Give your children the gift of language learning

Children are divided into three different groups depending on age, existing knowledge of Spanish and literacy skills.

Sessions are delivered by a qualified Primary teacher from Spain who has full GTCS registration and nearly a decade of experience teaching languages internationally - Spain, Hong Kong and UK.

Meet your teachers
Meet Eugenia
Hola! I'm Eugenia, Get Talking Spanish's founder and Spanish teacher.
​
I am a qualified Primary Teacher with full GTCS registration and over a decade of experience teaching languages to both children and adults. I also hold a full PVG.
​
Before deciding to start my own venture at Get Talking Spanish, I worked as an Early Years Teacher in one of the best nurseries in Edinburgh for three and a half years. I have also taught children in Hong Kong and Spain as well as online.
​
I believe one of the most important subjects we should encourage our children to learn are languages, and as a mum of a bilingual child myself, I love to help other kids learn too.
​
Being able to speak more than one language has been, without a doubt, what has opened the most doors for me both personally and professionally throughout my life, and I wouldn't change it for anything.
​
I currently look after our Portobello classes for children, teach Spanish in nurseries, and also offer 1:1 Spanish lessons for children and adults in Edinburgh northeast and online.
