I have been teaching in secondary education for over 10 years and have a deep understanding of GCSE and A-Level exam boards for Modern Languages, as well as being able to build a rapport with young people.
I love travelling, I enjoy honing my Spanish skills in Mexico, Central America, and South America. I am always up for sharing travel stories! I am also passionate about football, Chelsea are my team (don't mention last season!), and music, I love to discover new artists from around the world.
Having completed my PGCE at the University of Oxford, I worked as Head of Department at a secondary school. I worked with A-level and GCSE students on a daily basis and understand the requirements to achieve top grades in these exams. I have a thorough knowledge of Modern Languages and have a degree in French and Hispanic Studies from the University of Nottingham.
I have taught extensively online using Microsoft Teams, Zoom and on tutoring websites. I have good IT skills and am confident in my ability to impart knowledge in an online classroom.
Specialising in speaking and grammar, I am a dynamic and enthusiastic teacher and aim to deliver tutor sessions that allow for rapid academic progression. All sessions will have clear and challenging goals in order that students will reach their maximum potential.
"Nigel has been helping me with my GCSE Spanish for the last couple months. He has been very friendly and allowed me to build confidence in my language skills, making me feel more prepared for the upcoming exams. The lessons are well planned and structured and are focused on the areas where I need support. I would really recommend Nigel as a Spanish tutor."
"I would have no hesitation in recommending Nigel for Spanish lessons. He is very well organised, reliable, experienced and knowledgeable. He manages to make the lessons for my son fun, engaging and challenging. He has a very personable teaching style and with lots of resources to fit the KS3 and GCSE syllabus requirements. An excellent tutor."

We are very happy with our son’s progress and look forward to tracking his growth with Nigel. We would highly recommend him."
"Nigel is a very responsible and passionate teacher. He always gives feedback after the lessons and uses a wide range of materials to tailormake his lessons. He understands the strengths and weaknesses of my son and he patiently guides my son to achieve a better level. We are glad that we have Nigel here to support him."
