Hi,
My name is Fernando López, I am Spanish and work at the Instituto Cervantes in Manchester. I have worked as a Spanish Teacher since 1986 in different countries.
I studied Spanish Filology at Madrid University, then I moved to Zanzibar where I started teaching Spanish to foreigners. Two years later I taught at Cairo University. In 1994 I went to Casablanca (Morocco) to join the Instituto Cervantes. In 1997 I came to Manchester. Now I am Head of Studies.
Basically, the I.C. was created to promote the Hispanic CUlture and Language. You can find more information at Instituto Cervantes and Cervantes, Manchester
