Adrian

Hello there!

Thanks for dropping in. I’m Adrian, and I grew up among the green gently rolling hills near Cambridge, surrounded by little villages with sheep and cows… my home town is actually called Saffron Walden. I’m number 4 out of 5 brothers – but sadly have no sisters. My Mum and Dad are my heroes, and probably the nicest people you could ever hope to meet. I studied sciences at university, so it’s strange I am now an English teacher – I started teaching to be able to travel – working along the way.

After coming to Málaga in 1990, I fell in love with the Malagueño way of life and finally met a beautiful Spanish lady from Fuente Olletas and settled down. We now have 2 fabulous (usually) children and spend most of our time doing family things, which is great!

I used to do every sport imagineable, but the classic dodgey knee syndrome means that I now stick to the gym, Tai Chi, making cakes and lemon curd, and laping up DVDs and books at every chance I get (which isn’t as often as one would like!).

A few favourites?… colour: blue…. music: pop … food: porras… day:Thursday… football team: Málaga… season: Spring… festivity:Christmas

Well, thanks again for popping in, and hope to see you soon!

Katy

My name is Katy and I am from a twee English village 20 miles north of London.  Before I was 5 I lived in Iraq & Shetland (polar opposites weather wise!) and since then my itchy feet have clocked up a fair number of cities. Best city I’ve visited? Sydney.

I love food – cooking and going out to dinner. Oh and wine….one of many reasons I ended up in Malaga! And one thing no home should be without…..Marmite.

Mary

Hello! I grew up in the countryside in the Irish midlands, near to a town called Mullingar. I really love travelling and have moved around quite a lot in the last few years, studying and teaching in different places.  I’ve come to Málaga after spending a year teaching English in Cáceres. I’m delighted to be part of the team here and I hope to see you soon in class.

Sam

Hey guys! My name is Ehsan, but like the rest of the Malagueños and my family, you can call me Sam. I’m originally from Iran, but when I was around 2, me and my family moved to the UK and started a life there. My Dad is English , from a green and beautiful village in Wales and my mother is from Tehran, and has spent nealy all of her life in Wales too. That´s how they met.

I had a wild and cheerful childhood. I grew up on a farm, surrounded by different animals from cows to horses . When I was 14, we moved to Andalucía.

I finished my studies here in Málaga, but I felt that it was the moment for a change in my life, so I packed my stuff and moved to Zaragoza, where I lived and worked as an English teacher for 9 years! I made many dear friends and had a wonderful experience, which made me a better person and professional.

I have begun a new adventure here at the New English Centre Academy. I’m very excited about it as this place enables me to find new and creative ways to teach English.

See you soon in class I hope!

Lewis

Hello! My name is Lewis and I’m from Merseyside (better known as the city of Liverpool),England. Interesting fact: when I was 12 , My family and I emigrated to Australia  but sadly we had to return.

I moved to the city of Leeds when I was 19. I ended up living in Leeds for almost six years and also studied my Degree in Popular music at Leeds College of music. (Instrument: Guitar and Electric Guitar)

During my time in Leeds,  I taught Guitar lessons and developed a joy for languages, I regularly taught English to my international peers, and started my journey of learning Spanish.

Fast forward to 2020 and I have moved to the amazing city of Málaga! I love living here and taking advantage of the sun almost everyday! I spend my free time doing calisthenics outdoors and playing the guitar. I have been teaching English at Crown English since January 2021 and I am thoroughly enjoying it! See you soon!

Melissa

Hello! Nice to meet you! I am Melissa.

I´m from Montana in the USA but I´ve lived in Spain since 2004. After living by the Cantabrian Sea for about seventeen and a half years in Asturias, I decided to make the beautiful city of Málaga my new home in April, 2021. I think Spain is such a diverse and culturally-rich country so I am excited to learn more about the South.

I consider myself a life-long learner and a bit of a language nerd. I try to pick up a few new phrases a day in Italian, Chinese or Portuguese on Duolingo. I studied linguistics at university and can really bore my friends with fun facts about language.

As for my hobbies, I like yoga, visiting historical places, the wine culture in Spain, and watching personal development videos on You Tube. 

I am delighted to be a part of the team at Crown English and I look forward to seeing you in class!
