- Mission: To create topical, entertaining and snappy blog entries for Vaughan’s newly-launched blog in Spanish. - Vaughan gave its bloggers complete freedom to come up with content. I found this to be challenging, fun and liberating. The following are blogs I completed while working there. - https://grupovaughan.com/a/la-sorpresa-en-ingles-la-tortura-del-que-heavy/ - https://grupovaughan.com/a/5-curiosidades-del-ingles-que-igual-no-conocias/ - https://grupovaughan.com/a/mejora-tu-ingles-con-los-5-sentidos/ - I enjoyed revealing the secrets of English to students in this micro format. I am equally comfortable writing in either English or Spanish.

- Mission: To create content students and readers could use to improve their mastery of the English language. - Daily Planner en Inglés (2015) – responsible for the concept and design of Vaughan’s 2016 Planner. Provided the weekly themes, phrasal verbs, themed vocabulary, monthly tests, fun facts etc. - Guiá de Supervivencia: Inglés (2015) – created and designed - a Survivor’s Guide to English (written mainly in Spanish) for everyday situations. The guide book has received five-star reviews on Amazon with comments such as “In addition to the information offered this book is useful and is a recommended purchase even if you have a good level of English”. - Guia Vaughan de Historia: Segunda Guerra Mundial (2015) – created the English content for this book. - Anaya – Mission Accomplished (2014-2015) – One of the main goals of Mission Accomplished with Vaughan is to develop students' self-confidence with English. This aim is achieved through listening and speaking, two of the most important elements of language learning with the Vaughan method. I created content for students (-8-year olds) and teacher books for this national curriculum English publication - the student book, workbook, an activity book, oral exercises (with the recordings) and of course teacher "how-to books". - ¡Prepárese Ya! (2013-2014) – wrote content for the weekly booklet published in El Mundo directed at job hunters. The subject matter was written in Spanish including all explanations of the minutiae of English grammar. - Provided the content for self-study books for students who were using the Vaughan methodology to prepare for formal "Cambridge" or "Trinity" English language exams.

- Mission: To create a one-hour weekly programme in English with celebrity news and gossip. The final result was called OH MY GOD! - Responsible for guest selection, researching topics, creating attractive sections, recording introductions and jingles and updating my social media profiles for the programme. - Popular sections included Celebrities Olé, Crazy Leaders, Hot or Not, What Celebrities Said. - With no radio experience, this was a real baptism of fire. I loved every minute of it. I had to learn about the technical side of radio – e.g. recording guests and ‘engineering’ the desk. - Learning how to manage and interview guests was another highly-stimulating aspect of the role.
