Italian tutor teaches students all ages

I am Elisa Begnis, originally from Milano, now attending a PhD in Sociology and Social Research at Alma Mater Studiorum University of Bologna. Due to my research I have been living in Manchester for some months. I would really like to understand the process of learning a foreign language from the point of view of an english-speaker trying to learn italian. I have experience in teaching at university and I also did some private lessons.
