Greetings! My name is Jolie. I was born in the United States and currently live in the beautiful country of Italy. I teach English locally and online to hundreds of English learners from various parts of the world. I enjoy chatting about coffee and cats (I have three!) in addition to participating in the wonderful cultural and personal exchanges that language teaching and learning brings.
Me as a Teacher
I am TEFL-certified and currently teach conversational lessons online and in Italy. While my approach to teaching is rooted in the necessity of conversation, my lessons integrate grammar, vocabulary, functional language, and, most importantly, your needs! I have been teaching English since 2024 and quickly discovered that the world of learning and teaching languages is dynamic and that we are always adapting to changing needs. For this reason, I enjoy offering various options for the learner's needs while still maintaining the fundamentals. I try to foster an environment that is relaxed and allows for (necessary) mistakes to turn into growth.
My lessons & teaching style
I have 5 Language Flow course options that incorporate grammar, vocabulary, functional language, and conversation for A1, A2, B1, B2, and C1 learners. The other course option is Conversational English where we can have spontaneous conversations (for those who enjoy simply engaging with the English language in the most casual way), or we can follow guided conversations, reading-based discussions, grammar focuses, practice functional/useful vocabulary, or even a mix of each from lesson to lesson. Booking a trial lesson is the first step; from there, we will discuss your needs and continue your journey. See you soon! <3

Джоли идеальный учитель для меня! Она очень ответственная, всегда отвечает на сообщения, учитывает все пожелания к уроку. При этом она еще и очень милая, добрая, открытая, приветливая :) Jolie is the perfect teacher for me! She is very responsible, always answers messages, takes into account all wishes for the lesson. At the same time, she is also very nice, kind and open person :)

Great class, thank you for listening to my talk!
I'm sorry if I talked too much, next time I will take some breaks.
You are very patient!
