■ Since 2009 I have been working at the Cervantes Institute as an OFFICIAL EXAMINER of DELE diplomas (Diploma in Spanish as a Foreign Language)

Having extensive teaching experience, I prepare students/adults for all levels of the DELE Spanish Diplomas and for all official Spanish exams within Universities.
● Spanish courses for adults who intend to travel or live in a Spanish-speaking country.
● Specialized fun Spanish courses for children (6-13 years old), audiovisual material, interactive games on the internet, choice of textbooks taking into account their age. Children learn the language through experiences and experiences while having fun.

● Spanish courses for adults who use Spanish in a professional context (Business Spanish: tourism/restaurants, law, etc.)
● Spanish pronunciation/phonetics/conversation courses (exercises provided by the Cervantes Institute). During my Master's degree, I specialized in Spanish phonetics for foreigners. Students can achieve a very good level of oral production even if they are beginners* :)
● Written production, grammar, oral and written comprehension.
● Spanish civilization course.
I live in Spain, so I give all my classes on Skype.
Skype classes are very flexible and as effective as face-to-face classes! (100% success rate for all Cervantes Institute DELE diplomas and all university exams!)
■ COMPLETE learning materials provided to all my students according to their personal level/age/interests (DELE preparation manual, grammar book, pronunciation guide, notes, mp3 audios)


I will be happy to read from you.

A greeting,
Joana :) 👩🏻‍🏫🇪🇸

Spanish is my native language. I grew up speaking Spanish and Catalan at home, and I was educated in several languages, which gives me a concrete perspective on what works (and what doesn't) in language learning.
I offer Spanish lessons for secondary school students and for beginner or intermediate teenagers. The program, depending on needs, includes: grammar (conjugations, ser/estar, subjunctive), vocabulary, written and oral expression, text comprehension, and preparation for school assessments.
For students taking Spanish as a subject in middle or high school, I work with their textbook and exercises. For those learning for personal interest, I adapt the course to their goals (travel, Spanish-speaking family, enjoyment of the language).
As a native speaker, I can also convey cultural nuances and idiomatic expressions that textbooks don't always cover.

Hello! / Bonjour ! / Ciao! / Merhaba!

Are you looking to improve your English for university, career advancement, school exams, or everyday conversation? I am here to help you reach your goals with personalized, engaging, and highly effective lessons.


I am a Master's student at UNIL, holding a BA in English Literature and the Cambridge CELTA certification. I have over 5 years of professional teaching experience working with children, teenagers, and adults across all language levels (A1 to C2).

Because I speak French, Italian, and Turkish, I understand how different native speakers learn English and also have difficulties learning it. I can easily explain tricky grammar rules using comparisons you will actually understand!

What I Offer:
Academic Support: Help with school homework, gymnastics/maturité prep, or UNIL/EPFL university assignments.

Exam Preparation: Focused training for Cambridge (PET, FCE, CAE), IELTS, or TOEFL exams.

Conversation & Fluency: Boosting your confidence, perfecting your pronunciation, and expanding your vocabulary.

Business & Professional English: Interview prep, resume polishing, and professional presentation skills.

My Teaching Approach:
- No two students are the same. I tailor every single lesson to your specific pace, interests, and goals. I focus on creating a supportive, interactive environment where you feel completely comfortable making mistakes and growing your confidence.

Lessons can take place online, at the UNIL campus, or at a convenient location in Lausanne. Feel free to send me a message to discuss your goals. Let's make learning English enjoyable and stress-free!

Hello! My name is Allegra and I currently live in Lausanne. I am Italian and I offer language exchanges in Italian, but also in English, which I speak fluently after living in the United States.
The idea behind a language exchange is first and foremost to practice a language naturally, through conversation and everyday interactions. It's not necessarily a traditional lesson, but rather a pleasant opportunity to speak, ask questions, correct mistakes, and gain confidence in speaking. I can adapt to each person's level and needs, whether it's to improve conversation, pronunciation, vocabulary, or simply to have the chance to practice regularly.
I already have experience in this area, particularly with children living abroad in Italian or American families. I have worked with children who wanted to maintain contact with their parents' language and practice it in a natural and fun way. Therefore, I also offer conversation sessions for children, tailored to their age and level.
I am a responsible, reliable, and patient person, and I enjoy creating a relaxed atmosphere where learning can take place without pressure. I am primarily available in the late afternoon and on weekends.
Looking forward to getting to know you and chatting with you!
