3Within 24 hours: an estimated grade, three priorities and a plan
No cost, no obligation.
Why students lose marks in GCSE Spanish
The new GCSE splits the grade evenly across four skills. Most students practise reading and writing at school, but rarely get enough speaking practice with feedback.
25%
The speaking exam
Role-play, reading aloud and a photo card conversation. We rehearse all three, every week.
2
Translation directions
Spanish to English in reading, English to Spanish in writing. Both reward precise grammar.

The tier question
Foundation or Higher? We work towards the tier that gives your child the best realistic grade.

Your tutor
Hola, I'm Aimar.
I was born and raised in Spain, so Spanish is my first language. I've studied the new AQA (8692) and Edexcel (1SP0) GCSE specifications, sat every paper myself, and teach to the official mark schemes.
I explain grammar in plain English, using the same terms your child hears at school, and I spend a lot of each lesson on what most students practise least: speaking.
How lessons are run
Lesson links are sent to parents, and all messages go through parents.
Online: cameras on, in a shared space at home.
In-person: a parent or adult is at home for the whole lesson.
24 hours' notice to reschedule; later cancellations are charged.
Parents are welcome to sit in on any lesson, at any time.
Questions parents ask
Do you teach AQA or Edexcel?
Both. In the free assessment I'll ask which board your child's school uses and tailor every lesson to it.
My child might be moved to Foundation. Can you help?
Yes. Students on the borderline between tiers are a big part of what I do. We work on the skills that decide the tier and aim for the best realistic grade.
Is online as good as in-person?
For languages, it works very well: we share the exam materials on screen, and speaking practice is just as effective by video.
Can I choose when to have lessons?
Yes. The monthly programmes give a fixed weekly slot, and the flexible hours let you book lessons whenever they suit you.
When is the best time to start?
Autumn of Year 11 gives time for steady weekly progress before the summer exams. Year 10 is even better. Shorter packs exist for spring.
Can you guarantee a grade?
No honest tutor can. What I do guarantee is a clear starting point, regular mocks, and reports so you can see progress.

Five quick questions, then I'll contact you to arrange a time. The written report arrives within 24 hours of the session.
