Private classes in Artificial Intelligence with a specialized teacherHello,
I'm a teacher with 12 years of experience, and I want to offer your child the opportunity to learn about something that will shape their future: artificial intelligence (AI). It's not just a topic of the distant future; AI is already here, and learning about it can give them a huge advantage in their education and, later, in their career.
I've been working with AI in my own companies for years and have extensive training, taking specialized courses and earning a master's degree in this field. My goal is for high school students, ages 12 and up, to understand how AI works and, most importantly, how they can leverage it. It's not about memorizing complicated concepts, but rather learning how to use tools that are already changing the world.
In the private lessons I offer, your child will learn how to use apps like ChatGPT, Copilot, Runway, and many more. We'll cover how to automate tasks, create video, photo, and audio content, and improve productivity. All of this is done in a practical and fun way, so that each lesson is a truly enjoyable experience that motivates them to continue exploring.
Additionally, each class is fully tailored and personalized to each student's needs. I ensure the content is accessible and relevant to each student, so they can progress at their own pace and get the most out of what they learn.
If you're looking for private lessons that really make a difference, I'd be happy to guide your child on this exciting journey into the future...today!
Let's talk and organize the classes!

Business and Legal Second Language English for Professionals and Students (including Real Estate Agents)I offer 2 approaches to ensure that you improve the level of your Business or Legal English performance.
One will be content-driven, structured lessons extending your vocabulary and brushing up on your grammar.
The other will be more chilled and conversational, where I sneak in some new vocab, introduce useful expressions and correct your grammar.
Either way, we will work to improve your speaking, writing, reading and listening skills to increase your confidence to use English in your daily work functions and tasks, such as formal emails, report writing, negotiations, presentations and court appearances.
Confidence is key and I am sure I can instill it in you. I can assure you that once your confidence improves so will your ability to use English in whatever form is required.

MAKING ONESELF HEARD! (For Presentations & Public Speaking)Explore Public Speaking through...
Intonation and Melody
When training for a presentation, decide which words and passages deserve extra attention and increase the tone to emphasize these points. If something sounds exaggerated or false, your audience can turn against you.
Volume
A speech is not ordinary conversation, and a presenter can’t convey passion and enthusiasm if the words are delivered softly.
Clarity
Don’t forget to articulate every word, to ensure clarity on your part and understanding on the part of the audience.
Emphasis
Even in the same sentence, emphasizing different words can change the focus of a message. Changing emphasis can alter meaning and/or implication.
Pauses
when pauses are placed in strategic spots in a speech, they can make the difference between a good and an excellent presentation. There are several purposes for which pauses can be used: to give listeners a chance to absorb something that’s just been said; to generate expectations about something that’s going to be said...
Pacing & Tone
If you often get negative feedback about the faster or slower delivery of your speeches, practice delivering a speech sometimes faster and sometimes slower, so you can arrive at a natural pace.
