Bethany

Bethany grew up in Manchester and attended Altrincham Grammar School for Girls, achieving A*s in English and Theatre Studies at A-level. She graduated with a First in Education with English and Drama from the University of Cambridge, later achieving the Instituto Cervantes DELE C1 in Spanish, and went on to a career in management consulting.

Bethany began tutoring at 18, helping students through the 11+ and GCSE Spanish, English and Music, with As and A*s achieved. Her lessons combined targeted exam practice with more exploratory sessions designed to spark students’ interest. After university she spent a year in Madrid, building a private practice teaching English to business professionals.

Bethany gets to know each student and how they work, then uses her study of education theory to find ways to engage them. Success looks different for everyone, whether it is re-engaging with learning or achieving a particular grade, and she adapts accordingly. In every case, she believes students should have fun and feel inspired.
