Languages are my passion and my profession. I am a teacher and a professional translator. I have spent many years abroad because I love travelling and knowing new cultures. I speak almost 6 languages and I know how difficult it may be the language acquisition process. Knowing more languages is surely an advantage in teaching!! :)Me as a Teacher
I graduated in foreign languages (English, German and French) and I have second a degree in interpreting and translation (English and German). I have over 15 years of experience in teaching and translating. My translation skills help me a lot when it comes to teaching languages for specific purposes, such as legal, medical, business, etc..
At the beginning of our course, I will give you a language assessment test in order to evaluate all your language skills. Language assessment is important because it helps teachers to perceive, analyze and use data on student performance to improve teaching and support students in the best way. My lessons & teaching style
My courses are:
1. One-to-one classes
2. Group classes
3. Language for specific purposes (LSP) classes
My lessons are all based on communication, which I find an essential aspect of all language classes. In each class, there will be a lot of speaking practice and we will focus on the language that you need. I will correct your grammar and pronunciation as you talk because I think this is the best method to remember and correct mistakes. I have also 5 years experience in the preparation of Cambridge English exams.
I also teach languages for specific purposes (LEGAL, COMMERCIAL, MEDICAL, FINANCIAL), which is highly student-centred and focused on learners' professional linguistic needs.My teaching material

Legal & business translator and interpreterAs a Court-appointed translator and interpreter I work everyday with legal documents. This has given to me the oppotunity to build a strong background in the legal and business field.
I know the terminology very well and thanks to this experience I'm able to hold legal and business English courses.

Super!! Prima vera e propria lezione con Antonia e devo dire che ho fatto la scelta migliore a sceglierla come tutor di questo mio percorso. Imparare una lingua non è mai facile, ma se viene insegnata con passione e dedizione si sente la differenza! Grazie Antonia :)
