Experience
I started my teaching career 3 years ago in Rome, Italy and I am currently a teacher at Rennert Bilingual, a language institute on 45th st. in NYC. I have experience teaching students of all ages from 8-60+. I tend to focus my lessons on what you need as a speaker. Whether it be help in your class or determining independently what will help you most as a student dealing with grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, conversation or learning how to speak like an American colloquially, we will work comprehensively to have you speaking more fluently in no time!
