What I do

Three things, one job: helping people learn.

Education

Edukko

I founded Edukko because finding a genuinely good tutor shouldn't come down to luck. Parents come to us at the hard moments: a subject that stopped making sense, an exam year that arrived too fast. We put the right teacher in front of the child and stay until it's working. Schools run our after-school language programmes too.

Mostly reels, on Instagram and TikTok: family, training, travel, coffee, and the comedy Mina and I make about being married. I've partnered with brands across these same sectors, and I hold a UAE social media licence. The media kit has the audience breakdown and rates.

Language training

French & Spanish

One to one, small groups, and corporate programmes for teams who need to work in French or Spanish. DELF, DELE and IB Language B when you need the certificate, and the kind of practice that gets you talking instead of conjugating in your head when you don't.

  • DELF
  • DELE
  • IB Language B

  • Conversation
My method Every lesson is built around you, and most of it is speaking. What you learn keeps coming back in new situations until it comes out without thinking. That's where the confidence comes from.

About

I never actually left the classroom.

I grew up in the Pyrenees and spent my twenties moving between countries, classrooms, and the five languages I picked up on the way. Dubai was meant to be another stop. Ten years on, I'm married to Mina and we're raising our son Elias here. And I've supported Barça my whole life; growing up where I did, it was never really a choice.

I taught in schools for years before leaving to create content and take my own students. That decision is the one everything else hangs on.

Edukko came out of it: parents who wanted real academic help and had no reliable way to find it. I still teach French and Spanish myself, because giving that up would mean losing the reason the company exists.

The rest goes on camera, including the parts that don't go to plan. I also write on education at Brainz Magazine.
