¡Hola! I'm Charlotte Lavery and the proud owner of Lingotot Swansea. I am a Modern Foreign Languages Teacher specialising in Spanish and French and have over 25 years experience in the profession. I, like so many others, began my modern foreign language journey at secondary school. After three years of study I was completely hooked and at the tender age of 17 set off for Madrid as an Au Pair for six months where, from day one, I was immersed in the Spanish language. These six months cemented my love of all things Spanish. Both the language and culture excited and fascinated me and once home I studied for a Spanish and Portuguese degree and PGCE in MFL then worked for several years in comprehensive and select state secondary education in England until my family and I moved to Wales in 2008.

Fast forward several years and
