The teacher will bring new topics to discuss every week and will prompt the conversation with different stimuli such as questions, requests for opinions, and brief exercises. Although grammar is not a focus of this course, the teacher will signal and correct the main mistakes and will be at the students' disposal in case there is a need to clarify some concepts in order to improve learners' accuracy and confidence while speaking.

After teaching Italian and English for over 20 years — in Italy and Switzerland — to adults, teenagers, migrant students and hospitalised patients, Paola moved to London, where she continued her career while enjoying the city's vibrant and diverse cultural layers. Alongside a Master's degree in Modern Foreign Languages and Literatures, Paola holds a qualification to teach Italian issued by the Italian Ministry of Education, a DITALS I certification from the University for Foreigners of Siena, and a CELTA. Her classes are focused on creating a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, where fun and learning go hand in hand and conversation is at the heart of every lesson. She also enjoys exploring Italian literature with her students — being an avid reader herself — as well as discussing news, music, cinema and culture more broadly.
