“I wanted to learn some Spanish in preparation for tracking to Costa Rica. Sam’s teaching and follow up helped with greetings, directions, food allergies.
I enjoyed her teaching style and very practical prompts and reminders. Although it was Zoom it felt relaxed and designed for me.

“Going into the exam our child felt relaxed and calm thanks to Samantha’s help and enjoyed chatting with the examiner.

In the short time that we have been working with Samantha she has helped our child increase in confidence for an upcoming IGCSE Spanish oral exam.

By explaining the structure of the exam, and what exactly is required to gain top marks, Samantha broke it down into manageable chunks that our child could easily understand.

Parent - iGCSE Cambridge Spanish

Sam is a fantastic teacher. I’ve studied a couple of languages and attended a number of courses but I’ve never played games or had so much fun. Sam makes the lessons engaging and the games make the words stick and I feel much more confident - Thank you Sam”

(Beccles 8 week Beginner Course)

“My’s son’s predicted GCSE grade dropped, and he had lost interest and motivation in Spanish, so we decided to invest in a tutor.
We had an online meeting with Sam and immediately took to her. She has a very warm, bubbly but very professional approach to the lessons.
My son particularly enjoys the role play practice and has gained a lot of confidence from these.
After only 6 weekly lessons our sons predicted GCSE grade has already improved and we feel he is back on track to do well in his GCSE’s. So, fingers crossed.
Thanks Sam this is down to you.”

Sarah - Parent (Y11 GCSE Spanish)

“I just wanted to let you know the positive impact you are having. H’s French is improving and she is growing in confidence which is quite a big thing for her.”

J - Parent (Online GCSE French group)

“My daughter has been working in Sam’s Spanish group lesson for three months. After her first lesson she came to me with a huge smile on her face declaring how amazing the lesson was and how much she had learnt not only through Sam’s incredible teaching but also through the other highly motivated students. Since then she has significantly improved her grade from a 4 to a potential 7 or 8. I would totally recommend Sam’s online lessons to any parent wanting their child to reach their potential in Spanish.”
