Personal Description:

Hi! I'm Ermy. I'm Italian, but I've lived in the UK for the past 5 years and have also travelled a little bit around Europe in the meantime. I've learned 3 languages and speak four fluently (Italian, English, Spanish and French) because I love travellIng, discovering new places, connecting to people and learn something new every day.

My mission is to help lifelong learners to learn the language they love, travel the world and have once in a lifetime experiences. That's why I'm specialised in teaching languages to travellers and globetrotters. If that's you, you've just landed in the right place!

Teaching Experience:

I GOT THE TEACHING-BUG DURING MY YEAR ABROAD.
In 2008, I started giving one-on-one Italian classes to British students at university during my year abroad. After I completed my masters degree, I went on pursuing my passion for teaching in Italy where I taught English language in Italian secondary schools and Italian language to foreign nationals.

I BECAME A QUALIFIED TEACHER IN 2013
I've been teaching up to now in secondary schools, international schools and in other educational organisations. Being a tutor for the past 3 years has been an extremely rewarding experience, but I soon became aware that my learners needed more than just learning grammar and vocabulary to become fluent in the language they were studying. They actually needed the skills, the strategies and also the tools that would get them there.

NOW I AM A LANGUAGE COACH AND HERE'S WHY
At some point I felt that I needed a more efficient way of to teach my learners as there is only so much you can achieve in one hour or so of class. This is why, in 2017 I started studying to become a Language Coach (a qualification awarded by Efficient Language Coaching and accredited by the International Coach Federation). I'm now a certified language coach and my aim is enabling my learners to learn a language in a more efficient and potentially faster way and gain the skills that would allow them to keep that language up independently (aka, also when they are not in class, and also after they finish their course with me!).

Teaching Approach:

I PRACTISE NEUROLANGUAGE COACHING
Neurolanguage coaching is a learning method that applies Neuroscience (which concerns the brain and how it works) and coaching principles to language learning. With Neurolanguage coaching, you (the coachee!) are actually in the driving seat as, through coaching, you're the one who choses what to learn, how and when to learn. Motivation takes top priority.

HOW IT WORKS
You're given the tools to learn the language independently and become a more aware and confident language learner and speaker. This is an active learning method, which flexible, self-directed and completely matches your needs. As a coach, I help you set goals, follow through and achieve what you want to achieve. I leverage on how the brain works to help you learn a language in an enjoyable and potentially faster way, so that you can get to the fun part: feel free to travel and connect with a whole new world!
