My degree focus was on Asian Studies. I studied Japanese for 4 years, studied abroad for 1 semester in Japan, and half of my classes were about Japanese culture and history. The other half of my classes were split between Chinese culture and broader cultural competencies.

Part hotel and part adventure camp for Japanese and international schools. The camp side focused on teaching English through outdoor adventures such as mountain biking or snowboarding. I taught English through crafts and camping. We had staff from Japan, USA, Germany, France, Peru, and Canada during my tenure. Working with so many people from around the world and teaching children through fun activities is something I hope to carry on at iTalki.

Working for a C-level executive gave me the opportunity to polish my phone, interview, and interpersonal communication skills. I would love to teach these skills to English-learners so that if they work with English-speakers or dream of working abroad they will have the skills to sound natural and professional.

This job was creative and customer facing. At this job I had to think on my feet and always put on a happy face for customers. As a teacher, of course, I always need to show kindness and patience to students. Thinking on my feet to come up with creative solutions has helped me when teaching English already, for example, coming up with games to play or sample questions to help students learn new material during class and after.

We specialized in tourist-driven large scale events. These events and music festivals, including the largest free music festival in California, were designed to bring people from different parts of the city into our neighborhood. The idea was that if they came for the event they would discover a new favorite shop or restaurant in our neighborhood.

Trip preparation

I went through three stages: a theoretical evaluation of general teaching and learning,  then a theoretical evaluation of English language,  and finally a practical evaluation with a real group of 30 high school students.

Posts about art, museums, history, travel and activism.

A trial lesson is set to get us to know each other but we need to take into account that we are sailing upstream on the river of time. So let’s say you book a trial lesson with me, we plan everything together through text messages and once we get into the lesson we get straight to work... I’m sure it is gonna be a good experience, so let’s do it!

If you are trying to develop your communicative skills, whether in a routine and everyday conversation or in an engaging and specific topic, my English conversation classes will help you become more fluent and more precise while providing you with the necessary tips to make your speaking more authentic.

I am pretty flexible in terms of topic because I believe by sticking to the topic that you choose, you will have a pleasant learning experience. On the other hand if you want me to pick up a topic, I can guarantee you will still be having a lot of fun.

One of the things that I believe really matters in a convo class is the way a teacher corrects you. Many teachers tend to overcorrect their students which might sound interesting at first; however, overcorrection undermines your fluency and makes it harder for a learner to become fluent over a period of time.

I am looking forward to seeing  you folks.

English Conversation

Each month there are ten titles for you to choose from. Booking these classes requires you to have a good command of English so you can read the texts on your own. Together in class, we discuss those texts, read important segments of them, talk about the historical and social contexts that these books are set in, and if you feel like it, you can write your analysis of these texts for which you will get feedback from me.
If you want to take this class, you need to have a good command of reading and speaking. This class is only available in long session formats (1h, 1h30)
Please feel free to reach out to me to get the titles of the month!

World Literature in English

(فارسی پایین‌تر)

If you want to go on a really particular learning journey, Farsi is definitely the one for you. It is a fabulous language, that is full of particular nuances. It has a touch from old and extinct languages, from classical languages and from the modern and contemporary ones. You can learn a totally different alphabet and a vast array of so many particular sounds that exist in Farsi and you do not usually find all of them together in Western and European languages. Bear in mind that Farsi has two forms: a written one and a spoken one and they are significantly different with each other. You do not necessarily need to learn the written version if you just want to talk to people or visit some Farsi speaking countries but if you want to grapple with engaging texts, you can still count on me. I work as a translator of human science texts to Farsi which means I have the necessary mastery of the written language too.

I am waiting for you in the class, what are *you* waiting for?

اگر می‌تونید این نوشته رو بخونید یعنی احتمالا فارسی خوب بلدید و می دونید که فارسی یاد گرفتن چه تجربه‌ی منحصر به فردیه. توی کلاس با من می‌تونید حرف زدنتون رو تقویت کنید، ویژگی‌های خاص فارسی گفتاری رو یاد بگیرید و با اصطلاحات خیلی خاص تو فارسی آشنا بشید. اگر نیاز دارید فارسی معیار بلد باشید که بتونید متن بخونید حتما رو کمک من حساب کنید. من مترجم متون و مقالات به فارسی هستم و با فارسی معیار آشنایی کامل دارم. تو کلاس منتظرتونم، شما منتظر چی هستید؟

I basically try to plan your learning according to your interests and I am open to suggestions from you if you want to learn or focus on a particular aspect of language. I am waiting for you in the class; what are *you* waiting for?

Corso di Italiano - Italian course

A recommendation letter from my thesis advisor to the school here I applied for PhD

I got admitted to the American Studies program in University of Turin which is an interdisciplinary course of Literature and History of the Americas. I have just started my second semester. This course focuses on American literary movements and their historical roots studying them from a sociopolitical aspect.

I graduated in English language and literature

I have been working as a teacher to elementary and junior high school students training the students to participate in Cambridge Young Learner exams. Over the past six years, a high percent of my students have passed their exams with distinction and they have developed a visible interest in learning languages in general. I conduct lessons entirely in English and the students get the chance to improve their understanding very quickly and become active users of English very quickly.

In this school, I taught English to adults who need to develop their English for personal or work reasons. The school often kept me for higher levels which are more conversation-based. I used to use the latest topics and issues for such classes using articles from magazines or TV programs where students got to enjoy very authentic and up-to-date discussions.

Docere is a local recruit agency that puts job applicants through with companies and in order to increase their chances of finding a job, offers them courses that can develop their various skills. In 2015, the agency decided to include English in its course list. In this agency, I was basically in charge of everything from preparing, and conducting, placement tests, to teaching the courses and assessing the students.
