ago.
She is an excellent teacher and I can't praise her enough. Her lessons are interesting and well structured. She is extremely patient and makes sure I understand every aspect of the class. We manage to do both theory and speaking in each session and she tailors the class to exactly what I want to do.
Moreover the flexibility of arranging my class at any time that suits me is brilliant.
I would highly recommend Sandy.View more recommendations
