Vicki Anderson | Vicki has been a tutor on CELTA and DELTA courses since 1988 - with at least 75 CELTA courses so far! - as well as still teaching regular English courses. She has also been involved in several Oposiciones courses for Secondary School English teachers, going back at least ten years.

She has many years experience of teaching adolescents (and a soft spot for them) and a daughter who is now studying ESO, both of which have helped her to understand the issues when planning and giving lessons to secondary students.

Vicki's other interest over the years has been testing and exams, and she has taught preparation classes for both CAE and Proficiency. This helps particularly when preparing people for the first exam in the Oposiciones. Vicki is also co-author of 3Sixty Five.
