About Me
italki teacher since Aug 14, 2017InterestsPets & AnimalsHistoryReadingFilms & TV Series
Languages are my life—I’ve spent over 30 years teaching Italian, French, English, and Afrikaans, and my passion for communication only grows stronger with time. Whether you're looking to master grammar intricacies or want lively, real-world conversation practice, I tailor each lesson to your unique goals. My approach combines patience with modern teaching techniques, creating a space where mistakes are just stepping stones to fluency. Students often describe me as approachable (and surprisingly fun for someone who geeks out over verb conjugations!). Beyond teaching, I'm a proud parent of three adult children—twins and a singleton—and a doting grandmother to two little girls (aged 1 and 2).Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching languages since the age of 19 and have a lot of experience dealing with different types of people. I do have a lot of material prepared and I make it available to my students via email, Skype and WhatsApp. I am very organized, but the three decades of teaching experience allows me to 'go with the flow' if needs be.My lessons & teaching style
My teaching style varies a lot dependng on the requirements of the students. I aim to make the lessons as relevant as possible to the students, but I refuse to forego grammar and correct speech.My teaching material

We just talked the entire time, but maybe next time we will get a little more into the teaching aspect but I sort of enjoyed just building a rapport and through that learning vocab

I am not sure I can judge Sabrina's method from one lesson, this was mainly a conversation, something I was looking to do.
