Scienza
I'm passionate about teaching and dedicated to helping you achieve your language goals. With a robust background in teaching English, I bring a wealth of international experience from living, working, and studying in the United States, Costa Rica, Ecuador, and Colombia. Fluent in English, Spanish, French, and with some knowledge of Mandarin, I understand the challenges of learning a new language firsthand. Whether you’re aiming to improve your conversational skills, prepare for exams, or excel in business English, I’m here to provide personalized lessons that are engaging, effective, and tailored to your needs. Let’s embark on this language journey together!Che tipo di insegnante sono
As a teacher, I draw from a wealth of diverse real-world experiences. Achieving proficiency in Spanish at a C1 level, French at a B2 level, and Mandarin at an A2 level has given me firsthand insight into the challenges and joys of language acquisition. My teaching journey includes roles such as teaching English for the Ecuadorian Ministry of Tourism Development and Spanish for the Guyanese Ministry of Education. Extensively tutoring in the United States and Colombia has further enriched my ability to adapt my teaching approach to students from over 30 countries, ensuring each learner receives personalized support tailored to their unique background and goals.Le mie lezioni e il mio metodo di insegnamento
My lessons focus on practical language skills. I teach my students to communicate in real-world situations. I prioritize active participation and personalized attention. Whether we’re working on grammar fundamentals, pronunciation, or conversational fluency, I use a variety of resources, exercises, and cultural insights to make learning enjoyable and relevant. My teaching style emphasizes building confidence through constructive feedback and encouraging students to actively apply their skills, ensuring steady progress and achievement of their language learning objectives.Il mio materiale didattico
