Olivia Matthews

I strive to be an encouraging and approachable teacher who understands students’ individual learning styles and needs. I want my students to leave our lessons feeling confident in themselves and their language-learning abilities. I also enjoy finding creative and playful ways to assist students with pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary.

Olivia is a languages graduate with a background in art and design. She has spent the last two years working as an English Language Assistant in a school in the Basque Country, Spain, where she prepared and led speaking activities in order to improve students’ confidence, intonation, and fluency in spoken English. Olivia also works as a translator (Spanish to English) and enjoys watching Spanish-speaking TV in her spare time to refine her language skills.
