About Me
italki teacher since Aug 6, 2020InterestsTravelArtReading
Tireless traveller I have studied and lived in many different countries and always learnt new languages and cultures. I have a bachelour degree in Teaching Foreign Language in Spain and two masters , one in Linguistics and language aquisition in France and a second one in Sami language in Norway. I am very passionate about arts, especially theater, cultures and languages and I am looking forward to meeting students from all around the world!Me as a Teacher
I am a linguist (a language mechanic ) and a teacher with more than 10 years experience in teaching Spanish, French and Romanian as a second language (and a lifelong experience as a learner ). I have a strong dedication for Languages and Teaching and I carried on research about different languages, language acquisition and plurilingualism .
With passion, games, motivation and fun we can rapidly acquire a new language to communicate, to interact and to open the window to new opportunities!My lessons & teaching style
I consider a Language to be as a new pair of shoes that leads you to a multitude of knowledge and adventures. It is context dependent and interaction is at the core of the learning journey.
I am a theater student and two years ago I have started to develop my own methodology of teaching languages through drama techniques. Based on drama techniques and the communicative approach -through games and dialogues set in different context and situations- the lessons will provide you with the necessary tools to rapidly learn and speak the language.
I am looking forward to sharing with you .
Let's discover together the colours of the language !My teaching material

Oana is absolutely wonderful. She is a great teacher and has many different ideas and activities. I feel very comfortable working with her and even feel comfortable with making mistakes. I am learning so much and love having her as a teacher.

I love having lessons with Oana. I am a beginner at Romanian who is about to spend four months in there. Lana employs a lot of role playing and games that require me to speak and listen and respond to language I will need most during my stay—going to a restaurant, buying tickets at a museum, following directions in an unfamiliar city. In just a few weeks, I have learned a huge amount. And Oana is always encouraging, no matter how badly I mangle the language. I highly recommend her.
