Italian native speaker, learning languages is my lifelong passion. I can speak 5 languages fluently and 2 on an upper-intermediate level. I have plenty of experience as a student of foreign languages as well as a teacher. Teaching is my passion, in my free time I love to practice and teach kitesurfing and windsurfing.

I began teaching Italian in 2019 and is now my job. I am certified teacher of Italian (CEDILS), specialized in lessons for test preparation.
My goal-oriented lessons focus on the goals of the students and on developing simultaneously the 4 skills of language learning: Listening , Speaking , Reading , and Writing.
My students generally love that they can learn grammar, vocabulary and phrases in a relaxed and friendly setting. My lessons & teaching style
For absolute beginners (A1-A2):
I have developed a course in PowerPoint which I will follow. We will learn and practice all the basic grammar, useful phrases and vocabulary. The course is supported a learning App to memorise words, and personalised homeworks.
For intermediate to upper-intermediate learners:
In the first hour I will assess the level and then create a tailored program aimed at improving their skills faster. Before each lesson, I will prepare a file in GoogleDocs to follow in class.
For students with a specific goal:
I prepare also for exams such as Celi, Cils, Goethe, Ielts.My teaching material

Elena is in the top 1% teachers in this application. I definitely recommend her clases!!The fact that she speaks several languages is a huge help when learning a new language. My native language is Portuguese, so she already knows what’s the most likely points I will be confused due to false cognates or other issues. I have clases with her every single day and she’s always punctual, enthusiastic, and prepared before each lesson. I feel that it’s definitely worth it

Elena stellt für den Unterricht Powerpoint-Folien zur Verfügung. Sie schreibt in einem Wordokument alles mit, was ich frage, erläutert mit Beispielen, stellt Zusammenhänge dar. Kompliment für diese individualisierte Form der Unterrichtsgestaltung. Ich freue mich auf die nächsten Stunden.
