Experience / Qualifications

My family speaks to me since childhood in Swiss German. I also grew up watching TV in German, that's why it's easy for me to understand and speak this language.
Also, my gymnasium year in Australia made me fluent in English.
As far as lessons are concerned, I have been used to giving support lessons in German since I was 15 years old. In addition, I recently followed two students for homework help mainly in German and English.

I offer you a new learning experience.

The focus is on practical application and theory is only introduced where intuition reaches its limits.

Whether you are a beginner or an advanced learner, my tailor-made lessons will accelerate your language acquisition in a positive learning environment.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both young people and adults who want to learn German or improve their knowledge without wasting time on nonsensical school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for German. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs. The programme focuses on your independence in spontaneous conversations in real life.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

Difficulties in English or French? Learning a new language is not easy, nor is discovering a new culture. Learning is much easier when you have fun, and when the lesson is based on the child's interests.

Scientific research increasingly shows that we learn better while having fun, by adapting the teaching to our tastes. For English it's the same ... if your child is a fan of Minecraft or Pokemon, manga or drawing, we will approach the subject while reviewing the notions of English acquired or in the process of being acquired.

I am a professional interpreter and translator with eight years of experience teaching people of all ages in Italy, China and Switzerland. I am an Italian national and the strong passion for foreign languages has pushed me to undertake an academic and professional career with English and Chinese. My goal is to transmit the same passion to my students through courses that are not only structured according to personal needs, but are also interactive, enjoyable and include interesting and diverse exercises and activities.

ME:

I have a Bachelor's degree in Oriental Languages and a Master's degree in Interpreting and Translation. During the latter, I won a four-month Erasmus scholarship in China. I have experiences as a translator and interpreter in Italy and Switzerland and I have worked as a teacher in Italy in primary schools, privately for high school students and adults and in China for children aged 3 and 8. In addition, I have done replacements and school projects in Switzerland.
In order to learn the language, I took elementary and intermediate French courses and I continue to study it independently but I do not yet speak the language fluently.
