Hello! I am Leonilde, an English teacher with a degree in English languages and literature from the "Università Orientale" of Naples in Italy and a Master's degree in Comparative Literature from the Universidad Autonoma of Barcelona.
I am Italian and have lived in the UK for more than ten years so I speak English bilingually and have an excellent level of written and spoken Spanish.
While living in the UK I have taught in different schools and colleges and in the last 8 years I have taught English language and literature, marketing, and finance in different Italian public schools.
During the Covid period, I have been teaching online, acquiring the necessary skills to keep the interest of teenage students during such a difficult period.
Apart from having many years of teaching experience in a variety of classes I have patience and a very clear diction. My teaching style is very focused on the needs of the students and I create effective lesson plans based on the level of the student using my academic background to create an entertaining environment. Each lesson is task-based with specific learning objectives and I present each topic in the context of real life with a focus on grammar and vocabulary.
During class, I only speak in English.
Currently, I have been accepted for a PhD in Comparative Literature, and for this reason, I am looking for a job that allows me to combine study with work.
I can teach English language, literature, and grammar at all levels either in person in Barcelona or online.
I would be delighted to be your English teacher, to help you achieve everything you set your mind to!

Con Leonilde he podido avanzar mucho, sobre todo en la conversación, con clases eminentemente prácticas y con mucho material de apoyo. Ella es una persona muy paciente y comprensiva, haciendo muy cómodas y dinámicas las clases. Sin duda, la recomiendo!! Yo he logrado soltarme y conversar con naturalidad, después de muchos años sin poder hacerlo.
