Teacher name: Diana 

I am a native Spanish Tutor who works with groups of all abilities, as well as one-to-one tuition. I love languages and I really enjoy teaching my mother tongue.
I am currently working in a Language School for adults and as a Private Spanish Tutor in London.
I have about 10 years experience in education. More than one year teaching Spanish in London, six years as a Bilingual Technology Teacher in a Secondary School in Spain, dealing with 11-17 years old students in groups of 10 to 25, and initially as a private tutor, when I was studying to become a teacher.
I have the ‘Graduate Certificate in Spanish Language Teaching of Adults (GCSLTA)’ from the Instituto Cervantes of London and the University of Roehampton and I am in process to get the QTS (Qualified Teacher Status) in the UK, as I already have this qualification in Spain (CAP – Pedagogic Aptitude Certified). I am currently studying a ‘Master of Spanish Teaching as a Foreign Language’ (Universidad Internacional de la Rioja). I also have the DBS check which allows me to work with children.
The training as a Spanish Teacher at the Instituto Cervantes and the present Master that I am studying provide me a vast knowledge about teaching a foreign language. Additionally, I have a very good understanding of grammar. Furthermore, I have studied many courses relating to methodology, conflict resolution, motivation, use of ICT in education, techniques for studying, communication skills, etc.
I use an inductive methodology, explaining by example and helping students to build their own knowledge. The four skills of a language (speaking, listening, reading and writing) are balanced in my lessons.

I have good communication skills and I easily connect with my students. I like creating a nice atmosphere in the class and pushing my students to surpass themselves. I endeavor to relate directly to their interests and as such I always use varied and engaging materials in my classes. I combine the use of several text books (Bitacora, ELE, Gente, etc.), materials from different websites (www.espanolparainmigrantes.wordpress.com, www.todoele.net, etc.), real materials (newspapers, videos, songs) and materials created by me. I consider myself very dedicated to my job, energetic and positive. I enjoy embracing and learning from all the experiences in life such as travelling, working and meeting people.

Teacher name: Piercarla

Hi, I have been teaching Italian in London since 2002, to individuals, groups and companies, from very beginner to advanced. The students were from various nationalities, including British, Dutch, German, French, Indian, Japanese and more. I use the whole range of skills: grammar, listening, writing, conversation, pronunciation, translation, role plays, etc., and I always tailor make the lesson with what the students want to learn. Some of the individuals students have studied with me for up to 2/3 years. My teaching is very successful. One of my students was Japanese and he could not even speak English properly, but really wanted to go to Milan and buy Fashion speaking in Italian. I am quite a demanding teacher and within one year he did it, he went to Milan speaking in Italian. I have supported students who wanted to study Italian as a hobby, business people who wanted/needed to learn Italian for Business, students studying Italian at Universities here in London and needed support with their exams. I have also supported a student with his exams c/o University for Foreigners in Siena, which is a very advanced and demanding exam. I have also supported a Teacher. My teaching method is extremely innovative as I am also an NLP Master Practitioner, which enables me to tailor make the lesson according to the preferred learning style of the students. This is particularly if it is a one to one tuition. For one to one tuition I charge from £30, so I would not accept any job paid below £20 per hour. For Group/Corporate classes the price is obviously more. All lessons are prepared in advance. I am very professional, reliable, organized, hard worker. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for your time.
Kind regards, Piercarla Garusi

Italian Teacher in London

Name: Ambra

Having recently completed my CLTA course with International House London, I am ready and eager to take on a new role as an Italian Teacher.
As part of the course I taught in classes of Beginners and Intermediates, stimulating all three learning styles and developing students’ listening, writing and speaking skills through tailor-made lessons and materials. My tutors will confirm I showed a high level of commitment and professionalism and a strong ability of understanding students’ needs and building trusting relationships.
I have recently started to deliver One-to-One lessons at home. My teaching style is a student-focused and integrated approach aimed at discovering new grammatical structures in an active way rather than just “transferring” rules and knowledge.
Furthermore, I choose the communicative method, emphasizing the interaction among the students in order to learn with practice, in a very active fun way.
The students will have plenty of opportunities for conversation, for instance during activities of role play to practice the language in a natural context.
At the same time, since I consider the language a fundamental vehicle of culture and lifestyle, also interesting cultural aspects will be discovered through activities of reading and listening, videos and movies. I think that introducing cultural aspects is very effective since most of the students choose to learn Italian because they are fascinated by Italy’s culture, art, fashion and lifestyle.
Even though I take text books in consideration, I prefer to supplement them using tailor-made materials, in order to manage my lessons in a more original and interactive way and follow my purposes.

