ABOUT
ABOUT BAILEY LANGUAGE ACADEMY...
The Academy was founded by Rachel Bailey, a trilingual, experienced KS3/4, GCSE, IGCSE, IB and A Level tutor; who set up the academy to help parents and students feel less overwhelmed with learning a new language and the revision that comes with it.
The aim is to make life easier for you, whether as a parent of an unmotivated teenager with upcoming exams or as an adult student learning a new language.
A LITTLE BIT ABOUT RACHEL...
Rachel grew up speaking French and Spanish from a young age and has been fortunate to have lived and worked in both countries for a number of years. Rachel achieved a First Class Honours Degree in Modern Languages (French and Spanish) and began her career utilising her language skills working for well known companies including, British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Iberia and Vueling Airlines, Amazon and Crédit Agricole.
Rachel’s passion and fascination for different cultures meant she was fortunate to travel for work and utilise her language skills to integrate business partners across South America, Spain and France.
During this time of her career, Rachel continued to offer private classes throughout the course of 8 years, teaching from GCSE to degree level students. She is motivated, inspired and fully dedicated to Bailey Language Academy and her students who live all over the globe.
“Since the start of the covid pandemic, I have had a growing portfolio of International students in countries including Hong Kong, Singapore, India, Qatar, UAE, Spain as well as the United Kingdom. Through sharing cultural differences and experiences, you learn that a language is far more than just forming sentences. It is an enriching experience that provides a different world view. Let me help you experience this too.”
