Fun, Friendly Spanish Lessons
in Watford
with Marianne
I offer engaging Spanish lessons in Watford for children, teenagers and adults. The classes are adapted to the needs and level of each learner and can be on a one to one basis or in small groups.
¡Hola! I’m Marianne
I’ve been teaching languages for 20 years
I’m a passionate Spanish tutor with over 20 years of teaching experience, and I truly believe language learning should be fun, natural, and confidence-boosting. Growing up in the UK with a Spanish mother and Scottish father made language and culture a joyful part of my life from the start. I spent 18 years teaching in bilingual schools in Madrid, working mainly with young learners. My lessons are creative, interactive, and designed to help students feel comfortable and excited about speaking Spanish.
Learning that is natural and fun
I focus on making learning enjoyable and stress-free by blending structured learning with playful activities that help language stick. My approach encourages:
- Speaking without fear of mistakes
- Building confidence through real conversation
- Learning through games, crafts and creative tasks
Whether you’re a child or an adult, my lessons are tailored to your goals and pace.
