I enjoy meeting people and the privilege of showing my clients the sights of Barcelona. I divide my time between guiding and the Teaching of English as A Foreign Language to Spaniards of all ages and ranges of ability at the Escuela Oficial de Idiomes in Barcelona Both professions involve providing information and knowledge in an engaging manner and my experience as a teacher has proved invaluable in my work as a tour guide. As a guide and a teacher I believe it is essential to be good at communicating with and retaining the attention of my listeners whatever their age, cultural background and nationality.
Born and brought up in London but now “adopted” by Barcelona, a city I have come to know and love over the last twenty years.
