About Marcela
I qualified as a psychologist when I was growing up in Colombia. Later I came over to England to marry my (English) husband in 2003 and obtained my PTLLS qualification in 2011. I have been teaching Spanish on a one to one basis ever since then. When I was working as a psychologist in Colombia I counselled at a school set up for the children of the police force. I held sessions with the children and their parents to discuss behavioural and adolescent issues in an educational environment. Given my background, my culture and my PTLLS qualification, I have a particular knowledge and instinct about how people learn effectively and how I can best help them to achieve their goals in learning Spanish.

I grew up in Colombia and we pride ourselves on speaking the most easy-to-understand Spanish in the Spanish-speaking world! You will be able to apply the Spanish I teach in any Spanish-speaking country. All my lessons are tailored to the exact requirements of the student as every student is different, and they learn in different ways. I always ensure that the subject matter of my lessons is as relevant as possible to what the student wants (and needs) to learn and so they can put their newly acquired Spanish into immediate effect. My lessons are typically one hour long. I have a psychology degree, a PTLLS teaching qualification, and have amassed more than 1300 hours teaching students one to one since 2011. I particularly specialise in adults who have got "stuck" trying to learn Spanish by another route, and GCSE students. For online students, I scan and email pdfs of all the material a few days before the lesson so that the student is clearly prepared.

Marcela has been my tutor for a number of years and I have found her to be an excellent tutor. She is reliable and probably most importantly patient, as when I started with her I knew no Spanish at all! I would certainly recommend her.
I was looking to learn Spanish as a second language and decided to search for a tutor. I found Marcela as a in-person tutor and decided to book a free lesson with her to see how it goes. This was in October 2022 and since then I have been having regular lessons.
I would highly recommend Marcela as a Spanish tutor to anyone who is seriously considering learning Spanish. If like me you didn't know any Spanish or if you have basic understanding then Marcela can cater for your learning needs. Since being taught by Marcela, I have found her to be very flexible in terms of lessons and very reliable. If you need to make any ammendments or you need to cancel, this can be done with sufficient notice and Marcela will always try to accommodate.
Marcela is very patient in her way of teaching and does encourage both vocal and reading proficiency. Everything is explained very thoroughly so you understand, which is something you do not get if you do a self-help online course.
For me this was one of the best decisions I've made and Marcela has certainly helped.I’ve been leading with Marcela for a year and would really recommend. She is a great teacher .
She is always prepared and ready to help .I have started learning with marcela as a beginner. Marcela is an excellent teacher.
I would recommend her to everyone.View more recommendations
