About Me
italki teacher since May 10, 2021
My name is Emanuela and I live in Italy. After graduating in Italian literature I specialised in teaching italian as a foreign language in London, where I lived for 6 years and taught for 3 running my own business as a private tutor. There I met many enthusiastic students and I realised that learning can be fun both in person and through online lessons. I now live in a small town in Piedmont, noth west of Italy, where I enjoy the company of my friends, a sunny afternoon on my balcony and playing with languages, by watching videos, films and series in different languages.
Me as a Teacher
Working as a teacher with many different students and learning styles forces me to adapt my materials and subjects to each and every person I have in front of me. Therefore teaching is never boring! I realised that students are mainly interested in conversation and developing the speaking tips that are so important to get through a real situation with native speakers. So, in my (our) lessons the student will be the one speaking, the main character who, with my guidance, will be able to find a way to express him/herself in a new language!
My lessons & teaching style
In our lesson we will deal with speaking, listening, reading, a right amount of grammar tips (and some exercises). In line with the most recent linguistic theories we will practice an everyday language, used in everyday real situations so we can immerse ourselves in real spoken italian. Newspaper articles, youtube videos, famous songs will also be part of our interactive meetings, where we can discuss not only the language but also Italian culture. I am open to any kind of suggestions regarding topics or focusing on one area of studies.

She did a great job helping me and taught me the way I asked her to (explaining Italian with Italian). She also taught me useful pronunciation. It was a great help and I hope to take more classes soon!
