Lorraine was bought up in England before moving to Spain during 2005. Having qualified to teach English as a 2nd language in September 2006 (TEFL certification), she has been successfully working in the local village teaching children from 4 years to 21 years of age, engaging the students and making learning fun so that many return each year.

Lorraine has also been teaching teenagers and adult students online in Germany and Austria for the last 1.5 years and has built up a rapport with her students. Classes consist of everyday conversational classes as well as more structured general courses as well as business courses, both of which include an element of grammar.

Prior to moving to Spain, Lorraine and her family had students from the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Germany and Romania living in their house for 5 years and took this time to teach the students English during their stay whilst including them as part of the family.

Having lived in the local area for nearly 5 years, we have decided to offer similar services to students wanting to learn English or Spanish in Spain. You will have the opportunity to stay with an English family who will be able to show you the real Spain. However, you will also have a Spanish tutor on hand to provide you with daily conversational classes.

If you have specific needs, e.g. you want to learn more grammar or practise conversation for business, our Spanish tutor can arrange this is this is requested prior to arrival.
