About me
I am a creative, a wife & mother with a passion for languages and learning about too many things! I love nature, swimming, keeping healthy, singing and connecting with people.
I’m a qualified teacher of 16 years specializing in modern foreign languages specifically French & Spanish. I’ve taught in England, France and now in Spain as a TEFL tutor (teaching English as a foreign language).
Favourite quotes:
If you try, you might fail but if you never try you’re guaranteed to fail
La vida es un regalo. - Life is a gift.
Petit à petit, l’oiseau fait son nid. - Little by little, the bird builds its nest.
Most difficult sound I’ve overcome: rrrrrrr - rolling the double r in Spanish
I have a background in acting as an extra in films and as a main character on stage, having written many articles, poetry and plays leading to co-founding a theatre company where I co-wrote the play A Date With Destiny as well as directing it. It was performed in a West End theatre in London and some of the actors now appear on our screens.
