For these reasons, I hope to see you in the classroom.

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

I offer you a new learning experience.

To the uninitiated, a grammar book seems to be written in another language because the meaning of the words is incomprehensible. In a down-to-earth way, I'll translate the grammar into familiar words. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning while having a positive mindset.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both teenagers and adults who want to acquire a solid foundation of the Latin language without the time-consuming diversions of absurd school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for Latin. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

Do you ever know what you want to say at work, but struggle to express it clearly or confidently in English?

If you use English in professional settings and want to sound more natural, precise, and confident—without overthinking every sentence—this class is for you.

This class is designed for professionals who already use English at work and want to communicate more clearly, confidently, and effectively in real business situations. We focus on practical workplace communication such as emails, meetings, presentations, and everyday professional interactions.

Rather than general conversation practice, sessions are structured and goal-oriented. We work on clarity, tone, vocabulary choice, and phrasing so you can express ideas professionally without overthinking or sounding unsure. Each session is tailored to your role, industry, and communication needs.

By the end of this course, you can expect to:

✔️ Express your thoughts and ideas more clearly and confidently at work
✔️ Write professional emails that sound clear, polite, and natural
✔️ Speak up more comfortably in meetings and discussions
✔️ Explain ideas and opinions in a way others easily understand
✔️ Feel less nervous or stuck when speaking English at work

This class is best suited for motivated learners who want to improve efficiency and confidence in professional English and are willing to actively apply feedback between sessions.

If you are looking for a professional person, with experience using English in the workplace, with patience, always with a smile and who makes you like English, look no further.

I offer dynamic and fun classes and I also adapt to the needs of the students.
In addition, I have experience teaching students with special needs. I love using gamification to make classes more engaging.

I offer conversation classes to improve speaking and vocabulary :)

You'll learn English without even realizing it and while having fun! We'll develop your listening skills, improve your pronunciation, learn to express yourself in writing, and understand written texts.

We will work together on the skills required by official exams: activities for understanding oral texts, activities for producing and co-producing oral and written texts, activities for understanding written texts and the new competence, mediation activities.

And what's more, we'll learn the language from a cultural perspective to delve deeper into the reasons behind many expressions, phrasal verbs, and idioms. Culture, customs, values, and social conventions will provide the key.

Today's job market requires candidates to certify and demonstrate their English proficiency during the selection process. Companies have grown and become more international, and as a result, English has become the dominant language in this era of economic globalization. English is essential in the professional and work environment across virtually all business sectors.
How about we start learning English and achieve it together?
