Francesca Vella

A BIT ABOUT ME…
Hi, I'm Francesca. I'm originally from Malta but live in Cornwall, UK with my family. I have been teaching in the EFL world for over 20 years and I am very passionate about it. It is very rewarding to see my students succeed and be able to express themselves with confidence and a balance of fluency and accuracy.

I am CELTA and DELTA qualified and hold an MA in English Language Teaching.

A BIT ABOUT MY SESSIONS…
My sessions are bespoke because learning a language is not one-size-fits-all, everyone has different needs and different things they need to work on, so lessons need to be personalized according to one's profile.

My aim is to empower you by giving you the necessary tools to be able to use English in real life 'outside the classroom', so I will be teaching you the language you need to do this successfully. I follow a communicative and student-centered approach. This means that we will focus on verbal interaction (speaking) and on what you want to learn based on your needs and your priorities. After finding out what these are, I will plan my lessons around them.

The vocabulary and topics focused on will be the ones that are relevant to you. This could be related to your work and your interests.

At the end of every session, I will give you constructive feedback so that you are aware of your improvements and what we still need to work on.
