About Michelle

A friend once called me “a great communicator” — and it’s true. I thrive on connecting with others and sharing experiences.

From the boardroom to the classroom

Before I became an English teacher, I spent more than twenty years working in corporate sales, development and training. I’ve delivered presentations to packed conference rooms, negotiated contracts, run training programmes and managed teams. That experience means I understand the real-world pressures my business English students face — because I’ve lived them myself.

For the past ten years I’ve supported learners through one-to-one and small group sessions. Whether you’re preparing for IELTS exams, getting ready for a university interview, relocating to England, or simply wanting to improve your everyday conversation skills — I tailor every session to your needs and help you build the confidence to use English naturally.

Why Spain matters

I’ve lived in Spain for more than two decades. That means I know first-hand what it feels like to navigate everyday life in a second language — the frustration when you can’t find the right word, the anxiety of a phone call you’re not sure you can handle, and the breakthrough moment when a conversation just flows.

That experience shapes everything I teach. I’m not just explaining grammar rules from a textbook. I understand the emotional side of learning a language, and I build my lessons around building genuine confidence — not just knowledge.
