We are a small team of experienced teachers who love languages and want to spread the joy of learning a language to as many people as possible!
Jennifer Moses
I love languages, I love teaching and I love that I can combine both and help other people. I speak English as my native language as well as German, French, Russian and Spanish.
I am a fully qualified teacher with 20 years’ experience of teaching in UK state and independent schools both at primary and secondary level. My teaching experience includes GCSE and A-level exam preparation in all language skills and also the marking of GCSE speaking exams.
I enjoy travelling, using my languages in real settings; I have lived in both Germany and Russia as well as spending a lot of time with family in France and holidaying in Spain.
I bring the culture of the countries where these languages are spoken into
my teaching and aim to inspire my learners with a life-long love of languages.
I set up Languages for All in 2021 to bring language learning opportunities to more people and work with adults, as well as children.
Phil Ince
I have worked as a teacher of French and German since graduating with a PGCE in 2000. I have worked in five secondary schools including a spell teaching in a German school. I am also a fluent speaker of French to near-native standard.
For the majority of my career I have been head of modern languages and I have always enjoyed witnessing students of all abilities enjoying language learning and achieving their potential.
I am passionate about language learning and strongly believe that by doing so, we are equipped with skills which we can use far beyond the classroom.
Sophie Clarke
I have a degree in French as well as GCSEs in German and Spanish. I completed a degree in French and Cultural Studies at Warwick University, as part of which I lived in Poitiers, France for a year. Later, I trained as a teacher completing a Primary PGCE at the Institute of Education, specialising in teaching French. I taught in Paris for a month as part of this training and love being able to use my language skills in the classroom and beyond.
Kim Cleland
My name is Kim and I’m a qualified English teacher at secondary level. I have been teaching for over twenty years and offer GCSE English Language, GCSE English Literature, A Level English Language and A Level English Literature. I specialise in SEND, notably teaching people with Autism, Dyslexia, EAL and ADHD. I am available for face-to-face tutoring at my home in Nottingham, your home in Nottingham, schools, and online wherever you live. My main ambition is to create bespoke lessons that help you reach your specific goals and address your learning styles at your level and pace, challenging and supporting as needed to suit you, whether you are looking to improve your use of transactional English, reach the top grades or get the pass you need so you can move onto the next stage of your life.
I have taught in a large comprehensive school in London, a secure unit in Edinburgh, an independent school in Derbyshire and an LOtC provision in Leicestershire for students with Autism. I have also tutored Key Stages 2-5.
I have lived in and travelled to many places and I love fashion, reading and music, especially metal and music with great lyrics. I currently live in Nottingham with my son and a plethora of cats. I have my own style and love to celebrate individuality. I drink lots of tea, wear lots of earrings and eye liner, and am passionate about our rich linguistic heritage.
María José Parra Parra
Hola amigos! My name is María Parra, I’m a Spanish native with a passion for languages and would love the opportunity to assist you on your next linguistic adventure!
Originally from Andalucía, my own language learning journey commenced with French and English studies at school but began in earnest when I relocated to Germany as part of a university exchange programme during my undergraduate degree. Having fallen in love with the culture, I returned to Germany after graduating and pursued the language intensively, ultimately achieving a C1 standard. Keen to continue my education, I later embarked on a two-year Erasmus Mundus master’s degree programme and studied at various European universities including in Belgium and Portugal, always picking up new language skills along the way.
As a means to support my studies I have provided language tutoring in various counties and settings. I offer a dynamic and interactive teaching method that emphasizes conversation and cultural immersion. My lessons are designed to be engaging and stimulating, encouraging students to actively participate and practice their speaking skills in real-life scenarios. By incorporating cultural elements into my lessons, I aim to provide a richer and more comprehensive learning experience. Also, having learned multiple languages myself, I know firsthand how challenging and rewarding the process can be. Let´s work together in this exciting journey!
Marys Cuases
Hola! My name is Marys and I am from Ecuador. I grew up in Spain so I am also familiar with Castilian Spanish, their culture and accent.
I have a passion for travelling and trying foods from around the world. Reading about the human mind and emotions is also fascinating! I have a special interest in the Deaf World, hence, I know British Sign Language and I am currently learning Mexican Sign Language.
I believe learning a language is not just about speaking it. It opens a door to a whole new way of thinking, a culture and new friends. Knowing three languages has personally helped me to get to know myself better, it has opened my mind and enriched my life.
I started teaching languages during the pandemic, it was the best time to learn something new and being a native Spanish speaker, I felt I had something to offer in the field. Of course knowing a language does not entitle you to teach it, that is why I am working towards a ELE course that enables me to teach Spanish as a foreign language.
Now, with 4 years of teaching experience I have my own identity as a tutor. My approach is a focus in communication. I like to help my students by showing them how they can apply what they learn onto everyday scenarios. This builds up their confidence and enables them to absorb the language in the most natural way possible.
I would describe myself as an enthusiastic and encouraging tutor, one of my main goals is that, after a lesson with me, you can feel refreshed and motivated to continue learning. Hope you can book your first lesson with me soon!
