About Me

I have 7 years experience teaching English Language and Literature to ages 3-18, including students in both International and Dutch schools in London, Amsterdam and Amstelveen.

I get to know the student as an individual and try to instill in them an understanding and enthusiasm for the subject. I am patient and friendly, as I believe it is important to ensure that tutoring is seen as a positive experience which can help a student achieve their full potential. By using a mix of techniques, using video clips, quizzes, TV shows and worksheets, I aim to keep the subject alive, but also ensure all my teaching is rooted in solid exam technique where necessary. My students have gone on to have a marked improvement in their grades and pass exams at a higher level than they were predicted before tutoring.

I have also helped professionals perfect their English and submit applications, presentations and publicity material in English.

I can coach anyone with their public speaking or drama related needs, since I am a professional working actress, trained in London. I love to help students wishing to apply for drama school in the UK or America with their entrance auditions.

Education

Post Graduate Diploma in Professional Acting, Drama Studio London 2013.
BA (Hons) English Literature and Film & Theatre, University of Reading, UK.
I have worked as a personal tutor in the UK and Amsterdam for the last 7 years.

Experience / Qualifications

Private tutor to high-school students in Amsterdam, teaching English as a foreign language and English literature and language for essay writing and presentation skills.

Learn English to speak, write, read, listen!
English is the main language of the world; it is a language in which most people communicate with each other. Most podcasts, books, films and series are often made in this beautiful language. That is why it is very important nowadays to be able to speak and listen well in English. You really can't start studying English early enough. That's why I'm here for you, if you want to take your English to the next level - however young or old you are. In my lessons we will work with this important and special language as much as possible via webcam or at a location somewhere in Amsterdam or at your home; vocabulary, speaking skills, accents, interesting texts we will all go through and practice very well with me as a teacher so that you can also converse flawlessly in English!!

Giorgia
Italian language lessons from a native speaker - any level
Hello everyone! I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy. I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language. I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments. Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages. The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above). Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!
