Acerca de mí

I pride myself on my excellent communication skills and friendly demeanour. I endeavour to tutor seriously although I`m naturally quite a laid-back person, which is quickly recognised by pupils and puts them at ease. I also relate well to pupils because the age gap is not so large. Students often look forward to our lessons, which they say motivates them and helps them to learn. I really value getting to know my students individually and enjoy learning from them through conversation. I like to provide homework tasks as they're for students benefit - i.e. will cause no stress/anger if not completed (unless parents think their children need a gentle nudge into action!) I provide textbook recommendations and I can be very flexible with lesson days. Past parents and students echo my sentiments, as proven by my reviews.

Mathematics/numeracy and exam preparation class (Up to KS4)

27.57 $ /h

I specialise in teaching maths to a number of classes and pupils. My goal is to make sure learners acquire a sound knowledge of numbers, measures and structures, basic operations and basic mathematical presentations, an understanding of mathematical terms and concepts, and an awareness of the questions to which mathematics can offer answers. I assign homework after every lesson and provide periodic progress reports.

A level Sociology Class (Exam preparation and subject knowledge)

27.57 $ /h

Sociology adopts the perspective that individual behaviour can only be understood by studying people's social context and their webs of connection. This can lead the sociologist to many different topics of study from reproduction of inequalities in relation to social categories (such as race, class or gender), to the shaping of intimate relationships by wider cultural contexts, or the generation of resistance and protest by economic trends and crises.

Your second and final year course units are usually assessed by a combination of coursework and examination. Other methods of assessment include:
essays and other mid-term evaluations, which allow fuller development of and feedback on your knowledge and understanding
dissertations, which promote the development of argument and fuller understanding of academic material and test the extent to which you can carry out work independently
presentations and group projects, which promote teamwork and develop your communication skills.

I truly think learning Spanish has to be enjoyable and challenging (positively) and my aim is to create a fun and positive learning environment in which you can really thrive, feel confident and tranquilo.

I like to approach my students to grammar structures and cultural comprehension of the language by a variety of methods and sources such as images, videos, interviews, audios, etc. and adjust exercises of reading, listening and conversation to topics related to their particular interests and personal motivations.

Spanish is the 4th most spoken language in the world, and being able to speak another language is becoming more and more desirable. As an A* Spanish student myself, I understand how difficult it can be to grasp a language in a classroom of 30 students. During my hour of tuition I will go through conjugating tenses in depth, speaking and writing skills.

Furthermore English literature is also my strong suite as an A* English student. I specialise specifically in GCSE English literature (Edexcel exam board) but will happily tutor for any other exam board. In English tutoring sessions I will go through key themes of plays/novels in depth and set essays once the student feels more confident. Before then, I will go through sample essays to discuss what went well and what could be improved.

“If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.”

This is what languages do... They open your mind and help you to understand others.
Spanish is the second or third most spoken language in the world, and speaking a second or third language makes the difference everywhere. School, jobs, life...

As a qualified teacher, I can say that having a language and getting a good mark in the GCSE for Spanish is easily achievable with a little bit of work and an open mind.

My lessons are very flexible, focused on active learning. You only learn if you do, if you make mistakes.
I do not like to talk hours not stop about grammar, or how Spanish derived from Latin... That is boring and useless, what I like is hearing you, and speaking with you.

I have experience both working with adult and young adults.
I work with the International House in London, as part of my certification as Spanish teacher for adults, teaching online a group of 10 to 15 adults online.
As an MFL teacher now, I am working mostly with KS3 and KS4. Usually the groups are 30.

Spanish is the second most widely spoken language in the world, with over 460 million native speakers. Learning Spanish enables you to communicate with a significant portion of the global population and opens up opportunities for travel, cultural exchanges, and friendships.

Learning a new language fosters personal growth and self-improvement as it challenges you to step out of your comfort zone, boosts confidence, and enhances cross-cultural understanding, encouraging empathy, open-mindedness, and a broader perspective of the world.

Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to improve your existing skills, this class is designed to cater to learners of all levels.

Flexible Schedule: Classes are conducted online and in person, allowing you to choose a schedule that fits your availability.

Structured Curriculum: The curriculum is carefully designed to ensure a progressive learning experience. We'll start with basic greetings and introductions, gradually building your knowledge and proficiency in the language.

Personalized Approach: Individualized attention and support, addressing your specific strengths and areas for improvement.

Cultural Insights: Learning a language is not just about vocabulary and grammar; it's also about understanding the culture behind it. We'll explore various aspects of Spanish-speaking cultures, including traditions, customs, and celebrations, to provide a well-rounded learning experience.

By the end of this online Spanish class, you can expect to have a solid grasp of the language and the ability to communicate effectively in everyday situations. Whether your goal is to travel, connect with Spanish-speaking communities, enhance your career prospects, or simply embrace a new culture, I will equip you with the skills you need to succeed.

I am a native Italian speaker and have more than two years of experience teaching Italian as a foreign language to English-speaking students. My path to becoming an Italian teacher began with a Bachelor's degree in Translation Studies for the German and English languages. I then completed a Master's degree in Teaching Italian as a Foreign Language at University of Bologna. Moreover, my passion for teaching the language and culture of my country led me to a second Master's degree in e-learning for teaching Italian to foreigners at University for Foreigners in Siena.

My teaching method is entirely based on the needs of the student. For those who mainly want to improve their oral expression skills, the lesson focuses a lot on conversation. In this way, grammar does not remain dry theory, but is applied again and again as you speak. Vocabulary will also come to you more quickly with practice. According to new didactic research, effective learning is closely linked to the experience of fun and ease and the lessons are designed accordingly.

No problem, more than 300 students have studied with me and learned while having fun. I started teaching at 19 thanks to the director of my high school and I have more than 15 years of experience, in Italy and abroad, all over the world thanks to the internet.
I offer online Italian courses for all levels, from absolute beginners to advanced learners, i.e., C2. I always have quality reference books to recommend to students.
My classes are highly personalized and tailored to the specific needs of each student. I guarantee quality because I put a lot of passion and care into everything I do, trying not to overlook the details.

🚀 During the lessons, I will help you learn the basics of general Italian, paying attention to pronunciation and intonation while reading.
