History
Esther Sahagun has had extesive experinece in teaching Spanish to adults and children before starting her own language school, Lingua Diversa, with an Italien colleague. Since then Esther has launched the much liked weekend courses in Medina de Rioseco, just 12 km from her birthplace, Belmonte de Campos. Apart from that she was part of the team, who created the free BBC online course Mi Vida Loca (which won a BAFTA award in May 2009!).Gerda Brenner, who together with Esther came up with the idea of a weekend course, has been studiying Spanish for many years (and still keeps on learning!) After changing her carreer to become a German teacher Gerda enjoys being the second host to the weekend course. Gerda's varied working past includes employment at at the Austrian Trade Commission; launching innovative Austrian products in the London market and being an Area Manager for a large European food manufacturer.
