Hello! My name is Alexandra and I am from Los Angeles, California. I live in Florence, Italy and I have 10+ years of experience teaching students from all over the world in both private lessons and group lessons. I've worked as a private teacher and at a school in Florence, Italy. My hobbies are cooking, traveling & learning about new things. My curiosity allows me to ask my students a lot of questions and get them speaking about many different topics.Ik als leerkracht
I am a personable teacher and I love to get to know each student and their needs and wants with English. I am a creative person so I use my creativity in teaching and use a variety of materials to teach. I teach elementary, intermediate, and advanced students in many different skills of English, such as Pronunciation, Grammar, Listening Comprehension, Writing, Speaking, Exam Preparation and more.Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I start by developing a good rapport with each student because it is important for the lessons to feel like a very safe and comfortable place for me and the student. I listen to each student's needs and desires in English, assess level, and make an appropriate plan for them. My lessons are very conversational (the student speaking most of the time) , which allows you to build a lot of confidence!Mijn lesmateriaal

Werkervaring
2013 - 2015
Private English TeacherI offered private and small group lessons to students of all ages (from toddler to 60 years old) out of my home. I had General English, Business English & Test-Prep students. This helped me integrate into the community, to form good working relationships with students and parents, utilize my creativity, & adapt to students of all different ages and English needs.
2015 - 2020
English TeacherI taught children, teenagers and adults General English, Business English & Test Preparation (TOEFL, TOEIC, First, SAT English). I was responsible for private lessons and group lessons. In my private lessons, I was responsible for conducting a thorough needs analysis with each student and creating an individual syllabi tailored to that student's needs and desires for learning English. In group lessons, I was responsible for covering a set number of topics and concepts.
2015 - 2020
CTEFL TrainerIn this school I held 2 positions: English Teacher and CTEFL Trainer. As a CTEFL Trainer I was responsible for training people who wanted to earn a CTEFL Certificate with Via Lingua. We held about 10 1-month 120-hour courses per year and I was responsible for teaching Pedagogy and observing teaching sessions with the trainees where they taught to real students. Following these observations, I conducted post-teaching conferences. I also conducted much of the administrative work and grading.

I highly recommend Alex for English lessons. Her flexibility and patience make learning enjoyable and effective. She creates a comfortable environment where you can discuss anything, which greatly enhances language acquisition. Thanks to her guidance, I feel more confident pursuing job opportunities abroad.

Alex is a very professional tutor who is always great at finding the right activities and exercises to help me develop the English skills I need. The assignments she gives me allow me to practice a lot of appropriate exercises, and the many great expressions and tips she gives me in class help me improve my practice even more. I always feel like I learn a lot from her enthusiasm and good talent, and I am always grateful to her. If someone is thinking about which tutor they want to take a class with in italki, I think they should choose Alex and they will never regret that choice. :)

All lessons with Alexandra have a number of parts - from recent personal news discussion to review of articles/grammar rules and making exercises on them. Transition between the parts is very natural and unnoticeable, so it comes about that the content of an article ensues from the conversation we've hold. It always amazes me, and I always wait for a new lesson with inspiration. Thank you, Alexandra! See you next time!

We discussed the topic of cooking today. Plenty of new words and expressions for me and very engaging video materials. Thank you, Alexandra!

With Alexandra we do two things on each lesson: Discuss our current events and news in life and study something new (articles, videos, grammar topics, textbook units, scientific research papers, global news). Both parts are really valuable: The first part helps to maintain fluency in English, the second - to broaden mind and become a have-a-clue person in large variety of topics. Thank you, Alexandra!

It was so nice to sync with Alexandra on recent activities on both sides and exchange humor and energy about the events. My fluency suffers after every break in speaking English and thus, it is absolutely necessary to practice regularly. Thank you, Alexandra, for giving me the opportunity to do so.
