About Me
italki teacher since Mar 27, 2020
InterestsTravelEnvironment & NatureHistoryArtFilms & TV Series
I moved to Madrid from England with my partner in 2018 to enjoy a new way of life and to experience Spanish culture and society. I am TEFL qualified and have over 5 years experience teaching adults in one-to-one classes and small groups, specialising in people who work in the arts and culture sectors. For around 20 years before that I was a Museum Curator in Sheffield. I am passionate about anything to do with archaeology and heritage, so love to visit museums and historic places. I'm also a keen football fan and enjoy Zumba classes, cycling in the parks and walking in the mountains that surround Madrid. My partner and I are keen players of board games and regularly play with our friends.

It was great to talk to Clare. She acted as a mock interviewee to help me practice interview skills. It was helpful to me as a key part of research skills training.

She told me about World war 2, because I have a test about that in school, and it helped me to understand well. She is really good at teaching english and history
