👋 Ciao, this is Elena! Welcome to my profile!
I love learning languages and helping people learn a new language.
🎓 I graduated in Classics and Archaeology. Yes, my study was mostly about ancient languages. But this makes it easier to learn and teach alive languages too.
📜 I'm qualified for teaching English and Italian as a foreign language.
I also have experience teaching children (mainly English and History) 🦄
☕ I love drinking tea and coffee. Please feel free to bring your cup :)

Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
🎯 Students at the centre
My teaching method is based on customized learning material and on a program tailored to the student's aims and interests. My goal is to help you learn the language, so you will start speaking as much as possible starting from lesson #1.
🎡 Learning + fun = success
We will keep the conversation relaxed and focused on the things you enjoy. Grammar structures are not going to be neglected either. My technique involves the use of interactive material.

Ottimo, bellissimo, come sempre un grande piacere fare lezione con Elena:) Oggi ci siamo concentrati sulla pronuncia italiana. Abbiamo parlato degli accenti italiani, abbiamo letto qualche dialogo insieme e poi ho provato qualche scioglilingua. Tutto molto interessante e divertente. A presto, non vedo l'ora!

Elena is the best teacher! I would never have come so far in speaking Italian without her.

Elena is a wonderful teacher. Not only am I acquiring new knowledge and skills as a 2nd language speaker, I am also feeling more confident in taking risks while speaking - which ultimately contributes to my learning. Choosing italki, and Elena as my teacher and guide, was the best decision I made in regards to learning Italian and really making it a part of me. Grazie Elena!

Elena is the best teacher. I have learned so much, and have come so far in my ability to read, listen and speak Italian. She has helped me to feel much more confident and given me the space to try and to make mistakes which has enhanced my learning and growth as an Italian speaker.

We always have a lot of conversation, which is what I have asked for. That always leads to very a natural progression of grammar and speaking lessons, homework and practice. It is a very organic and individualized way of teaching and engaging.
