About Thomas

I come from a languages background after doing a degree in Spanish and Portuguese and I then worked as a Welsh translator for 3 years. This has enabled me to develop an excellent understanding of Welsh and how the language works. I have been working as a Welsh tutor for the last three years and am really enjoying the work! I work for local education providers as well as provide private lessons to learners. I'm very passionate about the Welsh language and love to see students progressing and starting to use their language after all the work that they have put in.

English

My teaching style is flexible depending on how the student wants to learn. I can teach conventional lessons such as the courses that are provided by the National Centre for Learning Welsh from Entry to Proficiency. I can also work on more specific things such as grammar points that a student wants to cover as well as more conversation, reading and writing based skills.

  • Do you speak this language fluently because of your origins or because a teacher inspired you to learn?

    I speak Welsh because of my origins. I went to a Welsh school and grew up speaking the language.
  • Can you name a living, historical or fictional character that you think is the emblematic representative of the language's culture?

    Iolo Morgannwg - an interesting character who was an innovator and helped create the modern day Eisteddfod.
  • Is there a typical word, phrase, tradition or behavior in the language that you particularly like?

    Y Fari Lwyd - it's from my area and is a special thing to do over the Winter that brings everyone together.
  • Why does speaking this language matter to you?

    It's an important part of Welshness and helps us to know where we come from and where we are going.
  • What is the main difficulty in learning this language and what can help the process of learning?

    The mutations - the best thing to do is relax and not be afraid of making mistakes. This is the best way of starting to get your head around the mutations.
  • Provide a valuable anecdote related to your language learning or your days at school.

    We are always learning. When I was in Patagonia, I would host a weekly conversation group in the house I was living in. There were a mix of people who would come to speak Welsh and I would always learn something new about the Welsh language from the individuals that came to practice.
  • How has travel or a specific trip helped you to increase your skill and knowledge of the language?

    Teaching Welsh in Patagonia. This experience made me appreciate my language and it was amazing to see the effort that local people put in to keep the language alive.
  • What makes you a Superprof in language?

    I am an experienced tutor who has a proven track record of facilitating individual's journey to learn and be more confident at speaking and using their Welsh. I guide the individuals but I never force them to do something they don't want to do but I am always trying to get the best outcome for their learning journey.
