About Shandon

Hey! My name’s Shandon and I’d love to be your child’s Spanish tutor as Spanish has been my passion since I started studying it 15 years ago.

I previously started my own Spanish tutoring business, for which I taught over 1,000 online lessons, created a Spanish learning podcast that has 180,000 downloads and also grew audiences on TikTok (20,000 followers), Instagram (4.7K followers) and YouTube (2.1K subscribers) through providing educational Spanish content.

Before that, I graduated from Durham University with a 2:1 degree in Economics and Spanish, meaning I’ve studied Spanish to a high level.

As part of my degree, I spent a year abroad living and working in Spain, Colombia and Perú. I’ve also spent time travelling in México and Bolivia - the knowledge and experience I’ve gained from living in Spanish-speaking environments is something I’d love to pass onto your child.

And City of London School, one of the best schools in the country, is where I went to secondary school, achieving A* grades in IGCSE and A Level Spanish.

All of this experience and success combined means I’m the perfect tutor to help your child achieve the top grades in their Spanish exams and overcome any struggles they might have with the language.

Outside of tutoring, I:

- Enjoy learning languages: I want to become fluent in at least two more languages in my life

- Play football every week

- Love travelling: I’ve visited 20 different countries, with México being my favourite

About the lesson

Success with Spanish is about taking what you’ve learned and applying it to speaking and writing practice, while also making learning as relatable as possible to each student.

For each topic, we’ll first speak in English about the topic. I’ll ask your child questions to see how their lives relate to the topic: for example, if we’re learning about Food and Drink, I’ll learn what your child’s favourite foods are and ask them other food-related questions.

Then, we’ll cover the vocabulary to speak about these things in Spanish before going into a question and answer format, where I’ll ask questions about the topic to get your child using the vocabulary we’ve learned and what they already know to respond to questions, either in spoken or written form.

If particular grammar points or gaps in your child’s knowledge come up, we’ll then go back to speaking English to go through these points in detail, with lots of examples to ensure your child understands how to improve.

In this way, we’ll cover everything your child needs to succeed in their Spanish exams in a way that ensures they’ll retain more of what we’ve learned and that the learning will be enjoyable.

Plus, your child will practise all four skills (speaking, listening, reading and writing) that make up their Spanish exams, including regular past paper practice.

Lessons are 50 minutes long, slightly shorter than other tutors to ensure focus and concentration for the duration of each lesson.

Shandon tutored both my children in Maths when they were preparing for their GCSE and A-level exams.

He was not only very patient, approachable and thorough but his knowledge and professionalism were second to none, as well.
Shandon really listened to my children: he managed to undertstand their learning styles, and adjusted his teaching techniques so that their learning was as efficient as possible.

My children had been awarded grades 7 and 9 in Maths in their GCSE and A-level exams, and my daughter is now studying Maths at university.

I couldn’t recommend Shandon highly enough to anyone who either just needs help with their exam preparations, gain confidence in their understanding of the subject, or those who would like to deepen their knowledge in Maths.

Shandon has an extensive background in Maths coupled with a rare ability to take complicated topics and make them accessible, engaging and simple.

Because of this I think Shandon is an exceptional tutor capable of fast tracking any student no matter where they are in their academic journey. Shandon avoids a on size fits all approach and is really great at tailoring his teaching approach depending on what his student needs.

Above all, Shandon is an individual with really high integrity - so I’d not only recommend him but also trust him to tutor any of my friends or family!
