Hi, I'm Leonnie

Iām a qualified French and Spanish teacher with over 10 years of experience in language education, helping learners of different ages and abilities build their skills and confidence.
ā
My love of languages led me to study French and Spanish at university, before living and working in France as a British Council Language Assistant. I later trained as a secondary languages teacher and gained Qualified Teacher Status in the UK.
ā
Since then, Iāve taught French and Spanish in schools, online, and through private tuition ā from younger learners discovering a language for the first time to GCSE students and adults learning for travel, conversation, or simply for enjoyment.
ā
I founded Languages Without Borders because I believe learning a language is about much more than vocabulary and grammar. Itās about building confidence, discovering other cultures and connecting with people.
ā
My lessons are friendly, supportive and personalised to each learner. I adapt the content, pace and approach around individual goals, interests and learning preferences, whether thatās preparing for GCSE exams, learning Spanish for a holiday or simply becoming more confident speaking another language.
ā
When Iām not teaching, I love cooking, practising yoga, spending time with my family and, of course, travelling whenever I get the chance!
