About
Hello, my name is Menelaos and I'm from North London. I have recently graduated with honours from King's College London, studying European Studies with Spanish. I completed a year abroad in my 3rd year (2020-21), living in Madrid which was a transformative experience for me and one I look back on very fondly. I now wish to continue to maintain and improve my knowledge of the language through tutoring others regularly, sharing my experiences through the years on how I have developed my grasp and love for the Spanish language that I truly believe can assist others in their development process.
Following my year abroad, I have a C1 Erasmus certification in Spanish language, an EU-recognised qualification, as well as graduating with a distinction in Oral Spanish. I have further experience in tutoring neighbours and family friends of various ages and skill levels, and thus have refined a methodology which seeks to grow the student's overall confidence with the language through a variety of exercises and methods of learning, predominantly focusing on Grammar, Topical Vocabulary, Oral Expression, Reading Comprehension and Listening Comprehension.
Through my diverse methods which seek to sharpen these core skills, whilst also remaining open to how the student feels and adjusting accordingly, I feel I can offer a very productive teaching style by encouraging open and direct communication and thus being flexible to adjust the methodology as the priority is always the same: to make sure the student maximises their potential whilst enjoying seeing their skills develop. It is a necessity that the student wishes to improve their Spanish language skills, and with that mutual desire and motivation to teach and to learn, I sincerely believe we will significant results in the short and long-term.
