Saskia Payne

I have completed my undergraduate degree in History and Spanish at the University of Chester and I am currently pursuing a second degree in English Studies at the Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED). I am proud to say that I have attained a C1 level in Spanish and possess a teaching Masters from the Universidad a Distancia de Madrid. This combination of academic achievements has equipped me with a solid understanding of the Humanities subjects, as well as the skills and knowledge required to deliver effective lessons that engage and inspire students of different levels and backgrounds.

In terms of experience, I have worked as a teacher in a private language academy for four years. During this time, I have had the opportunity to develop my teaching skills in a dynamic and challenging environment, which has enabled me to create lesson plans that cater to the specific needs of students. I have also completed work experience teaching History in a public Spanish school in Murcia, which has allowed me to understand the importance of a tailored approach to education that reflects the cultural context in which it takes place.

With my passion for teaching and the skills I have acquired through my academic qualifications and professional experience, I believe I can make a valuable contribution to your academic community. I am excited about the opportunity to work with a diverse group of students, collaborate with fellow educators and contribute to the development of your school’s academic program.
