Vanessa

Ciao a tutti!
I am Vanessa and I come from Italy and I am here to help you learn Italian. I live in London but I was born in Rome. I am a qualified Italian Teacher to Adults and I am looking for private students to help them to become fluent in Italian.
I am currently working for two private Italian schools in London. I can speak Italian, English, Spanish and Czech.
I have a degree in Languages and Linguistic-Cultural Mediation in English and Spanish and I`m completing a Masters Degrees in Teaching and Promoting Italian language and culture (ITALS) through the University of Venice, Ca` Foscari.
I am also a CILS examinator and prepare students for CILS exams to get their language certification.
I have been teaching Italian and English to foreign people both offline and online.
I am very kind and patient and I always listen to all students` needs.
I truly enjoy learning about new cultures and countries, therefore I will have you speaking a lot :D
At the same time I will be teaching lots of things about Italian culture and our way of living.
I love teaching and share my language knowledge with my students. I also enjoy helping others experience the enjoyment and satisfaction of language learning. I love travelling and being able to communicate with the people I meet abroad.

Availability: I can teach on week days and weekends based on the availability.

Willing to travel: 3 miles

Experience: I have Italian and English teaching experience with both beginner and intermediate classes and I am happy to teach groups or individual. I always try to make lessons as fun and entertaining as possible by including games and fun exercises as well as educational activities of any kind. I believe that when you have fun and when you look forward to your next lesson, that`s when you are learning the most.
I use a fully communicative and up to date approach to teach Italian. While teaching I always present the language in the context and features as grammar, phonology and lexis are analyzed in everyday situations. I use a wide variety of up-to-date authentic material which give the students valuable information about modern-day Italian culture and society at the same time as developing the students` authentic linguistic and communicative skills. I use techniques and procedures made ad hoc to meet the students` needs. I will always provide detailed material and in case you want to learn something specifically, just let me know and we will cover it on our following class.
