University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!

➤ From NVC (Non Violent Communication) to pragmatic tools, empathy and emotional intelligence.
From personal to professional. From theory to practice with simulations. It's about putting in place rational tools to defuse conflicts and enter your comfort / security zone. In particular simple techniques which make it possible to improve its intimate, personal, professional relations to even solve and manage violent situations in a harmonious, effective and durable way.

➤ Indeed, the objective is to improve personal / professional communication & overcome any resulting conflicts. So how do you get a clear message across and make a difference?

➤ More precisely, the objectives are to:
0. Understand and identify the issues/risks then find a balance between empathy and conviction.
1. Use interpersonal communication techniques resulting from mediation to defuse tensions and gain distance.
2. Dissociate the relational and the nature of the disagreement - Overcome cognitive and psychological obstacles.
3. Acquire the techniques of self-defense and mastery without hurting and being hurt.
4. Face then defuse difficult behaviors (attempts at blackmail, threat, destabilization) or even dangerous with a mediation strategy.
5. Develop conflict management and negotiation skills, alternating attentive listening, active speaking and rationality in the face of the limited rationality of the angry individual.

➤ Whether your objective is personal or professional, defusing conflicts, negotiating and speaking relevant and successful must always be effective and efficient, with clear, simple and powerful messages, creating an adequacy between the message received and the message sent. Consistency between form and substance.

➤ So, how to listen and be listened to, convince and be impactful, challenge and mark the spirits, enhance its content, address its audience effectively and optimize the quality & clarity of the exchange / message? It is precisely a question of going through, applying and deploying practical and effective techniques of verbal and non-verbal communication.

➤ Thus, mastered, the practical method allows, through a set of simulations and scenarios based on your daily experience supporting pragmatic & concrete techniques, to improve self-confidence, self-confidence, but also to work on one's leadership & charisma.

➤ So, after having precisely defined your objective & gone through the blockages encountered, here are some examples of themes covered through concrete techniques & a methodology:
✓Tools and deployment of conflict management tools, including CNV.
✓Perfecting his rhetoric/repartee.
✓Fundamentals of Body Language to support and not interfere with the speech while being convinced & convincing, thus ensuring consistency between content & form.
✓Techniques to put your interlocutor at ease and appear friendly/interested.

➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practice exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can put them into practice immediately, this from the 1st session.

➤ This training allows you to learn about the concepts of emotional intelligence & empathy with the aim of better recognizing and understanding your own emotions and those of others. Being aware of emotions allows better management of behavior in human relationships, both in the professional, private and entrepreneurial context. For example, as a management key, it allows you to:

• Measure the impact of emotions in team management.
• Analyze your own mode of operation to make the most of it.
• Be able to put in place strategies to regulate one's own emotions and those of one's collaborators.

leadership styles.
• Motivate and mobilize its employees over the long term, and in particular in the context of interviews "to
strong emotional potential "(reframing, motivation, problem solving, tense sessions, conflicts etc.)

Emotional intelligence is a process of personal development over time. This training allows you to initiate the process, with concrete tools that can be applied on a daily basis. This training combines group activities, individual reflections, videos and scenarios.

From theory to practice with simulations. It is a question of putting in place rational and professional tools to achieve the objectives set together and overcome the blockages initially defined.

➤ Controlled, the techniques allow:

• to rely on emotional intelligence and capitalize on the empathy communicated to better ensure that his message is better received his message or being.

• improve credibility, self-confidence and ease (verbal-bodily) with public speaking and a more fluid sense of repartee

• defuse conflicts and enter their comfort/safety zone. In particular simple and logical techniques, which make it possible to resolve and manage violent situations in a harmonious, effective and lasting way, for example through CNV (Non-Violent Communication).

• to better manage negotiation situations (contrary to the clichés conveyed, negotiation is not only financial, but it can involve small daily events).

• Match the substance and form of your message while improving the use of your emotional intelligence.

➤ What you will get out of it:
• Better control of emotions and therefore of your way of communicating.
• Better understanding of the feelings of others and the ability to manage them successfully.
• Better relationships in personal and professional life thanks to superior emotional intelligence.
• Less stress thanks to a better understanding of one's emotions and those of others.

Learn to Perfect Your American English Accent and Communication Skills—for Work, Academics, and Everyday Life
Great for Study Abroad and International Students!

“Where are you from? ...No, but where are you actually from?”

I was born and have lived in the United States my entire life (28 years). I lived in the rural Midwestern state of Wisconsin until age 13. Then I lived, attended middle school, graduated high school, and attended university in the major U.S. cities of Chicago, Illinois, and San Francisco, California.

I come from a bilingual home, and my parents speak with an accent—but my American English accent is clear, standard, and natural.

I’m happy to work with you to help you sound more American. This can be extremely useful for English learners who want to communicate more confidently and comfortably in school, at work, and in daily life.

We will cover:
• Accent and pronunciation
• Pacing and rhythm
• Vocabulary and word choice
• Delivery and confidence

All techniques are based on evidence from linguistics and communication studies, so you’ll understand why they work—not just memorize rules. Accent and communication improvement is a science and an art.

I have worked in journalism, speech-language pathology, tourism, and customer service. I have experience in high-academic settings (like museums and graduate seminars) and everyday settings (like working in stores). I am currently working toward a Level 5 TEFL diploma.

I have one semester left in my degree in Spanish and Chinese at San Francisco State University, and I plan to move abroad for graduate school. I have also taken graduate-level classes in Chinese and Spanish. I speak eight languages fluently, and I understand what it takes to make a foreign-language accent sound natural and confident.
I’m warm, friendly, patient, professional, open-minded, and flexible. Every student has a unique journey in language learning, and I will meet you where you are to meet your goals.