I have always been passionate about foreign languages and I have a MA in Languages and Cultures for International Communication and Cooperation. The fact that I have been a student of foreign languages as well helps me understand more my students, their weaknesses and their needs. I am a good observer and I am a very empathetic person, able to build trusting relationships with people. I have excellent communication skills, improved thanks to my previous jobs in Customer Service, Hospitality and Tourism. But what makes me a great teacher is especially my enthusiasm for teaching and the fact that this is what makes me happy. During my CLTA course I found myself more and more motivated everyday and enjoying preparing materials and delivering the lessons and I truly believe that no other job would make me feel the same.

The enclosed resume effectively showcases my instructional expertise, demonstrates my relevant accomplishments, and communicates my desire to keep teaching Spanish. Throughout my teaching career, I have had the wonderful opportunity to instruct a diverse group of students of different background and ages, I tough them Spanish as well as English.

Name of the teacher: Luz María

I have worked in Institutes of Italy and Spain from 2012 to 2014. My teaching methods depend on the group of students and are adapted to your needs. I used the deductive, when the matter studied comes from the general to the particular; inductive, when the studied case is presented through special cases, suggesting that the general principle that governs discovery; verbalístico, when the oral or written language is almost the only means of conducting the class; psychological, when the order followed responds more to the interests and experiences of students and intuitive method, when you try to approach the immediate reality of the student as possible generating excellent results
During my training in Hispanic Studies and a Masters in Secondary’ve done several internships in this area (one in Italy) this has given me the tools to do a job professor of Spanish language and literature in secondary education and Spanish language.
My knowledge of Spanish, Italian, English and cultures of the countries, allow me to offer your department dynamics appropriate to the needs in this field, typically arise in the classroom and students of foreign language work.
Collect the necessary trust and specific requirements and plan to be able to perform this job effectively.

I like teaching and I think I am a good teacher for several reasons: I choose, prepare and spend a lot of time to develop a good lesson, I’m not afraid to apologize or admit my mistakes, I am thoughtful and I take my work personally, I like to talk, can justify and explain my decisions, I worry about the quality of learning of my students, I am always looking for ways to improve my teaching practice and refine skills, value and involve myself much in relationships with my students. When my students need me I’m there to advise and help them until there is no other recourse.

Teacher name: Alessia 

I possess language teaching experience in a range of environments. In 2007, I spent three months in India working at the Italian Consulate of Kolkata where I organised and held an Italian language course for beginners. Additionally, in 2009, I was appointed by the Italian Ministry of Education to serve as an Italian language assistant in three Austrian high schools. On that occasion, I delivered Italian classes at various levels, from beginners to intermediate and advanced; I also planned teaching units and collaborated with Head Teachers. I assessed students during exams and requested feedback. Moreover, in 2012, I participated in the organisation of language classes as part of a project to teach Italian to a group of asylum seekers from Africa whose first language was French. I currently teach Italian to children and adults through various agencies in London. Finally, in March 2014 I completed the accredited DITALS II training course to teach Italian as a Foreign Language and in October 2014 I obtained the DITALS II qualification to teach Italian as a foreign language. My experience ranges from children to teenagers and adults. I have experience teaching to groups of people and on a 1:1 basis and I also used online platform to share teaching materials with students and for students’ self assessment. My approach to language teaching is mostly communicative with the creation of communicative situations where students can use their language skills in context and in real-life situations. With young children, I tend to integrate this method with a Total Physical Response approach.

I have been a language student myself in the first place, therefore I am aware of the needs of students of foreign languages. I have a strong background in language acquisition and a strong knowledge of new technologies to make language learning an enjoyable process. I have a deep knowledge of the Italian culture, having been born and brought up in the South, but having studied in the North. I bring a lot of culture into the class, including books or movies or news and information about society in order to make language a less abstract entity for my students.
