I studied Languages and Tourism at the Universidad de Jaén (Spain) and spent a year in France at Université de Metz as part of my studies. After completing my PGCE at University of Roehampton in London, I worked for three years in a Secondary school in London, where I taught Spanish and French. Prior to that, I had taught Spanish in a primary school in London. Before becoming a teacher, I worked in an IT company in Spain as a translator of websites and software. I have a passion for teaching my language and culture, as I believe that learning a foreign language broadens pupils’ minds and raises their awareness and understanding of the wider world.
