About Me

I am a Spanish/American tutor raised in London. My favorite subjects to teach are 11+ admissions, English Literature and College Admissions. I am bilingual and as well as having 8 years worth of tutoring experience, I am also a songwriter for major label artists. I am a big believer that every student is unique and try to adapt my teaching methods to fit each student and their goals!
