It today's day and age, languages and communication play an essential part in our lives. They broaden ones horizons, stimulate the brain and can increase memory.
I'm a native Italian who's English mother and German father have enabled me to fluently speak Italian, German and English, accent-free. Having studied Translation Studies for my Masters In Cardiff, I have gained a strong understanding of language and culture and their relationship with each other.

In my tutoring classes, I will keep the work load light yet abundantly absorbing. Having studied languages most of my life I recognize the importance of "fun" when learning. As children have short attention spams i recognise the importance of keeping a tutoring lesson simple and to the point.
Depending on the pupil, my lessons will mostly focus on simple, every day life language, grammar, issues etc. As well as learning a new language I feel it's important that one also learns of its culture in order to gain a deeper understanding of its structure. Whilst written work will take place, I believe that at a younger age, new linguistic information is more easily digested through conversation. The lessons will entertain both written and oral work with small weekly refresher tests.

Présentation
I was born in Siena (Italy) and spent 13 years surrounded by the beautiful Italian countryside before I moved with my Mother and Sister to England. There, I completed my GCSE's, A levels and then went to Cardiff University where I studied Archaeology and Ancient History for my undergrad, and Translation Studies for my Masters. I'm an stereo-typically passionate Italian who's love for history, culture and language has led me to private tutoring where I can share my understanding and knowledge with the younger generations.
Having had private tutors for most of my teenage years, I have a strong understanding of what works and what doesn't work for most people when learning a new language. Most young learners only register and remember approximately 30% of the information they hear within one hour of lesson time. Therefore I intend to keep the lesson workload lighter with slightly larger homework tasks. As much as I used to hate homework when I was learning, I believe that associating one place with "learning" isn't enough. In order to learn a language one must cut out geographical associations in order for it to then become a daily normality. I also believe that learning a new language is aided by necessity and independent learning. Therefore weekly homework tasks will positively increase ones learning speed and capability.

Als Muttersprachlerin, biete ich Einzel-sprachunterricht oder auch oder Gruppenkurse für jung und alt!

Besons wichtig ist es für mich das Lernen Sprachen mit Spaß und Eigeninteresse zu verknüpfen! You can also find some gems and videos from other media, including podcasts, articles and YouTube videos, and they are also broadcast in the Gefühl des Zwangs und der Langeweile zu nehmen.

Even though there is no time to do it, you will be able to find out if there is a frequent response and even if you have some interest, you will have a motivation to do so. Sprachenlernen wird mit ein wenig Kreativität schnell zur unterhaltsamen Know!

The price is due to the fact that the Lehrmethode und Standort gemeinsam verhandeln! Ich bin da flexibel! :)

Hovhannes
Bonjour à tous! My name is Hovhannes (Johannes in German) and I am a 22-year-old student interning in Munich.

I graduated from a French high school with highest honors in 2018, yet 3 years ago (in 2015) I didn't speak any French at all. I then spent 3 years to complete my bachelor’s degree in Economics and Management, with a major in Economics. From 2021 onward, I study at a French business school (Top10) for my master’s degree in Corporate Finance. Currently living in Munich, I am here to do an internship at BMW finance department.

During my 6-month stay I would love to share my passion for foreign languages with you. I’m a self-taught polyglot as I speak 5 foreign languages: French, English, German, Russian and Armenian. I am native in French, English and Armenian. Indeed, I learnt French 7 years ago, so I am already familiar with most of the difficulties and challenges that you are going to face in a language leaning process. It would be my pleasure to share with you my experience and the precious tips that helped me to learn and improve my language skills efficiently.

I am here to help you to improve your speaking/writing/reading/listening skills. If you are looking forward to taking an exam, I’ll be happy to assist you as I have taken several language tests and exams. For example, I scored 81,5/100 in DELF B1 level test after only 8 months of learning French from scratch. At this point I am more than ready to help others to succeed in their exams. The idea is that I adapt to the needs of my students and teach in a contextual setting. Thus, it will be dynamic, captivating and easier to digest the information. Additionally, given my economics and finance background, I can teach you the technical vocabulary pertaining to these realms, by going through/studying some articles from famous French newspapers (eg. Figaro, Le Monde etc).

I have 2 years of experience in teaching English and Russian to pupils. I loved it. Hence, I decided to teach once again as I have some spare time at my disposal.

Courses can be held either in English, German or French (up to you to decide!). Most importantly, I prefer teaching face-to-face, because interacting with people in real life is the most effective method for language learning, according to my recent experience. Finally, small groups can be made in order to make this experience more fun and interactive, especially if you seek to enhance your conversational skills.

Looking forward to meeting you soon. A bientôt !
