Information About Giulia:
Personal Description:
Ciao a tutti! If you are a beginner and want to learn Italian to travel, to better connect with Italian friends and family or for your career, you're in the right place! If you are an intermediate/ advanced and you need something more than just endless grammar exercises, then you're in the right place!
Whatever your dream is, whether it's experiencing the beauty of the language itself, traveling, career, opening up your chances for friendships in Italian, you can achieve your goals here!
Here, you can start speaking on day one. Practicing Italian with an Italian native speaker will give you the opportunity to boost your self-confidence.
Italian language is globally considered a must-learn for art, opera and food lovers!
Together, we'll discuss which aspects of the language are holding you back and we'll develop a plan for you to improve and we'll dedicate time to comfortably practice those skills.
My lessons are very engaging and fun: I combine materials such as videos, songs, clips from movies, newspaper's articles, books and podcasts.
Book a lesson and we'll talk about the aspects of Italian you struggles with and you'll have a good idea for what you'll need to do to get better!
I'm Giulia, an Italian teacher living in London. I have a TIAFL certificate (Teaching Italian as a Foreign language), obtained at the Italian cultural institute of London.
I've also attended an online course with Cambridge Assessment English for Online teaching.
I graduated in Teacher Training in Italy in 2012 and I've attended an MA in Human rights & Culture at Goldsmiths University of London in 2018.
I have been teaching Italian and English to refugees as a volunteer in the past (both in Italy and in London) and since then, teaching languages has become my main passion and vocation!
Teaching Experience:
I have more than three years of experience in teaching Italian both one-to-one and to classes of all ages and all levels.
Tutoring Approach:
My teaching approach is the communicative approach which is very student-centred and based on the idea that learning language successfully comes through having to communicate real meaning. I mainly focus on speaking and listening from the very first lesson because I want my students to develop their conversational skills in Italian. My method emphasises interaction through open-ended discussions, role plays, and many other activities.
I'm a very enthusiastic, patient and cheerful teacher. I always do my best to make students feel supported, relaxed and motivated.
I offer extra activities for my students to keep practicing at home and each lesson is individually tailored according to my students' needs.
