Alice A.

I’m an enthusiastic English teacher with 10 years of experience teaching students of all levels and ages, most of them in English schools. I specialise in helping young Italian and Spanish professionals improve their English, as I'm fluent in both Spanish and Italian. I come from a very international background, my family are from the UK (London and Eastbourne), but I also have family in Italy. That was what inspired me to learn new languages and start teaching English, I have always wanted to empower people to have the same amazing adventures around the world as I had, like my grandparents were able to inspire in me. I'm now almost at the end of my seventh year of my teaching. I've prepared students for the PET, FCE, CAE, Trinity, IELTS and Aptis exams and have a hundred percent pass rate. I love creating good relationships with my students and my aim in teaching is to create a dynamic atmosphere in a learner focused class.
I've taught more than 2000 hours online, from Infants to Advanced, and I've had a lot of training on how to teach English successfully online, to adapt the contents to the students' needs, so that they can take full advantage of this innovative way of learning.

My methodology is based on a structure that is adapted to your needs, in which 100% of the communication happens in English. Learning by having fun and using interesting material plays a fundamental role in stimulating your memory and engaging you better in the learning process:
- Introduction of the object of study (the 1st part of the lesson introduces the language objective through examples on PowerPoint or in a video and short exercises);
- Meaning and form: checking your understanding and correcting pronunciation;
- Controlled Practice: Practice through interactive and fun exercises, to stimulate attention and curiosity;
- Freer Practice, where you start using the language that you have just studied in life-like situations. In this phase of the lesson, you will be encouraged to speak and write in English to put the teachings into practice and remember them better;
- Feedback, last chance to correct errors and answer any questions or doubts you may have.
