When it comes to tutor/teach a language it comes natural to link it to it’s culture. Teaching one of the most studied languages in the world which are English & Italian, there has been a major interest in recent years for learners from all over the world to learn this language and it’s culture. In a language you can observe the culture, identity of a country which has influenced different cultures and developments that have brought English & Italian to be a well-established language rich in lexical, stylistically and structurally linguistical context.
For me as a native English/Italian bilingual teacher I use a variety of combinations of approaches to ensure that all students’ needs are met and that the passion for Italian motivates for both tutor and students to excel, celebrating the beauty of learning of a form of communication and interaction. I myself as an English/Italian tutor often follow the communicative approach and the task-based method to ensure students grasp the essential and details of learning.
I want to make sure my students are able to communicate fluently by making progress steadily and improving step by step, day by day in a pace which doesn’t slow them too much or speeds them up too quickly, asking and answering questions, making requests, describing, narrating and comparing, discussing, explaining, debating etc. My approach is learner-centred to motivate students by giving them some control over the learning process and create that interaction between tutor and students that is fundamental for an ideal learning/teaching environment.

I employ a wide range of materials either online or hardcopies, and I like to create my own materials which allow me to meet specific objectives of the students and to analyse in depth the cultural aspects assimilated in the English language itself. I always create a relaxed atmosphere to allow my students to reach their objectives in a comfortable way.

I’m passionate about my work because I love my native language and I also love the fact that people find English so interesting and beautiful. I think learning a foreign language is an exciting and challenging way to travel across a culture while enjoying yourself along the way, especially when it comes to tutor and learn English and it’s linguistic expression which reflects the beauty and history of it’s important heritage known worldwide. To be a tutor of Italian language is to be a tutor of life “a mentor” of it’s beauty in terms of oral and written communication, an enrichment of expression, communication, style and cultural greatness.


I first started teaching just for fun helping out friends, students or people willing to improve their English language skills then I started making a living out of it such as freelance, instructor, tutor and now as a full time teacher/lecturer at university Malaya in Kuala Lumpur – Malaysia. I really enjoy interacting with my students in play role activities, sharing culture, teaching them how to embrace a possess skills to develop language etc. I enjoy both teaching one to one and group class.
1.I learnt a lot in terms of how to approach and handle each student from different background and education, sharing each others culture and making sure each student has passion in learning a new language and topic/subject. 1 Attitude managing/dealing with each student in an appropriate way, being positive, charisma and making sure to have the situation under control
2. Skill abilities in teaching and being understood by the class, applying practical and theoretical methods in order to fully offer a wide range of tools for students to learn.
3. Education Educational background boosts the confidence of knowledge and ensures a good preparation to teach at any level, personal culture enriches a class and especially education gained in western society is a plus in my opinion well renowned and established.
4. Experience Experience matters and makes almost always the difference but in education field it’s not the priority. I have few years experience in teaching and it only helps to improve in time learning and giving back everyday. Promoting at the university where I teach events/projects such as gathering alumni, international language cultural day and promoting the English and Italian language culture in south east asia educational networking.
I am very much interested in this opportunity to teach in your school in such an important international environment, and I believe to have a disciplined and organized approach towards this position as well as being reliable, open-minded self-motivated and flexible. I enjoy being part of an international environment, trying to help the team, fulfill the projects assigned, teach the planned schedule etc. My skills, my personal motivation and academic knowledge along with my experiences and abilities in teaching. I try my best to help out my students, the team to provide a proficient service and reliability.
