I was born and raised in Italy but I lived in the UK for almost 7 years. I started teaching Italian and English in 2015. I worked for private language schools and NATO Defense College in Rome. I teach children and adults, group and private lessons. My lessons are tailored to fit the level and the needs of my students. I always make sure that my students are in a serene environment and enjoy their lessons. I have the DILS-PG and the CELTA certifications to teach both Italian and English as a second language. Also, I have experience in preparing students for international exams such as KET, PET, FIRST.

Italian is my mother tongue, I love its sound, its grammar structure, the culture it expresses.
I hope to pass on to my students my passion and enthusiasm, thanks to the experience I made at university, where I studied ancient Greek and Latin, then working as a teacher in high school, and gaining the DITALS, which is a diploma to teach Italian to foreigners.
I have experience with students of different levels and age, and I gear each lesson towards my students' goals and preferences.

English and Spanish teacher and have a Master's degree in Education from the National University of San Antonio Abad of Cusco. My diploma has been apostilled and subsequently officially translated into German for the Swiss System. I have been teaching English and Spanish in private schools, from A1 to C2 level, for seven years. I have experience in teaching students with different cognitive skills or difficulties to process the information received and also have the ability to teach a language without the need to use any word in other languages unless required. Not only have I given Spanish Grammar and conversation lessons, but focused on Anthropology, Cultural expressions and Literature. Besides teaching, I have translated material for lessons, Spanish-English English-Spanish, and interpreted Spanish-English and English-Spanish during health campaigns and social projects in rural communities with San Blas Spanish School. In Peru, I worked for the University of Sheffield, from England, supporting a researcher in translating interviews English-Spanish and Spanish-English and interpreting when interviewing local people. I have an A2 level in German from the Peruvian-German Cultural Association ACUPARI, licensed by the Goethe-Institut.

Hi. I’m Manuel from the capital of Spain, Madrid. Currently I’m living in Liechtenstein finishing my Architecture Master.
When I was living in my country I never before could imagine how people loves the Spanish language. As a foreign here I realized that people from Switzerland considered the Spanish language as the second most important in the list after English. I just wanna enjoy with you sharing my Knowledge, and you could learn the native expressions (different than the book learning technic).

Have a nice day

Need help with the IELTS speaking test?

I can offer one-on-one tutoring to help you learn more about the speaking part of IELTS and help you achieve the band score you need. I can help you identify areas to improve, like:
- how many and what kind of grammar mistakes you're making when speaking
- how to improve your pronunciation to be more accurate in clear
- how to hold a conversation and meet the examiner's expectations
- how to expand your vocabulary to be more appropriate for the test

I am a native English speaker and have years of experience as a university academic English lecturer (including IELTS workshops). I know university's expectations for students' speaking abilities and how the IELTS tests this.

Together we can cover the structure of the test and practice so that you gain some experience before the actual test date. I can offer you guidance for areas you need to work on and set your expectations for the test date. Just a few sessions together online can help get you on the right track to achieve the IELTS speaking band score you need!

I'm available online or on a limited basis in Zurich city. Happy to meet with more than one student at a time if desired or one-on-one. Flexible times -- please feel free to ask.
