Learn the language you actually need, not the one in the textbook

Whether you are preparing for an interview, sitting an exam, moving abroad or finally getting round to learning a language, a course works when it is built around your real level and your real goal. Not around a standard syllabus.

One-to-one online. Individual video lessons, maximum scheduling flexibility and a syllabus built entirely around you: if you need English for work meetings, you will not spend time on holiday vocabulary.

Small group online. Small groups at the same level. Lower cost and plenty of room for conversation, which is the part most people find hardest.

In person. Face-to-face lessons in Viareggio and across Versilia, using the same method as the online courses.

Corporate. Programmes for teams and professionals: business English and French, preparation for international meetings and negotiations, terminology specific to your sector.

• Free level assessment. A first conversation to establish where you are starting from and where you want to get to.
• A course proposal. Duration, frequency and materials, agreed together.
• Lessons and review. Regular progress checks, with the programme adjusted when needed.

I do not only teach the language: I use it every day at work, on technical texts, legal contracts and TV subtitles. I have also taught it in the classroom as an English campus lecturer for AHI International Corporation, and worked as an interpreter on nautical training courses.

That means bringing real English and French into the room — the language people actually use in a meeting, in a work email or in a film.

Write to me with the language you are interested in, your current level if you know it, and your goal. I reply within 24 hours with a tailored proposal.
