Norfolk
Spanish Classes: Testimonials
 |
|
I have
taught Spanish in Norfolk and Suffolk to so many great people
over the years from all ages and backgrounds. Each student
decides to learn Spanish for their own individual reasons.
However, they all share an important thing - a real passion
for Spain and the Spanish language. This makes my job so
rewarding.
If you
are looking for languages classes or a Spanish
teacher in Norfolk then I hope that the testimonials
below will help you to decide if I may be the right teacher
for you!

Spanish
Language Lessons in Norfolk - Feedback From Some Of My Students
 |
|
I
lived in Spain for a short while but my Spanish was shaky
at the best. Heather helped me pull together what I already
knew and, in relaxed one-to-one sessions, managed to introduce
me to the dreaded complexities of grammar and tenses. I
found that after a few weeks she had given me essential
confidence in this near-universal language. She has got
a lot to live up to. Heather is the best and most approachable
language teacher I have met.

I
started learning Spanish with Heather when I was in sixth
form. I was really apprehensive about having a private tutor
because I didn't know what Heather's expectations would
be. When I started my extent of Spanish probably didn't
extend any further than 'Hola' and 'Que tal'. I studied
Spanish with Heather for about a year and in the space of
about four months she helped me obtain a GCSE in Spanish
on top of my other A Levels. She used to set me various
bits of work to do during the week such as grammar exercises,
films to watch or radio clips to improve my listening skills.
I
am now a French and Spanish student at Lancaster University,
a top 10 uni and next year I am hoping to do a Masters in
Interpreting and Translation. I will always keep in contact
with Heather because she is a wholly lovely and supportive
person. Even writing this brings a tear to my eye because
I feel so lucky to have had this experience. I would definitely
not be in the position I am now without her help throughout!

I
have been learning Spanish with Heather at Norfolk Spanish
since 2020. I have progressed from a total novice to upper
intermediate / advanced level with her help and support.
I
have 1:1 lessons weekly and enjoy the flexibility this
gives me to go over areas of weakness and also for conversations
about all sorts of things that are of interest. Heather
is a great teacher, very supportive and encouraging and
she makes the lessons interesting and current if there
are news items of interest for us to discuss.
For
me, it helps that Spanish isn't her first language because
she totally understands the frustrations of learning new
grammar rules! I enjoy the grammar side of languages so
her tips for remembering things resonate with me. If you're
thinking of learning Spanish or need some assistance to
improve what you already know, then I would recommend
calling Heather.

I
really enjoyed learning Spanish with Heather. Heather
brings a lovely energy to the lesson, her joy and passion
for the language are communicative.
Within
a few months, I felt I could have a go at saying a few
things that felt like a conversation. For me, the lessons
were a ray of sunshine every Tuesday.
They
were fun and engaging and a great way to meet other people.

Having
learnt some basic Spanish in a 1 to 1 class in Guatemala
over twenty years ago and with children now doing GCSE
Spanish, I was really keen to see what I could remember
and get a bit of confidence in speaking the language again.
Im
fortunate enough to live not too far from Heather and
Norfolk Spanish - though a few in the group travel many
miles each week to come. Weekly lessons have been great
fun and really beneficial - everyone has strengths in
different areas so we all help each other out and there
is never any fear of getting things wrong.
I
genuinely look forward to my Thursday evenings and we
have even booked a holiday to Spain this year to (hopefully)
show off a bit of new found confidence in speaking Spanish
again.

Since
joining Heather's Tuesday morning Spanish conversation
class, I have gained so much more confidence in speaking
and conversing in the language about many and varied subjects.
I
genuinely look forward to learning and practising with
Heather and my lovely classmates every week!
Heather
is a brilliant teacher, with great knowledge of and passion
for the Spanish language and culture. It's always fun
to learn and practise new skills in such a relaxed environment.
I cannot recommend Heather's classes highly enough.

My
husband and I have a holiday home near Denia on the Costa
Blanca and love our time there enjoying the climate, the
food, the wine, the culture and the lifestyle. We spend
around 4 months a year there at different times.
I
find having a good working knowledge of the language a
great asset and very much enhances the overall Spanish
experience.
My
lessons with Heather are a highlight of my week when I
am in the UK. They are always really enjoyable and she
has a great ability to tailor lessons around my interests
and I always come away feeling that I have learned more.
