About us
PAULA SAMPEDRO
I graduated in Business Studies with Foreign Languages at University of Oviedo, Spain.
Later, I took a PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education) in Modern Foreign Languages at Durham University, UK.
In 1998, I moved to the UK and in 2003, to the Netherlands. There, I worked in Education both as a classroom teacher or collaborating in different types of educational programs.
In 2007, I moved back to Spain where I’ve been teaching ESL to young learners. Also, I’m involved in creating and publishing teaching materials.
