Me as a Teacher
I am a gregarious (friendly and sociable) person who is passionate about people. I am an attentive listener and will be a supportive part of your journey to becoming conversationally fluent in English. I believe that real-life conversations and exercises are the best way to sharpen your English-speaking skills. I use a range of tools, from online games, news articles, and google documents to enhance learning and practice.
My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style is casual and relaxed. In my class, the main rule is that we are NEVER overcritical of ourselves. My class is a safe space to learn, make mistakes and explore.
I prepare lessons based on topics that are interesting to you, allowing you to lead the conversation. I will also lead you in role-play exercises, where you can practice some conversation topics that will be handy for everyday situations. I will work to ensure that you always feel comfortable and that our lessons are interesting. I prefer to assist my students with corrections during the class and in the moment. I am very happy to use a range of materials to make the most of our time together.

I had a wonderful lesson with Trevi! Today, we did a role play about asking for advice on which course to apply for at university. It was really fun, and Trevi acted her role as well as an actress! Thank you!
