About Simon
I've been teaching Catalan, Spanish and English online for over 3 years now (since 2021). In that time I have taken on board over 25 students, of which 21 are learning either Catalan or Spanish with me. I am teaching to expats based in Malaga, Madrid, Alicante and Barcelona, as well as several students based in Ireland and the U.K. My current students range from the age of 10 all the way up to the age of 71. Apart from creating over 200 hours of material (and rising), I also provide the option of learning the language via my pre-recorded lessons. These are unique in that the student can go through a particular lesson, with me tutoring them at every stage, when they want, where they want, for as long as they want and as many times as they want. I also create my own educational videos on social media. These short videos are unique, a whole lot of fun and a great way of picking up colloquial, useful everyday Catalan or Spanish. As I am constantly creating my own material, I can fully adapt to the needs of my students. Whether it is help understanding the conditional tenses coming up on an exam, or you've been invited to a Catalan wedding and you'd like to know the customs and common phrases that surround the occasion. Or you'd love to be able to say a few phrases and ask a few questions to that taxi driver who picks you up at the airport, summer after summer. Provided I'm given enough time, I can create material relevant and useful for you. I will note that my Spanish lessons are generally focused on learning how to understand and communicate the language, as the Spanish themselves do. My course is not designed to help a student pass their exams, much more to actually learn the language in a practical way. However, I am always open and ready to assist in whatever way possible, be it for an exam or how to communicate effectively with the plumber or electrician who you have to call to come around to your home in Catalonia to fix whatever is ailing.

Having lived in Catalonia for over 20 years, I've decided to take the knowledge and experience gained from using the Catalan language on a daily basis since then, to the online classroom. I have created my very own Catalan course, for kids (from 8 and above) and adults, for both absolute beginner and intermediate levels. My course is vibrant, thorough and with it, I aim to have my students communicating as the proud Catalans themselves would. I give great emphasis, not only to what is done in class, but to what we can do between classes. Via audios and text messages, my students have the possibility of practicing their Catalan on a daily basis with me. My student’s goal of learning Catalan will also become my goal. Working together as a team, my ambition is to reach that goal, in the most engaging, memorable and pleasurable way possible.

Simon is a great teacher! He adapts the lessons to your needs, and they are always enjoyable and practical. He makes an effort to keep them dynamic and fun.
He’s also very flexible when it comes to scheduling.
His classes are very practice- and conversation-oriented, but he also offers more theoretical lessons if you need them.
I’ve noticed a lot of progress thanks to his classes—I feel like I’ve learned things I can actually use in my everyday conversations.
Highly recommended!

Simon es un gran profesor! Adapta las clases en función a tus necesidades y son muy amenas y prácticas, siempre trata de que sean dinámicas para que sea más divertido.
También pone mucha facilidad en cuanto a disponibilidad de horarios.
Muy orientado a la práctica y a la conversación, pero también hace clases más teóricas si lo necesitas.
He notado muchos avances gracias a sus clases; siento que he aprendido cosas que realmente puedo poner en práctica en mis conversaciones del día a día.
Recomendadisimo!Simon has been my Spanish tutor for a while now and I couldn’t be happier.
I have learned so much with him in a fun, relaxed environment online. It isn’t all grammar and rules with more of a concentration on getting to know the language naturally, throughout the course.
Couldn’t recommend enough and look forward to continuing to learn much more in the future.Just enough push and encouragement to make great progress but a great awareness and understanding of the students learning speed and learning preferences. In no time we had enough Spanish to hold basic conversations and we have moved on rapidly from there. 5 stars for Simon
At sixty yrs old learning a language for the first time I was apprehensive but determined. I have enjoyed learning Spainish so much, I really look forward to the lessons. My confidence has grown, the lessons are fun and easy going and I feel a sense of achievement. And it does get easier! Can't wait for my next Spainish holiday! Highly recommended if you would like a tutor who is caring, fun and very good. Gracias Simon!
