Meet Chloe

Did you know that around 50 new Learn Welsh tutors are starting work this academic year?

These tutors are based all over Wales - some working part-time, others full-time.

One of those who will start working part-time as a Learn Welsh tutor is primary school teacher, Chloe Edwards.

Chloe recently followed a training course with other tutors at Plas Tan-y-bwlch near Porthmadog.

Here’s a little bit more about Chloe:

Where are you from and where do you live now?

I'm originally from Crewe and now live in Conwy.

When did you start learning Welsh?

I started learning Welsh when I was in my third year at Bangor University.

What difference has learning Welsh made to you?

It has made a huge difference.  Learning Welsh has opened a door to the culture, history and music of Wales.

I've had many wonderful experiences since learning Welsh - experiences I wouldn't have had without the language of heaven!

Why did you want to become a tutor?

I love teaching Welsh to the children at school and I wanted to see if I would enjoy teaching adults too.

How was the weekend at Plas Tan-y-bwlch?

It was great!  I found it difficult to understand some words but everyone was very supportive and it was a good opportunity to expand my vocabulary.

When will you start working as a tutor?

I will be taking my first class in January, 2024.
