Italian Teacher with International Experience & Language Skills (ie. Mandarin, English, Russian, Spanish)

During the past few years I have been working as a professor of English with an online university. My life-learning experience include studying and working in the UK for two years, studying in Russia for six months, and living in China for three years. I consider living in China a life-changing experience for me, full of challenges and rewards! I spent most of my time there in Shenzhen, where I taught both English and Italian, to young learners first and then to teenagers. In addition, I have obtained a Master's Degree in 'Modern Languages and Literatures, and Intercultural Translation', along with the following qualifications: - Cambridge CELTA (Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults), issued by Cambridge ESOL - Certificate in ESOL International CEFR C2 / Proficiency in English, issued by British Institutes - DELE C1 (Diploma of Spanish as a Foreign Language), issued by the Cervantes Institute - TORFL-II (CEFR B2 in Russian Language), issued by Saint Petersburg State University - HSK 5 (CEFR C1 in Mandarin Chinese), issued by the Confucius Institute My teaching approach consists of getting students immersed into the language, by simulating real-life situations according to their personal learning objectives. I see the student as the main focus of the learning process, and myself (the teacher) as a mere guide and advisor.
