About Me
italki teacher since Feb 23, 2021
I am a TEFL certified instructor from New York with over 10 years of experience, specializing in Business English and English for tourism. I have been living in Florence Italy for many years, so I know the difficulties in learning a second language and can understand what it is like to live in a country where you can’t always speak in your native language. Besides my passion for teaching, I have also cultivated my love for art. I have a BA and a Masters's Degree in Art History and as a licensed tour guide, I have developed communication skills, using clear English with non-native speakers. I know how important it is to break those language and cultural barriers to get your point across.
Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, I keep the language learning process simple and practical. I am patient and pay close attention to detail. I can help you to gain better confidence and improve your skills. I can customize a course just for you that is appropriate for your level and is suited to your particular interests.
In Italiano: Le lezioni vengono preparate con cura ma sono anche flessibili per affrontare eventuali problemi o domande. Il mio obiettivo è l'uso pratico dell'inglese per il mondo del lavoro e per una comunicazione efficace. Mantengo semplice il processo di apprendimento, fornendo strumenti per migliorare le capacità e acquisire sicurezza.
My lessons & teaching style
Lessons are carefully prepared before each meeting but are also designed to be flexible to address any arising issues or questions. My focus is on the practical use of English for business and effective communication.
Using a communicative method, I begin with selected conversation topics with introduction of new vocabulary words/items, then move on to developing comprehension with videos or texts. Grammar is introduced to support effective and correct communication. All lessons are designed for interactive student participation.
In Italiano: Utilizzo un metodo comunicativo, inizio con conversazione per l'introduzione di vocabulario poi passo alla comprensione e la grammatica nel contesto.
