I’m Immy and I am passionate about helping you to achieve your Spanish-language goals. I hold a first-class Spanish degree with experience teaching students with a wide range of language ability. Learning a new language can feel daunting at any age, and it is important to me that our lessons are a place for you to grow in both confidence and Spanish proficiency. I take a tailored approach to teaching to ensure that your lessons are always engaging, productive and relevant to your objectives. We will identify areas that you find particularly challenging and then I will introduce clearly explained grammar tutorials, as well as plenty of creative listening, reading, writing and speaking activities to help you reach your learning targets. When not tutoring, you can find me playing guitar, practising photography, and exploring walking trails in the great outdoors. I'm also starting my own learning journey in German (once a student, always a student!). I look forward to helping you succeed in your language learning journey!

I am currently on a gap year following my A Levels, and am studying Physics at university next school year. I am currently looking to take on students for lessons over the summer and for the next academic year. At A Level I achieved 3 A*s in Physics, Mathematics, and History, and I also achieved a grade 9 in Physics at GCSE level. My sessions are tailored towards GCSE Physics students, and are aimed at improving exam performance while also improving the student's understanding of the subject beyond simply memorising equations. I understand that every student's goals are different, and my lessons reflect this - if one method of teaching is not proving effective for a student I am able to adapt my lessons to be structured in a way that resonates with them specifically. My lessons are applicable to every GCSE exam board, but I have the most experience with the AQA specification. At A Level, I attained 3 A*s in Physics, Mathematics, and History. At GCSE I achieved a grade 9 in Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, and English Language. I achieved a grade 8 in Chemistry, Biology, English Literature, and History, and a grade 6 in Spanish. Additionally, I accomplished the highest total score in my sixth form for A Level Physics.

I specialise in medieval/early modern literature and history. Have written a novel on Mary Tudor, Queen of France. Grade 6 piano player. Interested in editing - incl. SPaG, issues of clarity, and developmental. Pre-publication book reviewer. Love travelling to new places. Year 2 English/History student at the University of York. Achieved A*A*AA in A-Level English Literature, History, Religious Studies, and EPQ. Won the Mary Stuart Award for English Literature, the Historical Association’s Historical Fiction Writing Competion, and highly commended in the NCH History Essay Competition 2021.
