Note: If you can't find an empty slot or would like to have lessons at a different time feel free to contact me. I'm Alexander, pleased to meet you all! I'm half British, half Italian (I was born in the UK but I've always lived in Italy) and I'm very lucky to be fluent in both languages. I currently live in Sicily. I love learning new languages and learning about new cultures. I'm also passionate about writing and photography.

Me as a Teacher

In addition to having CAE (Cambridge Advanced English) and TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) certificates, I have been teaching English and Italian online since 2017 and have gained a great deal of experience. Moreover, I have experience teaching English here in Sicily privately and from time to time I work as a translator. Oltre ad avere i certificati CAE (Cambridge Advanced English) e TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language), ho acquisito molta esperienza insegnando Inglese e Italiano online dal 2017 fino ad oggi. Inoltre, ho esperienza come insegnante privato qui in Sicilia e ogni tanto lavoro come traduttore.

My lessons & teaching style

My lessons mainly focus on conversation, as I truly believe that's the best way to learn a language, and our conversations can be about anything you want. Grammar is also important so I'll do my best to help you with it should it be necessary. I can also help you with your homework if needed. Le mie lezioni focalizzeranno principalmente sulla conversazione, dato che penso che sia il miglior modo per imparare una lingua, e le nostre conversazioni possono essere su qualsiasi cosa voi preferite. La grammatica è anche importante quindi, se necessario, cercherò di aiutarvi il più possibile. Posso anche aiutarvi con i vostri compiti.

Alexander is an engaging, friendly, and informative teacher and I am very much enjoying my Italian lessons with him. He creates a comfortable environment to practice speaking in and is very patient with beginners! It is invaluable to have experience speaking about daily topics with a native speaker, and I would highly recommend Alexander to any students wishing to hone their Italian conversation skills.
