Experience:
I am a C.E.L.T.A. (Cambridge University endorsed certificate) qualified English teacher (EFL), and hold an Honours Degree in Business Studies and Modern Languages. I specialise in Conversation Classes, English for Academic Purposes and Business English. I have over 10 years´ teaching experience, during which, I have successfully trained and prepared over 1000 students to speak the language of Shakespeare proficiently, pass Cambridge Exams and gain entrance to Masters Programmes.
All my classes are fun and dynamic; I place more emphasis than is usual on listening and speaking skills, and apply an alternative communicative method whilst teaching; based on the belief that ALL students are multi-dimensional and capable of adapting to multi-disciplinary learning methods. The study of material should not only develop the individual´s cognitive competences, but allow him/her to gain both intellectually and spiritually.
As a result of this, my classes and I have featured on the local, national and international press and media – gaining recognitions from The European Union and local government.

I am a British C.E.L.T.A. qualified English teacher. I hold an Honours Degree in Business and Modern Languages, and am also an award winning teacher and writer. I have successfully taught over one thousand students to speak the Queen´s English and to pass Cambridge and I.E.L.T.S Exams. Although I am a high energy results oriented teacher, with a student centred approach; I still manage to immerse my students into the current British culture, including the very traditional cup of tea!
I empower my students, so that they are able to interact in English proficiently and make an impact: live and work in the language with greater ease, pass official Cambridge Exams and gain entrance into higher education programmes – whilst optimising their confidence to understand and be understood.
I help my students in the following ways:
- To learn how to SPEAK English in order to maintain a conversation, present a Business case and/or pass a job interview; whilst learning how to apply phrasal verbs, the correct vocabulary, in addition to the appropriate tense.
- To apply the correct reading, writing, listening and speaking techniques required, in order to pass their exams with flying colours!
- To build their confidence whilst maintaining an English Conversation.
- Perfect their English pronunciation and fluency.
I HAVE HELPED MY STUDENTS TO BECOME BETTER SPEAKERS OF ENGLISH, TO FEEL CONFIDENT WHEN ENGAGING IN THE LANGUAGE, IN ANY GIVEN SCENARIO – PROFICIENTLY!

Moreover, her Spanish level is great which is also useful. I totally recommend her classes!”

“English Chat Cafe, is the best English school ever! I’ve been there learning and preparing my Cambridge exams with success! Fatima is a great teacher and excellent organizing different events to help students to learn this language! Dinner with show to support a charity, dinners to learn more this language and other cultures, tapas night, a chat with a nice cup of tea! (the best tea ever!). I felt very well prepared to be interviewed by my current boss in the UK. Thank you Fatima for your support and dedication to prepare the classes!”
