Travellers walking down a narrow terracotta-walled lane in a Mediterranean hill town at golden hour

English · Spanish · Turkish

Don't just visit. Belong.

I teach English, Spanish and Turkish to people who are going somewhere. One-to-one or in small groups, online or across a table. Language for the road, not for the exam.

Three languages. Three very different doors.

How it works

  1. 01

    A free 20-minute chat

    We talk. No test, no camera pressure. I want to hear you speak and know where you're going.

  2. 02

    We set your goal and level

    Not "improve my Spanish". Something real: order dinner in Seville in June without switching to English.

  3. 03

    Weekly lessons, real conversations

    Every lesson rehearses a situation you'll actually be in. Grammar arrives when it's needed, not before.

From the road

The Journal

Short stories from the places that taught me — and the exact words that opened the door in each one.

    And the photographs: Togo, Colombia, Morocco, Italy, Spain, and everywhere in between.

    On your own, or with five others

    Private 1-to-1

    Every minute is yours. We move at your pace, chase your mistakes, and build the lesson around the exact trip you're taking.

    £38 / 55 minutes

    Best for: a fixed departure date and limited weeks.

    Small group — max 6

    You practise with people who are as nervous as you are. More listening, more laughing, and the accountability of a group that notices when you skip.

    £16 / 90 minutes

    Best for: building confidence speaking in front of people.

    I moved to Colombia to study and stayed six years. Spanish is the only reason those years were a life and not a visit.
