Hi everyone!
I am Paula Ruiz, proud founder of Goya Languages. I am originally from the stunning city of Valencia (Spain), and I have lived in London for more than 10 years.

I started my professional career in teaching over 20 years ago. I hold a Master's degree in teaching English as a foreign language with distinction from the University of Valencia, a Bachelor's Degree in Modern Languages from the University of Valencia (Spain), and a Certificate for Teaching Spanish as a Foreign Language from Cervantes Institute.
Â
My professional experience has mostly been in teaching English and Spanish to any age-range and nationality. I have also worked as a translator for several companies.
I have worked in Spain, Ireland and England, where I founded Goya Languages.
I can speak Spanish, English, Catalan, Portuguese and French.

I am passionate about the arts and I have combined her career in teaching with the study of music, dance and drama. I believe providing people with the necessary tools to build their confidence when speaking a foreign language is an essential key to their success.
