Spanish and English (Foreign Language) Lessons in Kirkliston

I am a very experienced teacher of both Spanish and French and also English to speakers of other languages (ESOL) and have taught for the last 30 years at a private school in Edinburgh. I am now retired and so am very flexible in terms of my availability. I have also previously taught abroad and have a lot of experience of private tutoring. I am used to preparing students for public exams in a wide range of curricula and have had good results. My wife is a French native speaker and also a teacher.
