About Me

I UPDATE MY CALENDAR MONTH BY MONTH
⭐ Full-time language teacher, top-rated with a 5-star rating on Verbling. Read more about me:

👩🏻‍🏫 My name is Elisabetta (Элизабетта /爱丽), I was born and raised in Northern Italy, and I have dual Italian-Argentine citizenship. I am a polyglot and a foreign language teacher.
📚 I am fluent in Italian, Spanish, English, French, and Portuguese, with studies in Foreign Languages, Linguistics, and International Relations. Before becoming a teacher, as you can see, I was a language student for many years, so I can empathize well with the difficulties my students face!
🇬🇧 I have a "Teaching English Online" Certificate from Cambridge English Assessment
👩🏻‍💻 I began teaching offline in 2018 and transitioned to online teaching in 2020. Since then, I have tutored over 350 students worldwide, delivering nearly 4,000 hours of classes!
🌍 I have worked with students of all ages (from 10 to 75), nationalities (from all continents actually), and proficiency levels ranging from A0 to C2. I am skilled in cross-cultural communication and deeply respect and embrace all cultures, also thanks to my diverse experiences abroad (having lived in Ireland, Russia, and currently in Lisbon, Portugal). No matter your background or current level, I am committed to helping you improve and reach your goals!


What I Provide in My Classes:

0️⃣ Your background and current level don’t matter! I’ve tutored students from A0 to C2, and I can assure you that most of my students started as complete beginners. It’s never a problem—in fact, it’s often a fun challenge!

Contrary to popular belief, you don’t need a natural aptitude for languages to learn them. I began each foreign language I speak from scratch, and I believe you can do it too, as long as you’re passionate and consistent in your studies!

✅ Our classes will be tailored to meet your needs and help you achieve your objectives, regardless of your level or goals. Each class is unique, just as every student is different! Lessons are structured to ensure you make progress and learn something new each time.


Our classes will include:
🤓 Grammar: Explanations and exercises;
👂 Listening: Exercises with videos, dialogues, etc.;
📖 Reading: Text comprehension to expand your vocabulary;
🗣️ Speaking: Activities such as role-plays and conversations on various topics.

🎉 We will also have fun while playing interactive games, doing quizzes, and using flashcards
✍️ You will receive some homework as well, which will train your written form and allow you to practice between classes (optional, but strongly recommended)
💡 I will not fail to provide cultural facts
☑️ Patient corrections during each session (with Google Docs) & constructive Feedback

You will receive free learning materials for each session, so there’s no need to purchase textbooks—unless you already have one you'd like to use.


To know more, please book a trial lesson with me! I will see you soon in class. ☺️



IMPORTANT INFO AND CLASS RULES

ℹ️ Class Duration: If I have a lesson following yours, our class will last approximately 57 minutes. This allows me a short break and time to prepare for the next class. Thank you for your understanding!

❗ Cancellation Policy: If you cannot attend a class, please reschedule up to 12 hours in advance, as per Verbling’s rescheduling policies. No refunds will be issued for classes not rescheduled in time.

Late Arrival: If you arrive late, I will wait for you for 15 minutes. After that, the class will be considered a no-show and marked as completed. No refunds will be provided for no-shows.

📅 Booking Schedule: The calendar schedule is updated monthly. Booking lessons more than a month in advance is discouraged.

⏱️ Shorter Sessions: For those with limited time but who still want to work on their language goals, 45-minute classes are available. Please contact me to arrange a session!

🧑🏼‍🤝‍🧑🏿 Group Lessons: I also offer small group lessons. If you want to learn with a friend, partner, or family member, please message me to arrange group classes!

My trial lessons

I encourage you to start your learning journey by booking a trial class. During this session, I will inquire about:

- your current level,
- the motivations driving your study,
- the specific goals you aim to achieve.
If already fluent, you can introduce yourself in the target language.

On my end, I will craft a tailored lesson plan, showcase my teaching style, and provide you with relevant materials and study tips.

The class concludes with dedicated time for your questions.
