From 49.97 C$ /h

Hi there, I'm Alexandra! I am a native English speaker, from York in the North of England. I love going through the learning journey with people - honestly, I am a total nerd for knowledge. I am friendly, professional, and encouraging. I can help with spoken and written English, adapting to your needs and level.

I currently reside in Genova. I am available in person or online, for whenever suits you. I am a qualified teacher in the British system for Maths and Politics, and have experience working with English as a second language pupils as I have spent the last year working in a school in Spain. I have also taught at the University of Manchester on their undergraduate Politics course.

I hold 3 degrees: BA (Hons) Politics, Philosophy, and Economics; MA Political Theory; PGDE Leading Learning in Education (teaching degree), from the University of Manchester and Sheffield Hallam University.

Hope to hear from you soon!

About Me

- Super approachable teacher, with experience teaching all ability and confidence levels
- Tutoring and teaching are my passions - I have wanted to do this forever, and I love learning for myself too!
- I speak basic Italian, if you are totally new to English, we will still be able to work together
(parlo un po' di Italiano, se sai un po' di Inglese saremo in grado di lavorare assieme)
- I can teach you also job-specific language (for example, university level or business proficiency)
