About Me

Hello everyone!
My name is Paola and I live with my family in a small town in northern Italy. I have been teaching children and adults for about 20 years. I am very passionate about languages and have attended many teacher training courses in Italy and the UK.

One of my interests is art history and I have experienced that teaching a language using a motivating topic can be more useful. For this reason, in my lessons, I focus not only on grammar and pronunciation but also on the cultural characteristics of each country.

I am an easy-going and friendly person, always enthusiastic about what I do, and ready to meet the needs of my students.

We can plan in advance what you would like from our lessons.

- University Degree in foreign languages (English and French)

Sara
Italian online: learn at your own pace with a native teacher
Ciao! I'm Sara and I'm an Italian teacher with more than 8 years of experience teaching this wonderful language! I began teaching when I was studying my Bachelor's degree (che bei tempi!) ... I started almost as a joke but I realized soon that I actually liked this profession and, after so many years, I still feel the same! Throughout the years I had the opportunity to work with a variety of students and each of them taught me a lot: every teaching experience is unique and this is why I love it. That being said, maybe you would like to know something more about how I work. I will build a tailor-made learning path, which is shared and discussed with the student, but also select the material and the topics that best suit each person. If I had to choose my strongest point, I would definitely say that it is the kind of relationship I establish with my students: open and informal to make learning easier and to fully enjoy the experience.
