Rachel

Rachel grew up speaking French and Spanish from a young age and has been fortunate to have lived and worked in both countries for a number of years. Rachel achieved a First Class Honours Degree in Modern Languages (French and Spanish) and began her career utilising her language skills working for well known companies including, British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Iberia and Vueling Airlines, Amazon and Crédit Agricole.

Rachel's passion and fascination for different cultures meant she was fortunate to travel for work and utilise her language skills to integrate business partners across South America, Spain and France.

During this time of her career, Rachel continued to offer private classes throughout the course of 8 years, teaching from GCSE to degree level students. She is motivated, inspired and fully dedicated to teaching modern languages and her students who live all over the globe.

Tutoring Experience
