Hi! My name is Sara and I come from Italy. I was born and raised in a town near Milan, but now I live near Cuneo, in Southern Piedmont, in the beautiful Maritime Alps. I have been a language teacher for almost ten years, but even before that I have always loved learning languages (I am currently learning German).Me as a Teacher
I like being an easygoing and friendly teacher, one that likes having a good laugh with her students! I'm a CELTA certified teacher, which means I'm up to date with the best practices regarding teaching a foreign language to adults, which means: structure when and where necessary, but lots of communication and a general focus on what is useful for you!My lessons & teaching style
Your lessons with me will be tailored to your needs, to who you are and why you are learning Italian (school, work, tourism, leisure). And to your level, of course. I like using a book, especially for beginners and elementary students, but we'll decide together what's best for you!
As I've already stated, I am a CELTA certified teacher, which means I know how to have a communicative approach, one that makes you actually use the language since the beginning.My teaching material

Sara is a wonderful teacher. Her confidence made me feel confident. The lesson went by so fast because it was fun and I was engaged the entire time. She was well prepared for the lesson with activities and is a gentle and knowledgable teacher.
I am excited to continue my Italian lessons with her!
I highly recommend her as a teacher.
